It has been a subject of conversation during the past few months in regards to the election for the region of Quatre Bornes and how it politic work in instance in Mauritius.
Lets recap a bit to the General Election in Mauritius of end of 2014 (if am not mistaken). Parti LEPEP won the battle of the elites but most of the population were surprised to see the underdogs winning.
As a matter of fact, the reds were the most popular ones, but following the few incidence in regards to the ‘Marchant Cotomilli’ and the fact that the previous prime minister was craving for more power, the majority of the population opposed to this and thus voted against the political party which made the LEPEP party the winner.
Now comes the Bhadain saga where the mighty minister, who’s aim was achieve senior minister or number 2 position following the step down of Sir. It was unsuccessful which ended up, Bhadain throwing a tantrum. Now this regional election comes to this:
- Bhadain is arguing against the Metro express, which he was notopposed publicly during his time as minister.
- The power craving ex prime minister, threw his number 2 into this election as he threatened to overpower him. Thus Mr Cotomilli will go back to hiding in his mansion.
- The ‘White Rat’ is throwing some guy, due to a clear fight between hindus but will he risk throw a more powerful non hindu?!
So now let the game begins. Its gonna be entertaining to watch, NOT!
