Mozambican authorities have threatened to deploy soldiers to quell post-election protests that have engulfed the country after the opposition rejected the results of the country's polls which saw the governing Frelimo party extend its 49-year rule.
Thousands have taken to the streets in protests since the presidential election results were announced on Oct. 24, declaring Frelimo candidate Daniel Chapo as the outright winner, with the opposition planning what it says will be the biggest protests across the capital Maputo on Thursday.
