Chiradzulu, May 18, Mana: Susan Kachione has emerged victorious in the recent Malawi Congress Party (MCP) primary elections for Nyungwe Constituency, securing 238 votes against her closest challenger, Dayan Mitumbili, who got 225 votes.
Kachione, who lost twice in primary elections in the past, said she was finally happy with the victory, adding that her “never say die” spirit prompted her to keep on trying.
“This is something I’ve been waiting for. I stayed strong even though I lost before; I am ready to serve the people,” she added.
Mitumbili however, challenged the results, saying the elections had many anomalies that needed to be investigated.
Margaret Kumbemba Chakachadza, MCP monitor, told Malawi News Agency that party officials will investigate the complaints.
