At a press conference held this morning, Kaliati began by commending efforts made by government so far however she expressed unhappiness with the delays in starting the search on Monday.
She also wondered why the party has not been getting any updates from government but has only been getting updates from the public domain, which is worrisome to them.
“As a party, we were not officially communicated on the missing plane but heard from matter from our Mzuzu party supporters,” he said.
However, Kaliati has since urged UTM supporters to stay calm during this trying time.
