A viral TikTok video has taken the internet by storm, showing angry Cameroonian youths tearing down a campaign billboard of 92-year-old President Paul Biya. The video, posted by a user on the platform, has sparked widespread reactions online and ignited conversations about political fatigue, generational anger, and the urgent call for change in Cameroon.

“Tear It, Tear It!” — The Chant of Frustration
In the background of the video, loud chants of “Tear it! Tear it!” can be heard as a group of young men physically dismantle a towering billboard bearing the image of President Biya. The video, which has garnered thousands of views and comments within hours, paints a picture of a rising tide of dissatisfaction among Cameroon’s youth who are increasingly calling for an end to Biya’s over four-decade-long rule.
TikTok Reactions: A Country Tired of Silence
The comments on TikTok reflect a mix of outrage, defiance, and painful hope:
• @maxxthedon wrote: “These youths are tired. Cameroon needs new leadership!”
• - @brendacoco added: “Imagine being ruled by someone older than your grandfather. Enough is enough!”
• @lilnoel237 sarcastically said: “Statues to campaign, now billboards to the ground. Cameroon is awake.”
A Generational Uprising?
This incident follows closely after another controversial moment where President Biya reportedly sent statues of himself and his wife to a campaign event, sparking mockery and anger across social media. With increasing economic hardship, youth unemployment, and political stagnation, many young Cameroonians see this act of billboard destruction as a symbolic break from the past.
Sele Media Africa’s Take
Sele Media Africa sees this moment not just as a political outburst, but a cultural and generational cry for transformation. From statues at political rallies to youth-led protests both online and offline, Cameroon may be standing at the edge of a historic political turning point.nt
