Dedza, November 22, Mana: Leader of the House in Parliament, Richard Chimwendo Banda, has called on Members of Parliament (MPs) to go into their communities and work for the people.

Banda made the call Thursday during the parliament session outside the chamber, which took place at Dedza stadium.

According to Banda, the MPs are allocated resources for various projects in their communities hence the need for them to make better use of such resources.

“Let’s go down to work. For newcomers, you never know how painful it is to be outside parliament. If you wish to retain the seat you hold now, you need to deliver. Let’s make the best use of the K200 million Constituency Development Fund (CDF) among other development baskets,” he said.

He said through the same CDF, others have built police stations while others have managed to build bridges, among others.

Dedza South MP, Ishmael Ndaila Onani, hailed Parliament for taking the deliberations closer to the people describing it a great achievement.

“Let’s be servant leaders,” he said.
