President Dr Lazarus Chakwera has reiterated the need for all Malawians to unite in order to develop the country.
The President made the remarks on Saturday when he stopped over at Lunzu Trading Centre in Blantyre, on his way back to Lilongwe after completing developmental engagements in the Southern Region.
“I would like to plead with you; we are all Malawians, it does not matter what we differ in, whether we hold different creeds or political aspirations. As long as we are Malawians, we are all under one Malawian flag, as such, we are all called to unite with one purpose to develop our country,” said Chakwera.
The President, therefore, asked Malawians not to hold grudges, but advocate for love, saying the country can only develop if Malawians work as one.
The President said he is aware of the challenges Malawians were going through hence an assurance of government’s measures to lessen the impact such as the National Economic Empowerment Fund (NEEF) loans where all Malawians are eligible to benefit.
During the period the President was in the Southern Region, he handover of houses for police officers in Mangochi, launched the National Youth Service in Neno, opened the National Data Centre, hosted the National Anti-corruption conference and opened the 32nd Malawi International Trade Fair in Blantyre.
