      <video:description><![CDATA[Oxford Economics believes the end of Paul Biya’s regime, and all the risk that comes with that end, may be close. They note Issa Tchiroma Bakary's claims to have beaten President Paul Biya in Cameroon's presidential election on Sunday is credible, due to a landslide in northern Cameroon and the protest vote in the rest of the country. Lead Political Economist François Conradie says the situation is very uncertain and it is possible that Elecam agents will defect in response to Tchiroma's appeals, but doubts it noting the Constitutional Council is expected to duly declare Biya the winner. Francois Conradie joins CNBC Africa for more on this.]]></video:description>
