The two officially made known candidates at the moment are Godden Ndenge Zama and Shewa David Damuel Jestel who all declared their intensions through press conferences.

Ahead of the elective convention of the Social Democratic Front (SDF) scheduled to take place in October this year, party members are making known their candidates for the post of chairmanship. As at now, two candidacies have been publicly presented and they are that of thirty-eight-year-old business man and graduate from the University of Buea, Godden Ndenge Zama, who is the Limbe District Chair of the SDF, and Shewa David Damuel Jestel, an entrepreneur and political scientist who is a member of the SDF who carries out his activities in Donga-Mantung Division, North West Region. Both candidates declared their candidacies during press conferences respectively held on August 5, 2023 in Limbe and August 18, 2023 in Yaounde.
At the death of the pioneer National Chairman, Ni John Fru Ndi, party activities were suspended till his burial, and the first candidacy was only declared a week after the official funeral offered the deceased as decreed by the Head of State.
In the press conference in Limbe, Godden Ndenge Zama who has been District Chair of the party for over a decade, noted that he is ready to defend the interest of the party and meet up with the aspirations of the people. Godden Zama also paid a glowing tribute to the emblematic Ni John Fru Ndi who served the party as Chairman since May 26, 1990 when the SDF was launched in Bamenda. “As Chairman, I want to accompany you; I want to lead from in front so that this great national party can take its rightful place in the Cameroonian nation and finally deliver on its huge promise,” Godden Zama stated.
