PROTESTERS …

Mozambique police officers gesture towards protesters in Maputo yesterday, as Daniel Chapo took oath of office to be sworn in as the president of Mozambique during his inauguration at Independence Square. Mozambique swore Chapo in as president following months of post-election violence, which a non-governmental organisation says has killed more than 300 people. Vowing “to devote all my energies to defending, promoting and consolidating national unity”, Chapo, 48, extends his Frelimo party’s 50-year rule of the gas-rich African nation. Opposition candidate Venancio Mondlane claims that the October 2024 election was rigged. (Photo by Amilton Neves / AFP)
