About this statute

This provision says the Order sets other ways to conduct elections for decentralised administrative entities when the Organic Law on elections does not provide for them, because of the COVID-19 pandemic. This Order applies to elections for local leaders at the Village, Cell, Sector, and District levels. Village executive committee posts are filled by indirect election, with each group electing three representatives and at least one representative being female. This article lists who is elected to the Cell Council, who elects them, and allows candidates to be nominated and campaign on election day. Article 5 lists the Sector Council posts that are elected and requires the representative of the listed organs to be Rwandan.
