Veteran politician Aaron Chitsulo has won the Malawi Congress Party (MCP) by-elections held on Friday in Chitakale ward in Mulanje South constituency as the party prepares for the ward’s by-elections slated for March 30, 2021.
Chitsulo won the polls after amassing 172 votes beating Richard Khembo and Bizwick Chidziwe who got 31 and 7 votes respectively.
Chitsulo who for several times failed the constituency’s parliamentary elections said he is optimistic this time around he will make it.
“I have won and I will win the polls this coming March 30, 2021. I am proud to be MCP candidate and the elections have been held fairly unlike how other political parties hold their primary elections where they impose candidates on people,” said Chitsulo.
