Boguila is a town located in the Central African Republic prefecture of Ouham-Pendé. According to Medecins Sans Frontieres, Since the coup d’état in March 2013, Boguila has been unstable with increasing tensions and violence. In August 2013, a peak of violence provoked a massive population displacement in the area. In December 2013, Muslims fleeing violence from Nana Bakassa sought refuge with host families in Boguila before moving further north. Between January and October 2013, approximately 95,000 people in the areas surrounding the town received treatment for malaria.
