Concerns are mountains that a raft of new political parties, including many claiming to represent the " revolutionary women and youth movement" that helped in the last couple of months to dismantle and to reduce the influence and the popularity of the opposition in some regions of the country have no even completed the formal party registration process yet and will be in no position to mount a successful appeal for votes by October this year..
