BLANTYRE (Reuters) -Malawians will vote for their next president, members of parliament and local councillors on September 16 after five years of increasing economic hardship that was compounded by a series of natural disasters.
Political analysts expect the Southern African country's presidential election to be a two-horse race between current President Lazarus Chakwera and his predecessor Peter Mutharika.
