By Burnett Munthali

Senior Malawi Congress Party (MCP) official in the Southern Region, Brown Mpinganjira, has strongly criticized opposition leaders for their continued resistance to government initiatives, including critical development projects aimed at improving the livelihoods of Malawians.

Speaking at Makata ground in Ndirande, Blantyre, during the launch of the Frank Bauleni Football and Bawo Trophy, Mpinganjira condemned opposition figures whom he accused of deliberately opposing every government policy and project, regardless of its benefits to the nation.

He emphasized that President Dr. Lazarus Chakwera’s administration is committed to implementing transformative projects that positively impact citizens, highlighting key initiatives such as road infrastructure development, youth empowerment programs, the National Economic Empowerment Fund (NEEF) loans, and the promotion of large-scale commercial farming.

Mpinganjira called on the people of Ndirande to rally behind Frank Bauleni in his bid for a councillorship position and to support President Chakwera in future elections to ensure continued national development.

He argued that sustainable progress could only be achieved if leaders who prioritize development were given the mandate to lead.

The event, which attracted various community members and football enthusiasts, served as a platform for engaging citizens on the significance of supporting developmental policies.

Mpinganjira’s remarks underscore the ongoing political debate between the ruling party and opposition figures regarding governance and economic transformation in Malawi.
