YAOUNDE (Reuters) -Cameroon's security forces fired tear gas on Tuesday to disperse opposition party supporters protesting in the capital Yaounde and the northern city of Garoua, as tensions rise over the outcome of the October 12 presidential election.
Partial results reported by local media, citing the election vote tallying commission, indicate that 92-year-old President Paul Biya is poised to secure an eighth term in office.
