00:21This is what Press Africa tells us, this project that proposes a presidential regime with a
00:27once-renewable 7-year mandate arouses mixed reactions among the population.
00:34Political personalities such as Roger Abesolo criticize the text for its potential to
00:40establish a strong man instead of a solid institution, while others such as
00:46Florenté Moussavou call for a vote yes for the future of the country.
00:50The referendum also marks the first electoral test for the military in power since
00:56the coup d'état of 2023, written in its Press Africa columns.
01:00South Africa has decided to temporarily close its main point of passage with Mozambique,
01:07the post of Lebombo, due to security incidents reported.
01:12According to BNV TV, which gives the information, this decision was taken to protect travelers
01:18and merchants from violent demonstrations in Resa Nangarsia, which have led to
01:24destruction.
01:25South African authorities are collaborating with their Mozambican counterpart to monitor
01:31the situation and consider a rapid reopening.

02:40against HIV and screening kits in isolated villages.
02:44Information from Africa News, this innovative method allows to avoid delays caused by
02:51degraded road infrastructure and difficult weather conditions, increasing
