Chikwanje also took the opportunity to remind Malawians of the many developmental projects initiated under the leadership of former President Arthur Peter Mutharika, fondly referred to as APM by his supporters. “Most of the developments we see in the country today started during the time of APM,” he said, urging Malawians to support Mutharika in the future to allow him to complete the work he started.
