Sunday’s Provincial Administrative Organisation (PAO) elections will be fiercely contested with former allies pitted against one another in some key constituencies.
A feature of the PAO poll is that a province is counted as one constituency, unlike the general election where several constituencies cover one province.
The election will be held for 76 PAOs, each looking for a chairman and PAO member seats to fill. It is the first time a local election has been organised since the 2014 coup-makers suspended them to prevent political disturbances.
