Seychelles opposition candidate wins presidential election

Tue, 27 Oct 2020 18:21:57 +0200

Seychelles opposition candidate Wavel Ramkalawan has won the archipelago’s presidential election with 54.9 percent of valid votes cast, upsetting incumbent President Danny Faure.

“I declare … Ramkalawan as the elected candidate,” the electoral commission chairman Danny Lucas said on Sunday.

The opposition, narrowly defeated in a presidential election in 2015 and buoyed by a landmark victory in a parliamentary poll a year later, won its first presidential poll in the 40 years since Seychelles gained independence from Britain.

Ramkalawan, an Anglican priest and leader of the Seychelles Democratic Alliance, was running for the presidency for the sixth time. He lost the 2015 poll by 193 votes to James Michel in an unprecedented second round of voting.

Al Jazeera's Malcolm Webb reports.

But the opposition seems stronger than ever before.

Is there something new Faure’s party can offer the more than 90,000 people of Seychelles?

The president of the Republic of Seychelles, Danny Faure, talks to Al Jazeera.

Mon, 27 Jan 2020 02:38:30 +0200

The Seychelles - the Indian Ocean archipelago, a chain of 115 islands, is a byword for luxury holidays, Instagram-perfect beaches and has gained a reputation as a honeymoon destination

High-end tourism, from Europe mainly, helped pull the Seychelles from the brink of financial ruin after the 2008 economic crisis. Visitor numbers almost doubled in the decade that followed, to around 360,000 in 2018, nearly four times the country's population. But now the Seychelles is grappling with how many vis…
