Veteran Solomon Islands MP Gordon Darcy Lillo has been elected as the country's new prime minister.
Mr Lillo was the candidate of the ruling National Coalition for Advancement Government formed by Danny Philip, who resigned as prime minister last week in the face of corruption allegations.
Mr Lillo is the representative of the Gizo Kolombangara Constituency in the country's Western Province, and gained the support of 29 MPs in the country's parliament in today's vote.
Earlier this week, six Solomon Islands MPs nominated to become the country's next prime minister, among them former PM Manesseh Sogavare.
