jose m vaz guinea bissauBissau, Sep 11 (Prensa Latina) Guinea Bissau''s President Jose Mario Vaz today said that he accepted the Supreme Court''s ruling that his appointment of a new prime minister was unconstitutional.
Vaz also said that he will meet with the political parties, with seat in the Parliament, in the next few days, for forming a new cabinet.

Last Wednesday, the Supreme Court ruled unconstitutional Vaz' decision of appointing Baciro Dja as new prime minister last August 20.

The eight advisory judges, who form the Constitutional Court, voted in favor of ruling the 06/2015 decree of Guinea Bissau's president illegal.

Due to that ruling, Dja decided to resign the post. His government, presented last Monday, collapsed in less than 49 hours, and about a month after Vaz removed Guinea Bissau's prime minister Domingos Simoes Pereira, in August.
