The Karonga Paramount Chief Kyungu has asked the “Tonse” led government to put aside political differences with other political groupings for Malawi to develop.

Paramount Chief Kyungu made the remarks while appealing to Vice President Saulos Chilima who is touring the construction works of the Karonga Water Supply that is underway in the border district.

Kyungu further called on the politicians not to keep on flocking to Karonga to see the site with the aim of drawing allowances while the project stalls.
