ANGOLA: Chooses a New Leader in Historic Polls

Angolans have voted in a parliamentary election marking the end of nearly four decades in power for President José Eduardo Dos Santos.
While Mr Dos Santos is not contesting the poll his party the MPLA is expected to be victorious when the results are announced.
The presidency is widely expected to pass to former Defence Minister João Lourenço contesting against Isias Samakuva his main challenger, from the MPLA's rival in the 27-year civil war.
Of upmost interest is the fact that Mr Dos Santos, whose 38-year reign makes him the world's second-longest serving president, will remain in control of the ruling MPLA party.  Analysts says the MPLA, which has been in power since independence from Portugal in 1975, is likely to win.
Eligible voters are expected to cast their votes on six candidates and their parties
