Raul Domingos

Raul Domingos is a Mozambican politician.

He began his political career at the time of the Mozambican Civil War with Mozambique's largest opposition party Resistência Nacional Moçambicana (RENAMO). In 1992 he was on Renamos side one of the two signatories of the General Peace Agreement of Rome , which ended the civil war. He was parliamentary group leader of the parliamentary group Renamos and the only strong man in the party next to Afonso Dhlakama , the undisputed head of the former guerrilla organization and current political party Renamo. In 2000, Domingo was expelled from the party because he allegedly wanted to be bribed by the government. In 2003 he founded his own party, Partido para a Paz, Democracia e Desenvolvimento (Party for Peace, Democracy and Development), in which he tried to gather dissatisfied Renamo supporters. In the 2004 presidential election he received 85,815 or 2.73% of all votes nationwide as their candidate. For the presidential election in Mozambique in 2009 he was again nominated for the PDD, but his candidacy was not approved by the election examination commission for formal reasons.
