State House intelligence sources confirm that Prince Kapondamgaga suffered a violent assault at the presidential residence. Multiple officials from the Malawi Congress Party reported experiencing attacks from individuals described as party enforcers. Kapondamgaga serves as Chief of Staff and maintains close ties with departing President Lazarus Chakwera.
Political observers link the violence to growing internal conflicts within the MCP leadership. The party faces significant challenges while preparing for opposition status after electoral defeat. Kapondamgaga sustained severe injuries during the incident, though medical details remain unavailable.
State House officials have not released public statements regarding the assault. Security personnel refuse to verify the reports when contacted by media representatives. The violence reflects broader organizational problems as MCP transitions from governing party to opposition following Arthur Peter Mutharika's September victory.
