Maputo (MOZTIMES) – Bishops of the protestant Christian churches in Mozambique are opposed to the threat made by fugitive presidential candidate Venâncio Mondlane, to cancel Christmas celebrations this year, as part of his protest against the results of the general elections held on 9 October.
Last week, Mondlane repeated his now familiar threat to cancel this year’s Christmas and New Year holidays, replacing them with yet more street demonstrations intended to bring down the government.
Addressing his followers in a live broadcast transmitted on his Facebook page, Mondlane said “We’re going to lose the festivities, we’re not going to the beach, we’re not going to visit our families, because we are organising this country”.
