President Dr. Lazarus Chakwera has urged Malawians to maintain their faith in his administration and leadership, affirming his commitment to advancing the country to new heights. Chakwera made these comments yesterday evening during his arrival in Mangochi, where he is set to attend the enthronement of the Third Bishop for the Anglican Diocese of Upper Shire, Right Reverend William Mchombo at St. Peters and Paul Cathedral today.

Addressing the gathering upon reaching Mtakataka Turn off, the President expressed his pleasure at being in the Eastern Region. He underscored that despite external economic and weather challenges facing the country, his government is making significant progress towards the development goals promised to Malawians.

‘‘I am happy to be back here, even though for a short time, as I am here to attend the enthronement of Bishop of the Anglican Diocese of the Upper Shire.’

‘‘I am urging you to continue supporting my government because what we are doing across the country is just a small portion of what we intend to do,’’ Chakwera said.

Chakwera added that his government has plans to develop the country and people are yet to see more development.

‘‘We have plans, and some of the plans are to initiate developmental projects that you are seeing across, therefore expect more from us.’’ the president added.

Amongst people who received the president included party officials, as well as Malawi Congress Party (MCP) supporters in the Eastern Region.

In his remarks, MCP Deputy Secretary General, Gerald Kazembe thanked Chakwera for putting efforts to improve livelihoods of people in the country regardless of region.

“I have lived in Mangochi for about 50 years, but this is the year that I have started drinking piped water because of the Nkhudzi Bay Water Supply Project, which was commissioned by your administration.

“As of now, we have witnessed the construction of Cape Maclear tarmac road. The Mangochi – Makanjira road has also started taking shape, all these project are implemented because of your commitment to development,” said Kazembe.
