- Cameroon’s President Paul Biya is back at 92 years old and after 42 years in power. In July, he announced on X that he’ll be running again in the October elections. If he wins, it will be his eighth consecutive term, keeping him in office until he’s 99.
That would make him Africa’s second-longest-serving head of state, after Equatorial Guinea’s Teodoro Obiang, who’s ruled for 43 years.
So, how has Biya stayed in power for so long? Known for his sharp political instincts, Biya has mastered Cameroon’s political chessboard. His strategy has combined control, timing, and the ability to weather opposition and crises.
In his announcement, Biya told Cameroonians, “Rest assured that my determination to serve you is commensurate with the serious challenges facing us.”
But as the 92-year-old steps into another campaign, many are asking: is this a sign of steady leadership or proof that real political change in Cameroon remain...

- Deep inside East Africa, on a territory grabbed from the Nandi tribe by the British colonial government, was where founders of European Zionism fixed their gaze some 120 years ago to ponder on a plan for the creation of a Jewish homeland.
The plan sought to carve out an autonomous Jewish territory that would have been bigger in size than the area later approved by the United Nations partition plan of 1947 that created a Jewish state, according to historians.
More than a century later, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has never hidden his ambitions to ethnically cleanse Gaza, with a number of African nations reportedly suggested as likely destinations for resettlement of forcefully displaced Palestinians - including Sudan, Somalia, South Sudan, and Uganda, although the governments of these African states have denied any involvement.
