Cameroon's National Assembly has approved a constitutional amendment to reinstate the position of Vice-President, a role that was abolished in 1984. This significant political development, approved on December 22, 2023, aims to enhance the functioning of the executive branch and ensure a smoother transition of power. The reintroduction of the Vice-Presidential office is seen as a move to strengthen governance structures within the Central African nation. The amendment will now proceed to the Senate for further deliberation and approval before becoming law.
