Malawi is on high alert as President Lazarus Chakwera is set to address the nation today at 12:00 p.m. from Kamuzu Palace in Lilongwe, the capital city.
Speculation is rife about the content of his address, with some suggesting he might concede defeat in the presidential election, given unofficial results indicating former president Peter Mutharika, leader of the Democratic Progressive Party (DPP), is leading.
The Development comes as Malawi Electoral Commission (MEC) is scheduled to declare the official 2025 Presidential Election results at 2:00 p.m. today, following thorough verification processes, despite president Chakwera and the Malawi Congress Party (MCP) officials attempted to block the release of results citing irregularities, but the High Court denied their injunction request, paving the way for MEC to announce the outcome.
