Constitutional court bans CASA-CE president from creating other parties

Luanda, ANGOLA, August 17 - The decisions of Abel Chivukuvuku, as president of CASA-CE, cannot overlap with those of the associated parties, such as creating new political parties within the coalition, the Constitutional Court dictated on August 14, 2018.,

The decision of the Constitutional Court also voids the role of the alleged "independents" members of CASA-CE, concluding that they cannot be part of the Presidential Committee of the coalition, as it is the case, for example, of Lindo Bernardo Tito.

The Constitutional Court thus partially respond to a request for clarification from five of the six parties that make up the Angola's Broad Convergence of Salvation-Electoral Coalition, about a conflict that opposes them to its president, Abel Chivukuvuku.  

The coalition, which has 16 seats in the National Assembly, was founded in 2012 by the five parties referred to above, a group to which, in 2017, the Democratic Bloc (BD) was also joined.
