Guy-Brice Parfait Kolelas, who came second in last month's
presidential election in Congo-Brazzaville, has told his supporters to accept
the result, the AFP news agency reports.
President Denis Sassou Nguessou won a third term in office
with more than 60% of the vote.
The opposition said that the vote was "marred by all
sorts of irregularities".
Mr Kolelas as says: "I accept the
Constitutional Court's verdict, however questionable."
He called on the president to help heal the divisions in the
country.
On Monday there was unrest in the capital Brazzaville, with
heavy exchanges of gunfire and government buildings were attacked and burned.
The government blamed the Ninja militia, which was active
during the civil war that ended more than 10 years ago.
