Mauritians await poll result as Prime Minster Jugnauth seeks second term
Mauritians are Monday expecting results from Sunday’s parliamentary elections with Prime Minister Pravind Jugnauth seeking a second five-year term. His main challenger is Navin Ramgoolam of the opposition Alliance for Change. Davina Murden, a Mauritian independent political scientist based in Pretoria, South Africa, tells VOA’s James Butty, voter turnout was higher than in 2019, but that a third consecutive term for Prime Minister Jugnauth might be a challenge since this was the only election he contested without his father.
