A fresh wave of protests have erupted in Mozambique capital Maputo, following the October 9 election results announcement, which show that the ruling Frelimo Party has won  by over 70 percent  of the vote.

Tensions have been simmering in the southern African nation since last Saturday, when police officers shot and killed two opposition party figures.  The Frelimo party has ruled the country since 1975, when the nation gained independence from Portugal.

Frelimo's Daniel Chapo will now take over as the country's next president, from current president, Filipe Jacinto Nyusi. The elections revealed a shift with the opposing Podemo party's Venancio Mondlane only receiving 20 percent of the vote, while the largest opposition party Renamo, led by Ossufo Momade, got 5 percent of the vote.
