Cameroonians on Sunday went to polls to re-elect their 85-year-old president to a seventh term amid a tense backdrop of spiraling violence and unrest in the north and southwest of the country. Paul Biya has been ruling Cameroon since 1982.

What's this thing about African leaders and power?

85 yrs old?

I give up. Even me about to type something smart,is even supporting the APC and Buhari. So what is the difference between myself and Biya's supporters?

If you are a member of the APC, or support Buhari. Just look at story and thruway face. We have no locus standi to condemn this man.

We are COMPLICIT.

The BLACK RACE is TRULY CURSED!

He’s been ruling since 1982

There's a different between a lively old president and a lifeless old dullard.

I think Africa is cursed...

They’ve gone far in counting votes, and there’s strong indication he’ll win again

Oga biya and buhari na brothers. What has he done for Cameroon after over 30 years ?

Africa is not cursed. The pioneer leaders set a very bad trend.

Africa is not cursed.

We are only

1. Mentally lazy
So, we dont think and plan.
We rush into doing what we see the Whiteman do, without first of all, laying the foundations he has laid.

2. Misunderstood Education
Education is a tool in problem solving.
Education equips people with abilities to become problem solvers.
Here, our education is seen as a shortcut to getting a job
and once we get job, we get money

3. Misunderstood Money
If you take away goods and services, money becomes useless.
Money only has value when you have goods and services.
And wherever you have goods and services, money will will come naturally.
Money is a shadow of goods delivered and services rendered.

Money is a reward for solutions delivered.
Africans want money without delivering solutions

The Cure
1. Responsibility
Let us take responsibility for our nations.
America is built by Americans, Chinese are building China
Only Nigerians can build Nigeria.
Only Cameroonians can build Cameroon.

2. See Education As A Tool
If our schools are not imparting knowledge to our children
and developing their problem solving skills, then such schools should be shut down.
Ability to speak phonetics like Queen Elizabeth is not the proof of education.
Educated people are problem solvers. QED

3. Money Does Not Solve Problems
Every problem on the earth is solved by someone.
Money is just one way of paying for solutions to our needs.
Here is the real deal:
for me to have money to pay you for solutions which you provide for me,
I must have provided solutions also out which i must have been paid.

Any money gotten outside of fulfilling a need must have come through lying, cheating, stealing, begging, borrowing and what have you.
This is why Africa is full of crimes and corruption.

Conclusion
Once we take responsibility for our nations,
and our schools become where people are prepared for problem solving
and we become problem solvers,
Africa Will rise and shine.

Africans do not need assassins, we need a mindset reorientation.
