Prominent Governance and Human Rights Advocate Undule Mwakasungula has expressed optimism about the current administration’s dedication to enhancing governance, economic stability, infrastructure development, and the social welfare of Malawians.
While acknowledging the nation’s challenges, Mwakasungula stresses the importance of recognizing the government’s efforts to address these issues.
In response to the National Union for Concerned Citizens’ announcement of nationwide demonstrations on July 31, 2024, Mwakasungula says, although the right to demonstrate is protected, it is essential that such actions are conducted in good faith and with the broader national interest at heart.
“I encourage the National Union for Concerned Citizens and other groups to engage with the government through established dialogue platforms,” he says.
Mwakasungula has also called for coordinated efforts to prepare for the upcoming elections, ensuring they are conducted freely, fairly, and credibly to safeguard Malawi’s democracy.
