Africa-Press – Mozambique. <\/strong><\/span>The president of Mozambique and of its governing Frelimo party, Filipe Nyusi, on Monday called on its patry members to work for an \u201cexpressive, clear and convincing victory\u201d in the general elections scheduled for 9 October, at a meeting of the national council of Frelimo\u2019s youth wing.<\/p>\n

\u201cPrepare for an expressive, clear and convincing victory for Frelimo in the general, presidential, legislative and provincial assembly elections on 9 October,\u201d said Nyusi at the third session of the national council ofFrelimo\u2019s Youth League, the Mozambican Youth Organisation (OJM), which was taking place on Monday in Matola, on the outskirts of Maputo.<\/p>\n

Nyusi insisted that victory in the October general elections \u2013 in which he can no longer stand as a presidential candidate in because he has reached the constitutional limit of two terms as head of state \u2013 is the \u201ctop priority at the moment\u201d for Frelimo.<\/p>\n

The president said that party members should work \u201cwithout fear of probable questioning when they are blessed with victories\u201d \u2013 a reference to past opposition claims of electoral fraud \u2013 emphasising that the goal of a \u201chistoric victory\u201d in these elections can only be achieved with \u201csacrifice, work, unity and vigilance\u201d and calling for \u201cunity\u201d and \u201cconcord\u201d from Frelimo\u2019s youth wing in the run-up to the elections.<\/p>\n

The OJM national council opens a week of meetings of Frelimo organs, preceding the ordinary session of the party\u2019s central committee, its highest body between congresses, on 5 and 6 April.<\/p>\n

However, it is not yet clear whether the political commission will bring to the central committee meeting, for a vote, a list of prospective successors for Nyusi as candidate for Mozambique president in the October elections.<\/p>\n

Fernando Faustino, the secretary-general of Frelimo\u2019s veterans\u2019 wing, the Association of Combatants of the National Liberation Struggle (ACLLIN), which is also meeting this week in Matola, said on 18 March that the selection of a Frelimo candidate for the presidential elections is not on the agenda of the next central committee meeting.<\/p>\n

\u201cAs far as I know, on 5 and 6 March, the central committee will meet and already has its agenda for that meeting and, as far as I know, the question of the succession or presidential candidates is not on it,\u201d Faustino told journalists in the city of Nampula.<\/p>\n

He dismissed criticism that the process of choosing a Frelimo candidate for the October presidential elections is dragging on, stressing that \u201cFrelimo is organising itself in time\u201d for the elections.<\/p>\n

\u201cI think that\u2019s relative, how long does it take?\u201d asked the ACLLIN secretary-general rhetorically, while acknowleding that \u201cit\u2019s not an easy process.\u201d<\/p>\n

Faustino argued that the party has to select a candidate who matches the aspirations of the country\u2019s population and who has proven competence.<\/p>\n

Lusa tried unsuccessfully to get clarification from Frelimo\u2019s information department about the agenda for the central committee meeting.<\/p>\n

The current Frelimo leader and president, Nyusi, is constitutionally barred from running for office again because he is serving a second term at the head of state, having been elected in 2015 and 2019.<\/p>\n

Mozambique is to hold its seventh presidential and legislative elections on 9 October, as well as the second for provincial governors and the fourth for provincial assemblies.<\/p>\n
