"We feel there is a conspiracy against things that have made Zomba a city. This conspiracy is through a systemic reversal of key social activities that we have been associated with."

"During the primary elections only 1,300 people voted but Zomba Central Constituency has over 40,000 registered voters therefore 1,300 people cannot speak for the 40,000 people."

"I made the decision to contest following requests by traditional leaders and the people who voted for me in the 2014 elections."

"I explained plans to develop Zomba City by continuing with the construction of new roads and building new schools, developing Gymkhana Club into an Olympics Centre and expanding Zomba City boundaries among others."

"This is a crisis that government needs to sort out immediately. Otherwise, the gains made in areas such as maternal health and HIV will be quickly eroded."

"Patients at Zomba Central Hospital are going without food."

"First, it was the removal of parliament, I therefore urge the President to spend some time in Zomba so that he can fully appreciate the social and economic dynamics in the city."
