National Assembly 144 seats · 7-year term · Direct election in single-member constituencies using a two-round majority system

The legislature is unicameral. The President is directly elected by absolute majority in a two-round system for a renewable seven-year term; the Prime Minister is the head of government and is appointed rather than nationally elected. The ANE is an independent electoral management body with administrative and financial autonomy.
