Information reaching this publication indicates that United Democratic Front (UDF) has pulled out of joint media briefing scheduled for this afternoon in the capital Lilongwe.
The opposition Democratic Progressive Party (DPP), United Transformation Movement (UTM), Alliance for Democracy (AFORD) and UDF have organized a media briefing to express their concerns over the use of National ID as the only requirement for someone to vote in the forthcoming 2025 polls.
