Network disruptions across the country
We were informed by our colleagues in Cameroon that their presidential elections took place on 12 October 2025.
Since the elections there have been serious network disruptions across the country. This is expected to continue until the results are published, which may take as long as two weeks.
Please therefore expect delays in communications regarding Cameroon. Our local colleagues have however assured us that they are doing their best to stay connected and will respond promptly, through all available channels, where possible, during this period.
