Cameroon opposition candidate, Maurice Kamto, has claimed victory in the presidential election, declaring yesterday that ‘we have achieved our goal’. Greeted by screams from his supporters as he made the announcement, Kamto, who leads the Movement for the Rebirth of Cameroon (MRC), called on President Paul Biya to hand over power peacefully.

“I invite the outgoing president to organise a peaceful way to transfer power,” he told a news conference in the capital Yaounde, giving no results to justify his claim. The election was widely expected to extend the rule of Biya, one of Africa’s last multi decade leaders who have held power for 36 years. “My mission was to take a penalty. I did it and I scored,” Kamto said to chants of “freedom” by jubilant supporters in a courtyard.

He offered no evidence to justify his claim to have won. Minister of Territorial Administration Paul Atanga Nji said on Sunday that only the Constitutional Council would be allowed to announce results, and that any form of challenge to the verdict would “not be tolerated”. Six million voters went to the polls to elect president against a backdrop of unprecedented violence in the country’s English-speaking regions.

Biya, 85, faces an attempt by the opposition parties to forge a unified front under Maurice Kamto, leader of the Movement for the Rebirth of Cameroon (MRC). Biya has been in power since 1982, making him one of Africa’s longest-serving rulers.

Hmmm

African mentality and all these are just for their pockets. God will deliver us one-day.

Chai... They may arrest him.

MKO Abiola comes to mind

Meanwhile,

Africa/Blackman is not cursed. The problem is the difficulty in changing our thought process. When you have a faulty thinking process, it will lead to problems. Transformation starts with the mind

African rulers and there insatiable want for power... useless...

thunder scatter Buhari Insha'Allah

Nawao.

Oga Biya,did you forget something in that palace?

That's what power does, it intoxicate some. That's why I will forever praise Ebele Jonathan, though he too doesn't want to accept defeat then. All the same, I pray for Cameroon to be liberated from this man called Biya.

Paul Biya, 36 years as President or as a King

He still wants more despite being 85 years old


Oh Africa

Olódo too full nairaland

Better don't kill yourself like that of MKO
Look before you leap

the man Biya is an example of how evil the heart of man can be,after being handed power by an ailing Ahmadou Ahidjo in the 80's he has refused to let go chasing the latter out of the country where he later died in France .he murdered many political enemies and still held on to power
The Cameroonians should come together and stone that man out of office.

They should give him Mugabe treatment na. There must be a very untapped reasons God created this Africa. Everything is just strange to the core.

You just repeated your self by quoting the first line...... When a man is cursed it the mind /thought process that gets affected, in which way you look at it that curse seems evident. But still stand to be corrected

Things are going on in Cameroon, serious violence there. World Press is overlooking the story.

Africans with lust for power is entangled in our blood and mentality. Don't we have it here in Nigeria where a senator wants to continue to be in that seat for over 10yrs now forgetting that there are people in his constituency who are also capable of being in that position. Black man with black sense

I commend Jonathan for calling Buhari but I will never talk about praising him for accepting defeat. He had no machinery to fight even if he wanted to reject the result. The powers that be will crush him, even a more powerful Obasanjo labored in vain when he tried to anchor the third time agenda.

Nigeria is still better and exposed than some African countries, there are some things that can’t happen in Nigeria. Even tho we are still in the shackles of self inflicted slavery by our politicians

Atiku should emulate this, if not he is wasting his time thinking of free and fair election.

exactly what I have been wondering. You never hear any news about Cameroon on CNN or other Western media networks despite the civil war that's been happening there for months. But yeah, I think it's because it's in fact a puppet state of France.

Greedy African leaders!

Power is Taken. Not given.

ATIKU WILL ALSO DECLEAR HIMSELF PRESIDENT ELECT AFTER LOSING TO ATIKU.
