In this context, Minister of Finance and Budget, Hervé Ndoba, signed an agreement with the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) for funding of $4.7 million directed to the joint electoral fund, primarily aimed at providing necessary logistical support to ensure the smooth running of the electoral process.
The minister explained that this amount constitutes the first phase of the government’s commitment, affirming that total support will reach $8 million, with additional disbursements planned in the coming days. He also noted ongoing consultations with the UNDP to ensure transparent and coordinated management of the funds allocated for the electoral process.
