On Sunday, the Director of the Office of Local Government Affairs and Elections in the Presidential Council, Abdel Basset Godan, confirmed that the Presidential Council is keen to hold the presidential elections on time.
This came during his meeting with the Head of the Libyan High National Elections Commission (HNEC), Dr. Imad Al-Sayeh at HNEC’s headquarters in Tripoli.
During the meeting, they discussed mechanisms of joint cooperation between the council and the commission with regard to awareness programs for citizens. These programs should urge citizens to register as a voter and candidate to ensure the success of the elections scheduled for next December.
Al-Sayeh expressed the commission’s readiness to provide consultations and technical support for the activities proposed by the Presidential Council in this regard.
It was agreed to continue holding periodic meetings to follow up on the elections file until they are held, according to the council’s media office.
