Ruling Movement for Democracy party is expected to hand Ulisses Correia e Silva a second five-year term as PM.
Cape Verde’s ruling party is on course to maintain its majority following a parliamentary election despite criticism from the opposition over its handling of the COVID-19 pandemic and the economy, partial results have shown. The vote on Sunday presented the chance for the main opposition leader, Janira Hopffer Almada, to become the country’s first female prime minister, but her party’s loss ruled that out. The ruling Movement for Democracy (MpD) party is expected to hand Ulisses Correia e Silva a second five-year term as prime minister.
