Information About

Bruno Amoussou




Amoussou has contested all four presidential elections since democratic rule was reintroduced in 1990. In 1991, he received 5.8 % of the vote and fourth place, therefore failing to qualify for the second round. In 1996, he also placed fourth with 7.8 % of the vote. In the first round of the 2001 election, he placed fourth yet again with 8.6 % of the vote, but participated in the runoff when the second- and third-placed candidates withdrew from the race. Running against heavily-favored incumbent Kérékou, Amoussou received nearly 16 % of the vote.

Amoussou ran again in the March 2006 Presidential Election , obtaining about 15% of the vote and coming in third place.
