HARARE (Reuters) -Zimbabwe’s main opposition party the Citizens’ Coalition for Change (CCC) on Tuesday called for a fresh election after it disputed the result of last week’s vote and called it a fraud.
CCC deputy spokesperson Gift Siziba told a news conference that the party was calling on the African Union and southern African regional bloc SADC to facilitate a return to legitimacy in the southern African country.
The elections commission late on Saturday declared incumbent President Emmerson Mnangagwa of the ruling ZANU-PF party the winner of last week’s presidential vote, but analysts have widely questioned the credibility of the result.
