Mali Military Govt Postpones Presidential Election Intended to Restore Civilian Rule: BaMAKO, Mali (AP) — Mali’s military government has postponed a presidential election that was expected to return the West African nation to democracy following a 2020 coup...
The presidential election scheduled for February 2024 is delayed for "technical reasons” to allow the transitional government to review its election data and to address a new constitutional provision that would delay the second round of the vote, government spokesman Abdoulaye Maiga told reporters in Bamako...“The transitional government specifies that the new dates for the presidential election will be communicated at a later date..."
(Funny that no mention is ever made about the struggle over who will control the narcotics trade through Mali.)

#2 Well it's a good thing that they're kicking the French out. That will clearly solve all of the problems Mali is having.

Africa is a "developing" continent, but it isn't developing anything the least but useful.
