An electoral stakeholder has applauded the Malawi Electoral Commission for nullifying parliamentary election results for Mtandire-Mtsiliza Constituency due to irregularities.
It follows a complaint by the Malawi Congress Party candidate George Zulu who said there were some irregularities which had put DPP candidate Alfred Gangata on the edge of claiming victory.
Upon assessing the complaint MEC has nullified the results and ordered a by-election in the constituency, a development that has pleased electoral stakeholders.
Commenting on the development, Unandi Banda, executive director for National Elections Support Network has said the disqualification is an indication that the commission conducted its work deligently.
