An independence referendum was held in the French Territory of the Afars and the Issas on 8 May 1977 alongside an election for a Constituent Assembly. Previous referendums were held in 1958 and 1967,[1][2] which rejected independence. This referendum backed independence from France.[3] The territory became independent as Djibouti on 27 June 1977.
The result is celebrated annually on Independence Day on 27 June.
