Zimbabwe's President Emmerson Mnangagwa on Sunday took the oath of office before thousands of people following an election victory that was disputed by his main rival and amid questions over the country's democratic credentials by U.S. election observers.

Mnangagwa took the oath before Chief Justice Luke Malaba, who, together with eight other Constitutional Court judges last Friday dismissed main opposition leader Nelson Chamisa's petition against Mnangagwa's July 30 win.
