Mozambique heads to the polls as President Filipe Nyusi steps down after two terms
Voters in Mozambique are heading to the polls to elect a new President and Parliament members, marking the end of President Filipe Nyusi’s two-term rule. While the electoral commission maintains it is running a free and fair election, rights groups have raised concerns about transparency and fairness. The next president will inherit a troubled economy, with delays in gas extraction projects due to armed conflict and severe damage from worsening cyclones.
