Interview with Angèle Dola AGUIGAH, President of the CENI On May 15, 2013
On Tuesday, you presented an operation to eliminate duplicates from the file. How did it go?
We invited the political parties and the media because they are the ones who support us and explain to the population how things are going and how we work. We also invited civil society and technical and financial partners to see the work we are doing together. We wanted to show how the electoral register is processed so that when we go to display them next week, people will realize that it is indeed a processed file and that we have tried to clear as many people as possible. But that doesn't prevent the population from being made aware of going to detect foreigners, young minors who are not entitled to be registered by, and people who have been registered several times on several kits at the same time. But it must also be explained that it is not possible for a citizen to register on the same kit at the same time. So these people have been to several census centers to register. We must remove them so as not to unnecessarily inflate the electoral register and these people cannot vote more than once.
The number of people registered will decrease from 3,100,000, but not too much. These people represent a small percentage of registered voters.
Is the CENI reassuring people about the transparency of the upcoming elections?
We reassure, and that's precisely why we invited you today to see. We can't go to elections with an electoral register that isn't clean. It's the cleanliness and cleaning of this register that we invited representatives of political parties and the press for.
You also talked about the call for applications that will be launched. What does it consist of?
The call for applications concerns people who are candidates in each political party. Those who want to be candidates must be able to submit their application, which will be processed at the CENI level. The call for applications period will open soon.
