UTM party leader Dalitso Kabambe wants all presidential candidates to face off in a public debate before the next election. He believes voters need to hear exactly how each person plans to fix Malawi's broken economy. Kabambe thinks anyone asking for leadership must first show they can handle the job properly. He shared these thoughts during his recent talk at Chancellor College in Zomba about how young citizens can help develop the nation.
Kabambe made it clear that the country faces serious money problems requiring smart solutions from capable leaders. A debate would force everyone running for president to explain their plans clearly, where all citizens could watch and listen. This would help regular Malawians pick someone based on actual ideas instead of empty promises. Many political experts and regular people have already discussed this suggestion, with several saying it would bring more openness to the campaign.
According to Kabambe, Malawi desperately needs public servants who care about solving real problems instead of just gaining power for themselves. During his college appearance, he stressed how important young people are for creating a better future, especially regarding business growth and jobs. He asked students and other young adults to become more involved in government decisions and make sure politicians keep their word after winning elections.
The upcoming 2025 vote moves closer every day, and Kabambe's debate challenge might push other candidates to speak publicly about their plans. Average citizens across Malawi wonder whether everyone running for the highest office will accept this invitation to discuss their ideas openly. The former economist believes this direct comparison would reveal who truly understands how to lead the country through its current difficulties and create lasting improvement for everyone.
