“The Constitutional Court has ten requests from commissions to install political parties,” Mauro Alexandre told Rádio Nacional de Angola, stressing the need for commissions to install them to comply with the requirements required by law, for registration as a political party.
He recalled that, in the last three years, the Constitutional Court received requests from the commissions that set up the United Patriotic Front and the political project PRA-JA Servir Angola, having concluded that they are not their own political or legal entities.
