Former coup leader Azali Assoumani was elected as president of Comoros, according to provisional results released Sunday, after last month's election was partially re-run due to violence and "irregularities".In a tight race, Assoumani's 41.43 percent haul beat the ruling party's candidate Vice President Mohamed Ali Soilihi, who received 39.66 percent of votes.Nigeria's two main labour unions have called for a general strike from Wednesday unless the government reverses a plan to increase petrol prices by up to 67 percent, a joint statement said on Saturday .
