1100 days ago, flourishingAfrica began protesting the dictatorship of Paul Biya in Cameroon. As one of the longest serving dictators in Africa, Paul Biya has imposed himself on Cameroonians through military rule and sham elections. A man who is over 80 years old now, he has clung to power for almost as long as Robert Mugabe of Zimbabwe. Biya's tenure has been marked by the stifling of the economic potential of the country and the orchestration of widespread corruption. He has become the law of the land as he changes the constitution at will to perpetrate his years of misrule. He has demoralized Cameroonians so much that many are now resigned to their fate. However, we must not stop protesting this misrule. Cameroon deserves better.
