Cameroon high court rejects petition to annul 9 Oct polls
Cameroon’s Supreme Court, which is currently serving as the country’s constitutional Council, has rejected an opposition plea for the cancellation of the October 9 presidential election.
The 8-count petition was filed by eight of the 22 presidential candidates that competed against incumbent President Paul Biya.
They claimed that there were widespread irregularities, multiple voting, among other things in the recent polls which saw a low turn out of the 7 million Cameroonian registered voters.
But as Roland Tsapi reports for WADR from Cameroon's commercial capital,Douala, the country’s Supreme Court is not convinced with the opposition candidates’ argument.
