Vuwa gets the node  unopposed in DPP  primaries for Nkhata Bay Central

President Peter Mutharika’s advisor on  youth affairs Symon Vuwa Kawunda, who is also ruling Democratic Progressive Party (DPP) National Director of  Logistics, went through unopposed in the party’s Nkhata Bay  Central primary elections held at Kalambwe school ground.

According to presiding officer Reverend Mwayi Kamuyambeni, no one came forth to challenge Vuwa.

He was once a Member of Parliament  for the constituency for ten years but lost to incumbent People’s Party leader in parliament Ralph Mhone in the 2014 tripartite elections.

The DPP membership’s unanimous approval  of Kawunda’s parliamentary candidature, puts the former
cabinet minister on a seemingly positive start towards  reclaiming his Nkhata Bay Central seat in the incoming  polls.

“I am destined for victory,” Kaunda  told his cheering supporters.

During the same primaries, Edwin Mhone  won as DPP’s local government candidate for Nkhata Bay
Central Boma ward.

In his remarks, Kamuyambeni who is also  DPP’s Director of Operations, urged the party’s supporters
to register for voting in their large numbers.

Apparently, voter registration in  Nkhata Bay starts end of this month.

“Go and register so you vote for President Professor Arthur Peter Mutharika to continue his development agenda,” said Kamuyambeni.

Taking his turn, DPP Deputy Governor  for Central Region Davie Kambalame called for unity among party members.

Last week, DPP Secretary General  Glezelder Geffrey aemphasized that the party would not favour anyone and not  entertain any acts violence during its primaries.
