Cameroonians went to the polls on Sunday, 12 October 2025, where opposition leader Issa Tchiroma Bakary emerged victorious, securing the presidential seat in the country’s latest election.
The Cameroonian electoral commission, Elecam, is yet to publish the results. According to the electoral timeline, the outcome should be confirmed by 26 October, following the constitutional council review.
Tchiroma urged the 92-year-old President Paul Biya to accept the people’s decision and “honour the truth of the ballot box.”
