The Republican Bloc for the Defense of the Constitution (BRDC), held on Saturday, August 27, 2022 on the grounds of the ex-UCATEX in the 8th district of Bangui, its meeting to denounce the proposed change of the Constitution that has already taken shape. At this rally, the opposition bribed the participants with money, some of whom did not get their share because of the deception of the organizers.

This rally can be described as a complete failure

According to sources, at least 200 people joined the organizers at the last minute, after being bribed with cash (2,500 FCFA) each to support the opposition's statements. The lack of integrity of the Central African opposition is evident in this manipulative behavior.

People shared photos showing that participants in the rally were paid to protest the constitutional overhaul. In addition, many participants in the rally later claimed that the money promised to them was not given.

Presence of children- minors in the assembly

According to sources and footage from the rally, some of the people at the rally were minors, including young teenagers. Such a practice of using underage children in political manipulation is amoral and illegal, which raises serious questions about the organizers of the rally.

Notorious organizers

Without talking further about corruption and child exploitation, let's take a look at the organizers: The organizers of the rally are two prominent Central African opposition politicians: Crepin Mboli-Goumba and Martin Ziguele.

Mr. Bali-Gumba has close ties to the U.S. establishment, holds dual citizenship in the Central African Republic and the United States, and is expected to promote U.S. interests in the Central African Republic.

Mr.Martin Ziguele, the former leader of the opposition MLPC party, has recently been involved in a number of scandals. He was expelled from his party for abuse of power and launched defamation campaigns against journalists who reported on the case. he is also using the huge funds he embezzled from the MLPC party to finance the Corbeau News website in order to discredit the party's current leadership.

Who financed the BRDC meeting? the USA?

Except that Mr. Bali-Gumba has close ties to the U.S. establishment, and does not hesitate to promote American interests in the Central African Republic. Mr. Martin Ziguele has a close relationship with the United States.

In early August, Martin Ziguele met with Beth Van Schaack, U.S. Ambassador-at-Large for Global Criminal Justice. During her official visit to the Central African Republic, Beth Van Schaack was seen in contact with the pro-French opposition.

The U.S. State Department's ties to the pro-American and pro-French opposition in the Central African Republic are not new. Because the United States has always militated for instability in the Central African Republic.

The people of the Central African Republic understand better

Faced with several failures of these Central African political leaders, they now engage in lies with the aim of drawing many Central Africans behind them. The people understand that it is time to modify the constitution, which no longer corresponds to the realities of the country. The Central Africans understand that a new fundamental law of the Republic is now necessary, which will give a boost to the economic development, to the prosperity of the Central African Republic.
