Guinea-Bissau's PM kicks off electoral campaign

The prime minister of Guinea-Bissau , Nuno Gomes Nabiam , kicked off on Saturday the electoral campaign for the June 4th legislative elections.

Nuno Gomes Nabiam is campaigning for his party, Assembly of the United People - Democratic Party of Guinea-Bissau.

"We can't have incendiary speeches, that doesn't help. These speeches bring problems and it is the country that suffers. I, Nuno , don't count on me to create confusion. I'm not here for that. I have the capacity to do other things. If not in politics, I will do other work. We have to moderate our way of being and doing politics", said the prime minister referring to the issue of security and stability in Guinea-Bissau .

On February 1 , 2022  an attack against the Government Palace, where a meeting of the Council of Ministers was taking place, with the presence of members of the executive and the Guinean President, Umaro Sissoco Embaló , resulted in more than a dozen fatalities and was considered by the authorities as an attempted coup .

Last Friday, political parties signed a code of conduct in Bissau , sponsored by the United Nations , in which they undertake, among several points, to accept the election results presented by the National Electoral Commission .
