Malawi Defense Force (MDF) has said all is set for the inauguration ceremony of President Lazarus Chakwera on July 6.
MDF publicist Lieutenant Colonel Paul Chiphwanya has confirmed of the development which is scheduled to be celebrated together with the country’s Independence Day.
Independence Day celebrations this year will coincide with Chakwera’s inauguration at the Bingu National Stadium in Lilongwe where he will be handed the sword of command as Commander-in-Chief of the armed forces.
It is not clear if immediate-past President Peter Mutharika will attend the event which in the past, out-going presidents have shunned.
Chakwera was sworn in as Malawi’s president on June 28 together with his vice president Saulos Chilima after winning June 23 fresh presidential elections.
