Health of nonagenarian Paul Biya declared a matter of national security and ‘strictly prohibited’
Health of Paul Biya, 91, declared matter of national security and any debate prohibited after denial that he has diedCameroonian authorities have banned discussions about the health of the president, Paul Biya, after the latest round of speculation about his prolonged failure to appear in public.
The directive follows an awkward denial by the government spokesperson René Sadi earlier this week of rumours that Biya had died either in a Paris hospital or in Geneva. The Cameroonian ambassador to France also added that the president was in good health in Geneva. Rumours of Biya’s death swirl in the media intermittently, fuelled by the frail-looking president’s regular absence from Cameroon and the public eye for long periods.
