Ne are running for the presidential election on March 21. Thank you for giving us the opportunity to give a definitive opinion on the subject ”, declared Denis Sassou Nguesso in front of a crowd that came to attend Saturday in Kibangou (South) at the launch of the works of a road to eventually link the Congo and The gabon. “Together, we will participate in peace to continue the march towards development”, continued the Congolese leader who promised that “the ballot will take place in transparency”. Thus, at 77 years old, the Congolese president, who has accumulated 36 years at the head of the Congo, sends a clear signal that he is not ready to let go of the helm of the country.
An announcement that completes a dynamic initiated within the PCT
Before deciding, Denis Sassou Nguesso had been invested as a presidential candidate by his political party, the Congolese Labor Party (PCT) and sixteen other parties allied with the majority. On Saturday, elders from the Niari department, where Kibangou is located, invited him to apply before handing him several traditional attributes of power, mats, panther skin and teeth, cola nuts, noted a journalist from AFP. President of the Congo between 1979 and 1992 then since 1997, Mr. Sassou Nguesso heads this country of 5 million inhabitants, dependent on oil, suffocated since 2014 by an economic crisis which forced him to negotiate aid from the International Monetary Fund ( IMF).
