Cameroon's President Paul Biya, the world's oldest serving ruler, secured an eighth term in office on Monday (October 27), vote results showed, as the main opposition challenger who has also claimed victory reported gunfire near his home.
Biya, 92, won 53.66% of the vote, against 35.19% for his former ally, Issa Tchiroma Bakary, the Constitutional Council said. A new seven-year term could keep the veteran leader in power until he is nearly 100.
Opposition protesters have clashed with security forces repeatedly over the past week after partial results suggested Biya was on course to win the October 12 vote.
There was no immediate comment on the result from the government, which has rejected opposition accusations of irregularities.
