World - Africa

The Supreme Court issued a court order on Saturday to postpone the run-off between opposition leader Julius Mada Pio and ruling party candidate Samura Kamara after a member of the ruling All-People's Party filed a fraud claim in the first round of elections.

It was not clear when the balloting scheduled for Tuesday will take place. The election commission immediately submitted a request to the court on Monday to postpone the second round of presidential elections until next Saturday, after preparations for the ballot have been halted due to the previous court order.

The judge read out the court's ruling that "the elections can be held as scheduled," without elaborating on the reasons for the decision.

President Ernst Bay Koroma leaves office after spending two terms in power, the maximum. The first round of the March 7 presidential election was largely quiet, but there were accusations of fraud in some areas and complaints by the Election Commission of harassment by the police.
