Luena - The Commission for Justice and Peace of the Episcopal Conference of Angola and Sao Tome (CEAST) this Saturday in Luena recommended electoral transparency and justice during the 24 August general elections.
The appeal was made at the end of the regional conference on "the challenges of building the Angolan nation: past, present and future," which was attended by delegates from the provinces of Moxico, Lunda Norte, Lunda Sul, Cuando Cubango and Bié.
According to the recommendations of the delegates who took part in the conference held by the Justice and Peace Commission of CEAST, it is necessary that the electoral process is capable of conferring greater credibility to the political event and its results.
On the other hand, the delegates recommended a review of the current economic system of the country, in order to put at the centre the concerns and needs of the communities, as well as a fair distribution of wealth.
They also discouraged the "abusive" extraction of natural resources in the region, especially wood, without providing social returns to the population.
