Africa-Press – Malawi. <\/strong><\/span>Zomba Malosa parliamentarian Grace Kwelepeta on Friday spent a night at the Zomba Works Training Center to force authorities divert the truck loaded with maize to her constituency.<\/p>\n

Kwelepeta was still guarding the truck on Saturday morning. She said if at all the truck leaves the premises, its destination should be Zomba Malosa constituency.<\/p>\n

The parliamentarian claims that her constituents have just benefited once from the free maize distribution, while other areas are being assisted monthly as per government arrangements.<\/p>\n

She has vowed to continue the vigil at the district commissioner\u2019s office should authorities snub the initiative. Zomba DC Reinhard Chavula is yet to comment.<\/p>\n
