Malawi hands over 40 housing units to military; 6,000 units tendering deferred
What happened
The government handed over 40 completed houses to the Malawi Defence Force at Mvera Support Battalion in Dowa District. These houses were constructed under the 10,000 Housing Units Project for Security Institutions. The government also disclosed plans to construct an additional 2,500 houses in the next financial year, though the tendering of the remaining 6,000 units has been deferred due to current economic challenges.
