The crisis comes days after the Union’s Elections Commission released its guidelines for the conduct of its elections, scheduled for March 31. “We plead for your intervention in disbanding this commission to save the Union from an inevitable backwardness,” Artus added. “The Elections Commission members were appointed by the Union’s president with the consent of the members, including the complainant, who was in that meeting. If the commission’s selection is unconstitutional as he (Frank Artus) claims, I don’t think he could have registered, although he still owes some balance of his registration,” Chairman Russian said. Meanwhile, Chairman Russian disclosed that this year’s election, unlike the past will take place in 10 of the 15 counties, making the election decentralized than ever before.
