Malawi's re-elected President Professor Arthur Peter Mutharika on Sunday hinted at hiring a 20 member “representative and functional" Cabinet which will be ready by June 21.

Re-elected President Professor Arthur Peter Mutharika declared on Sunday “there was no rigging” in the May 21 poll that he won with more than 150,000 votes in the presidential race.

MEC Chairperson Justice Jane Ansah on Sunday called upon Malawians to be patient and calm as the electoral body was waiting for the court verdict of the MCP injunction which stops them from announcing the presidential results.

MEC Chairperson Justice Jane Ansah has bashed politiicians for making "political statements  that can stir unfavourable orientation of the public towards the Commission" and that imply declaration of victory.
