UTM gearing up for inaugural convention

The United Transformations Movement (UTM) has called on its followers to continue searching for good people to contest for leadership positions when the movement holds its convention on a date to be announced soon.

Making the statement on its official Twitter page, Monday morning, the movement said the members should be identifying transformational leaders to get positions

“UTM elective convention to be held on a date to be announced soon (not Tuesday ) – let’s continue identifying good people to lead us!” said the movement on its official Twitter page @UTM_Mw

Confirming the announcement, UTM’s publicity Secretary, Joseph Chidanti Malunga, said preparations for the party’s inaugural national indaba have now reached an advanced stage.

UTM is currently experiencing an unprecedented meteoric rise in its membership following its launch in July 2019.

The movement is currently run by an interim executive under the leadership of Saulos Chilima who is Malawi’s State Vice President. Chilima and others formed UTM after falling out with President Mutharika.

Please UTM try and woo in Dr Matthew Chikaonda. I feel the man needs a place in modern politics to turn around the Malawi economy. He is the only economist who made a great difference to our economy in the history of our crazy multiparty politics.

UTM IS GOOD AS AN OPPOSITION BLOCK, THEY’RE EFFECTIVE PROVEN BY THE CURRENT GOVT’S TOWING LINE’S SYDROME.
UTM MENTIONS 1 MILLION JOBS CREATION, IMMEDIATELY THE GOVT EMPLOYS INTERNS.
UTM EXPOSES ESCOM’S FUEL SCMA THE GOVT RESPONDS BY FIRING THE ESCOM’S MAIN EXCUTIVE ETC. THAT MEANS UTM IS EFFECTIVE AS AN OPPOSING PARTY AND THATS THE MISSING LINK INN OUR DEMOCRACY – ‘A MWATIBERA’ AKAPUME!!

I listened to SKC’s speech at his Zomba rally: It was just too long. You can not cover the whole UTM manifesto in each campaign speech; cover issues in a “packaged manner”. Keep the speech short, keep repeating the chosen slogan, and increase the pomp and fun. SKC is a marketer by profession – I shouldn’t be telling him these things…In our offices we use templates a lot, we do not start something from scratch unless absolutely necessary. Why can’t UTM use the UDF template? UDF was a disaster as the ruling political party; but its origins as a pressure… Read more »

I cant agree more though timing is important! The good thing is that SKC and team are selling the UTM and that what matters most at the point in time. Otherwise running to do things that are indeed necessary by negating the other important factors might prove hazardous to the good and longlasting vision that is in the eyes.

Spot on 100%. They need to deal with real issues that people are grappling with on the ground. You can not talk governance issues in Lilongwe and Zomba and discuss the same issues in the very same way in Mulanje and Mangochi. The speeches need to be more interactive with the audience going forward. Bakili Muluzi was just too good at it. The Mahule insult should have been addressed vigorously by SKC himself.
