From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Life

[edit]

Tambala represented Mulanje North in the National Assembly of Malawi.[3]

She entered parliament again in 2019 but no party had a majority and the hung parliament may have led to slow decisions. The Democratic Progressive Party President Peter Mutharika appealled to independants like Tambala to support the government. 32 agreed including Tambala, Susan Dossi, Roseby Gadama and Nancy Chaola Mdooko.[3] Another report mentioned 19 MPs including Naomi Phiri, Mary Connie Livuza Mpanga and Mary Khembo.[4]
