São Tomé and Príncipe - Voters Hope for Change Amid Youth Exodus

During Sunday’s legislative, municipal, and regional elections in São Tomé and Príncipe, voters are expecting concrete solutions to social and economic issues, especially job creation and addressing youth exodus. Residents like Maria Nascimento and Aidolander Francisco urge politicians to take action to improve conditions for the modest populations and tackle national problems. The youth, making up a significant part of the 210,000 inhabitants, are leaving the country in search of better opportunities.
