With the thundering voice of a leader on a mission, President Dr. Lazarus McCarthy Chakwera has sent a rallying call to all registered Malawians: flood the polling stations in your thousands on 16 September and vote to protect progress and secure a brighter future.
Addressing a euphoric crowd in Mzimba after a high-level meeting with traditional leaders under Inkosi Mabilabo, the President declared that the election is not just a political event, but a defining moment between going forward with steady hands or falling backward into chaos.
“We have laid down a foundation of development that touches every village, every district, and every sector. What we need now is the people’s power to finish what we started!” Chakwera proclaimed, drawing roaring cheers from the crowd.
True to his word, Dr. Chakwera highlighted how his administration has spread road construction and infrastructure projects into rural areas—including those under Inkosi Mabilabo—proving that this government does not build for headlines, but for livelihoods.
By his side stood his newly announced running mate, Vitumbiko Mumba, who affirmed the administration’s development legacy, citing the rehabilitation of the vital M1 Road as a key artery in the nation’s economic heartbeat.
Inkosi Mabilabo, clearly moved, praised the government for its visible impact in farming, education, and health, stating that President Chakwera’s decision to pick a youthful running mate was a masterstroke that has injected hope in the country’s young people. “You strike the iron while it’s hot,” the Chief said with a nod of confidence.
With momentum swelling like a wave, Dr. Chakwera left Mzimba with one message:
“On 16 September, let us rise as one and vote overwhelmingly—not just to win, but to protect the soul of our nation.”
