Frelimo, the ruling party, is asking Mozambicans to wait calmly for the official release of the results of the last elections, which were generalized by the Constitutional Council (CC) on October 9.

"This is a moment of patience and respect for the democratic process in our country," said Frelimo spokeswoman Ludmila Maguni yesterday (28), quoted by AIM.

Maguni was speaking at a press conference minutes after the end of the 37th ordinary session of the Frelimo Political Commission (CP), the deliberative body between sessions of the Central Committee.

The CP, according to Ludmila Maguni, considers that there is no reason, under any circumstances, to justify deaths and the destruction of property.

"The Political Commission argues that the solution to the challenges facing the country lies in each one of us and we must all be responsible for building a prosperous, united and peaceful Mozambique," he said.

It also calls on parents and guardians to keep a close eye on young people, especially children and teenagers, and to guide them away from violent demonstrations.

It encourages every Mozambican to get involved in the various fronts of development, in their communities and families, contributing to collective progress.

According to Ludmila Maguni, the Political Commission expresses its concern and disgust at the threats to the physical integrity of Frelimo members and all Mozambicans, including the vandalization of party headquarters and other institutions, in the context of the violent demonstrations.

"Such attitudes run counter to the peaceful coexistence and harmony that we hold so dear in our politics and society," he said.

It therefore encourages the Defense and Security Forces (FDS) to act with professionalism and a spirit of state, prioritizing the protection of people and public and private property.

The work of the DSF is essential to guaranteeing public order and tranquillity, which is why it repeatedly appeals for everyone's cooperation so that peace prevails in the country.

"The Political Commission invites all political and social actors and the Mozambican people in general to see this post-election moment as an opportunity for deep reflection on the paths that Mozambique must take to strengthen our democracy, national unity and definitive peace. This appeal extends to all Mozambicans, including those in the diaspora," said Ludmila Maguni.

Since October, the country has been experiencing a climate of post-election tension characterized by demonstrations called by presidential candidate Venâncio Mondlane, in protest at the election results that gave victory to Frelimo and its presidential candidate Daniel Chapo, according to the National Electoral Commission.
