Mali election: Opposition candidate Soumaila Cisse gains momentum
Cisse came in second to President Keita in 2013, but instability in Mali may provide him the circumstances to win this time around.
Malian voters will head to the polls on Sunday to decide their next president.
Ibrahim Boubacar Keita is seeking a second term but his popularity has been hurt by ongoing violence and instability across the country.
Among his twenty-three rivals, opposition candidate Soumaila Cisse is seen as a potential challenger.
