AGP Executive Report

Last update: 4 hours ago

Elections in São Tomé and Príncipe: President Carlos Vila Nova has won a second five-year term outright, taking about 55.94% of the vote in Sunday’s presidential election and avoiding a runoff. He ran as an independent after a split with the ruling Independent Democratic Action (ADI) party, following the dismissal of Prime Minister Patrice Trovoada in 2025. His main rival, MP Nito Viegas D’Abreu, won about 41.42%, with two other candidates far behind. Voter turnout and process: Officials said the results were valid with no irregularities, but turnout was low, with many registered voters not casting ballots. Regional travel policy: Panama published an official visa-free list for 2026 that includes São Tomé and Príncipe, allowing eligible visitors up to three months without a visa.
