Cameroon Mourns Senator Marcel Niat Njifenji

-


Cameroon is in mourning following the death of Marcel Niat Njifenji, former President of the Senate, who passed away on Saturday, April 11, at the Yaoundé Central Hospital (CHU). He was 91.

A native of Bangangté, Marcel Niat Njifenji was one of the country’s most enduring political figures, known for his calm demeanor and steady presence in public life. Over the years, he played a key role in shaping Cameroon’s legislative landscape, rising to become the head of the Senate, the upper house of Parliament.

His passing marks the end of a long career marked by loyalty to the state and decades of service. For many, he was not just a politician, but a symbol of continuity within Cameroon’s political system.

As news of his death spreads, tributes are expected to pour in from across the country, especially from the West Region, where he remained a respected figure among his people.

Details of funeral arrangements are yet to be announced.
