Cavaye Yeguie Djibril, a senior member
of the ruling CPDM crime syndicate, the Cameroon People’s Democratic Movement,
was re-elected the country’s House Speaker of National Assembly on Thursday.
During an elective plenary
sitting of the House in the capital, Yaounde, Djibril was re-elected with 118
votes and there were 20 void votes.
Born in 1940, Djibril has been
the president of Cameroon’s National Assembly since 1992, making him the
longest serving house speaker of the country since independence in 1960.
Djibril will preside over the
parliament until September when fresh parliamentary and municipal elections are
expected to hold in Cameroon.
One of his main tasks, during his
brief tenure, is to ensure parliament comes up with a blueprint to de-escalate
the armed conflict in Southern Cameroons now known as the Federal Republic of
Ambazonia where restoration forces are fighting to create an independent
nation.
