History
One hundred APRD fighters attacked Bodjomo on 28 December 2005, making it the first APRD's attack. In response to it, Presidential Guard visited the village. They killed seven civilians and torched 500 houses.
Revolution and Justice captured Bodjomo in January 2014 from Seleka's hand.[3] In April 2014, Séléka militias visited Bodjomo and killed four people, including two catechists from the catholic church.[4]
On 28 December 2017, a clash between RJ and MPC ensued in Bodjomo.[5] As a result, the villagers fled, thus leaving the ex-Seleka fighters only in Bodjomo.[6]
In September 2022, a flood swept Bodjomo due to the heavy rain, causing the destruction of farm fields and the villager's houses.[7]
