She was speaking when she gave a tearful and lurid eulogy for the fallen chief who succumbed to Covid-19 earlier in the morning of the same day at Kamuzu Central Hospital in Lilongwe.
Ganda described Gogo Mbenje as a visionary chief who was full of development plans for Nsanje Lalanje constituency and the whole Nsanje District.
“As MP, my job was always easy, and I have been performing wonderfully because of the guidance that I received from Gogo Mbenje. The late Mbenje was a very prayerful family man who loved his wife and children; he also loved his people and his country, Malawi. He was visionary, corrupt-free, passionate, selfless empathetic; development conscious and a man of high integrity,” lamented
