The Prime Minister, Laurent Lamothe welcomed the installation of the last 4 members of the CEP and reiterated its commitment to support, within the limits of its powers, the electoral process. Speaking on behalf of the Prime Minister, Mr. Kedlaire Augustine, Spokesman of the Prime Minister expressed hope that the complete installation of CEP enables to unblock the situation, calling the opposition senators to ratify the electoral law.
