Abida Mia donates ambulance, launches free driving school in Chikwawa Nkombezi
Aspiring Member of Parliament for Chikhwawa Nkombedzi Constituency representing the main opposition Malawi Congress Party (MCP) for the May 21elections, Abida Mia, over the weekend donated an ambulance and another small vehicle which she said will be used for driving school purposes.
The ambulance donation was fulfilling a pledge she made during the time she first expressed her interest to run for office.
The firebrand female politician said she noted that her constituents were experiencing problems due to a lack of an ambulance.
Abida, who is wife to MCP vice president Sidik Mia, unveiled the ambulance in all the key places in the constituency.
She also donated K500 000 towards the construction of two churches in the constituency.
Later in the afternoon, Abida Mia, treated people of Mchenga area to a football bonanza which saw Magalasi FC beating Shamboko FC and the winners received K100 000 while the runners up got K70 000.
Speaking before a mammoth crowd after the match, Abida Mia, told the constituents that she walks her talk.
“I told you that I would donate an ambulance to ease transportation problems of patients and expectant mothers to the hospital and there it is for all of us to bear witness,” said Mia.
She added: “In addition, that small branded vehicle you also see next to the ambulance over there is also for the constituency. We want to start a driving school so we can help open doors for opportunities for our young people. Those that will enroll, I will also help them obtain driving licenses. The idea is that those young people who are simply loafing around should be empowered and be self-reliant.”
The shadow MP also outlined a catalogue of development activities which she has put in place to help the youth in the area to get employment.
“I will also pilot different youth friendly development projects before 21st May, 2019: I will train young people to acquire basic skills in hospitality and catering, wielding, tailoring and carpentry. I will give them starter pack equipment’s to start their own businesses. Those who will need to be employed, I will start running an employment agency where I will be recommending them to companies or individuals seeking such human resource,” she added.
Abida therefore asked the people to vote for her and MCP President Lazarus Chakwera during the tripartite elections and described Chakwera as the only capable leader to develop the country.
“I urge you to vote for me as your parliamentarian and Dr Lazarus Chakwera as our president and with me and him in these positions, I promise that we will make our constituency great again,” Abida said.
During the rally, Mia was accompanied by political orator Elyias Karim, who is MP for Chikwawa South Constituency and MCP’s deputy women’s director Mai Kanyoni.

If this was in good faith, the ambulance would have simply have been marked so without the face of this mkaladi woman.
Ndizo tikunenazo, chalakwika nchiyani pamenepo?Kikkkk Ambulance will be Ambulance period! Kodi tulo timeneti bwanji?
Iweeee……kumbwambwanatu ndi banzi ya mkaladi mkamwa. Can’t you see this is deception of communities to entrust her with their votes? Where was she and her hubby all these years? Was there no need for an ambulance? Kunamizika new kufoilako.
Malawians are full jokes! In democracy everyone has the right to do what he or she feels is good, until when are we going to be ignorant like this? Wait a minute,, are you serious you don’t know that in Multiparty system it’s competition that brings development in the Country? What Mrs Mia has done is development, then some one who want to do more than what Mrs Mia has done, he or she will definitely do more,, this means that area is get development through competition!

Are you Abida, her accessory or her appendage, if not her boot-licker? Unless you have her buns in the mouth, it is strange that you cannot see the deception, manipulation and exploitation of impoverished African voters.
You see, who doesn’t know kuti every gift from politicians buying votes? You see, who doesn’t know that you are jealous?
There is only one thing I like in your comment though, you seem to be the opposite side, so let’s not argue, am not in Malawi that I can be taking ma yellow burns a white, I work hard where I’m.
Sorry neh!
Those that are not in politics just donate now and everybody will say you are genuine rather than criticizing those that have decided to give at the best time. So if they want vote you don’t want communities to benefit from their vote? Wake up!
Yavuta campaign. Please don’t take it back mukaluza.
Firebrand politician??
Misuse of language… perhaps writers are paid for exaggeration of characters that have cash!
Please tell me that ambulance will not be carrying campaign message.
Sorry, it’s too late, the message has been carried already can’t you see that??? Another question please, but make sure it should be a better one ya?
Baba, We have many parties in Malawi, count them, now if every candidate will do what Mrs Mia has done, how many Ambulance the area can have? Is this not good?
Vuto anthu amayiwala msanga, amenya mabonanza miyezi itatu kenako ziiiii kudikila kampeni ina, tiyeni tizingowadyera ndalama zomwe amatibela pomatigula ng’ombe zanthu pa mtengo wotsika kwambili
I know a lot of people do not like the Mias but at least they are helping the locals than just taking the way DPP does
Don’t mind them, this Ambulance will help people at the village not on Nyasatimes here we are.
Anthuwa wakula ndi u Gang’a
