The Central African Republic (CAR) has re-elected President Faustin-Archange Touadéra for a third term, with provisional results indicating he secured 76.15% of the votes. The election, conducted on December 28, 2025, was notably marked by a boycott from the main opposition coalition. This boycott came in response to a recent referendum that removed presidential term limits, allowing President Touadéra to run again.
Election Outcome and Reactions
President Touadéra celebrated his victory, which solidifies his position to lead the country forward. However, the election results have generated mixed reactions both domestically and internationally. Concerns have been raised about:
- The political climate
- The fairness and transparency of the election process
Context and Challenges Ahead
The Central African Republic continues to face political instability and security challenges. The president’s reelection is viewed as:
- An opportunity to advance stability
- A test for the nation’s future direction
The opposition’s absence from the polls highlights ongoing tensions within the political landscape as the government prepares to move ahead with governance and reform initiatives.
Looking Forward
Faustin-Archange Touadéra’s third term signals a continuation of his policies focused on stabilizing CAR. However, there is pressure to address the demands for inclusive governance to ensure broader political participation and reconciliation.
