After receiving the petition on behalf of parliament, law maker, Juliana Lunguzi assured the two religious families that they will act in line with the issues outlined in the petition.

“I am a Catholic, a woman and at the same time a professional nurse and I wouldn’t accept the abortion bill and same sex marriages. Pray for us so that we are guided by the Holy Spirit when we are in the August house” said Lunguzi.

In an interview with Malawi24, Quadria Association of Malawi publicity secretary sheikh Jafali Kainga said human life must be looked after from time of woman conserving to time of death arguing that the bill is a direct attack to life.

The match saw Malawians against passing of the bill by storming the roads of Malawi on Tuesday morning.
