Dhlakama broke off his tour of the north yesterday to fly to Maputo. Initially he said he would only meet Nyusi if the Mozambican President accepted all of his demands in advance, then he said he would only meet Nyusi if he came to Cabo Delgado. Now he is in Maputo, but the meeting is in a hotel and not a government building, which will be seen as a neutral venue. Thursday deadline to take parliament seats Renamo continues to boycott national and provincial parliaments. A group of Renamo members elected to the parliaments met with Renamo president Afonso Dhlakama on Sunday 1 February asking to take their seats, but Dhlakama maintained the hard line and said "anyone who takes their seats would be insulting not Dhlakama, not Renamo, but the thousands of Mozambicans who voted for fair elections”. (MediaFax, 2 Feb) He argues that the elections were fraudulent and that he won the 2014 election, just as he says he won the four previous elections. The MPs should not take seats in what he sees as fraudulent parliaments.

  • MDM: a New Political Force in Mozambique?
    MDM: a new political force in Mozambique? Sérgio Chichava Instituto de Estudos sociais e Económicos (IESE) Maputo, Mozambique for the conference ‘Election processes, liberation movements and democratic change in Africa’ Maputo, 8‐11 April 2010 CMI and IESE Abstract One of the highlights of the general elections of 2009 was the emergence and participation of a new political party, the Democratic Movement of Mozambique (MDM), whose formation resulted from the exclusion of Daviz Simango from Renamo by this party's leader, Afonso Dhlakama. This paper discusses the rise of MDM in the wider context of politics in the Sofala province, an important region in the centre of Mozambique that historically has had difficult relations with a southern elite of Frelimo. Keywords: MDM, Daviz Simango, Renamo, Sofala, Mozambique. 1 Introduction One of the highlights of the general elections of October 2009 was the emergence and participation of a new political party, the Democratic Movement of Mozambique (MDM). The MDM party was created in Beira, capital of Sofala, a province in Central Mozambique, in March 2009, as a result of the exclusion of Daviz Simango from Renamo by this party's leader, Afonso Dhlakama. The emergence of this new party brought hope and high expectations amongst many Mozambicans. Indeed Mozambican voters who had become disenchanted with the performance of the opposition parties, in particular with Renamo, hoped to avert the collapse of multipartism and the return of an all‐powerful Frelimo dominating the political scene. MDM stated that its main goal was to build a true political alternative to Frelimo and to bring a new political approach in the country.
