The Malawi Congress Party (MCP) held a press conference today at its headquarters, expressing confidence that Dr. Lazarus Chakwera has won the presidential election.
Jessie Kabwila, who was speaking at the presser, told reporters the party expects a “70+1” victory and is only waiting for the Malawi Electoral Commission (MEC) to make the official declaration.
Kabwila said he respects MEC’s authority but firmly believes Malawians have already chosen Chakwera to continue as president.
He also revealed that some party leaders skipped the press briefing because they are preparing for Chakwera’s swearing-in ceremony.
Jessie Chabwira echoed the sentiment, saying the votes reflect strong support for Chakwera.
Kabwila urged the public not to be misled by unofficial figures, stating clearly that Chakwera has already won.
