Nicolas Tiangaye Biography

Nicolas Tiangaye is one of the most popular and richest Lawyer who was born on September 13, 1956 in Bocaranga, Central African Republic. Tiangaye was born in Bocaranga in 1956. In 1956, he was a lawyer. He was a lawyer in 1986. Tiangaye was among three Central African lawyers selected by the deposed Emperor Jean-Bedel Bokassa to defend him during his trial. He also served as an attorney for defense of Francois Bozize from 1989 during the time that Bozize has been accused of conspiring in opposition to the state. Bozize was found not guilty. After a few years, when Tiangaye and Bozize became political enemies, Tiangaye said about the case that he “was doing [his] duty as a lawyer” and said he didn’t regret the decision to defend Bozize.

In the year 2010, Tiangaye was Spokesman of the Forces of Change Collective, made up of opposition parties and former rebels at the time that the government was trying to hold a presidential and an election for the parliamentary elections. The Collective demanded that the election be delayed over the time that was set by the president Bozize. On April 9, 2010 Tiangaye stated that opposition parties would not participate in the vote without a delay. Tiangaye also said that if the vote were scheduled to be held in May 2010 it wouldn’t be credible due to the insufficient conditions. Then the 29th of April, Bozize accepted the need to postpone the election until “all the parties involved in these elections, including the international community, will be ready.”

Djotodia promptly suspended the constitution and dissolved the government, as well as the National Assembly. He then reappointed Tiangaye as Prime Minister on 27 March 2013. Tiangaye commanded substantial respect among those who opposed Bozizé, political parties and rebels alike, as well as international observers.

The peace agreement unraveled in March 2013, as Séléka resumed seizing towns, accusing Bozizé of failing to keep his promises. After days of fighting, the rebels captured Bangui on 24 March 2013, forcing Bozizé to flee the country, and Djotodia was declared President. Djotodia said that there would be a three-year transitional period and that Tiangaye would continue to serve as Prime Minister.

Following Francois Bozize seized power in March 2003, Tiangaye was designated as one of the 98 members of the National Transitional Council (CNT) that was created to serve as a legislative body for the transitional period and he was added to the Council as a representative for an organization for human rights, due to his function as the President of the LCDH. He was then elected the President of the CNT on June 14, 2003. In that position Bozize was a key figure in the drafting of the constitution for 2004; according the report of Tiangaye, Bozize was displeased by the constitution’s restriction on two terms as president, and, consequently, was unhappy with Tiangaye.
