Senegal's President Also WIns Re-Election

Senegal's President Macky Sall has won a second term, of five years, following Sunday's election.

He took 58% of the vote in the poll in which he faced four challengers, but was accused of preventing some of his main rivals from running.

Two well-known opposition figures were barred from taking part because of corruption convictions.

The opposition candidates have rejected the results, but say a court challenge would be futile.
