Junta leader speak against self-perpetuation
The Mauritanian military putchist President Ely Ould Mohamed Vall has incriminated last Saturday, in Nouakchott, the absence of change at the helm of African states as being as the bases of the cronical crisis affecting the continent.
“The absence of democratic alternative at the helm of many African countries were a person who just monopolise power and stay for 15, 20, 25 or 30 and in some cases 40 years is the conditions permit it is the origin of all the crisisthe continent is experiencing”, he said. The president of the Military council for justice and democracy (CMJD) and head of State stated this view while adressing the population of Zouerate (900 km north of Nouakchott towards the Algerian border) as part of jis nationwide tour.
Colonel Ely Ould Mohamed Vall, adressing the Mauritanian Information Agency underligned that a leader who stays in power for such a long time and not answerable to anyone and says that he will transfer power to a protegé of his choice when the time comes. (Such management of state affairs are the origin of military coups, caused by security factors, hatred among others), added the Mauritanian head of state, who himself was the leader of the coup détat that overthrow the regime of president Maaouya Ould Taya.
In appealing in favour of of alternative to power and a radical rupture from the Mauritanian tradition (an attempt for a civilised) of transition of power during the 46 years of independence, the head of the Junta pleaded to the population for a massive “YES” vote in the upcoming referandum.
The new constitution has reduced the tenure of the presidency to a Two-mandate limit. The june referandum shall be followed by a general election that excludes the members of the junta and government ministers.
