Ivan Collendavelloo retains his seat as the MP in Constituency #19 (Stanley/Rose-Hill). The announcement of the official results of the recount at Our Lady of Victories School RCA in Rose-Hill, confirm the election of the leader of the Muvman Liberater (ML), who received 8,945 votes while the MMM candidate, Jenny Adebiro received 8,865 votes, a difference of 80 votes.
Ivan Collendavelloo concedes that an anomaly is not a normal thing. And as always, he has the easy word: “If I count all the anomalies and offer them to Adebiro, I will still be elected. Si mo azout sa ban anomali la enn par ek mo kado li Adebiro, car mo mem res le depute de nimero 19”, says the leader of Muvman Liberater.
According to Ivan Collendavelloo, the Electoral Commission, the Commissioner, Irfan Rahman as well as the Returning Officer must assume their responsibilities. Returning to the recount of the ballots, the MP for Constituency No. 19 was keen to salute the “work of the agents of the Militant Socialist Movement and the Prime Minister, Pravind Jugnauth. The work continues in Constituency No. 19 after the fallout of the recount,” said the local MP.
“We were in favor of holding a recount in order to clarify the doubts especially in the public opinion. Dimoun ti pe kumans doute si pa mo fin bien eli. Zordi sa ban dout la in ale la. We will no longer be able to contest the results of the elections. Zot pou remarke dan tou petition ki fin ekoute dan la kour, enn par enn zot in perdi. This is a work of destabilization done mainly by Navin Ramgoolam, which was followed by the leader of the MMM,” said Ivan Collendavelloo.
According to him, “Jenny Adebiro is a person of great value. Mo dir li aret suivi ban leader ki pou amen li dan trou. She has a bright future,” he said.
