thumb|Afonso Dhlakama was the RENAMO-UE presidential candidate in 1999 and 2004. RENAMO began as an opposition group to the FRELIMO government during the Mozambican Civil War. It was supported first by Ian Smith's Rhodesia and apartheid-era South Africa in the late 1970s and early 1980s. South Africa signed the Nkomati Accord with Mozambique in 1984 and reduced support for RENAMO as part of the accord's plan to prevent cross-border hostilities between the countries. In 1992, Mozambican government and RENAMO signed the Rome General Peace Accords to end the civil war. RENAMO transitioned to a political party ahead of the first Mozambican elections in 1994.
