Africa-Press – Malawi. A grouping of youthful men of God across the country called Young Pastors Network has applauded President Lazarus Chakwera for a successful trip to the United Nations in United States of America where he among other things signed a US$350 million compact for Malawi under the Millennium Challenge Corporation (MCC).
Speaking at a press conference on Friday, October 7, in Mzuzu, President of the grouping Webster Kameme said the trip by the State President was meaningful and will benefit Malawians in the long run.
“We watched and followed different media outlets as President Chakwera engaged with multiple investors and cooperating partners which gives hope for Malawi.
“President Chakwera touched all the sectors including Agriculture, Education, Health, Energy and Sports,” he said.
Adding: “The President said it clear that the discussions were meant to benefit Malawi and that no political party should claim ownership or brag about the outcome, this is why Young Pastors network is urging all Malawians to support Dr. Chakwera’s agenda in order for this country to develop,” said Kameme.
He added that Malawians should give politics a break and prioritise development. “There is need to put our trust in God we will overcome the challenges we are going through, other challenges need Malawians to work hard.
“Malawians let’s give President Chakwera time, we have to remember where we are coming from, we had Covid, Cylone Ana all these were needing urgent attention,” he added.
During the United Nations trip, President Chakwera had an audience with Managing Director of the World Bank Group, Axel van Trotsenburg, on the US$1.5 billion investment package for Malawi expected to roll out soon.
He also met with International Monetary Fund (IMF) Managing Director Ms. Kristalina Georgieva. On his way back, Chakwera made a stop- over in Abu Dhabi for bilateral talks with the Royal family.
