Election Protests are Impacting Malawi Tourism Sector - Govt

The Minister of Industry, Trade and Tourism, Salim Bagus has said the anti-Jane Ansah protests have impacted  negatively on tourism. Protesters are demanding that Ansah, the chairperson of Malawi Electoral Commission, resign, for what they say is the mismanagment of the recent election in which President Peter Mutharika won a second term.
