President Paul Biya Of Cameroon PAUL BIYA, PRESIDENT and HEAD OF STATE of Cameroon clocks 90 years of age today February 13, 2023. What Grace and gift of life! But wait a moment. PAUL BIYA came to this world on the 13th day of February 1933. Little wonder for the Grace upon his life. In numerology, the sacred number 13 is considered to be very karmic. It is associated with the divine, and is said to bring good luck and prosperity to those who embrace it.

President Paul Biya Of Cameroon Municipal Updates Daily  If there is something which has made the President of The Republic, Paul Biya, a reference among other African leaders, then it is his ability to remain compose, focus and yet alert even in the midst of the most difficult of situations. This approach is among the many reasons many say, the Head of State , has remained  different even as a civil  servant before  God raised him to the pinnacle of the nation in 1982.

According to the chauffeurs, apart from being forced at gun point to cough up huge sums to satisfy their ever increasing hunger for money, the soldiers stationed along that road have been calling them names and using hate language on them. We pay more than 30.000FCFA each to these soldiers per day from Bamenda to EKOK. Just from Bamenda town to Mile 90 Nsongwa, a distance of less than 4KMs, there are eight security checkpoints and we spend 8000FCFA each every blessed day. In Bali,they are two control points and we drop 2000FCFA each. After 2pm, they will tell you it's a new team meaning we still have to give money, this is really bad,  said Yanick, a driver. Cars G
