Dr Jane Ansah Engages Chiefs, Architects of Development

Dr Jane Ansah SC, on Thursday, July 30, 2025, got the blessings of Inkosi ya Makosi Gomani V at Nkolimbo headquarters in Ntcheu district after she was named the running mate by Professor Arthur Peter Mutharika.

Speaking after visiting the traditional leader, Ansah said the institution of traditional leadership is rooted in the understanding that these leaders are valuable assets in promoting development, maintaining social order and preserving cultural heritage.

“From September 16, our administration that will be led by Professor Arthur Peter Mutharika and other alliance partners, AFORD whose leader is Enoch Chihana is committed to working with traditional leaders with an aim of achieving rural development.

It is key to develop our rural areas to respond to urban migration by giving them basic needs such as clean water, good road infrastructure, affordable prices of fertilizer, contain the runway inflation which has ripple effect on the lives of every citizen among others.

The incompetence in the coming administration as seen today won’t be there. This will be about business for the poor people and not the rich, where shared prosperity, true freedom and meaningful equality strive,”, said Jane Ansah the former Justice of Appeal.

She added that as a country we must be proud of the journey we have travelled according to the institution of traditional leadership and the stature it deserves.

Odya Zake Promises to End Hunger, Floods and Water Crisis in Nsanje

At Ntowe Trading Centre in T/A Ndamera, just a short distance from the Maraca border with Mozambique and Nsanje Boma, Vice President of Malawi and President of Odya Zake Alibe Mlandu, Dr. Michael Usi, laid out a bold vision for the Lower Shire. He told the people that hunger, floods, and lack of clean water will no longer define Nsanje under an Odya Zake government. To deal with floods, he promised the introduction of early warning systems and relocation of families from flood-prone zones to safer highlands, saying disaster management must be permanent and practical. On hunger, Dr. Usi urged communities to move beyond maize dependency and diversify into crops like potatoes and other high-value produce. He pledged affordable inputs, irrigation, and farmer support clubs to guarantee food security and sustainable incomes. Water, he said, is life, and Odya Zake will invest in boreholes, gravity-fed systems, and small dams so that every household has access to clean, safe water. Above all, Dr. Usi put the youth at the centre of change. He promised soft loans for enterprise and innovation, declaring that young people must not be reduced to tools of politicians but be empowered to shape the country’s destiny. “Odya Zake will not be built on tribe or party loyalty,” he declared, “but on skills, integrity and the will of Malawians themselves.”

Mwanamvekha Reaffirms Mutharika’s Return to Fix the Economy

Mwanamvekha said that when Chakwera took presidential office in 2020, he found things at very low prices, for example; sugar was at 550 kwacha, now it has reached 4500 kwacha and is even scarce, soap was at 50 kwacha, now it’s at 1000 kwacha, fertilizer was at 18,000 kwacha, now it’s at 155,000 kwacha, fuel was at 700 kwacha per liter, now it’s at 2730 kwacha, foreign currency was available, now it’s scarce, to mention just a few things. This is proof that Chakwera has ruined the economy of this country. But don’t worry because Professor Arthur Peter Mutharika is coming back to fix the economy of this country as he did by reducing inflation which was at 36% as of February 2013 to 9% in 2019 , resulting in the massive decline of goods and services prices, economic growth and prosperity of our nation. What you need to do is to vote on 16th September for President Professor Arthur Peter Mutharika, Blue Alliance shadow MPs, and shadow Councilors to rescue Malawi from the current consuming fire.
