Speaking after the meeting, the head of the delegation said that they had discussed the forthcoming presidential election and the electoral process with the head of the United Nations Operation in Côte d'Ivoire (UNOCI). "{We were able to gather information on the activities being carried out by the United Nations to support Côte d'Ivoire}", said Mr. Sané.
With regard to the WAMU's observation process, Mr. Sané recalled that the observers were members of parliament who had a lot of experience in the electoral process in their countries, and who are then sent on electoral observer missions in various countries.
"{We also had discussions with the institutions in charge of the elections as well as the candidates and now we will go to different parts of the country to observe the voting and counting of votes process, after which we will provide information on how the process was conducted,}" said Mr Sané, before calling for peaceful elections so that Côte d'Ivoire can continue to be "WAMU's economic engine".
