The Democratic Progressive Party (DPP) is set to embark on a massive whistle-stop tour in Mulanje on Sunday, January 26, 2025, under the theme “Return to the Proven Leadership of Professor Arthur Peter Mutharika”. This strategic move aims to reconnect the party with its grassroots supporters and mobilize support ahead of the upcoming elections.
The tour will be led by Hon. Joseph Mwanamvekha, DPP’s Vice President for the South, who will be joined by other top party leaders. These include Hon. Charles Mchacha, Regional Governor; Dr. George Chaponda, Leader of Opposition; Hon. Maria Mainja, Regional Director for the South; and several others, such as Hon. Daud Chida, Victor Musowa, and Santiago Phiri.
The whistle-stop tour will kick off at Mulanje Mission and proceed to Mathambi, followed by visits to the people of Kubango, Landandero, and finally, Mulanje Limbuli Constituency. This itinerary is designed to maximize engagement with local communities, a strategy that has proven effective in the party’s previous outreach efforts.
By bringing together top party leaders and engaging with citizens across various regions, the DPP aims to promote unity and outreach to people from all corners of the country. This tour is expected to be a significant show of force for the party, demonstrating its commitment to reconnecting with its supporters and fostering broad participation in the democratic process.
