Alculete Lopes de Araújo (born 11 October 1970) is a Mozambican politician who has been Mayor of Quelimane since December 2011.[1][2]
In 2011, de Araújo ran as the RENAMO candidate in municipal elections in Quelimane, defeating the FRELIMO candidate with 62.27% of the vote. In a subsequent election in 2013, the FRELIMO candidate was named as the winner; however, after allegations of voter fraud were raised, an investigation subsequently determined that de Araújo had won the election wad remained the Mayor of Quelimane.[3]
During the 2023 municipal elections, de Araújo was arbitrarily detained by police officers after visiting polling stations, with the police accusing him of "disturbing" the vote-counting process. He was released a few hours later without charge.[4][5]
