He was also the first democratically elected president of his country, serving from 16 April 1993[2] until he was deposed in a military coup d'état on 27 January 1996. He has continued to run for president in each election since his ouster, and he was president of the National Assembly from December 1999 to May 2009. Since April 2020, he is the president of the Democratic and Republican Renewal (RDR Tchanji),[3] a major political party that is currently in opposition.
