The President revealed this during the official opening of Ida Community College in Chiradzulu.

“I want to reveal a secret to you. Do you want me to reveal the secret? I have registered today at Goliati,” attracting ululations from the people gathered at the event.

Mutharika then urged the people across the country to go and register in the registration exercise being carried out by the Malawi Electoral Commission (MEC).
