According to Amuriat, the decision was reached at after the alleged release of the Revised Road map for elections of the Special Interest Groups (SIGs) by the Electoral Commission.
In a statement, the fdc wondered whether the EC was declaring an end to COVID-19 by releasing a roadmap for the elections of SIGs without escartaining to when the COVID-19 lockdown is likely to end.
“We still don’t know whether the commission is declaring an and to the threat caused by COVID-19 for them to release a program that requires political consultations and gatherings,” wondered Amuriat.
However, the Electoral Commission refuted claims by the FDC and other individuals that the commission released a revised electoral roadmap for elections of the leadership of the SIGs.
