MOLDOVA ELECTS A NEW FEMALE PRESIDENT

Moldavians have elected a new female President Maia Sandu (48) after she beat the incumbent Igor Dodon. Sandu had a very uphill task to convince the voters. Her opponents said she was unmarried. Thus, unsuitable for Presidency or Premiership while there have been unmarried Presidents famous of them being former  Presidents Ian Khama (Botswana),  Malawian Hastings Kamuzu Banda,  Bishop Michael Christodoulou Mouskos famously Makarios III of Cyprus, South Korean President Park Geun Hye, Dutch Prime Minister Mark Rutte, Bolivian President Evo Morales, Philippines President Benigno Aquino III, Lithuanian President Dalia Grybauskaite and incumbent Russian President Vladimir Putin among others. Despite that she won. On the same note, this month marked the fall of the incumbents. In the neighbouring Malawi, Peter Mutharika lost to Lazarus Chakwera while Donald Trump to Joe Biden just recently in the US. Similarly, Kolinda Grabar-Kitarović (Croatia) lost to Zoran Milanović. Sandu becomes the only female winner while Grabar-Kitarović becomes the only loser.  Congrats big girl on your victory.
