In a statement to which Lusa had access, the movement recalls that since 2019 it has been fighting for its legalization and that this process has "evidenced evidence of illicit acts carried out by some bodies and public agents that intentionally made it impossible to annotate the PRA-JA Servir Angola in political party".
This year, on August 23, 2023, the political project filed, with the Constitutional Court, an extraordinary appeal for review of ruling no. 632/20, "due to it being riddled with serious defects", which was rejected.
Feeling aggrieved, PRA-JA Servir Angola filed an appeal against the decision of the Judge Counselor President of the Constitutional Court, which was admitted and is undergoing due legal procedures.
More recently, on the 12th and 13th, according to the statement, the political project filed criminal complaints against State agents assigned to the Municipal Administrations of Luanda and Cuanza Sul, who "contributed decisively to the non-legalization of PRA-JA Servir Angola in Political Party".
PRA-JA promises to continue "fighting using the legal instruments contained in the Angolan legal system".
The leader of the political project, former leader of UNITA, a party he abandoned to found CASA-CE, in 2012, a coalition from which he was removed in 2019, presented at that time his intention to form a new party – PRA-JA – which has tried to legalize, without success.
In last year's general elections, Abel Chivukuvuku ran as part of the UNITA lists, within the scope of the United Patriotic Front platform, and was elected deputy.
