A list of candidates from Malawi Electoral Commission (MEC) shows that the  party does not have a candidate in the by election.

This means UTM Party will battle it out with its two Tonse alliance partners; MCP and PP.

There are also independent candidates vying for the seat which fell vacant after its legislator John Chikalimba succumbed to covid-19 last month.

The by-election in Zomba Changalume and five other constituencies and two wards are expected to take place on March 30, 2021.
