Mauritius' opposition leader Navin Ramgoolam was appointed prime minister, returning to the post a decade on after his coalition won a near clean sweep of seats in parliament in a general election.

• The opposition Alliance of Change in Mauritius has won 60 of the 64 seats in parliament following Sunday's general election.
• The man he has replaced, Pravind Jugnauth, 62, already acknowledged that his Lepep alliance was heading for a "huge defeat". It now has two seats in parliament compared to the 42 after the 2019 election.
• Mauritius is known as one of Africa's most stable democracies, but this election was tainted by a phone-tapping scandal, with leaked recordings of public figures posted online.
