Mwenifumbo pens MEC over Mwalwanda eligibility for parliamentary race

Karonga central losing parliamentary candidate, Frank Mwenifumbo, has written the Malawi Electoral Commission (MEC), giving the pollster a 24 hour deadline for the body to produce evidence that Leonard Mwalwanda, newly elected member for Karonga Central Constituency is a registered voter.

Mwenifumbo: Don’t give up the fight

Mwenefumbo who lost to Mwalwanda in the November 10 by-elections is challenging the outcome of the polls on the basis that Mwalwanda was not a registered voter as such he was not supposed to contest.

Wesley Mwafulirwa,  lawyer for Mwenifumbo has confirmed that his client has given MEC up to close of business today to produce Mwalwanda’s voter certificate.

According to Mwafulirwa if MEC fails then his client will proceed to seek legal redress.

MEC spokesperson Sangwani Mwafulirwa has confirmed receiving Mwenefumbo’s request but could not give more details.

  1. kaya ndi registered voter kaya si registered voter koma choona chake ndichakuti anthu asankha iyeyo osati inu. mufuna mukhale MP kwa anthu oti sanakusankheni?

  2. This political prostitute is fooling himself, kodi paja school njee eti. The same happened to MCP candidate in LLW North West, the winner Boti registered in Zomba in 2019, they were no transfers in these bye elections. Palibe chanu a Mwenefumbo on this issue.

  3. The best is for MEC to wait until he goes to court,then produce evidence.

    He should pay charges,awone polekela.

  4. Leonard Mwalwanda registered in Lilongwe City West Constituency on August 8, 2018 only that during the ended by-election, there were no transfers.

    The laws are clear, one can register anywhere and contest in a constituency of his choice as long as he is a registered voter.

    So, iyiyi mwagwa nayo wawa.

    1. Let them just produce the evidence to satisfy the demands of the complainant. Don’t think MEC has changed. Alfandika , Muhabi Chisi are still there. These are people who brought to court fake documents. What can stop them from getting a fake registration for Mwalwanda?
