Analyst Mvula labels Running Mate Debates As Mixed Bag Of Successes And Failures

Political analyst Humphreys Mvula has labelled the just ended series of running mate debates as a mixed bag of successes and failures as the country awaits the presidential debates starting this weekend.

Mvula said that overall, the running mates mainly from Malawi Congress Party (MCP), UTM, and United Democratic Front (UDF) articulated issues but not in a dipper context as they spent time attacking each other’s manifestos.

Mvula however expressed concern with the absence of Democratic Progressive Party (DPP) running mate Everton Chimulenji saying Malawians have been denied a chance to understand what he and his party will offer after being ushered into government.
