Voters in the Central African Republic will head to the polls on Sunday to elect the country's next president and legislative¹ body.

本周日，中非共和国的选民们将参加总统与立法机构选举。

The country's acting² president Catherine Samba-Panza called for a peaceful election.

"I encourage you all to go out tomorrow in massive numbers and vote calmly, with dignity and peacefully. We all suffered to sow the seeds of this peace that is now starting to sprout³. We must consolidate⁴ it so that the will of a sovereign people is shown tomorrow and is respected."

The elections are expected to facilitate the country's reconstruction⁵ following a civil war that started in 2012.

On Saturday, UN Secretary General Ban Ki-moon called for a "peaceful and credible⁶" election process.

The newly elected government is scheduled to take power by the end of March.
