United Democratic Front (UDF) Candidate for Nsanje Central Constituency, Laston Katole and an independent candidate for Chikwawa East Constituency, Finason Thengulo, have withdrawn from the March 30 Parliamentary polls.
Malawi Electoral Commission (MEC) spokesperson Sangwani Mwafulirwa has confirmed, pointing out that the names of the two have been removed from a list of contestants.
However, Mwafulirwa says the Commission will not refund them their K500,000 nominations fee which they each paid to MEC when they were submitting their nominations forms.
