Member of Parliament for Dowa South East, Halima Daudi, has described the official opening of the Jumpha Health Centre as a historic milestone for her constituency.
The state of the art facility, constructed with support from the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter day Saints, is expected to benefit more than 13,000 households.

It will provide quality healthcare services, clean water, and improved maternal and child health care to communities that previously had to travel long distances to Dzaleka, Mtengowanthenga, or Dowa District Hospital for treatment.
Speaking during the commissioning ceremony, Daudi said the project will significantly ease the burden of accessing medical care and improve the overall well-being of families in the area.
She emphasized that the initiative reflects her commitment to fulfilling campaign promises and aligns with President Lazarus Chakwera’s vision of enhancing healthcare delivery across the country.
“I sincerely appreciate our partners from the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints for their generous support and investment in this life-changing facility,” said Daudi.
“When I promised to improve health services for communities around Jumpha, I meant it and today, that promise has been fulfilled,”she added.
She further revealed that similar health projects are already underway in Chunzu and Chibvala, underscoring her dedication to bringing essential services closer to the people.
