CAR Musician Lends His Voice to Highlight Struggles Faced by His Country

Lisa Schlein

   GENEVA - Ozaguin, considered the most popular singer-songwriter in the
   Central African Republic, recently came to the U.N.'s European
   headquarters in Geneva to awaken the world to the struggles faced by
   his country, which has been mired in civil war since 2012.

   Ozaguin sings about the difficulties confronting his people. He sings
   about the constant search for food in a country where insecurity
   prevents people from farming and harvesting their crops. He sings about
   people fleeing into the bush to escape the violence of armed groups. He
   sings about the same armed groups manipulating vulnerable people into
   doing their bidding so they can feed their families.
