VUNDUZI Mozambique (Reuters) - The leader of Mozambique's opposition party Renamo registered to vote on Thursday, raising hopes for a peaceful October presidential election in a country where his movement has been conducting a low-level insurgency.
By registering to vote - just one day before a deadline for citizens to do so - Afonso Dhlakama would now be legally allowed to make another bid for the presidency himself, something he has yet to confirm he will do.
