Malian President Keita Has Been Re-Elected

73 year old Malian President, Ibrahim Boubacar Keïta, was re-elected with 67 per cent of the votes in a run-off against opposition rival, Soumaila Cisse, the Ministry of Territorial Administration said on Thursday. The victory hands Keïta a second term in the mostly desert West African country where militant violence and claims of fraud by the opposition marred the poll. from NAN via IFTTT
