DAKAR, Senegal (AP) — The world’s oldest president has just won re-election at the age of 92. Paul Biya is the second president Cameroon has seen since independence in 1960, and the only ruler most people in the central African nation have ever known.
He’s not alone. There are heads of state around the world well into their 80s, while the oldest U.S. president ever sworn in, Donald Trump, is 79.
Here’s a look at them.
92: Paul Biya, Cameroon
Biya came to power in 1982 following the resignation of Cameroon’s first president. He has ruled since then, later benefiting from a constitutional amendment that abolished term limits. His latest election win followed protests by opposition supporters in a country where over 70% of the population is under 35.
89: King Salman bin Abdulaziz Al Saud
