Chakwera assures of development

Mchinji, November 13, Mana: President Lazarus Chakwera has reaffirmed his administration’s commitment to ongoing development efforts in Mchinji District and the country at large.

Addressing people at Kamwendo Trading Centre on Wednesday during a whistle-stop tour, Chakwera highlighted various initiatives aimed at improving infrastructure and economic opportunities in the district.

This stop was the fourth on his tour, which also included visits to Tembwe and Waliranji Trading Centres and a meeting with local chiefs at Mchinji Teacher Training College.

“We are making sure that development reaches everyone so that people can live dignified lives without reliance on aid. We have started rehabilitating railways and roads to help farmers transport their produce more easily,” Chakwera said.

The President cited the planned rehabilitation of the Mkanda to Kasungu road, which will connect Mchinji with Kasungu District, as an example of projects aimed at enhancing district connectivity.

He also emphasised the government’s efforts to improve access to the National Economic Empowerment Fund (NEEF) by removing collateral requirements, enabling more people to establish sustainable businesses.

Earlier, Member of Parliament for Mchinji Central Constituency Jephther Mwale expressed appreciation for the increase in the Constituency Development Fund (CDF) to K200 million, which he said is facilitating construction of classroom blocks and bridges.
Mwale also praised Chakwera for revitalising agriculture in the district, a sector he noted had been in decline.

Mwale also encouraged the people to register, a message President Chakwera and Malawi Congress Party (MCP) regional governor Patrick Zebron Chilondola also tackled.
Chilondola said people are already registering in large numbers but there are some who have not.

“Do not wait for the last day of voter registration. You have to go now and make sure you have registered,” said Chilondola
