It is the only town where Christians and Muslims live in harmony. A stark contrast to the capital Bangui around 300 km away where Muslims have been violently targeted and forced out of their homes. Bambari town is under ex-Seleka forces who are defending both Christians and Muslims from any attack internally and externally.
