Les Malawites se rendent aux urnes demain pour une \u00e9lection pr\u00e9sidentielle \u00e2prement disput\u00e9e, qui voit l’ancien pr\u00e9sident Peter Mutharika tenter un retour politique spectaculaire \u00e0 l’\u00e2ge de 84 ans.<\/p>\n
Mutharika, qui a dirig\u00e9 le pays de 2014 \u00e0 2020, affronte le pr\u00e9sident sortant Lazarus Chakwera, l’accusant de ruiner l’\u00e9conomie et de mal g\u00e9rer des secteurs cl\u00e9s. Bien qu’il ait un jour laiss\u00e9 entendre qu’il en avait fini avec la politique, Mutharika affirme revenir pour \u00ab sauver la nation \u00bb. Ses partisans, notamment dans les communaut\u00e9s rurales et informelles, affirment que la vie \u00e9tait meilleure sous sa direction.<\/p>\n
\u00ab Lorsque Peter Mutharika \u00e9tait au pouvoir, il a r\u00e9duit le prix des engrais pour que chacun puisse cultiver \u00bb, explique Eliza Justin, commer\u00e7ante au march\u00e9 de Lilongwe. Les gens pouvaient vendre et acheter de la nourriture. Cela leur permettait d’avoir ce qu’ils voulaient. Mais ce n’est plus le cas aujourd’hui, car les gens se bousculent pour acheter du ma\u00efs.<\/p>\n
Mutharika a perdu face \u00e0 Chakwera lors d’une nouvelle \u00e9lection historique en 2020, apr\u00e8s l’annulation par la Cour constitutionnelle du Malawi de l’\u00e9lection controvers\u00e9e de 2019. Les juges ont cit\u00e9 de nombreuses irr\u00e9gularit\u00e9s, notamment la falsification des bulletins de vote et l’utilisation de liquide correcteur Tipp-Ex pour falsifier les r\u00e9sultats. La d\u00e9cision de la Cour a marqu\u00e9 une \u00e9tape d\u00e9mocratique majeure\u00a0: c’\u00e9tait la premi\u00e8re fois qu’un r\u00e9sultat pr\u00e9sidentiel \u00e9tait annul\u00e9 au Malawi.<\/p>\n
Aujourd’hui, alors que le pays est confront\u00e9 \u00e0 des difficult\u00e9s \u00e9conomiques et \u00e0 une frustration croissante, les \u00e9lecteurs devront d\u00e9cider s’ils accordent une seconde chance \u00e0 Mutharika ou s’en tiennent \u00e0 Chakwera.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
