President Bozizé, who's also a general, has taken on the role of Defense Minister, a portfolio which had already been combined with his presidential seats until four years ago. Government spokesman Gezuai Binuwa, told the BBC that questions about poor results of the army in the past weeks couldn't be left unanswered. A new army chief of staff should be named in the coming hours or days, Mr. Binuwa said. __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________.
