Malawi President Peter Mutharika has reshuffled his cabinet, breaking his earlier promise to keep government small.

Analysts say the move seems aimed at enforcing political discipline, allowing Mutharika to strengthen control over key ministries and secure loyalty among senior officials. The reshuffle includes several high-profile appointments and dismissals, signalling a major shift within the administration.

Experts note that the changes could affect Malawi’s policy direction at a time when the country faces significant economic and social challenges.
