On Sunday, October 12, Cameroon is holding presidential elections, with the current president Paul Biya, at the age of 92, as the favorite for a new term. Although he has been urged to step down, Biya has continued to lead since 1982, and the opposition accuses the electoral commission of partisanship. The economic crisis and social conflicts are affecting voter participation, and young people feel marginalized. Biya promises improvements, but criticism of him is growing, including from his daughter.
