Left-wing ex-guerrilla Gustavo Petro has achieved a narrow victory in Colombia’s presidential election.
Polls opened for the second round of the Latin American nation’s presidential election on Sunday, with former guerrilla leader Petro facing surprise rival Rodolfo Hernandez, a 77-year-old businessman who managed to build up a nationwide political following by relying on TikTok and Facebook.
The race between Petro and Hernandez was the tightest in the country in recent memory.
