Dr. Mnangagwa also reaffirmed SADC’s readiness to support Mozambique in strengthening its democratic processes and urged the international community to respect the sovereign will of Mozambicans.
“SADC stands ready to assist the incoming Government and People of Mozambique in consolidating their electoral democracy on the basis of the court decision, which should be held sacrosanct by all,” he said.
The statement further urged all stakeholders to focus on promoting peace, law, and order in the country.
Mozambique’s election ruling follows a year marked by numerous elections across the SADC region, a development Dr. Mnangagwa described as evidence of democracy flourishing in southern Africa.
