A distressing video of alleged lady from the electoral management body of Mozambique has surfaced on the internet. According to a video posted by X user “Simba_oneblow”, protester during the ongoing post elections violence in Mozambique, opposition activists invaded one of the electoral management body member’s house, v!olently att@cked her and torn all her clothes.
Mozambique’s protests comes after the 2024 elections has sparked a powerful movement for change.
In October, Daniel Chapo, the candidate of Mozambique’s ruling party Frelimo, was declared winner of the presidential election that opposition parties say was marred by voting irregularities.
The disputed election results sparked protests from opposition supporters and there has been more violence since. The unrest has affected business operations, including for mining companies, and has at times led to the closure of key trade corridors.
Thousands are defying a violent government crackdown, demanding an end to decades of dominance by the governing party. Mozambique’s Constitutional Council is expected to rule on the validity of the election count on Dec. 23, an outcome civil society organisations and analysts fear may trigger more violence and economic disruption if Frelimo’s victory is upheld.
