Paul Biya, the octogenarian second president of Cameroon has been power for forty-six years (ten years as Prime Minister, which is the second highest office of the land, and thirty-six years as the President ---the highest office of the land), making him Africa's and the world's longest-serving head of state who is a non-royal. He is the caretaker of a six-decade-old system put in place by France before it allowed Cameroon to become a member of the United Nations Organization on January 01, 1960 by granting it its so-called independence, a system made up of a Cameroonian political establishment of French lackeys and their French overlords that effectively operates like a mafia to safeguard France's lopsided dealings and interest in Cameroon and the rest of Francophone Africa.

The French-backed political mafia that Paul Biya is presiding over has created the most efficient election-rigging machinery in the world and the most undemocratic pluralistic country on earth with close to three hundred political parties, ninety-nine plus percent of which are appendages of the system. The system created these pseudo-parties with the purpose of validating his electoral charades that are always backed by the foreign powers whose interest he is serving.

In this pseudo-democracy where less than 10% of the voting population gets to participate in elections, where Paul Biya does not even bother to campaign, and where political lethargy and political apathy runs high, a culture of deception is mushrooming that would soon snuff out what is left of the progressive Cameroonian values that made the country prominent in the last century.

In this account, Janvier Tchouteu takes the reader hand-in-hand in the journey for an insight into the shackled heart of Africa and the rule of an octogenarian who hates the people of the country he has been misruling to serve the interests of his puppet masters.
