United People for Social Renovation (French: Peuple Uni pour la Rénovation Sociale, PURS) is a political party in Cameroon.
The party was founded by Serge Espoir Matomba and others in 2010, but did not nominate a candidate for the 2011 presidential elections. It did contest the 2013 parliamentary elections as "United People for Social Revolution", but failed to win a seat.[2] Serge Espoir Matomba served as the party's candidate for the 2018 presidential elections.[3]
In 2021, Matomba condemned an ambush of Rapid Intervention Brigade troops by Anglophone separatists as "shameful attack on Cameroon's democracy".[1]
