Votes are being counted in Kenya where a new president is being chosen to succeed Uhuru Kenyatta.
Polling day was largely peaceful, but turnout was low, amid voter apathy and frustration over rising food prices, corruption and fears of violence.
The electoral commission estimated turnout at around 60%, well short of the 80% seen at the last election five years ago.
Kenyans are eagerly waiting to find out if the next leader is a former prime minister, Raila Odinga, who’s backed by Mr Kenyatta, or William Ruto, the deputy president.
People have also been electing county governors and MPs.
Official results are not expected for several days. A tight race is predicted.
Meanwhile, US Secretary of State Antony Blinken has said that Washington is very concerned about what he called credible reports that Rwanda has provided support to rebels in the neighbouring Democratic Republic of Congo.
Mr Blinken, speaking in the Congolese capital, Kinshasa, called on all parties to halt any co-operation with the M23 rebel group.
The conflict in eastern DR Congo was a key focus during his meeting with President Felix Tshisekedi on Tuesday.
