Chihana  should forget about returning to Parliament — Jappie

Minister of Transport and Public Works, Jappie Mhango has urged people of Rumphi to vote for the ruling Democratic Progressive Party (DPP)  in the May 21 Tripartite Elections and that  legislator Enock Chihana of Aford should  forget about returning his seat in Rumphi Central constituency.

Mhango, who is also DPP Treasurer General, made the call  at Chankhomi Community Day Secondary School during a public meeting.

He said DPP has a sound track record for development in the district, hence the need for the people to retain it in power.

Mhango cited construction of Njakwa-Livingstonia road, Rumphi Stadium, Rumphi TTC and Rumphi-Chitipa road among major developments in the district by the DPP.

“President Peter Mutharika is a visionary leader who can continue transforming the district by bringing more developments if DPP wins 2019 Tripartite Elections,” the Minister explained.

He said Rumphi Central Constituency, whose MP is Chihana of Aford, would next year be won by DPP because people are now development conscious.

“DPP has decorated the district with numerous development project that’s why we will win in all constituencies,” Mhango said.

Regional Governor for North, Kenneth Sanga said Rumphi Central Constituency has benefited from numerous developments under DPP; though the constituency has opposition MP.

“Rumphi Central Constituency is in the hands of Aford’s, Enoch Chihana but most development projects have been delivered by DPP administration. We know for sure this time around all the four parliamentary seats here in Rumphi will be won by DPP,” he added.

Senior Group Village Headman Chikalamba Gondwe thanked the DPP government for the developments saying many problems are now history.

He thanked the minister for commissioning construction of Mawerewere Bridge on the day.

It is only those people living in real Rumphi that are appreciating the developments taking place in Rumphi and those who left Rumphi as town mongers are those that are not appreciating.That is where DPP will claim landslide victory because it values the grassroots.That’s exactly what other reputable oragnisations like World Bank,IMF,ADB etc are saying that Malawi is top world 10 moving towards success.Even Chilima was bruised by HARDTALK Anchor Zainab Badawi for proving Chilima’s ignorance about this,when he claimed to know Malawi.Jappie is honestly the hardworking DPP Government Minister and can easily outdo for MP.

Ine ndi mchewa koma ngati pali anthu ambiri ozindikira pa ndale ndiye ndi atumbuka. Jappie don’t think you can fool those people the way lomwes are taken. You are talking about foundation stones which DPP is laying but as someone who works in the north, people on the ground are not happy with quota system of selecting students into public universities. Reverse that policy then DPP will triumph otherwise MCP and UTM and may be PP in Nkhatabay will share most of the seats. You can afford to sent your children to overseas universities together with Goodall, Grace Chiumia and… Read more »

AM from Nothern region since malawi attained its independence, the region has been sidelined when it comes to development,with the introduction of animal so called quota system is crippling the quality of education in malawi and dpp should not fool people by providing the temporal building to manipulate the voters and to gain ground on grassroot level as the sole provider of these developments.

Land of foundation stones. Where are the foundation stones for roads which were constructed during HKB. Every small project these days has a foundation stone really?

He is making a point based on what Jappie is saying. Go to Rumphi and see for yourself if any tangible progress has been made on the said projects. Foundations stones are meant to hoodwink people of Rumphi into believing the DPP government is doing something. It is an open secret that DPP favours the South especially Lhomwe built in matters to do with development and employment. Look at the road network connecting Zomba, Phalombe, Chiradzulu and Mulanje. Now look at the Rumphi-Chitipa road, a very important road that pass through the Nyika National Park. Any sane Malawian will be… Read more »
