Chakwera sticks to message of hope: MCP torchbearer outlining his vision of Malawi

Malawi Congress Party (MCP) president   Lazarus Chakwera  with just four months  to convince voters he should be their next Head of State , is  in favour of outlining his vision of the future of Malawi, promising  the youth that the party will introduce National Youth Service which aims at empowering them economically.

Speaking on Saturday during a whistle stop tour from Lilongwe to Blantyre via Lakeshore districts of Salima and Dedza, Chakwera says time has come for Malawians to vote for a party which does not practice regionalism and tribalism when initiating and implementing development.

“If you vote for MCP on 21 May we will make sure we decrease the gap between the poor and the rich by making sure everyone such as the youth, women and the underprivileged venture into any businesses of their choice freely without being victimized,” he said.

Chakwera further added that MCP if voted into power will make sure young people and women have access to loans and venture in businesses and eliminate corruption which hinders the country’s developmental projects.

He also said most business people are being victimized especially youth and women by government and if voted into power MCP will come up with innovations aimed at empowering the poor.

In his remarks Regional Chairman for Lakeshore Augustine Chidzanja says MCP is not shaken by any coalitions of different political parties because the country’s oldest party is very strong and obviously poised to wins the elections.

Chidzanja then advised people in Salima district to vote for MCP candidates for the positions of president, members of parliament and councilors respectively.

Chakwera will on Monday expected to present his nomination papers  as MCP  presidential candidate  with Sidik Mia as his running mate to Malawi Electoral Commission (MEC) at COMES Hall in Blantyre

Mr President,make sure that once you ascend to the highest office of the land you slave yourself alittle and prove to the world that it can be done better and properly,schools can be built better yet to the required standards,infrastructure,health and manpower,forestry,police etc. The current pricing for road construction is extremely high yet the quality leave a lot to be desired. Bring sanity to our beloved country so that once again we can be admired by many.

Sinthani strategy yanu kenako tikukhulupilira kuti chipani chanu ndi cha dzigawo zonse, otherwise inebe ndikuti MCP ndi ya chigawo cha pakati ndipo ngati ingadzatenge boma, adzakhala ndi chidwi pakati pokha. That is i big if though. We all know that the only reason mukupita ku blantyre ndikuti mukapereke ma nomination paper anu baasi. So prove me wrong by conducting rallies in South.

“if voted into power MCP will come up with innovations aimed at empowering the poor.” Wow, so you don’t have the innovations in place up to now? The case of not budgeting unless one has the cash.
Trial and error.

Bwana Chakwera , are you serious with the message which you are saying that MCP doesn’t practice tribalism and regionalism ? Can you please change your style of campaign to Malawians, when we talk of tribalism and regionalism it has been a backbone of MCP which meant to sideline all the northerners here in Malawi ? You better get another formula of campaigning otherwise Malawians will not take you to be a serious campaigner during this year’s general elections.
