President Peter Mutharika has said government will transform Mchinji District bordering with Zambia into a municipality with complete new infrastructure once re-elected on May 21 2019.

Speaking at Mchinji boma on Sunday, when he conducted a whistle stop campaign  tour, Mutharika said the district will have infrastructure such as a modern market, stadium, and hotels befitting a border town.

“Mchinji will have modern infrastructure and it will be developed just like the neighbouring Chipata in Zambia,” he said.

The President said once re-elected into power on May 21, the Democratic Progressive Party (DPP) will continue developing the central region through provision of basic amenities such as water, hospitals and good roads.

Mutharika said government will also construct a new stadium at the boma and rehabilitate Mchinji District Hospital kitchen which was gutted by fire.

Speaking at Kapiri in the district, the president said government will construct a new Health centre at Kapiri and rehabilitate the Kapiri- Mkanda road.

“My government will continue the Malata Subsidy program, the cash transfer program and other programs to support the vulnerable people in society,” he added.

Addressing the people at Matutu and Tembwe, the President said government would construct community colleges in all the 193 constituencies in the country.

The President then called on people in Mchinji to vote for DPP shadow parliamentarians Esther Majaza for Mchinji North east, Lonzoe Zimba for Mchinji East, Patricia Banda for Mchinji Central and Raymond Sakala for Mchinji South West.

He lambasted the opposition parties for opposing everything that his government is doing, saying they have nothing to offer Malawians.

DPP Secretary General Grizeldar Jeffrey said time has come for people in the district not to listen to empty promises made by opposition leaders.

“DPP has fulfilled its campaign promises in 2014, and our party will do more when re-elected into power on May 21, 2019,” she said.

Senior Chiefs Dambe and Mkanda pledged total support to the DPP government, saying it has developed the district through the Mchinji- Chawala Mkanda road, Mkanda rural growth centre, construction of Mchinji Teachers Training College and Malawi rural electrification program.

  1. Lies, lies, lies and more lies. Do promise new projects when you have not even started the old project you promised? Desperation and mediocrity. Time up! No point. Khweeee! Mtiiiii! Mtiiiii! Phwererereee! Mtuuu!

  2. Ambuye yambaniponi kupakira ife tatopa ndi boza la mkukuniza. Ife MA landlord tiyika tenant wina kumeneko.

  4. BIASED REPORTING. osalemba za mafoni walemba mzako bwanji. DPP yapita basi mayi iwalani zoti DPP ingawine

  5. Go on our president, Mchinji need development, you have shown them already. Let the district change. If you need development go for DPP, but if you need politics you will remain the same. Vuka people Of Mchinji. Viva DPP.

  6. Olemba mwaiwala kunena kuti anapempha fanz kuti isamu pusitsenso ngat 2014 kubera ambiri ku msokhano koma mavoti ochepa. Analira mokwezatu a dad, mpaka kukumbuka 2014.

    1. All you know is foul language nyabinghe. Be civil and check your character, is not pleasing on social media. Democracy is full of different ideas , but has no room for your character. Go back and let you be taught how to behave., otherwise you’re pathetic.

  9. What about the Nsanje port and the helicopter you promised bwana APM. Now shifting to Mchinji to fool the people once more

    1. Can he build Nsanje port in Mchinji. Ignorance is not a good thing. What you are forgetting we cannot have the port built without the Mozambique government giving us access in the Zambezi waters. Zambezi is not a no man’s land. The idea was great, but every project has its own challenges. It may not happen today or next year but it will happen. Who knew the kamiya santhe Road will change. ‘‘Tis the same problems with have to pump water from Lake Malawi to Lilongwe, we have challenges that has derailed the projects, and if that is happening in our own land what about passing through someone’s area. Lease understand issues.

  10. kulota sikulakwisa. Koma babawa ali desperate. Musiyireni Chilima azapange zimenezo. Inu kwanu kwatha

  11. compare with Chilimas whistle stop in BT,wamkulu ndiwamkulu.This mass in Mchinji mean good,dont BT where every supporter belongs to parties

    1. Mass yake itiyo???? Anthu ochita kubweretsa m’ma lorry kuti bwana asawonekere ng’amba????? Ndinali komweko I saw what happened….Don’t be fooled with ferried masses! Kkkkkkkkk… 1 month and six days left! Kkkkkk

      1. inenso ndinali komweko kwa chilimako many supporters were ferried from other parts dont be cheated. game iyi ndi ya wachiwona ndani just wait come 22 may

  15. What stopped him from doing that in the past 5 years? When will the 5 universities come? The old man is mad.

  16. People Mchinji lend me your ears! Now the DPP wants your votes. For 5 years the district received nothing from this Government. Can you go to the Lhomwe Belt to appreciate what DPP has done there with your taxes. Compare with the empty promises he made to you. DPP government took your taxes for 5 years and developed Lhomwe Belt. Open your eyes and see. All the candidates mentioned will not win the next elections mark my words. Lonze is loan shark who terrorizes people and has caused turmoil in the Mduwa chieftainship. He has no education. He is the most hated man in Mchinji East. Esther Majaza is an immigrant (wobwera), She can not the incumbent

    1. Now he is talking of developing Mchinji to match Chipata but yet he has been talking of developing Malawi to European standards which is which? This old man is not serious and is only day dreaming.
