We want to have another hospital in that area because it is a huge catchment area and the hospital will at least help the people so that they don\u2019t have to travel so far to access medical help.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSo if they have to go Mgabu it\u2019s 12 to 15 Kilometres and if they have to go to the other hospital in Chipwaila health centre it is also about 12 to 15 Kilometres so by having that hospital in Miseu Folo Group Village Headman Mailoso it will assist the people around that area very much because they will not travel a long distance to access medical help,\u201d said Mia.<\/p>\n<p>According to Mia, she is going to use Constituency Development Funds (CDF) to build two houses for the staff and also to bring water at the clinic. \u201cThe funds for the houses will come from CDF because GSED can\u2019t manage everything so I will put my part by investing 40 Million for two houses,\u201d she added.<\/p>\n<p>During the launch, two DPP councillors in Chikwawa Mkombezi, Kholofati Malunga and Aubrey Masanza, jointly endorsed Abida Mia in the forthcoming 2025 elections as member of Parliament for that area.<\/p>\n<p>Speaking to the people who gathered at the ceremony, both Malunga and Masanza said they have endorsed Abida Mia because of the way Mia is utilizing the Constituency Development funds in that area.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe are DPP members, but today, we have endorsed Honorable Abida Mia so that she rules this constituency up to 2030 or so. The woman is performing very well if we come to development of this constituency. She is utilising the CDF in a proper manner. We need her performance,\u201d said Malunga.<\/p>\n<p>Commenting on the same, Mia welcomed the endorsement and promised to continue performing well in as far as developments of Chikwawa Mkombezi are concerned.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis obviously shows that they are confident in my work and the fact that I sit with them and discuss projects with the council what we need to do in the Constituency in both wards and am very fair and I always try to balance it so that everybody is happy,\u201d said Mia.<\/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.
