Euloge Landry Kolélas

He is the President of the Congolese Movement for Democracy and Integral Development (MCDDI), a political party, and has served as High Commissioner for the Reintegration of Former Combatants since 2017.

At the same time, his brother, Guy Brice Parfait Kolélas, was dismissed from the government after coming out in opposition to changing the constitution to allow President Denis Sassou Nguesso to run for another term.

[12] After Sassou Nguesso's victory in the March 2016 presidential election, he retained Euloge Landry Kolélas in his post as Minister of External Trade and Consumption on 30 April 2016.

[15] Meanwhile, the Union of Humanist Democrats (UDH-Yuki), a splinter party established by his brother (who remained in opposition to Sassou Nguesso), succeeded in drawing much support away from the pro-government MCDDI and won eight seats.

Following the election, Euloge Landry was not retained in the government, but was moved to a post at the Presidency as High Commissioner for the Reintegration of Former Combatants on 22 August 2017.
