Paul Biya, 92, Wins 8th Term Amid Protests in Cameroon

Paul Biya, aged 92, has been declared the winner of his eighth presidential term in Cameroon by the Constitutional Council, with 53.7% of the vote. The election results have sparked protests and accusations of manipulation from opposition supporters, particularly Issa Tchiroma Bakari.

Violent clashes erupted in Douala, resulting in four deaths and several injuries. Biya, who has been in power since 1982, faces growing discontent and skepticism over his ability to bring real change to Cameroon despite promises of reform.
