RE: My thoughts on politics, social media, and the upcoming elections in Cameroon
I don't know much about Cameroon. Maybe I haven't read a lot these days. Has the system of government changed? How comfortable is Cameroonians with the longest-sitting president PAUL BIYA
Well, personally, I can’t speak for everyone. But generally, people are rarely comfortable with a long-serving government. That is clear.
At this moment, if you are asking me, I’m not among those calling for an immediate change in the system of government. I have my reasons, though, to be fair, they are based on predictions and logic, not certainty.
If the government were to change suddenly right now, I foresee a period of instability, which could last longer than expected and might not be good for the country.
Personally, I would prefer a transitional period, followed by fresh elections. That way, the population can freely choose who they want to lead. This approach might also reduce the likelihood of disputes or unrest.
If people are rarely comfortable with the system, why has there been no change till now? Anyway, don't know how the system of government run over there, but at some point many of us thought maybe the people are comfortable or the government decision supercede the civilian interest. at some point n't kno know of elections are fair over there in comparison to my country's system, making me very apathetic to politics
