 Constitutional Council confirms Djibouti president's 97% vote win


Djibouti's President Ismail Omar Guelleh was officially confirmed as winner of a sixth straight election with a final tally of 97.01% of the vote, the Constitutional Council said on Tuesday, AFP reported.


Guelleh, 78, has governed the strategically important country in the Horn of Africa since 1999.


Initial results a few hours after the April 10 vote showed he had taken 97.81%, against just one opponent.


"In this election, President Guelleh obtained 97.01 percent of the vote, for a total of 204,874 votes cast. His main opponent, Mohamed Farah Samatar, received 6,318 votes, or 2.99% of the total," Djibouti's official press agency said, citing the Constitutional Council.


Strategic location


Djibouti borders the Bab-el-Mandeb Strait, which provides access to the Red Sea from the Gulf of Aden, through which passes a large portion of trade between Asia and the West.


Djibouti has just over a million inhabitants, but has leveraged its location to turn it into an international military and maritime hub.
