The Union for Change led by Anicet Ekane has announced a meeting for this Saturday, September 13, at the esplanade of the Yaoundé Omnisports Stadium, during which the opposition's "Consensus Candidate" will be presented to the entire national and international community.
The event will feature the official presentation of the opposition's "consensus candidate," chosen to challenge incumbent President Paul Biya in the October 12 presidential election.
This meeting, expected to be a key moment in the election campaign, aims to demonstrate the unity of several opposition parties around a single standard-bearer.
The national and international community is invited to witness this strategic political turning point in a context marked by internal divisions, controversial disqualifications and institutional maneuvers.
But, according to Esbi Media , a crucial question remains unanswered: will the sub-prefect of Yaoundé 5 grant authorisation for the holding of this public event?
In a tense political climate, this decision could have consequences for the rest of the campaign and the unifying dynamic that the opposition intends to establish.
Public opinion is therefore holding its breath as this decisive meeting approaches, which could redraw the political balance in the final stretch before the presidential election.
