The Presidential Debates Task Force would like to inform the general public, development partners and all stakeholders that the second Presidential Debate has been shifted to a later date to be announced over the weekend to create space for further engagement with political parties.

The second presidential debate was initially scheduled for Friday, August 29, 2025.

The postponement allows the Task Force to engage in productive discussions with political parties that failed to participate in the first debate.

Further details regarding the second debate will be communicated to the public in due course.

The Task Force sincerely apologizes for any inconvenience this change may cause to political parties and all stakeholders.
