According to section 91 b of the Elections Act, all presidential candidates are supposed to abide by ethical electoral conduct. This provision states:
¡§A candidate or political party shall not during an election campaign period ¡V
(b) abuse or engage in the improper use of property of the Government for political propaganda purposes.¡¨
It is therefore evident that to promote free and fair elections, state resources and personnel should not be utilised for partisan political purposes.
