The President of the Republic of South Africa, Cyril Ramaphosa has urged the people of Zimbabwe to accept the hotly disputed Presidential plebiscite.

The Zimbabwe Electoral Commission last night announced that Mnangagwa had won with 50.8%- avoiding a runoff in the process.

South African Presidential Spokesperson Khusela Diko said Ramaphosa was satisfied with the electoral process in Zimbabwe.

“The President is appealing to the people of Zimbabwe to accept the outcome of the polls.

President Ramaphosa has also described President Mnangagwa as a visionary man who is determined to rebuild Zimbabwe,” said Diko.

“The Republic of South Africa will continue to work with the Zimbabwean Government in various areas of cooperation,” added Diko.
