CAMEROONIAN PRESIDENT PAUL BIYA OUSTED IN BLOODLESS COUP AFTER DECADES IN POWER

In a historic and peaceful military coup, Cameroon’s President Paul Biya has been removed from office, bringing an end to one of Africa’s longest and most entrenched authoritarian regimes.
The stunning announcement came via national broadcast as a military spokesperson declared, “President Paul Biya has been removed from office.” There was no violence, only an emotional outpouring from citizens long weary of his nearly 50-year rule.
Behind the carefully planned transition were Brigadier General Arnaud Ambassy and Sergeant Didier Ekulay, who executed the takeover with surgical precision—replacing guards, seizing command centers, and securing the capital in a matter of hours.
The coup, praised for its discipline and restraint, has already begun to uncover disturbing revelations. Opened presidential archives reveal that billions of dollars were siphoned off into French bank accounts, and that French diplomats allegedly helped Biya manipulate elections in exchange for resource access.
The revelations have sparked widespread anger toward France and international institutions seen as complicit in Cameroon’s long-term impoverishment.
The new military leadership has pledged transparency and national renewal. Though the next phase remains uncertain, many Cameroonians are experiencing a collective emotional release—hope for dignity, sovereignty, and a government that finally serves its people.
