          MAPUTO, Aug. 19 (Xinhua) -- Mozambican lawmakers said Monday that the two peace agreements recently signed by President Filipe Nyusi and main opposition leader Ossufo Momade will become law.

          "The transformation of the agreement makes it a legal tool becoming biding to all citizens, not only the two people involved in the signing process," said Edson Macuacua, chairperson of the First Commission of the Assembly of the Republic of Mozambique leading the process.

          Macuacua, member of parliament and chairperson of the 1st Commission of Constitutional Affairs, Human Rights and Legality, said that when the two agreements are transformed into law they will also gain legitimacy because the assembly of the republic is the representative house of all Mozambicans.

          "There is a difference between an agreement and a law, the agreement expresses a will, a political consensus, it has obligations and conducts abiding the signatories," he said.

          According to the chairperson, once the law is approved all the process related to the peace agreement such as the demobilization, disarming and reintegration will have a legal base.

          The two agreements, for ceasefire and final peace agreement respectively, were celebrated recently in the cities of Beira and Maputo, witnessed by representatives diplomatic missions, including the heads of state of African countries such as Rwanda, South Africa, Zambia, among others.
