Lilongwe Chilobwe Constituency Member of Parliament Lawrence Chaziya has urged supporters of the Malawi Congress Party (MCP) to remain united and work together towards rebuilding the party.
Chaziya made the remarks during a meeting held at Msundwe in Lilongwe, where youths from the area organised a gathering to raise the party’s flag, demonstrating their commitment and renewed determination to strengthen the MCP.
He said former President and MCP leader Lazarus Chakwera was well-positioned to restore the party to government and address challenges facing the country.
The meeting was also attended by several senior party officials and Members of Parliament, some of whom openly acknowledged shortcomings in the party’s previous leadership and operations.
They expressed optimism that the party would learn from its past experiences and make the necessary changes to improve its performance.
The gathering proceeded successfully without any reported disturbances, despite earlier rumours suggesting that the Malawi Police Service was planning to stop the meeting.
The meeting has been viewed by party supporters as a demonstration of renewed commitment and efforts to strengthen the MCP at grassroots level.
