Paul Biya, the current head of state of Cameroon, will seek an eighth term as the country's president.
The Cameroonian head of state remains "the natural candidate of the People's Democratic Rally," Cavaye Yéguié Djibril, the president of the National Assembly, announced on January 23.
"At a time when some are calling for division and rebellion, let us remain united and lucid. Talking about entrusting our country to an unknown devil is irresponsible," he said.
