Frelimo decides 2014

The successor to President Armando Guebuza is expected to be decided in September at one of two meetings of the governing Frente de Libertação de Moçambique’s Political Commission, its highest-ranking body.

He failed to change the constitution to allow a third term but aims nonetheless to call the shots as party leader, a post he will hold until at least 2017 (Vol 53 No 18).
