Blantyre, Malawi — Atupele Muluzi, the newly elected President of the United Democratic Front (UDF), has declared that his party will serve as the torchbearer in the upcoming 2025 elections. Muluzi made this statement during the UDF National Convention, emphasizing that the party is committed to leading the political landscape in Malawi and will not be overshadowed by other political entities.

Muluzi asserted that the UDF is ready to take the reins and provide a viable alternative for Malawians seeking effective governance and development. “We must be the torchbearers of hope and progress for our people. The UDF stands ready to reclaim its position as a leader in Malawi’s political arena,” he said, rallying party members to unite and work towards this vision.

The new UDF president expressed confidence in the party’s policies and the capabilities of its members to bring about positive change in the country. He encouraged the youth and other marginalized groups to engage actively in the political process and ensure their voices are heard in shaping Malawi’s future.

Muluzi’s remarks come at a time when the political atmosphere in Malawi is highly charged, with various parties gearing up for the next general elections. He stressed that the UDF’s commitment to democracy and inclusivity will be key in attracting support from voters across the nation.

With his leadership, Muluzi aims to revitalize the UDF and strengthen its platform as a beacon of hope for those disillusioned by the current political climate. “Our focus will be on addressing the pressing issues that affect our communities and creating an environment where every Malawian can thrive,” he stated.

As the 2025 elections approach, the UDF, under Muluzi’s guidance, seeks to position itself as a formidable force, ready to lead Malawi towards sustainable development and a brighter future for all citizens.
