President Lazarus Chakwera has thanked Malawians for their trust and urged them to protect national development projects by voting wisely in the upcoming general elections. Speaking at the MCP’s final campaign rally at Civo Stadium in Lilongwe, Chakwera committed to continuing his push to build a “new Malawi,” citing the expansion of progress made under his administration.

He called on communities to safeguard public infrastructure like roads, railways, schools, and hospitals, stating these investments are crucial for the nation’s future. The President vowed to take decisive action to improve government performance if re-elected, warning that underperforming officials would be replaced.
Information Minister Moses Kunkuyu and MCP Secretary General Richard Chimwendo Banda echoed the message, asking voters to choose Chakwera for his clear development vision. The rally marked the official close of the MCP’s campaign ahead of the September 16 polls.
The Second Deputy Director of International Affairs in the Malawi Congress Party (MCP), Chalo Mvula, has issued a passionate appeal to Malawians ahead of next week’s elections.
Writing on his official Facebook page, Mvula described Tuesday’s vote as “pivotal” for the nation’s future.
He said the ballot would define the country’s direction for the next five years.
He posed a sharp question to Malawians: should the country continue building on the strong foundations of progress, or risk returning to what he called the dark days of rampant corruption, crippling nepotism, and the disregard for the rule of law?

At the same time, Mvula bemoaned the absence of a diaspora voting law, saying it was unfortunate that Malawians abroad remain excluded from a democratic process that will shape their nation’s future.
He argued that the lack of diaspora voting rights undermines inclusivity and denies citizens living outside the country the opportunity to participate in decisions that directly affect Malawi’s development.
According to Mvula, the choice before Malawians who will cast their ballots remains clear.
He argued that safeguarding democracy and ensuring continued development requires Malawians to stand firm in their decision.
Mvula called on the electorate to move forward together by retaining MCP leader Dr. Lazarus Chakwera.
He further endorsed the leadership ticket that pairs President Chakwera with Vitumbiko AZ Mumba, Pr Eng, as Vice President.
In his words, the re-election of the duo represents a vote for stability, continuity, and progress.
He summed up his message with a strong rallying cry: “Vote for progress. Vote to re-elect Dr. Lazarus Chakwera as President of Malawi and Vitumbiko AZ Mumba, Pr Eng, as the Vice President.”
Mvula stressed that the future of Malawi rests in the hands of the people.
He added that the decision they make at the ballot box will determine whether the country consolidates its gains or risks regression.
Chalo Mvula’s message underscores the defining stakes of the 2025 elections: continuity versus regression.
By framing the vote as a clear-cut choice between progress and past governance failures, he attempts to anchor the MCP’s campaign narrative around stability, accountability, and development.
At the same time, his concerns about diaspora voting expose a weakness in Malawi’s democratic system.
For a party championing inclusivity, the absence of legislation enabling Malawians abroad to vote remains a significant gap.
Until addressed, it will continue to raise questions about whether Malawi’s democracy truly speaks for all its citizens.
As Mighty Mukuru Wanderers gear up for their crucial CAF Confederations Cup preliminary match against Botswana’s Jwaneng Galaxy FC, the team has entered into a strategic partnership with Mpira Mmudzi Mwathu (MMM) to boost matchday organization and fan experience.
The highly anticipated match is scheduled for Sunday next week at Bingu National Stadium in Lilongwe, where the Nomads will be looking to capitalize on home advantage to secure progression to the next stage of the tournament.
According to Wanderers’ Commercial Director, Greyson Chapita, MMM will handle corporate box ticket sales, giving fans a smooth and professional service when booking premium seating.
“Mpira Mmudzi Mwathu has a proven track record in handling football logistics. Their professionalism over the years has been outstanding and we believe this partnership will not only benefit Wanderers but also raise the standard of football match management in Malawi,” Chapita said.
Apart from ticketing, MMM will also provide ball boys and escorting kids, who will walk out with the players before kickoff a move that creates a vibrant and professional atmosphere for the occasion.
MMM’s Operations Manager, Linda Kasenda, expressed excitement about the deal, saying it shows the respect and trust the organization has earned within the football community.
“We are delighted to work with a historic club like Mighty Wanderers. This partnership highlights the recognition of our efforts to promote and develop football in the country,” said Kasenda.
The partnership is being viewed as a major step toward modernizing Malawian football with hopes that other clubs will follow suit in improving matchday structures, ticketing systems and fan engagement.
Wanderers, who are intensively preparing for the game in Blantyre, are banking on passionate home support at the Bingu Stadium to overcome a tough Jwaneng Galaxy side known for its continental experience and tactical discipline.
Fans have been urged to buy tickets early to avoid last-minute congestion, with details of corporate box packages expected to be released during the week.
The Democratic Progressive Party (DPP) torchbearer, Peter Mutharika, has likened himself to the biblical Moses, declaring that he is ready to lead Malawi to “Canaan.”
Speaking at a whistle-stop rally in Phalombe Boma, the former president assured his supporters that he has the vision and determination to revive the country’s struggling economy.
Mutharika pledged that under his leadership, Malawians would experience better livelihoods and renewed hope.
He further expressed confidence that he will secure victory in the upcoming September 16 elections with the required 50 percent plus one vote threshold.
Addressing the crowd, Mutharika boldly predicted that he would win what he described as “101 percent of the votes” from Phalombe District.
The statement drew loud cheers from supporters who had gathered in large numbers to welcome him.
Mutharika’s message combined biblical imagery with political promises, aimed at rallying supporters behind his candidacy.
The Phalombe rally forms part of the DPP’s final push to consolidate votes ahead of polling day.
Concluding Analysis
Peter Mutharika’s campaign rhetoric in Phalombe highlights his strategy of blending religious symbolism with promises of economic revival to energize his support base.
By positioning himself as a leader with both divine-like mission and political experience, he aims to inspire trust and loyalty among Malawians weary of economic challenges.
However, his bold claim of winning overwhelming support in Phalombe underscores both his confidence and the high stakes of the upcoming election.
As September 16 approaches, the question remains whether Mutharika’s message of a return to “Canaan” will resonate strongly enough nationwide to secure the decisive majority he anticipates.
