Gelard Kazembe is a Member of Parliament for Mangochi Monkey Bay in Malawi, representing the Malawi Congress Party (MCP). He previously served as the party's deputy secretary general before resigning from that role. Recently, Kazembe made headlines for his surprising endorsement of the ruling Democratic Progressive Party's (DPP) significant increase in the Constituency Development Fund (CDF) from K200 million to K5 billion. This marked a notable shift in his political stance, as he had been a vocal critic of President Peter Mutharika and the DPP in the past. Kazembe has described the funding increase as a transformative opportunity for grassroots development, urging all Malawians to support the initiative regardless of political affiliation.
