Jude Celestin Prezidan

Jude Celestin told Le Nouvelliste:

"On espère que le CEP sanctionnera ceux qui ont violé l'article 122-2 de la loi électorale"

Translation:

"We hope the CEP will sanction those who have violated Article 122-2 of the electoral law,"

Freres et Seurs dans le Seigneur... Article 122, Verset 2, de la loi electorale de la Republique d'Haiti... Men kisa li di...

"Par ailleurs, toute manifestation publique en faveur d'un ou plusieurs candidats, d'un ou de plusieurs partis, groupements politiques ou regroupements politiques est formellement interdite le jour du scrutin et jusqu' la proclamation des résultats."

Translation Of Article 122-2:

"In addition, all public demonstrations in favor of one or more candidates, one or more parties, political groups or political groups are strictly prohibited on polling day until the proclamation of the results."

Bon Fout!

says...

"...There is no reward for those who respect the electoral law, but we must penalize those who violate it..."

...I am a responsible man who weighs and weighs each every act I make... If we had the irresponsible attitude of putting our fans in the street on Sunday November 28, we would have witnessed a Black Sunday..."

"...The duty of any citizen running for political office is not to antagonize the nation..."

Jude Celestin also told Le Nouvelliste that he it was amazing for him to see how those who participated in the elections first requested it's annulment, and then, they came back on their position the following day to proclaim their willingness to go to the second round.

The article also mentioned that Jude Celestin declined to comments on the rumors surrounding his private life and his studies

first and foremost, this is the dumbest constitutional law that I have ever heard of. How can a law as such be enforced in a country like Haiti?

Who would enforce such a law?

Furthermore, don't Haitians always make reference to democracy?

at Jude, You have guts, man. You did not follow most of the electoral process.

You paid people to vote for you. You took advantage of people's hunger and misfortunes by buying their votes for a pittance.

Pre-stuffed ballots boxes were found conveniently with your name all over. You lied to the Nation about your curriculum vitae.
