MANGOCHI-(MaraviPost)-The CCAP Blantyre Synod has endorsed former President Peter Mutharika, giving him benedictions ahead of the General Elections on September 16, 2025.
A delegation of 71 clerics from the synod visited Mutharika at his private residence, Page House, to offer prayers and benedictions for his well-being and guidance.
