The Democratic Progressive Party (DPP) is intensifying its nationwide voter mobilization drive as the 2025 general elections loom closer. On Tuesday, the party's Vice President for the Central Region, Honourable Alfred Gangata, electrified Lilongwe Urban with a powerful call to action, urging thousands of residents to register with the Malawi Electoral Commission (MEC).
Addressing a vibrant crowd, Gangata underscored the importance of voter registration as the foundation for meaningful political change. He declared the DPP's mission to unseat the Malawi Congress Party (MCP) and reclaim governance.
"The future of our nation depends on your participation," Gangata told attendees. "We need every eligible voter to register. The time has come for change, and DPP is ready to take Malawi to greater heights."
Gangata seized the opportunity to highlight the hardships Malawians face under the MCP-led administration, including economic instability, escalating unemployment, and unmet development promises. He assured the crowd that the DPP offers a roadmap for a brighter future, marked by better leadership and economic reforms.
A Unified Front
The rally was bolstered by the presence of other senior DPP officials, local councilors, and grassroots activists. They echoed Gangata's message, stressing the urgency of active citizen participation in shaping the nation's future.
"We cannot afford complacency," one DPP official said. "Every vote will count in 2025, and it all begins with registration."
