on Sunday on Sunday, on June 18, a referendum is held on amendments to the Constitution.
Voters vote for a new draft of the Basic Law of the country, which will pave the way to hold new elections in February 2024 to go to civilian rule.
President of the transition period Mali Assimi Goita told state television that the executive branch will work better with the proposed project of the Constitution.
One of the leaders of the opposition, Imam Mahmud wildly, called for vote in a referendum against changes to the Constitution.
Some political parties believe that the transition government that came to power as a result of a military coup in 2020 does not have the authority to amend the Constitution.
The amendment to the Constitution, which will expand the powers of the president, is aimed at creating a structure similar to the Senate, under the name “Higher Council of the Nation.”
According to new changes, the country’s policy will be determined by the president, not the government. Prime Minister and ministers will be appointed president. The President will also have the right to dissolve the National Assembly.
It was previously announced that the referendum would take place on March 19, but the vote was postponed for technical reasons.
