Touadera

On October 2, 2025, thousands of Movement of Central African Unity (MCU) supporters rallied in Bangui to join President Faustin-Archange Touadéra as he submitted his candidacy for the December 28 presidential and legislative elections.

Touadéra’s Thanks

Speaking to the crowd, Touadéra thanked supporters, saying, “Your encouragement fuels my commitment.” He hopes their energy will lead to votes on election day.

Strong Confidence

As the first candidate to file, Touadéra is optimistic. “Our party secured the top ballot spot. I trust this support will shine on December 28,” he said.

Public Excitement

Bangui resident Théodora Zimongo shared, “From Bimbo to Begoua, we united to back our president. It’s a historic moment for our nation.”

Opposition’s Call

The opposition bloc opposes Touadéra’s third-term bid, urging dialogue for a transparent election. They stress open talks to ensure fairness.

Why It Matters

The massive rally and opposition’s concerns show a divided Central African Republic as it nears a pivotal election.

What’s Next

By December 2025, Touadéra’s campaign and opposition demands for fair elections will shape the nation’s political future.
