Rolland Saf Aims to Digitize Cameroon’s Future With 2032 Bid

Rolland Saf, the 35-year-old fintech entrepreneur and CEO of UXLINK, announced his candidacy for the Cameroonian presidential election in 2032 on September 10, 2025, during a press event in Tokyo, Japan. The declaration marks the beginning of a six-year campaign leading up to the election, which will focus on leveraging digital governance and innovation to address systemic challenges in Cameroon.

Saf, whose global experience includes living and working in multiple countries, emphasized his commitment to applying his leadership and technological expertise to national development. As the founder of UXLINK, a Web3 project with over 54 million global users, Saf has demonstrated a track record of building systems that promote transparency, opportunity, and financial inclusion. His vision for Cameroon aligns with these principles, aiming to transform the country into a model of digital and economic advancement in Africa.

Saf’s campaign is structured around five core pillars: fighting corruption through digital governance, expanding infrastructure in critical sectors such as roads, water, power, and healthcare, empowering youth and entrepreneurs with access to capital and mentorship, expanding digital and financial literacy, and harnessing the potential of the Cameroonian diaspora. In an interview, Saf expressed his belief in a society where success is determined by merit rather than privilege.

Central to his vision is the launch of a movement called NEW MAGA—Make Africa (the birthplace of humanity) Great Again. The movement seeks to unite Web3 innovation with tangible development efforts, positioning Cameroon and Africa as leaders in the digital era. Saf emphasized that his candidacy does not conflict with his ongoing role as CEO of UXLINK. Instead, it reflects a broader mission to integrate digital trust and financial inclusion into both online and offline systems.

Saf will continue to lead UXLINK, a global initiative focused on connecting Web2 users to the opportunities of Web3 through social growth and interoperability. The company is recognized as a major player in the Web3 space, with a strong presence on platforms such as CoinMarketCap. While the declaration of candidacy has sparked interest in both political and digital circles, Saf’s campaign has not yet been formally registered with any political party or electoral body.
