The Notice states that "...persons who have been issuing online posts, and messages with subtle campaign themes and innuendos are hereby warned to desist immediately."

According to the ECNBA, until the Electoral Committee declares "...campaigns open and set out the limited scope of such a campaign as provided in our Constitution, and relevant guidelines, no prospective candidate nor his/her supporters shall post, issue, print, publish, or display any campaign material, nor embark upon a campaign visit under any guise.

Where evidence of such infraction is provided to the ECNBA, such a candidate shall be disqualified forthwith and shall not participate in the elections."

Thank you, and do have a restful holiday.
