HARARE (AFP) — Robert Mugabe was declared the winner of Zimbabwe's one-man presidential run-off election on Sunday, with official results showing he won all 10 of the country's provinces.

Chief elections officer Lovemore Sekeramyi said that Mugabe had won a total of 2,150,269 votes against 233,000 for opposition leader Morgan Tsvangirai who boycotted the election but whose name still appeared on ballot papers.

"I therefore declare the said Mugabe, Robert Gabriel, the duly elected president of the Republic of Zimbabwe," he said.
