Civil groups in Balaka formed a local chapter for the Civil Society Elections Integrity Forum to help with upcoming elections. The group wants all voting to happen fairly and without problems. CSEIF Eastern Region leader Sammy Aaron explained that they need to make sure voters can cast ballots safely. Their main goals focus on keeping everything open and honest, with no fighting during election time.
Members must stay neutral about politics as they do their work. Aaron talked about how important it is for everyone to work together. He mentioned that media teams, village chiefs, and religious leaders need to cooperate for peaceful elections. The Balaka chapter selected Misheck Kafandikhale as their chairperson after voting. Kafandikhale promised he would put in lots of effort, making sure the September 16 election stays peaceful.
