Mozambique elections: Vote counting under way amid claims of fraud

10/10/2026 · Al Jazeera English

Descrição

Mozambique’s electoral commission is tallying general election results following polls on Wednesday that rights groups say are rigged and political opposition say show signs of fraud. The ruling FRELIMO party denies it and is seeking to extend its 49-rule. The electoral commis-sion says it’s running free and fair polls. The next president will face an economy battered by worsening cyclones, gas extraction projects delayed by armed conflict, and high levels of debt.

Al Jazeera’s Malcolm Webb reports from the capital Maputo.

This is a broad daylight robbery. But it's not the first time it happens nor will it be the last, unless we, the young people of Mozambique, do something about it

We never had free and fair elections in Mozambique

Amazing! You’re starting to see the truth! Please go deeper, there’s a lot more wrong!

This is so common now. Same script implemented in Pakistan where vote counting isn't through EVM. Have to move towards un-hackable automated systems so judgment is fair and acceptable and this system should be kept away from military.
