Political activist Bon Kalindo warns opposition parties about voter registration numbers released by the Malawi Electoral Commission. He claims these figures could help President Lazarus Chakwera win the September 16, 2025 elections with more than half the votes. Kalindo believes the Smartmatic voting machines pose risks for fair elections. He wants opposition groups to demand an independent team check the machines. The activist thinks opposition parties should meet soon to decide their next steps.
The Central Region registered over 3 million voters despite having only 9 districts. The Southern Region has 13 districts but registered fewer than 2 million people. The Eastern Region recorded nearly 1.4 million voters and the Northern Region had about 895,000. Kalindo calls these numbers suspicious. He argues the registration pattern shows the ruling party started rigging efforts long ago.
Kalindo criticizes President Chakwera for giving away free money at State House meetings. He says people bring their voter cards when they visit the president for these handouts. The activist claims this practice amounts to vote buying. He worries these cash payments will influence the election results. Opposition leaders need to act before voting day arrives.
The country faces serious economic problems with high sugar prices and empty hospitals. Citizens struggle with hunger and lack basic services. Kalindo urges voters to reject the current government. He believes the ruling party stays in power to avoid legal consequences for their actions.
