Gadama therefore urged people in the country to avoid voting out women parliamentarians for the sake of changing MPs before assessing their performances and achievements.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cLet me appeal to people in the country to avoid voting out MPs for the sake of it, people should rather asses what the MP has done during her tenure,\u201d she added.<\/p>\n<p>Gadama further urged fellow women parliamentarians to never let down people that voted them to parliament saying the people had hope in them that they will deliver and fulfil campaign promises.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBe accountable to people that voted for you and do all your best to fulfill the campaign promises,\u201d Gadama appealed to fellow women parliamentarians. She also appealed to 50-50 campaigners to keep on campaign as opposed to starting campaigning for women closer to election time.<\/p>\n<p>Gadama said continuous 50-50 campaign has the potential to help raising adequate awareness on the importance and benefits of voting for more women into parliament.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/malawi\">Malawi<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Malawi.
