The President of Cameroon is the oldest person currently leading a country. His name is Paul Biya. He is 91 years old.
Back in early September, Biya left his home country to visit Europe. He told people it would be a brief stay. But that was two months ago. He still has not come back home.
Nobody knows exactly where he is or why he has stayed away for so long. This has caused a lot of worry and rumors back in Cameroon.
Some people are wondering who is actually running the country while he is gone. The government has tried to calm people down. They say the president is doing fine and is just resting.
Even with those claims, the lack of information has people talking. When the leader of a country disappears from public view for this long, it usually makes citizens nervous. For now, the world is still waiting to see when he will return to his office.
