He was Minister of Health and Population in the government of Congo-Brazzaville from 2002 to 2005 and has been a Deputy in the National Assembly since 2005. ==Political career== Moka was born in Impfondo, located in the Likouala Region of northern Congo-Brazzaville. He is a medical doctor by profession and became the medical ''attaché'' to the Congolese embassy in Paris in 1997.〔 He was subsequently a member of the National Transitional Council, which served as a transitional legislature from 1998 to 2002.〔Calixte Baniafouna, ''La bataille de Brazzaville, 5 juin–15 octobre 1997'' (2008), L'Harmattan, page 196 .〕 In the May–June 2002 parliamentary election, he was elected to the National Assembly as the candidate of the Congolese Labour Party (PCT) in Impfondo constituency; he won the seat in the first round with 67.20% of the vote.〔, ''Les Dépêches de Brazzaville'', 5 June 2002 .〕 Following that election, he was appointed to the government as Minister of Health and Population on 18 August 2002;〔, ''Les Dépêches de Brazzaville'', 19 August 2002 .〕 accordingly, he succeeded Léon-Alfred Opimbat at the Ministry of Health on 22 August.〔, ''Les Dépêches de Brazzaville'', 23 August 2002 .〕 Following an outbreak of the Ebola virus, which claimed 29 lives, Moka announced the end of the outbreak on 20 January 2004.〔("Republic of Congo declares end to latest Ebola outbreak, 29 dead" ), Associated Press, 20 January 2004.〕 As Minister of Health, Moka was reportedly disliked by foreign donors and criticized for making little progress in improving the poor state of the health sector after years of civil war. The European Union demanded repayment of two million euros in aid that Moka was alleged to have redirected away from its intended use.〔("Coming cleaner" ), ''Africa Confidential'', volume 45, number 15, 21 July 2004.〕 He remained Minister of Health and Population until he was dismissed from the government on 7 January 2005;〔, ''Les Dépêches de Brazzaville'', 8 January 2005 .〕 subsequently he returned to his seat in the National Assembly.〔, ''Les Dépêches de Brazzaville'', 18 February 2006 .〕 Radio Moka, a Likouala radio station owned by Moka, was ordered to be closed by the Prefect of Likouala on 1 September 2005. The station was accused of broadcasting partial information, as well as inciting hatred and division. According to Moka, however, the closure was in retaliation for the station's failure to cover an Impfondo rally in support of PCT Secretary-General Ambroise Noumazalaye in the midst of an intra-party dispute.〔("Impfondo : "Radio Moka", une chaîne locale, réduite au silence" ), Congopage website, 5 September 2005 .〕 In that dispute between PCT reformers and conservatives regarding the organization of the party, Moka was associated with the conservatives.〔Tshitenge Lubabu, ("Un boulevard pour 2009" ), ''Jeune Afrique'', 13 August 2007 .〕 Moka has also been President of the Jean-Pierre Moka Foundation, a non-governmental organization dedicated to the development of Likouala. Founded in 1995, it was named after Moka's father.〔Pascal Azad Doko, ("Alain Moka, président de la Fondation Jean-Pierre Moka : «La Fondation Jean-Pierre Moka s’est, surtout, investie dans l’appui au développement de la Likouala»" ), ''La Semaine Africaine'', 27 November 2012 .〕 Moka visited Impfondo in early 2006 as part of a health initiative; he distributed mosquito nets to students and planned to send a supply of condoms to help combat the spread of HIV.〔 For the June 2007 parliamentary election, the PCT chose to nominate Charles Zacharie Bowao rather than Moka as its candidate in Impfondo.〔Gerry-Gérard Mangondo, , ''Les Dépêches de Brazzaville'', 3 April 2007 .〕 Unlike Moka, Bowao—who was Minister at the Presidency for Cooperation, Humanitarian Action, and Solidarity—was considered a representative of the party's reformist wing.〔 Moka stood as an independent candidate for re-election to his parliamentary seat representing Impfondo constituency and was victorious,〔"Les résultats des élections législatives, avant l'examen des contentieux électoraux", ''La Semaine Africaine'', number 2,720, 21 August 2007, page 7 .〕〔, ''Les Dépêches de Brazzaville'', 11 August 2007 .〕 receiving 75.76% of the vote〔 and defeating Bowao.〔 At the PCT's Sixth Extraordinary Congress, held in July 2011, Moka was elected to the PCT's 51-member Political Bureau.〔Joël Nsoni, ("Denis Sassou Nguesso aux congressistes du P.c.t : «Les élections ne se gagnent pas dans les bureaux.
