Elections 2009 Mozambique (Maputo)
27 October 2009
The government of Malawi has not allowed Mozambicans to vote except in the consulates and embassies, according to Felizberto Naife at a STAE press conference this morning.
CNE had intended that Mozambicans in Malawi could vote in five different locations, but Malawi would not permit this. It is the only country that has barred voting outside embassies and consulates.
Meanwhile, Naife also said that STAE has been unable to use a helicopter in Niassa province due to lack of fuel. This could cause some problems in getting voting materials to the most remote polling stations.
