The Nyasaland Constitutional Party (NCP) was a political party in Malawi.
History
The party was established in April 1963 as a continuation of the Nyasaland branch of the United Federal Party.[1] It was led by Michael Hill Blackwood, who had previously led the UFP in Nyasaland.[2]
In the 1964 general elections the NCP won all three "special roll" seats reserved for Europeans (for which there were only 814 registered voters) unopposed.[3]
In 1966 Malawi became a one-party state with the Malawi Congress Party as the sole legal party.[4]
