Frelimo in a sentence

Last Tuesday, the local Frelimo secretary Armindo Baulene banned him from covering the Frelimo campaign.

Frelimo candidate Daniel Chapo was declared the winner of the presidential election with more than 70% of the vote.

Mozambique’s election commission today Daniel Chapo and his ruling party Front for the Liberation of Mozambique (Frente de Libertação de Moçambique, Frelimo) winners of the country’s October 9 general elections.

Opposition figurehead Venancio Mondlane, 50, leader of the small Podemos party, called a nationwide strike from Thursday to November 7 after the ruling Frelimo party’s Daniel Chapo was declared winner of the election.

President Filipe Nyusi is expected to step down early next year at the end of his two-term limit and hand over to Frelimo’s Daniel Chapo, who won the presidential election with 71 percent of the vote, according to the electoral commission.

The accused Frelimo government was still to respond to requests for comment at the time of writing.

Violence and protests continue to rock Mozambique after the disputed elections of October 9. The election predictably announced that Frelimo had won.

With a neat Afro hairstyle and often dressed in a waistcoat, Mondlane’s pre-election rallies drew young boisterous crowds of people who felt abandoned by the Frelimo government.

Frelimo and MDM members and their allied civil society members took office in May 2013, while Renamo and its allied civil society members took office in March and April 2014.

He had been the coordinator of Frelimo's clandestine network in Lisbon, and continued this work when he returned to Mozambique, prior to the country's independence.

Privately owned stations STV, Miramar, and TV Sucesso were also imbalanced in favour of Frelimo.

The 48-year old Jaime Bessa Neto has a master's degree in environment and his career has been largely within Frelimo, as a member of parliament and in various municipal posts in Beira.

A flagrant case was when an MDM flyposting group, was interrupted by a group wearing T-shirts of the ruling Frelimo Party.

After gaining independence from Portugal in 1975, Mozambique collapsed into a 16-year civil war pitting Renamo - an anti-Communist guerrilla force backed by white-ruled Rhodesia and apartheid South Africa - against the Marxist ruling Frelimo party.

AIM confirmed this with the Frelimo Secretary for Communication and Image, Caifadine Manasse, who said Matavel had been on the Central Committee about ten years ago.

As far as Manasse knew, Matavel was still a member of Frelimo at the time of his death.

As for what Memba can expect from a future Frelimo government, Mesquita said it will pave the road from Memba to Nacala-a-Velha, provide more electricity and communications in the localities of the interior, and more health centres.

But the peace deal has given Renamo hope of winning more political power in a country dominated by Frelimo since its independence from Portugal in 1975.

Frelimo can bring the corrected nomination papers back at any time.

Frelimo supporters accused him of serving Renamo interests.
