Central African Republic President Touadéra set to win referendum with Wagner help
A referendum in the Central African Republic allowing the president to run for office indefinitely has been criticized as a farce by opponents.
Provisional results indicate that 95% of voters supported the changes to the constitution, but critics argue that turnout may have been as low as 10%.
The country, still affected by a civil war and controlled by rebel groups, has seen the arrival of Russian Wagner mercenaries who support President Faustin-Archange Touadéra.
