LIBREVILLE, Cameroon — The former President of the National Assembly of Cameroon, Cavayé Yéguié Djibril, passed away on Wednesday, just weeks after the death of the former President of the Senate, Marcel Niat Njifenji, who died on April 11, 2026, in Yaoundé, local media reported.
According to SBB, Djibril’s death came shortly after his departure from the chair he held for over three decades. His passing signifies the end of an era at the apex of the Cameroonian state.
The former president of the lower house of Parliament died at his home in Mada — Kolkoch, in the Far North region, at the age of 86. Officials commented on the matter. This death occurs against the backdrop of the recent passing of Marcel Niat Njifenji, the former Senate President, who died in Yaoundé at the age of 92.
The organization of the official funeral ceremonies for these two close collaborators of President Paul Biya aims not only to honor their memory but also to remind of the importance of their institutional heritage and commitment to the Republic.
