On Friday, November 15th, Professor Mutharika will lead the DPP NGC members orientation workshop at Lotus Hotel, commencing at 9:00 a.m.
This workshop aims to equip party members with the necessary knowledge and skills to drive the party’s agenda forward.

Professor Mutharika’s presence at these events underscores his dedication to the DPP’s growth and success.
As the party’s president, he has been instrumental in shaping its vision and direction.
His leadership has been marked by efforts to promote economic empowerment, particularly among women, as seen in initiatives such as the National Women’s Lobby and Rights Group (NAWOLG).
The upcoming events in Blantyre demonstrate the DPP’s commitment to grassroots engagement and community development.
As the party prepares for future elections, these gatherings serve as opportunities for members to reconnect and reaffirm their support.
This week’s events in Blantyre mark a significant moment for the DPP and its leadership.
With Professor Mutharika and Gertrude Mutharika at the forefront, the party is poised to continue its mission of promoting democratic values and progressive policies in Malawi.
