He said that ward congress to elect new executives would take place on January 25, pointing out that appeals on conduct of the ward congress would be taken on January 30.
Orbih disclosed that the timetable had slated municipal congresses to elect new executives for Feb. 8, while appeals on the congresses would be heard on February 13.
