The emergency meeting follows a declaration made by President Dr. Lazarus Chakwera yesterday in Lilongwe, saying that he will seek re-election on Malawi Congress Party (MCP) ticket in the forthcoming 2025 polls.
The statement by Chakwera has attracted anger among UTM supporters including top officials who were hoping that its President Dr. Saulos Chilima will lead the Tonse Alliance in the forthcoming polls.
