Chapo's administration has faced significant unrest after the elections, which resulted in approximately 300 deaths. Mondlane, contesting the legitimacy of Chapo’s victory, demands the release of political prisoners, compensation for victims of police violence, and medical care for the injured, presenting these as conditions for suspending protests. Chapo, aiming for an inclusive governance style, acknowledges ongoing discussions regarding Mondlane's potential role in his cabinet but emphasizes the importance of proper qualifications. As Mozambique navigates this turbulent climate, both leaders exhibit a willingness to consider options for collaboration that could foster a more stable future for the nation.
