HARARE, Dec. 26, (Xinhua\/GNA) \u2014 Zimbabwean President and Southern African Development Community (SADC) Chairperson, Emmerson Mnangagwa, on Wednesday welcomed a court ruling that proclaimed Daniel Chapo the winner of the Oct. 9 general elections of Mozambique.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe ruling by that country\u2019s top electoral court, which upheld Frelimo party\u2019s victory, completes and thus exhausts all lawful processes on determining election results, in line with that country\u2019s national laws, and in keeping with SADC\u2019s Election Guidelines and expectations,\u201d Mnangagwa said in a statement. He said SADC expects all parties to the electoral process to abide by the decision of the Constitutional Council of Mozambique, noting that the ruling should provide a constitutional way forward for the country, and facilitate greater peace, normalcy, and stability in the southern African country. \u201cSADC stands ready to assist the incoming government and the people of Mozambique, in consolidating their electoral democracy on the basis of the aforesaid Court decision, which should be held sacrosanct by all,\u201d Mnangagwa said.<\/p>\n
Mnangagwa also urged the international community to respect the sovereign will of the people and the Republic of Mozambique, and encouraged constructive support towards peace, law, and order by all those concerned.<\/p>\n
On Monday, Mozambique\u2019s Constitutional Council, the body in charge of constitutional and electoral affairs, proclaimed Daniel Chapo the winner of the Oct. 9 general elections.<\/p>\n
SADC is a regional economic community comprising 16 member states, including Zimbabwe and Mozambique.
