Earlier this morning presidential candidate, Baciro Dabo, was shot in his home by unknown gunmen. Dabo had recently split from his party and started to run as an independent in the African country of Guinea-Bissau. The campaign for election was supposed to begin Saturday.
The election comes after the country's former president, Joao Bernardo "Nino" Vieira, was assassinated on March 2nd. It is not known what sparked the killing, but Dabo did serve as Vieira's interior minister.
