President Dr. Lazarus Chakwera says God sent his son Jesus to build a new Kingdom and a new government of justice and righteousness questioning Malawians whether they have accepted Jesus to be the ruler of their lives.
President Chakwera has advised Malawians to take Christmas to show love, justice and righteousness to those around them and surrender their lives to Jesus by asking him to include them in his Kingdom of life and righteousness.
In his Christmas message to Malawians, President Chakwera said surrendering one’s life to Jesus is the best thing that can happen to them saying he surrendered his life to Jesus as the ruler of his life at Mtendere Secondary School in Dedza district.
“I urge you to ask Jesus to be the ruler of your life,” said President Chakwera.
On Christmas Day, 25th December, 2024 as part of showing love, justice and righteousness to those around him, President Chakwera will visit and cheer patients at the Mangochi District Hospital the very same day former President of the Republic Professor Arthur Peter Mutharika was set to do the same.
Writing in a statement signed by the DPPs National Publicity Secretary Shadric Namalomba, District Commissioner for Mangochi refused to grant permission for Professor Mutharika to visit and cheer patients at the hospital after State House saw the announcement on social media and in a surprising move, they announced that President Chakwera is visiting the hospital on Christmas Day.
And the United Transformation Movement (UTM) President Dr. Dalitso Kabambe will on Christmas Day spread his Christmas cheer in the central region of Malawi through charitable visits to Kabudula Rural Hospital in Lilongwe, Mponela and Kasese Rural Hospitals in Dowa district.
In a communication from the UTM National Publicity Secretary Felix Njawala, the UTM is encouraging all of its supporters to join this noble and heartfelt initiative saying it is an opportunity to stand together in the spirit of giving and compassion during this festive season.
“Please note that no party logos are permitted inside hospital wards, but you are welcome to wear red attire, party colors may be displayed outside the wards, in accordance with hospital regulations,” reads the UTM communication in part.
