The United Transformation Movement (UTM) party has expelled its erstwhile leader, Dr Michael Usi from the party, following a disciplinary committee held Monday, December 30,2024.

According to a statement by UTM publicity secretary Felix Njawala, their former leader, Usi, did not attend the hearing “and instead communicated through his legal counsel that he did not recognize the authority of the disciplinary process.”

Usi, who replaced the late Saulos Chilima as UTM president in June this year, was being accused of behaving in a manner likely to create divisions or impact negatively on the party.

He was also accused of joining or supporting an organisation or party, other than an organisation in alliance with UTM contrary to Article 22[8] [k] of UTM constitution.
