President Lazarus Chakwera has given, until June, the board of the Electricity Generation Company of Malawi (EGENCO), to explain why the company missed his December deadline for the completion of rehabilitation works at Kapichira hydro-power plant.

Chakwera made the demand during the official opening of Malawi Bureau of Standard (MBS) offices and laboratory in Blantyre.

The President alleged that those in higher positions caused the delay which forced Malawians to experience prolonged blackouts.

He said, this is unacceptable and should not be tolerated at any level.
