Catherine Samba-Panza, 58, will be the first woman to lead the nation. Ms Samba-Panza was able to defeat seven other candidates, two including the sons of former presidents. She has the goal of leading it to the national elections. Hopes are high that she can halt the impoverished nation's "free fall." It is believed that man led the country into a spiral of violence, some believe there only hope to get out of it is if a woman is in charge. Ms Samba-Panza acknowledge in an assembly on Monday that "Our country is on the brink of implosion. The situation is catastrophic. More then ever the country needs someone who can bring it together." Hopefully Ms. Samba Panza will be able to turn things around and end the violence in Central Africa.
