Menongue – Angolan minister of Social Action, Family and Women's Promotion Faustina Alves asked for greater participation of women and young people in the Public Service Desk to ensure their participation in the general elections in August, 2022.
The minister said so this Friday, in Menongue, south-east Cuando Cubango province, at the inauguration of the “Cambinda Calilo” nursing home, on the sidelines of the President João Lourenço’s visit to the region.
The minister encouraged young people turning 18, before the day of the general elections, and citizens who have changed their residence to get registered and update their electoral data.
The official recalled that participation in elections is a right enshrined in the Constitution of the Republic of Angola and stressed the importance of Angolans choosing their representatives, which will require official electoral registration.
She highlighted the mission of the media in raising awareness among national citizens on greater adhesion to the Single Public Service Barcs (BUAP) services, now open on weekends and bank holidays.
