The United Democratic Front (UDF) has announced the postponement of its elective convention, which was initially scheduled for August 3rd, 2024.

In an interview with 247 Malawi, the party’s Publicity Secretary, Yusufu Mwawa, said the convention has been rescheduled due to some technical issues.

“We have decided to postpone the convention to a later date because of some technicalities.

“Some aspirants were filling out forms incorrectly, which has prompted us to change the dates,” said Mwawa.

Despite the delay, Mwawa assured that preparations for the elective conference are underway and will take place at the COMESA hall in Blantyre.

“We are at an advanced stage in our preparations, and we are confident that the convention will be a success,” he said.

Mwawa added that they will announce the new dates for the convention soon.

The UDF is one of the major political parties in Malawi, founded in 1992 by former President Dr. Bakili Muluzi, also known as “Atcheya”.
