The Litigation of the Results of the Presidential Election of 2018

The law in its finality organizes life in society. Congolese democracy is characterized by the organization of elections at regular intervals as is the case in all other democracies throughout the world. Thus elections ensure the alternation of power on the other hand they can be a considerable source of conflicts insofar as the situations generated by them call into question the democratic project to which the people want to aspire. Thus the object of the litigation is directly linked to a precise category of the electoral operations whose contestations relate mainly to the electoral lists the candidatures the electoral campaign the results of the poll and finally in connection with the request for cancellation of the poll. In addition the irregularities of the previous electoral cycles should in principle lead both INEC and the legislator to improve in order to guarantee a selective mode with the least irregularities for the third electoral cycle the latter having marked the end of the constitutional mandate beyond the two-year term of honorary president KABILA KABANGE Joseph.
