UTM Party running mate, Matthews Mtumbuka, has dismissed the recent survey findings released by the Institute of Public Opinion and Research (IPOR), saying the party continues to enjoy strong support across the country.
Speaking at Bande Football Ground in Mulanje District, Mtumbuka argued that the IPOR survey does not reflect the reality on the ground. He cited the 2019 elections, when UTM secured more than half of the votes in the Northern Region, as evidence of the party’s enduring popularity nationwide.
Mtumbuka urged supporters to remain confident in the party’s prospects, stressing that UTM remains a viable alternative for Malawians seeking change.
Meanwhile, UTM’s aspiring Member of Parliament for Mulanje West, Patricia Kaliati, reassured the gathering that the party is well-prepared to tackle the social and economic challenges facing the country. She emphasized that UTM’s policies are designed to uplift ordinary Malawians and restore hope in communities struggling with poverty and unemployment.
The rally drew hundreds of supporters, with speakers calling for unity and resilience as the party intensifies its campaign ahead of the September polls.
