Paul Biya’s Health: Government Prohibits Media Discussions
Cameroon’s government has issued a ban on media discussions regarding President Paul Biya’s health amidst growing rumors about his condition.
The 91-year-old president, who has ruled Cameroon for over 41 years, has not made any public appearances since early September 2024, sparking widespread speculation about his well-being.
The government has labeled discussions about Biya’s health as a matter of national security, warning that anyone violating this order will face legal consequences.
The directive mandates regional governors to monitor media outlets, including social networks, for any violations.
This move comes after Biya missed several high-profile events, further fueling concerns.
However, officials have reassured the public that Biya is in “excellent health” and attending to his duties while in Geneva.
