    Yaoundé, Cameroon – The Secretary General of the ruling Cameroon People’s Democratic Movement (CPDM), Jean Nkuete, has reaffirmed the party’s unwavering support for 91-year-old President Paul Biya as its candidate for the upcoming 2025 presidential elections. Speaking amidst heightened political debate and mounting opposition, Nkuete underscored the party’s readiness to safeguard peace and stability during the electoral process.

    Nkuete’s remarks follow statements by key government ministers, including Communication Minister René Emmanuel Sadi, Higher Education Minister Jacques Fame Ndongo, and Labor Minister Grégoire Owona, all of whom stressed that Biya’s right to seek re-election is enshrined in both the nation’s constitution and CPDM party regulations.

    The announcement comes as opposition voices grow louder, bolstered by criticisms from influential clergy members. These critics have raised concerns about Biya’s advanced age, perceived stagnation in national development, systemic corruption, and the social challenges facing Cameroon after more than four decades of his rule.

    Jean Nkuete acknowledged the intensifying political engagement across the country, particularly as debates over Biya’s candidacy heat up. He denounced what he described as “hateful, diabolical, and misleading speeches” aimed at discrediting the President, the CPDM, and institutions overseeing the electoral process.

    “This upsurge in verbal attacks and smears is part of a calculated effort to destabilize and demonize both the party and its National President, His Excellency Paul Biya,” Nkuete stated.

    Political commentators have described the CPDM’s confirmation of Biya’s candidacy as a definitive yet unsurprising move. The announcement addresses lingering questions among Cameroonians divided between calls for change and support for continuity.

    Nkuete warned that the 2025 elections are likely to diverge from previous polls, given the increasing number of citizens openly advocating for regime change. Despite this, he expressed confidence in the CPDM’s ability to counter any threats to its dominance.

    “The Cameroon People’s Democratic Movement remains vigilant and fully prepared to thwart all attempts to tarnish the image of our institutions, disrupt social cohesion, or jeopardize the Republic’s stability,” Nkuete declared.

    Addressing criticism from religious leaders who have publicly opposed Biya’s potential re-election bid, Nkuete reiterated that Cameroon is a secular state. He called for respect for diverse political opinions within this framework, stressing the importance of peaceful coexistence despite differing viewpoints.

    As Cameroon prepares for what could be a contentious election year, the CPDM’s position reflects both its resolve to retain power and its awareness of the growing demand for political reform.
