United Transformation Movement (UTM) Secretary General Patricia Akweni Kaliati has asked the ruling Democratic Progressive Party (DPP) to stop following UTM leaders.

Kaliati said this at Mzuzu Upper Stadium on Sunday during the first mega rally of Tonse Alliance which has nine political parties.

“Stop harassing people, we have freedom to choose where we want to be. When people chase you anywhere you go, like it has happened at Ndirande, it is a sign that people are tired.

“You gather, planning to torch our vehicles, did we use your money to buy them?,” said Kaliati.

Kaliati also questioned how government is managing the Covid 19 response in the country, accusing Minister of Health Jappie Mhango of playing double standard on the matter.

She accused the Minister of shunning some of the measures set by the government to control the spread of coronavirus by running a football bonanza in his constituency.
