The Sunday's legislative election in Benin will not have any opposition politicians on the ballot.

The Electoral Commission said in March that no party opposed to the government had complied with the new requirements and that the National Assembly had reached no agreement on a constitutional resolution.

The president said the elections should go ahead, but at least one civil society activist said he could roll back the country for decades.

Ama Boateng from Al Jazeera reports from the commercial capital, Cotonou.
