Questions and instructions

Literal question

80A–ETH. The Ethiopian Constitution requires that the next national election be held in 2020. However, given widespread insecurity in the country at the moment, some people are suggesting that the election should be delayed. What about you? In your opinion, should the election be held in 2020 as required, or should it be postponed?
