Malawi leader President Dr. Lazarus McCarthy Chakwera, has made history in Blantyre when he made a history of becoming the first President to walk on foot while greeting people from Blantyre Nandozi to Sanjika Palace.

This is the first time for the sitting president to make such a heroic walk while interacting with the community.
