#MOZAMBIQUE: Oppo. Boycotts Parliament, Threatens Secession of North, Central Regions

[world politics news]


Opposition Renamo Party leader Afonso Dhlakama has threatened to set up a "Republic of Central and Northern Mozambique." His party doesn't recognize results of October's election, in which ruling Frelimo Party presidential candidate Filipe Nyusi won 57 percent of the vote. Observers view Dhlakama's secession threat as a negotiating tactic.
