Cameroonians Hope for Presidential Address Tonight Despite Cancellation of National Day Celebrations

Would president Paul Biya address the nation ahead of the celebration of national day tomorrow 20th of May? This is the general expectation of many Cameroonians.
To those who hold this school of thought, they argue it is not a tradition in Cameroon for the President to address the nation on the eve of the national day celebration but the context this year 2020 warrants an address that can galvanise Cameroonians to stand against the coronavirus pandemic.
Since the outbreak of coronavirus in Cameroon on the 6th of March 2020, President Paul Biya, many say has been absent on the scene and the frontline to fight against the spread of the virus.

Addressing the nation on the eve of national day to some Cameroonians by President Paul Biya will not be possible.

To those who think so, the president has been participating in the fight against the pandemic through his members of government.
As the countdown narrows to May 20th, many have opted to wait and see what will happen tonight.
