No winners in Moz turmoil

Any conflict around the world is concerning. When it's on your doorstep, it's of even graver concern.

The violence and chaos rocking our eastern neighbour, Mozambique, is worrying.

The destructive protests in the aftermath of last month's elections, which saw the Frelimo party extend its rule to 49 years with 71% of the vote, forced South Africa to close the Lebombo border post this week.

There have been deaths and many injuries and the cost to the South African economy has been estimated at R10 million a day.
