Mutharika takes vote hunt in KK: Says Kaphatenga-Nkhotakota to Nkhata Bay turn off road construction to start soon
President Peter Mutharika, who is seeking re-election as ruling Democratic Progressive Party (DPP) presidential candidate in the May 21 tripartite elections, has said government will soon start constructing the M5 road from Kaphatenga in Salima to Nkhata Bay turnoff which is currently in bad state.
Mutharika said this during the whistle-stop campaign rallies he conducted on Sunday at Dwangwa, Liwaladzi, Lozi, Nkhotakota Boma and Mkaika Trading Centre in Nkhotakota ahead of the May 21 tripartite elections.
Speaking to the mammoth crowds that gathered in all the five places, Mutharika said government has already identified a contractor for the work and said mobilization of equipment was in progress.
Mutharika asked the people to vote wisely during the coming tripartite elections by choosing him and DPP Members of Parliament and Councilors for continued development in Nkhotakota.
“I am not here to be politicking. DPP is here to bring development, we have left politicking to the small boys,” said Mutharika, adding he was tired of seeing people in poverty.
He then promised the people of Nkhotakota that the next DPP government would construct a community technical college in each of the 193 constituencies of the country, in addition to the 28 technical colleges government is constructing in each district.
Mutharika warned them against voting for opposition politicians, saying they have nothing to offer.
“You remember they tried to force me sell maize abroad, which could have resulted into hunger. But the maize which they wanted me to sell is the one we are distributing to hunger stricken people and those who were affected by natural disasters” he said.
The President said he will continue with the social protection programs for the vulnerable and poor people despite resistance from opposition parties. He said the programs help address the challenges the poor people face.
He said government would increase the number of beneficiaries for Social Cash Transfer besides continuing with the Malata Subsidy Program and the targeted Farm Input Subsidy program (FISP) among others

This is called the Lakeshore Road. Just do it. We have a few weeks.
Agogo akapume. We need an energetic young man to turn things around in this miserable country.
Peter Mutharika my President, I would rather you go home and rest. Why are you torturing your good self like this? Go home and drink tea please. What is it about power that folks don’t want to leave it? Just have a good look at yourself in the picture above. You are tired, man!
Agogo at 80+ should really be either enjoying retirement and playing with grand/great grandchildren at home or be looked after in a care home.
