Following the submission of their credentials to the IEC, Adama S. Touray, PAP\u2019s aspiring candidate for Bundung Mauritania highlights his plans for the Ward if elected.<\/p>\n

\u201cI have plans for my ward, because I know there. I am in Bundung since 1991, so I know a lot. There are things that we should do and things we shouldn\u2019t do. I know everything. We have to make roads for them. We have to help the children, especially those going to school. I want to definitely sponsor them If I have this seat. That is my main target because education is the key to success. If you have an education everything will be fine,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

Mr. Touray said he is a hundred percent sure of winning the election come April 15, 2023.<\/p>\n

\u201cYou know if you are going to war, you never pray to lose you always said I will win. Secondly, the people pointed me out to contest, I can\u2019t count on them. People came to my house on more than three occasions. During the process also I see how they supported me. So I know 100% that I will win by Allah\u2019s grace there is confidence \u201cMr. Touray stated.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, Assan Gaye, PAP\u2019s Aspiring Candidate for Bundung Borehole Bantaba called on women and the youth of his ward to come together and bring the change they want.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe can bring change in our community. So doing this, we want to invite all the women and youth. We are not also leaving the men behind to come and support and guide us through our plans. So that we can achieve this together as a community,\u201d He said.<\/p>\n

Mr. Gaye said his number one agenda is peace and unity. He said told the press that he wants to bring everybody together to support one another.<\/p>\n

Mr. Gaye believed that they cannot do anything without unity.<\/p>\n

Mr. Gaye, said if elected, he will work with his opponents to bring the development they are all calling for.<\/p>\n

According to the IEC\u2019s schedule, candidates for the People\u2019s Democratic Organisation for Independence and Socialism(PDOIS)and People\u2019s Progressive Party(PPP)are expected to file their nomination papers across IEC Offices in the country, Match 22, 2023.<\/p>\n
