Crowds have gathered in the streets of Togo's capital, Lome, setting up burning barricades, throwing rocks and attacking cars after their candidate lost in the presidential election.
The ruling party candidate, Faure Gnassingbe, won the election with 60.22% of the vote, according to provisional results from the electoral commission.
Mr Gnassingbe is the son of Togo's former president Gnassingbe Eyadema, who died in February after 38 years in power.
Main opposition candidate Emmanuel Bob-Akitani, representing a six-party coalition, won 38.19% of Sunday's vote. Turnout was around 64%.
All sides have accused their rivals of fraud and intimidation during an election which has been marred by street fighting between rival activists and security forces in the capital.
