Cameroon Approves Vice President Role as Paul Biya Shapes His Successor | Firstpost Africa | N18G


Cameroon has approved a constitutional amendment to reintroduce the role of vice president for the first time in over five decades. The position will be appointed directly by President Paul Biya and will automatically take over in the event of his exit from office, removing the need for immediate elections. Supporters say the move ensures stability, but critics warn it concentrates power in the presidency. With Biya in power since 1982, the decision has intensified questions over succession, control, and the future of political transition in Cameroon.
