let's take this further now as abbc News International editor sop mukas joining us live for this discussion Sophie the situation in mosm Beque has been a concern for many things seem to become at the weekend but the worry is that as we just heard even in that report protesters may be regrouping a little later on today what's the latest well we know that uh the leader of the party that's likely going to be the opposition should uh the results continue to be the way they are or there's no intervention that is monani is going to
address his people virtual today tonight and we expect that he will give instructions in terms of what they must do because what we are told is that they want to put pressure ahead of the meeting of sadic so that sadic can invite some of the uh opposition uh leaders or members or Representatives or they can invite the legi the religious organization the Catholic church that is trying to mediate uh in this uh impass so that they can uh tell the heads of state and government later uh in the week uh what has transpired during elections
and perhaps present evidence because when you make those allegations you must also present evidence there's no way sadic will just listen to the he say and therefore I think what they have to do what they will be doing it will be collecting evidence that they can share with sadc but as you know that this is a summit of the leaders later this week you cannot be in the assembly as a person who's not a leader of government and therefore maybe on the margins of that meeting then you can send people to engage them as we've
seen previously where there were issues in the region where the leaders would meet but those who are part of these negotiations who are not part of government in that particular country will be in the hotel and will be called and meet leaders in the and close sessions in the room to get information and that information will be communicated to the leaders but uh that's all what we know but I think all eyes will be on mamb Beek tonight to hear what mon Lana is going to say he's currently in Europe as I pointed out a
few days ago that he left mzabi came to South Africa and he went straight to Sweden in in in in in Europe and he is expected to address virtual unfortunately won't be able to take that address life because of the language barrier you know translation Portuguese and at the same time you speak about sadic this is a body that will now be under scrutiny again given what took place when it comes to the elections in Zimbabwe the handling of that matter thereof and a number of issues as well so certainly a number of those who
are monitoring this will be interested to see if these principles of democracy and elections that are upheld by this organization will come into play yes let's take a listen at what a member of Montana's party had to say you saw him speaking in that package but let's take further the discussion and hear what he had to say about uh the sadic and what we can expect let's take a lesson the court has got the last say and normally they've got 15 days but because of the complexity of this process the court asked for further 20
days meaning that probably by the 15th of next month that's when we are going to have the final result but there is one good point is the court asked the national electoral Commission to explain why are there so many differences between the elections for the provincial assembly for the National Assembly and for the president it doesn't make sense well you can hear the passion there and I think one thing that he spoke about also is how the countries in the region particularly those that are led by the former Liberation organizations they don't trust them that
much but still they they still feel they can trust South Africa much as uh in the government of national Unity you have President Raposa leading the government they still feel that President ramma Pasa can do something and they also spoke about a conversation that Kaya had with the former president of South Africa taboi calling for cool heads and calling all stakeholders to talk to avoid the war because you know what happened in Muto years ago and in mosambi particularly during that Civil War where many people died and you also have that problem in gabo Delgado
you don't want the insurgents to take advantage of the situation or to see people returning to the bush and uh you see again Rebel movements and therefore I think it's critical for that meeting in Harari to come up with something to ensure that uh there's progress in trying to mediate to this issue and as he says there it's a very delicate one um and whichever way that they handle it really needs to be one that is dealt with delicately but also Sophie there's another developing Story the president of Busan announcing a new cabinet and a
lot of people are talking about this and it's all young people well good story to tell that clearly democracy is holding smooth transition today they announcement of cabinet and as you pointed out very very young people you also have a sit situation that the vice president is also the Minister of Finance and uh with economics background you also have the Minister of Foreign Affairs and I'm told he also studied here in South Africa and I think he's got also the media background and you can see that uh he did uh practice exactly what he said
he was going to do in terms of bringing young people anyway he is not so young but is not that old and I think countries will be watching young people will be watching in other countries and maybe we might see more young blood in different parts of uh uh the continent particularly in the sadc region let's take a listen at what you had to say because the danger here you find a situation where people are fighting to get new sheriff in town you have the new president most of the time from the opposition a year
on people are disappointed and I asked him exactly that that it's well and good to say there's new blood there's transformation there's young people but the issue is how confident are you that you will deliver yeah because if you want to be reelected do the right thing Serve the People it shouldn't be about you if you don't 5 years will be here very soon let's take a Liston when I ask him about the promise first let me make it clear and be upfront about the fact that we will not disappoint but to get to your
question see the people who have these expectations are mature and sensible people they appreciate the gravity of the problems that they face on a daily basis they know what the solutions to these problems would be in the short medium to long term and they want these problems to be solved that's the broad bottom line they want these problems solved and solved quickly we have laid out Ambitions we have put down an ambitious plan that has resulted in these promises and undertakings to the people so there's another story though that's developing I mean while some are
still you know recovering from the huge blow that was suffered by the bdp um which held on to power for nearly six decades in bwana macius it seems prime minister Prine jth considered defeat in parliamentary election unfortunately he did and I think uh I don't know what's happening in the sadic region mozambik uh now the tension and bana it was a smooth transition South Africa when the a lost majority it was a smooth transition macius is the same the leader accepting that he has lost elections and now the focus is on Namibia will swapo be
able to defend its territory and you speak about Liberation movements and the broader conversation is are they still um you know going to be the answer bana decided differently and as you say Namibia will be an interesting one but thank you so much for that update there that's sabc News International editor sopie m
