Malawi's new President Lazarus Chakwera promises to serve the people

Malawi's new President Lazarus Chakwera has promised to serve rather than rule the people of his country. Chakwera has officially been sworn-in in Lilongwe as the new President of Malawi. He took his oath of office following victory in the re-run election on Tuesday, that's being seen as a democratic first in Sub-Saharan Africa. He defeated his predecessor Peter Mutharika with just over 58-percent of the vote. The rerun was called after Malawi's Constitutional Court annulled Mutharika's victory in the May 2019 election, citing vote tampering.
