Le pr\u00e9sident camerounais Paul Biya, chef d’\u00c9tat le plus \u00e2g\u00e9 au monde, a annonc\u00e9 lundi que des \u00e9lections l\u00e9gislatives et locales se tiendraient le 7 f\u00e9vrier. Il s’agit du premier scrutin depuis la r\u00e9\u00e9lection, l’an dernier, du dirigeant de longue date \u2014 une r\u00e9\u00e9lection contest\u00e9e.<\/p>\n
Paul Biya, \u00e2g\u00e9 de 93 ans, est au pouvoir depuis 1982. Sa r\u00e9\u00e9lection a \u00e9t\u00e9 rejet\u00e9e par l’opposition et a donn\u00e9 lieu \u00e0 des manifestations r\u00e9prim\u00e9es dans le sang par les autorit\u00e9s.<\/p>\n
Ces nouvelles \u00e9lections interviennent dans un climat politique tendu, marqu\u00e9 par la r\u00e9pression de l’opposition et l’inertie des dirigeants au sommet de l’\u00c9tat.<\/p>\n
L’annonce a \u00e9t\u00e9 faite par d\u00e9cret, lu \u00e0 la radio publique, apr\u00e8s deux reports successifs du scrutin.<\/p>\n
Le pays est dans l’attente d’un remaniement gouvernemental annonc\u00e9 il y a pr\u00e8s d’un an, ainsi que de la nomination d’un vice-pr\u00e9sident \u2014 une fonction r\u00e9tablie lors d’une r\u00e9forme constitutionnelle en avril \u2014 qui serait appel\u00e9 \u00e0 succ\u00e9der \u00e0 Paul Biya en cas de d\u00e9c\u00e8s de ce dernier.<\/p>\n
Les fr\u00e9quents d\u00e9placements de Paul Biya \u00e0 l’\u00e9tranger alimentent les d\u00e9bats sur son \u00e9tat de sant\u00e9 et sa capacit\u00e9 \u00e0 diriger le pays.<\/p>\n
Fin ao\u00fbt, Paul Biya est rentr\u00e9 \u00e0 Yaound\u00e9 apr\u00e8s avoir pass\u00e9 plus de deux mois \u00e0 Gen\u00e8ve, en Suisse, ce qui a suscit\u00e9 de vives critiques de la part de l’opposition.<\/p>\n
Le mois dernier, les autorit\u00e9s ont suspendu le Front pour le salut national du Cameroun (FSNC), le parti d’Issa Tchiroma Bakary, candidat de l’opposition battu lors de l’\u00e9lection pr\u00e9sidentielle.<\/p>\n
Issa Tchiroma Bakary s’est exil\u00e9 en Gambie apr\u00e8s s’\u00eatre proclam\u00e9 vainqueur du scrutin et avoir appel\u00e9 ses partisans \u00e0 d\u00e9fendre sa \u00ab victoire \u00bb, ce qui a d\u00e9clench\u00e9 des manifestations.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
