They didn’t see Abida Mia coming. The kind-hearted Lady Abida has been crowned as the Queen of the South after she vigorously helped her Malawi Congress Party (MCP) to grab two parliamentary seats in the Lower Shire.
It was a historical victory for MCP in the Southern Region thanks to Mia who fought a good fight since the onset of the campaign with close assistance from MCP’s Deputy Director of Research Elias Karim, Deputy Secretary General Gerald Kazembe and senior party official Salim Bagus among others. Their hardwork, determination and game plan has paid them off. Winning against seasoned politicians, former Cabinet Minister and former Second Deputy Speaker of Parliament wasn’t a joke at all.
