Mamadou Tandja, aged 71 and President of Niger, has won a referendum allowing him to continue in power for another term.
Turnout was at 4%, according to the opposition, and Tandja won a staggering 92% of the vote.
So, Tandja has been re-elected on the support of 3.6% of the population.
Why is it so difficult for third world dictators to give up power?
