Cameroon Soccer Cup: Paul Biya hands over duties...

Popular Presidential Candidate KAH WALLA: Did she scare anyone?

 

Paul Biya, the seventy-seven year old president who has ruled Cameroon since 1982 has gradually been handing over traditionally presidential duties to government officials. Is he trying to send a message that he no longer has any interest in governing the country?

Late former president Ahidjo shakes hands with Mr Biya while late S.T. Muna and Pa Foncha look on.

Prime minister Philemon Yang presided over the prestigious Cameroon Cup soccer final in which FOVU of Baham in the Western Region beat ASTRES football club from the Littoral region. Mr Yang carried himself with dignity and brought a fresh take on what had become a stale finale.

It should be recalled that the finalist for the Cup of Cameroon soccer competition have been known for over five months now, but the finals were delayed because they could not fit in the president's timetable. This proves once more to the world, there really can be a Cameroon without Paul Biya.

With Mr Biya's regime broadsided by presidential candidate KAH WALLA, and the ruling CPDM presidential election campaign kick-off drawing a very weak response from  the public, maybe Mr Biya's spin doctors wanted to avoid an embarrasing showing at the Ahmadou Ahidjo stadium.

If Ms WALLA's candidacy is a cause for concern such that for the first time in fifty-one years of the Cameroon national soccer championship where the sitting head of state has never been absent until this year, then surely Ms WALLA stands a very good chance of moving into Etoudi next year.

This is one more victory for Ms KAH WALLA.
