Anicet-Georges Dologuélé (born April 17, 1957) is a Central African politician who was Prime Minister of the Central African Republic from 4 January 1999 to 1 April 2001. Subsequently he was President of the Development Bank of Central African States (BDEAC) from 2001 to 2010.
Life and career
Dologuélé was Minister of Finance and the Budget in the government of Prime Minister Michel Gbezera-Bria[1] and subsequently served as Prime Minister from 1999 to 2001. As Prime Minister, Dologuélé, who not a member of the ruling Movement for the Liberation of the Central African People (MLPC), faced hostility from the party; on 1 April 2001, he was dismissed by President Ange-Félix Patassé and replaced by Martin Ziguélé. Dologuélé criticized this decision as putting political considerations ahead of "good management".[2]
Dologuélé was appointed to head the BDEAC in August 2001.[3] He remained in that post for over eight years; he was eventually replaced by Mickaël Adandé from Gabon in January 2010.[4]
In October 2013, Dologuélé founded a political party, the Central African Union for Renewal (URCA). He also planned to stand as a candidate in the next presidential election.[5] As campaigning began for the election, which was eventually scheduled for 27 December 2015, Dologuélé presented himself as a candidate of peace and inclusion. He declared that he had "never held a weapon" and said that the ousted and exiled former President François Bozizé, who was barred from standing in the election, would be able to play some unspecified role in national affairs. Bozizé's Kwa Na Kwa party threw its support behind Dologuélé.[6]
