The Malawi Congress Party (MCP) is mourning the sudden loss of one of its aspiring councillors, John Manuel Kapitawo, who was vying for the Blantyre City South Lunzu Ward seat.
According to party officials, Kapitawo’s death has left a void in the party’s ranks.
Gerald Kazembe, MCP deputy secretary general, confirmed the news, describing Kapitawo’s passing as a shock to the party.
Details surrounding the circumstances of his death are still sketchy, but sources indicate that it was sudden and unexpected.
Kapitawo was known for his passion for community development and his dedication to serving the people of Blantyre.
As a councillor aspirant, he had been working tirelessly to promote the party’s agenda and connect with voters in his ward.
The news of Kapitawo’s passing has sent shockwaves through the Blantyre political scene, with many party members and supporters expressing their condolences.
The party will likely face challenges in finding a suitable replacement for Kapitawo, especially with upcoming elections on the horizon.
The people of Blantyre City South Lunzu Ward are also mourning the loss of a promising young leader who had shown great potential in public service. Our thoughts and prayers go out to Kapitawo’s family, friends, and colleagues during this difficult time.
As the MCP and the community come to terms with this tragic loss, one thing is certain: John Manuel Kapitawo will be remembered for his dedication to public service and his passion for making a difference in the lives of others.
