Luanda - The new Constitution of the Republic of Angola approved Thursday  by the National Assembly will enter into force after being promulgated by the Angolan Head  of State, explained the Constitutional Commission's chairperson.

 
According to Bornito de Sousa, who was addressing a press conference held at Palace  Congresses Hall, after its approval the Constitution shall be submitted to the Constitutional  Court for analysis.

 
‘’Let's wait for a Constitutional Court's decision, which in general is mandatory and binding’’,  he said.

 
The Constitution will be promulgated by the President unless the court raises any objection.

Any issue raised will be further considered by the Constitutional Commission and then by the  National Assembly, in the quality of the Constituent Assembly.

The new Constitution was approved with 186 votes in favour, two abstentions and none  against.

UNITA did not attend the ceremony, after leaving the Wednesday's session vote in speciality  of the Magna Charter.
