Elections in African countries this year will be unlike many others as some of them are a response to coups, conflicts and other derailments of democratic processes in recent years, a report by the Africa Centre for Strategic Studies says.
Libya, Somalia, Mali, Guinea and Chad are all tentatively scheduled to hold elections that have been delayed or disrupted by coups or conflict. Other countries that will hold elections this year are Guinea, Kenya, Angola and Somaliland.
