President Lazarus Chakwera has arrived in Mangochi where he is scheduled to carry out several official duties in the eastern region.
Addressing thousands of people gathered at Mangochi Boma to welcome him, Chakwera expressed excitement to interact with the community and inspect development projects.
“I am thrilled to see so many of you here and I am eager to engage with you on various development projects,” he said.
Chakwera, however, emphasised the importance of maintaining peace and harmony among Malawians.
“We are a people who love and respect one another. Let us continue to show appreciation for each other and unite in our diversity,” he added.
Chakwera also expressed gratitude to religious leaders for their role in bringing harmony among people.
Earlier, Deputy Secretary General for the Malawi Congress Party (MCP), Gerald Kazembe praised Chakwera for the various development projects underway across the country.
“Here in Mangochi, we have seen the completion of several projects, including the Mangochi-Cape Maclear Road and the Nkhudzi-Bay water supply project.”
Kazembe, therefore, mentioned the upcoming rehabilitation of the Balaka-Zomba Road, saying it has been long overdue.
On his part, Senior Chief Chowe welcomed Chakwera to Mangochi, saying it demonstrates the President’s love and care for the people of the district and the whole eastern region in general.
