Mozambique’s President-elect, Daniel Chapo has notified opponents in the just ended elections of his openness to dialogue after a series of protests by opposition.
The Frelimo Flag bearer dominated 3 opponents to secure 70.67% of the vote.
“I want to be the president for all Mozambicans, united from Rovuma to Maputo. Let us engage in dialogue, in conversation. It is not through street protests that Mozambique develops, but through peace, dialogue, harmony, security, and conversation. We are open to any Mozambican who has an idea to contribute to our country.” the President elect said after the announcement of disputed results from the polls.
Reports indicate that the ruling party, Frelimo will dominate in Parliament as the majority after a flawless victory in concurrent polls.
A number of protests organized against the results which were announced on Wednesday were quelled out by police who dispersed protesters with the use of tear gas.
