The leader of the Democratic Progressive Party (DPP), Professor Peter Mutharika, has arrived in the capital city, Lilongwe, as part of his ongoing campaign activities ahead of the September 16 general elections.
Mutharika had earlier announced that he had embarked on a series of public engagements and rallies to reach out to Malawians across the country.
Speaking in Ntcheu prior to his arrival in Lilongwe, Mutharika declared his readiness to assume government power with the aim of tackling pressing national challenges.

He emphasized that, if elected, his administration would prioritize addressing hunger and reviving the economy, promising solutions to restore stability and improve livelihoods.
The DPP leader’s statements signal a campaign focused on economic recovery and food security, two issues that remain central to the concerns of many Malawians.
*Concluding Analysis*
Mutharika’s arrival in Lilongwe and his promises ahead of the September elections reflect a campaign strategy centered on national issues that resonate with ordinary citizens.
By emphasizing hunger alleviation and economic revival, he positions himself as a candidate focused on practical solutions rather than political rhetoric.
As the campaign trail continues, the effectiveness of these messages will depend on their reception by the electorate and the ability of his party to demonstrate actionable plans.
The DPP’s focus on tangible socioeconomic concerns underscores the high stakes of the upcoming election and the expectations Malawians hold for meaningful change.
