The Vanuatu parliament has elected Sato Kilman as the new Prime Minister ten days after the Supreme Court ruled that his previous tenure was unconstitutional.
Kilman won 29 votes and the rival candidate, Serge Vohor, 23 votes in the 52 member assembly.
Kilman had first been chosen as prime minister last December, but a legal challenge to his rule found that he had not been elected by secret ballot as prescribed in the constitution.
