‘’You can still hear tear gas canisters being fired by police. Protesters here have also thrown stones at police. I asked some of the people that came out to protest, they told me that they believe that their candidate, Issa Tchiroma Bakary, won the Cameroon presidential election for 2025. But this victory, according to them, has been stolen’’

You see, the youth are out to reclaim their votes that were stolen. I agree with them. We can clearly see that Issa Tchiroma Bakary won the election. But the government denies that.

Tensions have been rising in Cameroon since the release of preliminary results that put incumbent President Paul Biya ahead of opposition leader Issa Tchiroma.

Biya, 92, has ruled Cameroon since 1982 and has officially won another term - even though he has become extremely unpopular in this central African country.

‘’Frankly, people are not happy. And they're right. Because we have been suffering for 43 years. It's not going well. Children are suffering. Educated youth have no jobs. We can't eat in Cameroon. We can't get treatment. We are fed up’’

More than two-thirds of Cameroonians are under the age of 30. Many young people are unemployed and have no prospects for the future. Some experts believe that these protests could spread now that President Biya's new term of office has been announced.
