The Democratic Progressive Party (DPP) aspiring Ward Councillor for Mpemba Ward, Hector Kamiza is missing on ballot papers which were verified on Monday.
District Commissioner (DC), Bennet Nkasala confirmed of the issue and said Malawi Electoral Commission (MEC) has advised the Council to proceed with elections.
“This is did not come as a surprise to me because when MEC gazetted names of all candidates taking part in these elections, his (Kamiza) name was missing and when I notified him of the issue he said he has already taken the issue to the party’s regional office”
The issue was later resolved by the polling staff and he was allowed to cast his ballot.
