Elections2022: Christian churches call on politicians to respect for electoral results

Cabinda – The Council of Christian Churches of Angola (CICA) appealed Monday to the head of political parties to respect the results emerged from 24 August general elections to preserve peace and tranquility.

“The moment we are living in the country should be seen as a celebration (…) the most important thing is to keep calm and respect the wish expressed at the polling stations”, said the representative of CICA in Cabinda, Rev. Albino Cassinda.

Speaking to ANGOP, the official recalled the pacifying and reconciling role of the church, which keeps peace, love and fraternity values.

Angola held general elections last Wednesday, won by the ruling MPLA party.
