Cameroon
In Cameroon, saying anything bad about the president, Paul Biya, might just earn you one to five years imprisonment and/or a fine of 20,000 to 20 million CFA francs ($42-$42,260). And this is beside the fact that your accusations may very well be accurate.
Per the penal code, truth is not a defense. And while there may be no specific law against it, you definitely want to refrain from saying too much about the president’s wife.
