The African National Congress (ANC) has welcomed the Constitutional Council’s declaration of Mozambique’s official election results.

This comes amid renewed protests in Mozambique following the court’s confirmation of ruling party candidate Daniel Chapo as the winner of October’s contested presidential election.

In a statement issued on Tuesday, the ANC reiterated its respect for constitutional processes and underscored the need to uphold democracy in the Southern African region.

“As a long-standing ally and partner of the people of Mozambique, the ANC reaffirms its respect for the constitutional processes and institutions that safeguard democracy in our region,” said ANC national spokesperson, Mahlengi Bhengu-Motsiri.

The ANC called on all political parties, stakeholders, and Mozambican citizens to respect the declared outcomes and focus on fostering national unity and development.

“This is a crucial moment to rise above divisions and work collectively to address the socio-economic challenges facing the nation,” Bhengu-Motsiri.
