Paul Biya made a post-election speech thanking Cameroonians for putting their confidence in him by re-electing him for the umpteenth time as president. This speech demonstrates that the man is delusional. Having forced himself on Cameroonians through a sham election which has been widely denounced, he shamelessly addressed the people in an effort to legitimize his loot. The irony is that at the time he was making his speech, his soldiers were out in the streets of the country terrorizing the people. The international community should cite Biya as a terrorist. The United States Ambassador to Cameroon took the first step by noting that the Biya regime is currently illegal because it came to power through massive fraud. Now, the United States should follow that up by not recognizing the regime.
