As the Cameroon People’s Democratic Movement (CPDM) celebrates its 40th anniversary, one notable absence stands out – its traditional uniform. Over the years, the party has gradually replaced its distinct uniform with that of Paul Biya, its long-serving chairman.

This anniversary celebration, however, aimed to introduce the party’s new generation of supporters to its essence and values. However, what stands out in this year’s celebrations is a clear shift: the CPDM has come to symbolise Paul Biya, and Paul Biya represents the CPDM. The uniform worn by CPDM members across the nation on March 24 prominently featured only images of Paul Biya.

Extinction of the Flames

The official CPDM attire traditionally displayed a flame, a symbol that has now been replaced with images of Paul Biya. For decades, party members have referred to President Paul Biya as the “natural candidate” of the CPDM, suggesting a lifelong commitment — “until death do us part.”

Biya, at 92 years old, has served as the president of Cameroon for 42 years, outlasting the CPDM, which transformed from the CNU on March 24, 1985.

Biya as the CPDM Candidate

As celebrations unfold across the country, CPDM members are rallying behind Biya, calling for him to run as the party’s candidate in the upcoming presidential election. While the election is set for October, Paul Biya has yet to officially declare his candidacy, unlike other contenders.

In Garoua III, CPDM militants view the upcoming presidential election as a time to reap the rewards of their efforts, but they emphasize that preparation — or “sowing” — is key. Gabriel Mbairobe, the CPDM’s permanent delegate to Benoué and Minister of Agriculture and Rural Development, has been instrumental in mobilizing party members, showing strong support and pledging a decisive victory for Biya.

Meanwhile, in Moulvoudaye, Mayo-Kani North, militants also demonstrated their unwavering support for Biya. “We want everyone to feel involved and committed to the successful running of our party,” said Ahmadou Haman, president of the Mayo-Kani North CPDM section.

According to Haman, the party must ensure complete mobilization for a resounding victory for the CPDM candidate. “Since 2013, the opposition has dominated. Today, it is running out of steam. It’s time for the CPDM to assert itself once and for all,” he added.
