YAOUNDE, May 16 (Xinhua) -- Felix Moloua has been reappointed as prime minister of the Central African Republic, according to a presidential decree issued on Friday.
The reappointment came more than a month after President Faustin-Archange Touadera's swearing-in and inauguration for a new seven-year term following the Dec. 28, 2025, presidential election, which he won with 77.9 percent of the vote.
Two days earlier, Moloua had submitted his resignation to Touadera in line with post-election tradition, and the president accepted it. Following his reappointment, Moloua became the first head of government under the country's "Seventh Republic."
Moloua was first appointed prime minister in 2022 and has served in the post since then. Before becoming prime minister, he served as the country's minister of planning, economy, and cooperation. ■
