Several opposition parties on Saturday called for the vote to be postponed due to the Covid-19 pandemic, which has seen 18 people test positive since the country's first case was diagnosed on Wednesday. "According to our information, the opposition leader was likely kidnapped by militias from central Mali claiming to be from Amadou Koufa," a security source said.
A source close to Cisse also said the opposition leader was in the hands of the Koufa's Katiba Macina. "In these difficult times our country is going through, more than ever, the party's activists are resolutely urged to redouble their efforts for a massive participation in the March 29, 2020 elections," the country's main opposition party said Saturday.
