Seychelles' electoral commission has announced the provisional dates for the island nation's presidential election to be held later this year.
We believe in the context of things they represent the dates which are best suited for the coming election," explained Danny Lucas.
To date, only two political parties have announced their candidates for the upcoming election.
This exercise will stop two months before the confirmed date of the presidential election.
Frequent meetings are expected to be held with the ten political parties registered, to allow these parties to be updated on the latest information including confirmed election dates and nomination dates.
