Cameroon presidential election: Football star Mohamed Salah appears on registered voters list

Spread the love

As Cameroon held presidential elections on Sunday, the face of Egyptian football star Mohamed Salah, appeared on the list of registered voters at the Ngaoundéré III polling station.

After some fact-checking, several media outlets have confirmed that this image does indeed appear on the official site of Elecam, the body responsible for organizing the elections.

This coincidence has sparked plenty of laughter online, but it also reignited concerns about the reliability of Cameroon’s electoral lists.

The country began counting votes on Sunday after the presidential election in which incumbent Paul Biya, the world’s oldest ruler at 92, is widely expected to extend his 43-year grip on power.
