Chilima claims Zimbabwe\u2019s Chihuri in Malawi to help DPP rig elections<\/p>\n
May 19, 2019<\/p>\n
UTM Party presidential candidate \u00a0Saulos Chilima has alleged that there is a Zimbabwean national Augustine Chihuri who is in the county to help the Democratic Progressive Party (DPP) \u00a0rig this week\u2019s Tuesday Tripartite Elections.<\/p>\n
Chilima: Held a daybreak news conference
\nChilima, who is also State Vice-President, said this at a news conference which held at 5:30am at his residence in Area 12, Lilongwe.
\nAccording to Chilima, Chihuri, a former commissioner general in Zimbabwe police , was allegedly hired by DPP government in order to train parallel police officers who will pose as legitimate officers and do heinous acts in a bid to rig the tripartite elections in favor of DPP.
\nChilima has since ordered that Chihuri must leave Malawi at once.
\nSaid Chilima: \u201cWe are saying that Chihuri must leave our country, don\u2019t mess our elections.\u201d
\nHe also said there are also plans to switch already marked ballot papers with the credible ones .
\nThe UTM leaderfurther said: \u201cWe will soon be writing Malawi Electoral Commission, elaborating these anomalies so that they can have them fixed.\u201d
\nChilima, 46, quit President Peter Mutharika\u00b4s party to form the UTM, while staying on as vice president.<\/p>\n
The other two contenders for the presidency are Lazarus Chakwera, head of the main opposition Malawi Congress Party (MCP); and Atupele Muluzi, who was health minister in Mutharika\u00b4s government.
\nFormer baptist preacher Chakwera, 64, is running with the\u00a0support\u00a0of former president Joyce Banda.
\nAtupele Muluzi, 41, who finished his campaign with a rally in Mangochi , inherited the United Democratic Front from his father, Malawi\u2019s third president Bakili Muluzi.
\nThe party entered into a parliamentary alliance with the president\u2019s party after Muluzi came fourth in the 2014 elections.
\nAbout half of Malawi\u2019s 18 million population live below the poverty line, according to the World Bank, and the country relies on foreign aid.
\nFood shortages, power outages and ballooning external debt have hurt Mutharika\u2019s popularity ahead of the vote.<\/p>\n
