Africa-Press<\/a> – Malawi<\/a>. <\/strong><\/span>Member of Parliament for Phalombe East Constituency, Robert Mwina, is planning to give grants to women and youth groups from the Constituency Development Fund (CDF) from next year. He revealed this during the commemoration of district\u2019s International Youth Day last Thursday at Thambe Primary School ground.<\/p>\n

In an interview, Mwina said soon after he was elected as a legislator in 2019 he sat down with his constituents where they developed an action plan which prioritised water development and construction of concrete bridges.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe planned to construct concrete bridges the whole constituency and that we should bring piped water in all the communities as you know that we don\u2019t need boreholes here as we have so many rivers, by next year we\u2019ll be done with these projects.<\/p>\n

\u201cCDF guidelines allow us to give back the money to people in form of grants, so we will do that so that we should empower our women and youths to be able to do businesses,\u201d said Mwina.<\/p>\n

In her remarks, Senior Chief Nkhulambe applauded the legislator for the plans he has for the area saying most of women in the area are suffering as it is difficult for them to access loans from village savings loans groups.<\/p>\n

\u201cOur women will be able to do business without thinking of a burden of loan repayments, through these loans they will be able to educate their kids and make their home adorable,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n

Wyson Luka, Chairperson for the district\u2019s youth network in a separate interview said he is happy with plans of the parliamentarian saying livelihoods of the youths will be uplifted once the plans are implemented.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt is difficult for the youths to borrow money from money lending institutions due to conditions which they attach, so if the legislator do this then my fellow youths from this area will be able to open small medium enterprises for their living,\u201d said Luka.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
