President Dr Lazarus Chakwera has called upon Malawians to go in their large numbers to have their names registered in the voters roll.
Chakwera made the call at Mlamba in the area of Senior Chief Kambwiri, in Salima District.
He highlighted that for citizens to have a voting right they have to register and vote in the 2025 General Elections.
“For continuation of development go and register before registration closes, we should not take it for granted and shun registration, if you have not registered I am imploring you to do so now,” he said.
He added: “We should be each other’s keeper, if you see that your friend or neighbour has not registered, encourage them to register as soon as possible, we do not vote on the roads, by cheering but we vote in the ballot, this is only possible if you vote.”
Member of Parliament for Salima South East Constituency Mike Mwawa, echoed what President Chakwera said, by encouraging members from his constituency to register without fail.
“If you have not registered time is running out, registration here in Salima District closes on Sunday, November 3rd, go and register now,” Mwawa said.
Registration exercise for Salima district commenced on October 21st and will finish on 3rd November.
