The Malawi Congress Party wants to team up with other political groups before next year's big vote. Party leaders say they will work with anyone who likes what President Lazarus Chakwera has done for the country. Ken Msonda speaks for the MCP and tells people his party stays open to partnerships. He makes clear that no serious talks have started with other parties. The September 2025 elections still seem far away for making these deals.
Msonda says his party has not spoken to the United Democratic Front or other groups about joining forces. People around the country keep talking about possible partnerships between different political parties. Some think the MCP might join with the UDF, People's Development Party, or Odya Zake Alibe Mulandu movement. None of these parties have said yes or no to working together. Everyone waits to see what happens as election time gets closer.
The MCP wants any partner to support President Chakwera's plans for helping Malawi grow stronger. Political expert Thomas Chirwa warns parties about making quick deals just to win votes. He thinks political groups should care more about helping the country than just winning elections. Chirwa believes the MCP might have trouble finding good partners because past alliances have failed. Some former partners felt left out and disappointed when working with bigger parties.
