It was crowdy in Kasungu South on Friday as Member of Parliament(MP) for the constituency Simplex Chithyola Banda made his turn to register in the just ended second phase of Malawi Electoral Commission (MEC) registration exercise.
Excitement and jubilations were self-telling as overzealous political fanatics escorted their leader.
It was clear that anticipation had met satisfaction as lyrics of hailment overflowed like January rains in the southern hemisphere.
Songs of glory throbbed with unquenchable pomp were everywhere as the finance and economic affairs minister arrived.
Speaking to the overexcited Kasungu southerners, Chithyola Banda said:”It is encouraging that people of Kasungu have come out in their multitudes to register for general elections come 2025.
“This registration serves an opportunity for all people of Kasungu South to re-elect Dr. Lazarus McCarthy Chakwera and Simplex Chithyola Banda as State President and Member of Parliament respectively.
“Fellow citizens of Santhe, we must maintain this leadership aggregation.
“I am highly delighted to witness your unwavering love and support for my legislative duty.
“As Chithyola Banda, I will continue dishing out various development programmes in this constituency in different sectors. We need quality life, don’t we? Boma ndi Lomweli.”
Malita Mafuta, one of the escortees, said:”We love our leader. He is humble. He is delivering. He is noisiless. We have registered. We are to give him a second term.”
