Wyclef Jean is celebrating after learning his pick for Haiti President has won the vote.<\/p>\n

\nThe Fugees star was back home in Haiti on Monday (04Apr11) for the first time since he was shot at while campaigning for presidential hopeful Michel Martelly last month (Mar11) – and he announced the election result via Twitter.com.\n<\/p>\n

\n In a tweet to followers, the hip-hop star wrote, “I am in Haiti right now the next president has been announced its @presidentmicky !!!!!!!!”\n<\/p>\n

\n Wyclef was travelling through the city of Delmas, near Port-au-Prince, on 19 March (11) when his car came under attack from a mystery gunman. He suffered a minor injury to his hand and was taken to hospital for treatment.\n<\/p>\n

\n He initially planned to challenge Martelly in the race for President but he was ruled ineligible to run for office last year (10).\n<\/p>\n

\n Martelly, who has no previous government experience, won the run-off against former First Lady Mirlande Manigat.\n<\/p>\n

\n The first results will be open to legal challenges before the final winner is declared later this month (Apr11).<\/p>\n
