The sudden death of United Democratic Alliance (UDA) aspirant Dr. Enock Andaje, who was eyeing the Malava parliamentary seat, has ignited sharp divisions among leaders, with accusations of bias, betrayal, and commercialisation of party nominations.

Dr. Andaje collapsed at the gate of Bulupi Primary School in Malava, where he had gone to attend a women’s empowerment event presided over by Prime Cabinet Secretary Musalia Mudavadi.
