Here is a picture of Voodoo Priest Joseph Fritzner Coma who was elected to become the new Ati Nationale.

On Saturday, February 27, 2016, the National Confederation of Haitian voodoo (KNVA) elected the hougan Fritzner Coma Joseph Augustin as the new Ati Nationale. Following the deaths of the first ATI Max Beauvoir on September 12, 2015 and his successor, Alcémat Zamor on 30 December 2015, the voodoo sector in Haiti was divided between two groups, Augustin Saint-Cloud and camp mambo Euvonie Georges Auguste-- both of them were aiming the throne. Joseph Fritzner Coma secured the highest office of voodoo by defeating two other contenders-- singer Carole Demesmin and Saint-Cloud. Saint-Cloud had held the coveted position during the interim period since the death of Zamor in a car accident. Joseph Coma won the poll by securing 23 out of 40 votes. During his speech, Mr. Coma has promised to bring some freshness to the voodoo practice and culture. He has also mentioned that during his 37 years of practicing voodoo, he had never harbored the dream of becoming an ATI. He will do his best to organize the institution of voodoo, to protect and defend all Haitians.

Carline Viergelin selected to replace Néhémie Joseph

Carline Viergelin selected to replace Néhémie Joseph

The Voodoo Sector has made its choice by selecting Carline Viergelin to replace Néhémie Joseph.

Within a week of the resignation of Joseph Néhémy from the Provisional Election Commission (CEP) on October 2nd, Carline Viergelin has been appointed as her replacement representing the Voodoo and the peasant community on the nine-member council of CEP. The correctness about the news of her appointment published on Le Nouvelliste has been confirmed by the Secretary General of the National Palace because, as per the Secretary General's statement, a Presidential Decree has already names Carline Viergelin as electoral adviser-- just a matter of swearing will bring back the CEP to 9 members. However, none of the leaders of the Haitian Voodoo sects, such as Charles Suffrard (organization Tet Kole Peyizan), Euvonie Georges Auguste (Haitian National Vodouisante Confederation or KNVA) or Augustine St. Clou representing 18 voodoo organizations in the country, are aware of her selection. This shows how the voodoo sector in the country is plagued by divisions.

Here is a picture of Euvonie Georges Auguste, the new Leader of the Voodoo sector in Haiti following the death of Max Beauvoir

Euvonie Georges Auguste, the interim Secretary General of the National Confederation of Haitian Vaudouisante has said the Haitian voodoo sector will not send any representative to the Provisional Electoral Council (CEP) to replace Nehemie Joseph because the CEP does not have the required credibility to hold a fair election. After the death of Max Beauvoir, the Supreme Chief of Haitian voodoo on September 12, 2015, 18 voodoo organizations in the country selected Augustin Saint Clou as the acting Supreme Chief. But, that decision was challenged by Mambo Euvonie Georges of the Haitian National Vodouisante Confederation (KNVA) and KNVA announced the appointment of Euvonie as the acting Supreme Chief of Haitian voodoo, replacing Augustin Saint Clou. However, another Voodoo organization (National Commission for the Restructuring of Voodoo or CONAVO) has sent their choice for a replacement for Nehemie Joseph to Martelly.

Haitian Voodoo's Supreme Chief, Max Beauvoir, recently passed away in Port-au-Prince. He was 79. Beauvoir had another vocation, besides being a houngan, as a biochemist.

After studying and working in the U.S. he returned to Haiti, rose to the highest rank in Voodoo, and advocated for the religion Voodoo legitimately is.
