        Voters ? No one likes that old hag. Not even people from his family. He has been rigging elections since day one . No one voted him in power in the first place. However, a story has an end . Time up Biya !

        In Africa the president has got so much power they are envied by most despots. Their power surpass monarchs, parliements, upper houses, prime mimisters, even dictactors all cimbined. The reason why they act with such impunity.
