“Regardless of numerous hardships, you stood up and shatter shackles for the betterment of women power, youth power, farmers and people in the villages to have a better life.

“Today , I respectfully pay homage to all those who contributed and sacrificed their resources for the development to take place. I humbly bow down to their penance in giving us this socioeconomic transformation,” said Chitsulo who is also Parliamentary Chairperson on Public Appointments Committee.

“May the year 2023 be one in which we spare neither strength nor courage to move the constituency forward. We are also encouraged to build a united and inclusive society where we care for and help each other,’ pleaded Chitsulo.
