Malawi President Set For 2-day Visit To Zimbabwe

Lazarus Chakwera, the President of Malawi, is set for a two-day official visit to Zimbabwe at the end of this month.

In a statement, Malawi’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs said President Chakwera will be in Zimbabwe for two days from 30 September 2020. The Statement read:

The Ministry of Foreign Affairs wishes to inform members of the general public that His Excellency Dr Lazarus McCarthy Chakwera, President of the Republic of Malawi, will go on a two-day Official Visit to the Republic of Zimbabwe on 30th September 2020.

Full details of His Excellency Dr Lazarus McCarthy Chakwera’s Official Visit to Zimbabwe will be announced later.

Chakwera was sworn in as the sixth president of Malawi on 28 June having obtained almost 59% of the vote.

He forged an alliance with Saulos Chilima to defeat incumbent president Peter Mutharika when the Court nullified the 2019 General elections due to massive irregularities.
