Mozambique: Where are the EDR mechanisms in post electoral violence? https://www.freiheit.org/sub-saharan-africa/where-are-edr-mechanisms-post-electoral-violence
Election protests in Mozambique have escalated into a national crisis. Reports of election irregularities and tragic assassinations of opposition figures have led to a wave of demonstrations—and deadly confrontations. Observers from the EU and AU pointed to severe administrative failures and potential disenfranchisement of opposition voters, while Mozambique’s recent decline in democracy rankings has intensified doubts about the election’s legitimacy. As South Africa and Zimbabwe close borders to curb unrest spillover, the SADC Heads of State prepare for a pivotal meeting to discuss Mozambique’s future. This op-ed highlights the urgent need for Election Dispute Resolution mechanisms and transparent dialogue to address the disillusionment gripping Mozambican citizens and preserve peace in the region.
