Ansah says MEC using old laws to run fresh elections
Embattled Malawi Electoral Commission (MEC) chairperson Jane Ansah is drawing criticisms and stinging attacks after she said the pollster is preparing for the fresh election using the same old laws for the nullified ‘Tippexed’ May 21, 2019 election.
Ansah said this on FrIday in Blantyre during the National Elections Consultative Forum (Necof) meeting.
“We are preparing for the fresh elections using the same old legal frameworks that were used during the 2019 nullified elections since the parliament amended electoral bills are yet to be made laws,” she said.
On majority representation, Ansah has told political party representatives and other electoral stakeholders that the current law does not allow for a runoff, making it confusing on how to declare winner in the fresh election.
She also said MEC will accept all proofs of identification under the current law during the voter registration because President Peter Mutharika is yet to assent to the electoral reform bills.
Meanwhile, Ansah has told NECOF meeting in Blantyre the commission will respect the Constitutional Court ruling to hold fresh elections within 150 days.

Very clearly explained.
I think this lady Jane Ansah she is not alone,the devil is controlling her if not she needs to go for mental check up.
We really need a dotolo waza misala to look into this lady’s reasoning, the lady in DPP attire

Inunso mulibe Mfundo. Your name tell the whole story about you.
The president is not fit to work. He can not consent and sign the new law. Those waiting for him to sign forget!!!!!! In a few weeks time some one will have sign all….. He is incapacitated
What is the she devil Mary Nkosi doing in the commission, I thought she had resigned. There is no way MEC would use an act of parliament before the constitution is amended. The useless ruling was put before law students at the University of Land on, law faculty and all students laughed at this judgement of a sample of a useless ruling only fit to be done by judges who were sleeping on duty
Zione uzionadi ndipo sunati kkkkkkkk. Bwanji mayi wako Jane Ansah sanapange resign? Mary akhalebe konko adziona zimene mukupanga agalu inu.
I think Zione has useless brain hence thinking that the ruling was useless. Whether you like it or not change is just here.
this is the same witch who the nation that election disputes are not appealable. Yet we saw an appeal take place, does she really know what she is saying
Ansah is right. The constitution was not changed. The laws are the same.
Jane Ansah for president.
What you must know is that even after the concort had recommended Parliament to discuss 50+1, the Parliament rejected the 50+1 and the motion was thrown out. So we are back to simple majority. This is where the opposition gets a real-time nyekhwe.
Akumva pheeeiiini ndi DPP. Akumva pheeiinni ndi UDF. APM and Atupele Booomaaaa!
Kikikikiiiiiiii, you wish.
koma ku sukulu munapita agalu inu????
You do not know what you are talking about so its better to leave you in your ignorance.
concort ndi chani bwana Mwanyeredwa? Mwapanga kale za dzina lanu before voting date? kulidi nyekweeeeee
This is wishful thinking. You must be living in dreamland
