Judicial Service Commission (JSC) has assured the general public that their demands will be put into consideration when appointing Malawi Electoral Commission (MEC) chairperson.
The remarks came after the positing of MEC chairperson fell vacant following the stepping aside of Jane Ansah.
The public including the Malawi Congress Party (MCP) has been tipping the JSC to choose a person of higher morals as chairperson of MEC.
Ansah has resigned as MEC chairperson after months of criticism and ridicule following her team’s mismanagement of last May’s invalidated presidential election.
President Peter Mutharika has now written the Judicial Service Commission to nominate a potential Judge to chair the Malawi Electoral Commission.
A new set of MEC commissioners is also expected to be instituted by the 5th of next month when contracts for the current commissioners expire.
