Personal details
Born 1957 (age 57–58)

Anicet-Georges Dologuélé (born 1957) 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

Prior to becoming Prime Minister, Dologuélé served as Minister of Finance and the Budget in the government of Prime Minister Michel Gbezera-Bria.[1] Dologuélé was not a member of the ruling Movement for the Liberation of the Central African People (MLPC) and he faced hostility from the MPLC; 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]
