UTM party presidential aspirant Dr. Mathews Mtumbuka has urged politicians to prioritize locals’ wishes and aspirations in their development agenda.
He criticized leaders who favor friends and relatives, leaving rural populations behind.
“Malawians should not be used merely to gain leadership,” Mtumbuka said. “Everyone deserves a share of the national resources from taxes.”

He emphasized rural areas’ need for clean water, quality healthcare, education, and decent housing, not substandard materials.
Mtumbuka, a renowned anthropologist, stressed that only a visionary leader with corrupt-free public servants can achieve these goals.
In 2018, UTM’s national conference, which elected the late Saulos Klauz Chilima as president, endorsed the party’s inclusive development agenda.
Mtumbuka assured Malawians that electing him as UTM’s torchbearer would drive development beyond expectations.
