African Union to observe elections in Malawi and South Africa

The elections come at a time the country is embroiled in a debate around the massive expenditure at incumbent President Jacob Zuma’s home in Nkandla. The ANC had cautioned that the Nkandla report not be used to campaign against it.

The party has already lodged a court case against the opposition Democratic Alliance for claiming in text messages that Zuma stole money from taxpayers.

The African Union is also sending an observer mission to Malawi for their May 20 presidential and general elections. The commission has approved for the deployment a team of 10 observers. This team will begin its work on April 12.
