💨 Abstract

Mozambicans will vote in presidential and legislative elections next week, with ruling party candidate Daniel Chapo expected to succeed President Filipe Nyusi. Key issues facing the country include an Islamist insurgency in the northern gas-rich province of Cabo Delgado, disrupted gas projects worth over $50 billion, a debt scandal involving missing funds lent for fishing fleets, extreme climate shocks like droughts and cyclones, and periodic violence around elections.
