Cameroon’s Paul Biya, who is the world’s oldest leader at the age of 92, has been president of the Central African nation for 43 years.
Not content with this milestone, Biya is seeking an eighth term in office in elections on Sunday.
If successful, and following another seven year term, he’d be just a few months shy of 100 when his presidency ends.
