Prime Minister Ariel Henry has dismissed members of the Provisional Electoral Council (CEP) throwing into doubt the planned constitutional referendum and elections in the French-speaking Caribbean Community (CARICOM) country.
The elections and referendum had already been postponed twice due to the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic.
In an immediate reaction, André Michel, one of the leaders of the opposition parties, “Democratic and Popular Sector” (SDP), said the “dismissal of the current CEP is an important step in the implementation of the September 11, 2021 agreement.
“We will ensure that the next CEP is credible and legitimate,” he added.
