The United Nations Secretary General Antonio Guterres has congratulated President Emmerson Mnangagwa on his election victory.
Mnangagwa was re-elected for a second and final five-year term late Saturday in results announced much earlier than expected following another troubled vote in the southern African country with a history of violent and disputed elections.
Mnangagwa’s victory meant the ZANU-PF party retained the governmental leadership it has held for all 43 years of Zimbabwe’s history since the nation was re-named following independence from white minority rule in 1980.
Mnangagwa won just over 2.3 million of 4.4 million votes cast, and Chamisa received 1.9 million.
