Democratic Congress Party Deputy Leader Cleophas Malala demands the Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission schedule nonpartisan by-elections immediately. The official expresses confidence his party will capture all 22 contested positions while the ruling UDA party faces complete defeat. Malala criticizes IEBC for failing to announce election dates despite promising results within one week. He accuses UDA of conducting surveys that reveal their inability to win any of the pending contests. The deputy leader requests the ruling administration avoid interfering with IEBC decisions.
DCP plans to contest every available position in their inaugural electoral participation since the party's July 7 formation. The organization selected candidates for all upcoming races and expects democratic competition among multiple aspirants. Twenty-three by-elections await scheduling across six National Assembly positions, one Senate seat, and sixteen county assembly roles. Various circumstances created these vacancies through deaths and government appointments. Banisa and Malava candidates have already begun constituency outreach following their earlier selection.
