Receipt. Something we are here because we are patriots and because we are tired of the oppression that is happening in our country. Our country has a lot of resources which could make it rich but unfortunately our leaders have a lost for power and are denying us that. The government has limited the ability of International Media to cover the election and tonight accreditation to International Election observers thats cast further doubt over whether the poll will be free and fair for one. Who is covering the election he starts by telling us more about the alleged killings by the police and what that means for the election. So there have been such allegations insensible because the whole position of supporters to go and vote today that its not the date certain date as i say its only for the for the special groups. Runs about so but ive had to interview this. Together with the Police Officers Police Officers in towns about and they have denied such allegations but they have said that they have been some confrontations with the police because some people were insisting to go in for today so there have been some confrontations but the police have denied such allegations but of course when you talk with the Opposition Party that they said he was a window they emphasize that some people kid their Opposition Leaders have also been arrested by the police ok there seems to always be some confrontations there in that country the president has been accused of crushing dissent and abusing his power what exactly is going on. So there have been allegations from various International Bodies toward stands and there that the current president is abusing his power i mean we have heard this from from the Reporters Without Borders complaining about the situation of journalists we have had recently that the government wanted their local media to get special interests in order to get connected to the International Media so we have also had that.

Day itself what are the main issues people are voting on. So there are some people for example who who are voting for like new regime so they want changes serum has been in power since independence and even before this here theyre pretty says i was called tunnel so this has been a party which was in power which has been in power for so many years since the appendices so there are some people who want change they want to see what their opposition can do when they when they get a chance to rule the country so this is on the one hand the people who would support their position but are the other side they will be there are some people who see that the incumbent president has done a lot so when you look at Infrastructure Projects that have been quite some projects including their current. Project standard gauge rate they have been the president has been reviving the National Carrier yet in syria so some of the people who would wish that the incumbent president continue so that he can finish what he started away are those exactly ok you know we were caught up in william thanks for your time thanks.
