Malawi Congress Party (MCP) Vice President Muhammad Sidik Mia has refuted rumours hovering on the social media that Tonse Alliance torchbearer Dr. Lazarus Chakwera is sick, saying the reports are untrue.
Mia refuted the claims through a statement posted on his official facebook page seen by this publication.
“I was quizzed yesterday in Nkhotakota on the absence of the incoming President, Dr Lazarus Chakwera, as he was scheduled to be the guest speaker. I responded saying he was enganged with equally important business hence delegating me to address the rally.
“Today, social media propagandists are at it, peddling lies that the incoming President is not feeling well…that he is this, oh he is that!,” wrote Mia.
He added: “The President, as I said, is fine and we must thank the Almighty God that we will for once, have a President who is enjoying a clean bill of health, one who is fit to run the affairs of the State.
“your own information, this morning, the President met Honorable Kwacha Chisiza. The Honorable Chisiza is the last born of the late Yatuta Chisiza and they met in a rare gesture of healing past wounds so we can move on together towards nation-building.”
Mia has since urged Malawians to turnout in large numbers and vote in the fresh Presidential polls scheduled for June 23, 2020
“We now have few days to go before we take back our country from plunderers of our national purse.
“Let us all turn-out in our large numbers to vote for Dr Chakwera and Dr Chilima,” said Mia.
Chakwera will face President Peter Mutharika in the fresh Presidential polls.
