(MENAFN) Mali's President Ibrahim Boubacar Keita has thought about plans for a plebiscite on constitutional repair that have been met with dissent and ignited regular street protests, he said on state television overnight.
Keita said in a late-night broadcast, "I have decided in all responsibility to postpone the organization of a referendum on the constitutional revision."
"I have done this because, given the way that our country is confronted with so many major challenges, we cannot add to the existing problems ... controversy and misunderstanding."
