Speaking at a whistle-stop  campaign tour at Nkhata-bay boma , Atupele said others do not understand the what politics is, they only see the bad not the good.

“When another party is in government it doesn’t mean that our job should be criticising and destroying always because those who suffer are innocent Malawians,” said the UDF presidential candidate.

Atupele, 40,  added that UDF and Alliance for Democracy (Aford) showed Malawians that two parties can work together and deliver.

“That’s why in the northern region we have various developments like Mzuzu High Court, Auction Floors, Mzuzu University,  Mzuzu central hospital because of UDF working relationship with Aford,” added Muluzi.

The youthful presidential candidate further said that the Aford/UDF alliance showed Malawians that they could differ in political ideology, religion, and tribe but they could work together to build Malawi because they are doing a service its citizen.

“We showed that differing in parties does not mean pulling each other down,” he said.

Atupele  further said for all those who fought for Malawi freedom their wish was for the country  to develop and not castigating each other.

“Our aim should be building one Malawi for all with no discrimination,” added Atupele.

Atupele, son to Bakili Muluzi, Malawi’s first post-one-party State president, also assured the people of Nkhata-bay that he is going to abolish the quota system of university selection once voted as the country’s president next week Tuesday, May 21.

In his remarks, UDF presidential running mate Frank Tumpale Mwenifumbo – who is an Aford member –  urged the electorate to vote for Atupele so that Malawi can develop.

“We should start a fresh don’t accept to be treated as second class citizens because Nkhata-bay people are important in the history of Malawi,” said Mwenifumbo.

Mwenifumbo highlighted the UDF manifesto which is focusing on inclusive growth and economic freedom.

Highlights of UDF’s manifesto include a pledge to introduce social protection policies which will see people without sources of income getting paid by the government and introduction of universal fertiliser subsidy instead of the coupon system in the Farm Input Subsidy Programme (Fisp).

Atupele is the real deal of all these candidates. He is simple in his philosophies for development and has the temperament and zeal to develop Malawi.

God is giving Malawi the option to take for good governance and uplifting of the young who are in majority by making available a Loan Fund of not less than K150 billion. This is what is called visionary at its best.

Malawi vote for Atupele!!!

God give Malawi the eyes to see and the ears to listen so that the future is better than now! Do give us Atupele

Be honest Atupele, I voted for you in 2014, but this time no. I am voting for Chilima. I did not vote for you to partner with thieves. Had you remained in opposition there would have been a lot of things Malawi would have achieved. Remember what happened when Bingu had fewer MPs btwn 2004-2009. The best period for Malawi. But you took your personal estate UDF into marriage with thieves and thugs in DPP. Apa tikuyankhulapa, you voted against election reforms bills. Malawians would have loved to have. And you go around telling people that politics is service. You… Read more »
