Councillor for Blantyre City Soche East ward Leonard Chimbanga has hinted that the opposition Democratic Progressive Party (DPP) will win the forthcoming 2025 presidential polls without forming a coalition with any party.

Chimbanga’s reaction follows revelation that the United Transformation Movement (UTM) will form an alliance with the United Democratic Front (UDF) and the opposition DPP to oust President Dr. Lazarus Chakwera of the Malawi Congress Party (MCP).

“Sweeping Political Change.

“Yohane pa Chisumbu cha Patimo tells me of a grand coalition coming,” wrote Chisa Mbele.

He added: “If you ask me, I will welcome and support the Coalition that will force MCP to rethink and start behaving like a government.

“UDF + DPP + UTM can fundamentally alter the political landscape if personal power ambitions are regulated. If Malawi is put first. IF leaders are truly ashamed of poverty.”

But Chimbanga said DPP is safe without a coalition.

“DPP will win the 2025 Elections comfortably without a Coalition,” wrote Chimbanga on his official facebook page.

Meanwhile, it is yet to be seen if really three parties will form an Alliance or not.
