The post took a dig at Cameroon’s 92-year-old President Paul Biya, who is running for re-election for an eighth term on October 12, 2025, with a video of supporters rallying using the giant statue, highlighting his long absence from the public eye despite recent appearances.
Biya has exemplified a trend of extended leadership in Africa since he came to power in 1982, with constitutional amendments allowing indefinite rule; Freedom House data rates Cameroon as “not free”, citing suppression of opposition.
Replies humorously linked the strategy to aging politicians in Nigeria (such as Tinubu, 73) and Uganda (Deputy Prime Minister Moses Ali, 86), reflecting criticism in the region of dynastic or gerontological governance without term limits.
