Algeria's Bouteflika to resign before mandate ends April 28 - SABC News - Breaking news, special reports, world, business, sport coverage of all South African current events. Africa's news leader.

There was no immediate reaction from leaders of the protest movement that has buffeted, a major oil producer, since February 22. Many protesters want a new generation of leaders to replace an elderly, secretive ruling elite seen by many as out of touch and unable to jump-start a faltering economy hampered by cronyism.

Bouteflika, rarely seen in public since he suffered a stroke in 2013, at first sought to defuse the unrest by saying on March 11 he was dropping plans to run for a fifth term. But Bouteflika signaled late on Sunday that he was on his way out when he appointed a caretaker cabinet headed by interim Prime Minister Noureddine Bedoui. An interim leader cannot appoint ministers under the constitution.

Several opposition leaders on Sunday supported the army chief’s proposal that Bouteflika’s capacity to govern be assessed under article 102 of the constitution.The announcement of Bouteflika’s pending resignation came hours after privatesaid Algeria had seized the passports of 12 businessmen in an apparent swoop on associates of the president.

Some demonstrators have rejected Algeria’s tradition of military intervention in civilian matters and want to dismantle the entire power elite, known locally as “le pouvoir”, which includes army officers, the long-ruling National Liberation Front party and business tycoons.
