Liberia's Weah faces test over planned constitutional changes
Liberians are set to vote in a referendum on reducing presidential terms and lifting a ban on dual nationality. President George Weah supports the changes, arguing they benefit all Liberians, but faces criticism from opposition figures who fear he may use the reforms to extend his stay in power. The referendum also includes mid-term senatorial elections and is seen as a measure of Weah's support amid ongoing economic challenges. The opposition urges a boycott, citing a lack of clarity on the referendum's implications. The dual nationality issue is contentious, with some seeing it as an economic opportunity while others fear it could increase the influence of wealthy diaspora members.

Liberia presidency: Boakai looks set to upset Weah
With 86.71% of the results from Liberia’s Presidential run-off vote released, opposition leader Joseph Boakai is leading sitting President George Weah by a narrow margin of 50.58% to 49.42%. Boakai, representing the Unity Party, has polled 712,741 votes against Weah's 696,520 votes from the ruling Congress for Democratic Change. The National Elections Commission has covered 5,107 out of 5,890 voting places, indicating a 16,221-vote lead for Boakai. This marks the fourth electoral contest between the two, with Weah previously defeating Boakai in 2017.

Early Botswana Vote Tallies Point to Shock Loss For Ruling Party
Early election results in Botswana indicate a potential loss of power for the ruling Botswana Democratic Party (BDP), which has governed since 1966. The opposition, led by the Umbrella for Democratic Change and the Botswana Congress Party, has gained significant ground, winning several key parliamentary seats. The BDP's decline in popularity is attributed to an economic downturn linked to the diamond market slump. Final election results are anticipated soon, with implications for the country's leadership and economic strategies.

Botswana vote shaken up by angry ex-president, disillusion
Botswana's upcoming presidential election is marked by the return of former President Ian Khama, who seeks to unseat his successor, President Mokgweetsi Masisi.
