BANGUI, Feb 11 (NNN-AGENCIES) — Faustin-Archange Touadera has been president of the Central African Republic for the past six years but that has not stopped him from imparting knowledge to students.
Despite being the country’s topmost politician, he made time to lecture at the main university in the capital Bangui.
The presidency confirmed that on Tuesday, Feb 8, 2022, Touadera delivered his first lecture for the 2021/2022 academic year.
He took Mathematics students through a session at the University of Bangui and assured the press that he will do all it takes to ensure that he is present to teach at least once a week.
A report alwihdainfo.com showed the president interacting with his students in a class. It cites one of the students as saying he was proud to have the president as a lecturer.
Prior to entering politics, he had a long career as an academic becoming an assistant lecturer in Mathematics at the University of Bangui in 1987 and vice-dean of the science faculty from 1989 to 1992.
He also served the university as vice-chancellor and later rector at different points. — NNN-AGENCIES
