The big breakthrough is to the credit of the Union of Humanist Democrats (UDH-Yuki) of the late opponent Guy-Brice Parfait Kolélas.
This formation won seven seats in the National Assembly, the same number of elected members as the Pan-African Union for Social Democracy (UPADS), until then the leading opposition formation.
Another important victory, that of Claudine Munari. With 58% of the vote obtained, the former leader of the opposition Federation defeated the Minister of Small and Medium-Sized Enterprises, Jacqueline Lydia Mikolo.
There are also four independent personalities who were elected.
On the whole, the legislative elections coupled with the local ones made it possible to renew the 151 seats of the lower house of Parliament and 1154 seats of the local, departmental and municipal councils.
During the process, ” peace, serenity and national cohesion have been preserved “, welcomed the Minister in charge of the elections Guy-Georges Mbaka.
Next steps: renewal of the office of the National Assembly and a possible cabinet reshuffle.
