Enhance the Guinea-Bissau Elections Management Bodies’ capacity to hold legitimate, transparent and credible elections in accordance with domestic legislation and international standards.
On April 2018, the Lomé Agreement was signed, again brokered by ECOWAS, with involvement of national stakeholders, enabling the opening of the Parliament, the appointment of a consensual Prime Minister and the appointment of an inclusive Government with the primary responsibility of organizing legislative elections in 2018.
The President of the Republic announced 18 November 2018 as the date for holding legislative elections in Guinea-Bissau. However, due to a series of constraints (technical, financial and political) and delays in the voters’ registration process, it was not possible to hold the election as scheduled.
On 20 December 2018, following consultations with GTAPE, CNE, the Prime Minister, political parties and the Council of State, the President of the Republic decreed that the legislative elections will be held on 10 March 2019.
At the UN Security Council Briefing on Guinea Bissau on 21 December, all Council members welcomed the new date of legislative elections, while regretting that the initial date of 18 November 2018 was not respected.
They emphasized the continued relevance of the Conakry Agreement, and the need for its full implementation by the Bissau-Guinean leadership.
The holding of fair, transparent and credible elections is an important step on the way to political stability in Guinea-Bissau.
The elections will restore democracy by devolving power to a legitimate Government elected by the people.
Although CNE, the main elections management body, and GTAPE have some experience having organized several elections in the past, they still require assistance particularly in the procurement of materials, complex logistics and operational aspects, as well as voter outreach.
