Former Minister of Finance in the Prof Arthur Peter Mutharika administration, Hon Joseph Mathyola Mwanamveka who is also DPP spokesman on financial matters in Parliament is on campaign trail to get views on the financial status of the country.
The Chiradzulu South legislator is kick-starting his exercise today in his constituency and later spread in other parts of the country.
In his brief message shared in WhatsApp groups by his aides, Mwanamveka says he decided to embark on the tour so that when he goes to Parliament he must present his case basing on the evidence he gathered on the ground.
“With his experience in the field of Finance, this gives DPP a good gesture to present their case in Parliament as people are crying with exorbitant fuel prices that has triggered inflation.” one of his Aides wrote.
The tour has been announced at a time when Mwanamveka is also eyeing for DPP Presidency in the forth coming convention where he is expected to battle it out with Leader of Opposition Kondwani Nankhumwa, Bright Msaka, Dalitso Kabambe, Walter Nyamilandu- Manda among others.
The problem will be that he will be getting views from DPP members who are very bitter at loosing the election and are doing everything possible to discredit the Tonse government. Otherwise his idea is ok
