Zimbabwe President Mnangagwa will attend Peter Mutharika's inauguration on Saturday as Malawi's seventh head of state at Kamuzu Stadium in Blantyre. Mutharika won 56.8 percent of the votes in the Sept. 16 general election to defeat outgoing President Lazarus Chakwera, and Vice President-elect Jane Ansah will take her oath alongside him. Botswana President Duma Boko, Mozambican President Daniel Chapo, and Zambian President Hakainde Hichilema will join other African Union leaders at the ceremony.

The Malawian government arranged public viewing sites at Civo Stadium in Lilongwe, Katoto Freedom Park in Mzuzu, and Mangochi Stadium for citizens unable to travel. Zimbabwean Ambassador Nancy Saungweme confirmed peaceful conditions before the event, and outgoing President Chakwera will formally transfer power. Chief Justice Rizine Mzikamanda will administer oaths before military honors and the inaugural address, and former Presidents Bakili Muluzi and Joyce Banda will attend the ceremony.
