"It's with no doubt that my track record speaks for it self and if history of leadership is written, my space will be fundamental. During my reign, the new Mbalambala Constituency and district was curved out, health care was improved, accessibility of water in the rural parts, creation of new divisions, locations, sub locations, build new schools and fair distribution of bursaries across the constituency was felt,'' Duale said, Monday.

He further urged those who have been given the opportunity to lead at both the national and community level to organise and strategise the political future and the destiny of the people and country, with zeal.

Duale also serves as the National Assembly Majority Leader.
