Paulin Pomodimo

Archbishop Paulin Pomodimo (born 30 June 1954 in Ziendi) is a Roman Catholic Archbishop in the Central African Republic. He was the Archbishop of the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Bangui, the capital city of the Central African Republic. He became Archbishop in July 2003, when he replaced Joachim N'Dayen.[1]

He resigned his post as Archbishop of Bangui on 26 May 2009 after a Vatican investigation found that that many local priests had violated their vows of chastity, poverty and obedience.[2]

He was later named ombudsman of the Central African Republic by President François Bozizé.[3]
