According to the IEC, the Chief Justice will in turn transfer the National Assembly list to the Secretary to Parliament to prepare for the first sitting of the National Assembly.
The National Assembly (NA) is one of the two parts of Parliament. It chooses the president, makes laws and ensures that executive members execute their duties efficiently. Additionally, the NA serves as a crucial platform for public debate, allowing representatives to discuss and deliberate on key issues affecting the nation.
