The National Assembly’s bureau has formally begun the procedure to replace former Constitutional Council member Bah Oumarou Sanda, who passed away on 7 August 2026.
Bah Oumarou Sanda had served on Cameroon’s Constitutional Council, the body that oversees the constitutionality of laws and regulations. His death has left a vacancy that the Assembly must fill in accordance with the country’s constitutional provisions.
According to the announcement, the Assembly’s bureau has initiated the replacement process, which will involve the nomination of a new candidate and subsequent approval by the Assembly’s members.
The move follows standard protocol for filling seats on the Constitutional Council, ensuring that the institution continues to function with a full complement of members.
