Welcome to the vibrant political landscape of Mozambique, where the upcoming presidential and legislative elections are stirring up heated debates and promising change. In the midst of this fervor, Bishop Alberto Vera Arejula, O. de M., of Nacala Diocese, has called for unity and inclusivity in the electoral process.
Recently, Bishop Vera shared his message of peace and celebration with the faithful at the Shrine of the Blessed Virgin Mary, Our Lady of Africa. He emphasized the importance of fostering a spirit of harmony and cooperation as Mozambique prepares to choose its new leaders on 9 October.
With contenders like Daniel Chapo of the ruling Frelimo party, Ossufo Momade from the opposition Renamo party, Lutero Simango representing the MDM, and independent candidate Venâncio Mondlane, the race is heating up with campaign promises and spirited exchanges.
As the nation braces for a transition of power, let us heed Bishop Vera’s call to embrace peace and solidarity in the electoral process. Let us come together as Mozambicans to ensure that the upcoming election is a moment of unity and progress for our beloved country.
