Ghani re-elected as Afghans president

Addis Ababa, February 18, 2020 (FBC) – Afghanistan President Ashraf Ghani will remain in power for another five years.

The country’s election commission on Tuesday announced the final results for the September 2019 presidential election and declared Ghani as the winner.

Ghani received 50.64% of votes, in the election that took place last September 28.

Challenger and chief executive Abdullah Abdullah received 39.53% percent of the vote.

The election results were delayed by five months as opposition politicians accused Ghani’s government of misconduct and claimed there were technical problems with counting ballots.
