Protests in Mozambique Lead to 1% Decline in Maputo Port Volumes
Mozambique's largest port, Maputo, experienced a 1% drop in volumes for last year, attributed to post-election protests that led to border closures and road blockages, the port operator revealed says CNBCAfrica. The protests erupted after the contested October 9 election, which was won by Daniel Chapo and his Frelimo party, in power since 1975. The unrest has resulted in over 300 deaths amid a security forces crackdown.
