Today, top leaders from Malawi’s opposition parties, including the Democratic Progressive Party (DPP), United Transformation Movement (UTM), United Democratic Front (UDF), and Alliance for Democracy (AFORD), are holding a press conference in the city of Lilongwe.

The opposition leaders are expected to address a range of issues surrounding next year’s elections, including the political landscape, electoral reforms, and their visions for Malawi’s future.

Supporters and media representatives have already gathered at the venue, awaiting the arrival of the leaders who have not yet entered the conference room.
