Recommendations for a peaceful outcome
in the news: Afrik News on October 4, 2011In a piece for Afrik News, Landry Signé a Banting Fellow at CDDRL writes about Cameroon's upcoming election on October 9 and the prospects for a peaceful outcome. Signé argues that Cameroon has remained an anchor of stability in the Central African Region and disputed elections could lead to instability similar to the experience in Cote d'Ivoire. With a divided opposition competing against the 29-year rule of President Paul Biya, Signé emphasizes the importance of free, fair, and transparent elections monitored by outside observers to mitigate the risk of post-election conflict.
