The annulment of the elections is the way to end the demonstrations, according to the Renamo, Mozambique Democratic Movement (MDM) and New Democracy (ND) parties.

According to Renamo Secretary General Clementina Bomba, the country has never held free, fair and transparent elections and what happened on the 9th was a crime against democracy.

"We, as Renamo, see the annulment of these elections as a way out, because we cannot accept the results, we cannot accept what happened on the 9th. It was a crime against democracy, an attack on peace in Mozambique," he said.

She was speaking at a meeting promoted by the civil society organization, Sala da Paz, which brought together political parties, with the exception of Frelimo, among the most prominent.

At the time, MDM President Lutero Simango, who had already shared this proposal, said that false results should not be accepted.

"We cannot accept results that reflect the will of the voters. So all that remains is for the elections to be annulled and repeated," he said, ruling out an attempt to recount the votes from the 26,000 or so polling stations.

The President of the ND, Salomão Muchanga, said that the CC should weigh up the results considering that the National Electoral Commission and the Technical Secretariat for Electoral Administration "form the crime syndicate".

"By now, the CNE should have apologized to the Mozambican people and produced a collective resignation."

In the person of its president, Albino Forquilha, Podemos advocated electoral justice.

"The fundamental problem is the denial of democracy, the electoral fraud that took place. We have to know who is actually planning, organizing and operating the electoral fraud, because if we don't know who is responsible, we'll take anyone and blame them for a problem they don't know about," he said.
