The votes are being counted again in Malawi's presidential election - after an attempt by the current president to order a re-run of the poll. Joyce Banda tried to declare the election invalid - but the High Court stepped in to stop her. Al Jazeera's Haru Mutasa reports from Malawi's commerical capital, Blantyre.
Peter Mutharika has governed the small African nation of Malawi since 2014.
He is a lawyer and professor who ran for a second five-year term in elections earlier this year.
But opposition parties said there were irregularities in the vote - and the high court temporarily prevented the results from being released.
The electoral commission has since declared the 79-year-old Mutharika the winner of that vote leading to thousands of Malawians to protest against that decision.
Police fired tear gas at protesters as the government accused the opposition of attempting to overthrow Mutharika by force.
Now, as he begins his new term, Mutharika faces several issues - including corruption, poverty and healthcare.
We will ask him what he intends to do to tackle these challenges.

The new Malawi President Joyce Banda dismisses members of former President Bingu wa Mutharika's government including the information minister and the police chief.
The trial of former Malawian president Bakili Muluzi was adjourned last week, after the new prosecutor asked for 30 days to review the charges.
The lead prosecutor had recused himself in May.
