Leader of the Democratic Progressive Party (DPP) in Parliament Mary Navicha is this afternoon scheduled to respond to President Dr. Lazarus Chakwera’s state of the nation address delivered in Parliament last week.

Speaker of Parliament Catherine Gotani Hara announced this during deliberations this morning in the August House.

MPs protested the decision to maintain Mulanje Central MP Kondwani Nankhumwa as leader of opposition in Parliament.
