Malian Prime Minister Choguel Kokalla Maïga recently presented his 2021-2022 government action plan to members of the National Transition Council (CNT) in Bamako. In an extraordinary session in Bamako the Prime Minister addressed the members of the CNT, which currently serves as the Legislative Assembly.
In his speech , the prime minister referred to the need for making election process credible and transparent. He highlighted the important role to be played by all organs of the society composed of political parties, unions and civil society organizations. He also referred to the need for creating a single body for the management of elections. This, he said, was a persistent demand, expressed for decades by the political class and the civil society as a whole, he added.
In the meantime, political analysts are eagerly watching whether the military-led interim authorities will stick to a promise to hold elections within 18 months. There is also international pressure on the country to hold elections in time to pave the way for a democratically elected government.
