Tunisia election: Beji Caid Essebsi sworn in as president Tunisias President Beji Caid Essebsi has pledged to work towards national reconciliation after winning the countrys first free election. After taking his oath of office, he told parliament he would be the president of all Tunisians. The 88-year-old secured victory last week over incumbent Moncef Marzouki. Mr Essebsi was speaker of parliament under President Zine al-Abidine Ben Ali, who was ousted in 2011 in the first Arab Spring uprising. Tunisia is the only Arab country to have moved from authoritarian rule to democracy since a wave of popular uprisings spread across the region. On Monday, electoral authorities confirmed that Mr Essebsi had won a run-off vote against Mr Marzouki. Mr Essebsis secular Nidaa Tounes also won the largest number of seats in parliament, defeating the moderate Islamist party, Ennahda, in Octobers elections.
