July 20 demo set: Activists call on Ansah, MEC commissioners resign
Human Rights Defenders Coalition (HRDC) say they will hold a peaceful protest on June 20 to force Malawi Electoral Commission (MEC) and other commissioners resign.
HRDC chairperson Timothy Mtambo said the resort to protests follows MEC failure to respond to HRDC letter dated June 4 for Ansah to resign following her dismal performance to manage the May 21 presidential poll.
“We are calling upon her to resign because of her failure and the whole commission to handle the presidential results,” said Mtambo.
He said the massive malpractices and irregularities have forced the rights groups to hold the protests in Blantyre, Lilongwe, Zomba and Mzuzu.
They will hold PEACEFUL DEMONSTRATION to FORCE….. I can see facts crushing each other.
Facts are crushing each other in the first stanza. They said they shall hold PEACEFUL DEMONSTRATION to FORCE….
Arrogant MEC says she can not resign. Only APM can sack her. So she did what she did coz she was and is serving her master.
This nonsense of the president choosing MEC whatever should be abolished.
Malawians should be choosing thru ballot. In that way that person will be serving Malawians not one person, president. Malawians should be able to fire that individual if they do Madando style.
A Mtambo tazingodyani ndalama za ma gay. Simumadziwika ndi zinthu zabwino. Mumadziwika ndi maufulu achilendo inu. A Malawi tatiyeni nafenso mituyi tisamangoidendekera. Tizigwiritsa ntchito kuganiza.

Is this failure a POLITICIAN or a HUMAN RIGHT ACTIVIST? I think it’s high time he starts politics …Timothy and his friend has proved to us that they are nothing but total failures – they recieve millions of kwachas in the name of innocent Malawians who usually face the consequences of participating in demos. You are very EVIL because your own children do not take part in these demos but rather you organize demos for other people to take part so that whatever happens to them in the streets, your children and relatives are very safe at home and others abroad. Timothy and Trapence you are so EVIL you make others suffer for you to eat on the heads of innocent people. Let me urge my fellow Malawians let’s just continue seeking the face of God in PRAYERS other than going to streets just to please this EVIL and GREEDY people who have no solution to our problems.
Good and responsible thinking Jamax. This shows that you are living. We can’t afford to sacrifice the future of our children on the altar of politics or irresponsible human rights. Thumbs up baba.
A Mtambo a chitsiru awa. Mmene Arafat amachita abuse position yake bwaji sanapange ma demo? Demos for waht? Mwaona kuti wamagazi mmanja wanuyo wagwa nayo? Plot yonse mumakambira ndi oChatsikawo muyesa sitinamvere mmbuyomu? You will be on the streets for the next five years anzanu akuchita chitukuko.
Kkkkkkkkk ! Makape ! This will not take you anywhere.
human rights NGO now majoring in electioneering. You have really lost your way here HRDC antigovernmental organisation
We are more than prepared to lose our lives for the freedom of our mother land –‘-we are expecting chilima and chakwera at the demos —
Try to rectify the DATE on this post because on the main heading it shows that demo will be on 20 July but when u go down the post it shows 20 June,
So which is which??
Hule ili, liziona
Unya mtambo. Kodi your job is to hold demos?

You Human Rights guys shud change how we shud be handling protest that demand resignations coz the one day move no one has ever resigned & they look at us as fools the best shud be once we go to the street no more going back home till they resign.
