At the time, Paul Biya was the president of Cameroon.

Years later, George Weah became the president of Liberia 🇱🇷, left office, while Paul Biya is still the president of Cameroon.

I get the sense that most think the policy directive alone will exempt Starlink. No. Not by a stretch. The process currently unfolding is procedurally flawed & unconstitutional. A long thread about the law, legal principles, and why it needs to be halted & corrected.🪡🧵
