In a recent sermon delivered via social media, Father Humphrey Tatah Mbuy, a prominent Cameroonian priest, articulated the critical role of elections in fostering a “community of love” in society.

Father Mbuy asserts that the Church has a significant responsibility to guide the electorate towards informed voting and civic engagement. By emphasizing education and moral principles, the Church can contribute to ensuring that elections are free and fair, ultimately fulfilling its mission to build communities rooted in love and justice. His insights reflect a broader understanding of the intersection between faith and civic responsibility.
