Africa-Press – Angola. <\/strong><\/span>The MPLA proceeds, this morning, to the Constitutional Court, to deliver the candidacy process for the general elections of 24 August.<\/b><\/p>\n

The ruling party is thus the first, among the 13 political formations recognized by the Constitutional Court, to present its candidacy for the next election.<\/p>\n

The MPLA has already publicly presented the list of candidates for President, Vice-President of the Republic and deputies to the National Assembly. The head of the list is Jo\u00e3o Louren\u00e7o, who is seeking re-election for another five-year term as Head of State, while as candidate for Vice-President of the Republic the party has nominated a woman: Esperan\u00e7a Eduardo Francisco da Costa, current secretary of Fisheries State.<\/p>\n

Esperan\u00e7a da Costa was publicly presented at the mass political act carried out by the MPLA, last Saturday, in Mbanza Kongo, in the province of Zaire.<\/p>\n

Parties and party coalitions have until the 25th of this month to formalize their candidacies. For this purpose, they must make an appointment in advance, through the digital platform http:\/agendamento. tc.ao which allows them to choose the day and time they want.<\/p>\n

The list of candidates must contain the full name, the identity card number and, optionally, the voter card number of each candidate and be accompanied by documents such as the photocopy of the Identity Card and certificate of the criminal record of each candidate, as well as a declaration of individual or collective candidacy, signed by each candidate and certified by a notary.<\/p>\n

In the declaration, candidates must expressly state that they are not covered by any ineligibility, do not appear on any other candidate list, accept the candidacy presented by the proposer, agree with the representative of the list and that they agree to be bound by the Electoral Code of Conduct .<\/p>\n

According to Law n\u00ba 36\/11, candidacies must designate, from among the registered voters, a representative to represent them in all operations of the electoral process, whose representation is permitted, under the terms of the law. The address of the authorized representative must also always be indicated in the application process for the purpose of notification.<\/p>\n

In the event of irregularities, procedural deficiencies or ineligible candidates, the Constitutional Court notifies the political party or coalition of competing political parties, at least four days in advance, so that the irregularities, deficiencies or ineligible candidates can be replaced, until the 10th day following the deadline for submitting applications. Failure to address the irregularities determines the refusal of the candidacy.<\/p>\n

In the absence of any challenge or rejection of candidacies, complaints or once those presented have been decided, the President of the Constitutional Court immediately sends the National Electoral Commission the list of accepted candidacies and the respective candidates.<\/p>\n

The 13 parties recognized by the Constitutional Court are the MPLA, UNITA, PRS, FNLA, APN, PNjango and the Angolan Humanist Party, in addition to the BD, PDP-ANA, PADDA-AP, PALMA, PPA and PNSA, which are part of the CASA- EC, which in the last elections retained the status of the third largest political force in the National Assembly.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, among the six allied parties, the BD has already expressed interest in leaving CASA-CE, to embrace a platform led by UNITA, with which it intends to run in the general elections on 24 August.<\/p>\n
