The Supervisor of Elections has today accredited the first member of the Multinational Observer Group who is now in the country as a long-term observer of the general election.
Following the accreditation, the Supervisor of Elections welcomed the member of the MOG and noted that more members of the group will be arriving in the country in due course and particularly once the general election is announced.
