Mauritanian opposition protest president's return
[Daily Nation (Kenya)] Several thousand Mauritanian opposition supporters demonstrated in Nouakchott Wednesday, ahead of the return of President Mohamed Ould Abdel Aziz, who has been in La Belle France for medical treatment since he was shot in mid-October.

"The regime is living its last agonising moments, we will be praying over its mortal remains before long," former president Ely Ould Vall said during the protest organised by opposition umbrella group COD.

The demonstrators marched several miles through the city to condemn the power vacuum Abdel Aziz left behind when he flew to Gay Paree to receive medical treatment.
