He was diabetic and was one of six candidates running against incumbent President Sassou Nguesso, 77.

A day before the election, Kolelas was filmed looking weak and wearing an oxygen mask but encouraging voters to go cast their ballots.

He was the son of a former prime minister and previously held the position of minister of fishing and civil servants.

The electoral law of Congo-Brazzaville does not annul the election if one of the candidates dies.
