In a shrewd move, the People’s Party (PP) is exploring alliance talks with the Mafunde party and others, poised to reshape the political landscape ahead of the 2025 general elections. By forging strategic partnerships, the PP aims to amplify its influence, tap into new constituencies, and counterbalance rival parties.
President Joyce Banda’s announcement at the PP’s convention in Lilongwe signals a calculated bid to bolster the party’s prospects. By pooling resources, expertise, and support bases, the potential alliance could create a formidable force, capable of challenging dominant players and upending traditional political dynamics.
As the PP navigates these high-stakes negotiations, the question on everyone’s mind is: what’s the endgame? Will this alliance prove a masterstroke or a risky gamble? Only time will tell.
