Mutharika Cautions Against 'Vengeful Politics' Ahead of Elections

"In 2014 I survived five assassination of attempts, and my predecessor [Joyce Banda ] tried to cling over to power but I ensured peace," Malawi President Peter Mutharika has said during the presidential prayer breakfast where he urged his contenders to be peace-loving and desist from vangeful politics in the upcoming May 21 elections.
