United Transformation Movement lawmaker Catherine Mzumara credited the Democratic Progressive Party with superior economic stewardship during her first parliamentary address, responding to the State of the Nation speech. The Mzimba North representative, who holds a doctorate in economics, contrasted what she characterized as effective DPP fiscal management with weaker performance under the recently removed Malawi Congress Party government, citing research spanning economic trends since 1994.

Mzumara told journalists on Friday that her analysis identified stronger growth and single-digit inflation during DPP administrations led by the late Bingu wa Mutharika and Arthur Peter Mutharika between 2004 and 2019. She expressed confidence that President Peter Mutharika's outlined agenda would eliminate hunger, ensure universal education access, and provide safe water across communities if implemented as presented.

The remarks arrive as citizens pressure the restored DPP administration to stabilize prices, strengthen the kwacha, and restore economic momentum following the political transition.
