The constituency has several wards, all electing councilors for the Zomba District. In 2009, the member of parliament who represented the constituency was Jenipher Deborah Chilunga.[3][4]

In 2019 there was a considerable protest after Abu Naliwa was declared the winner. Five village headmen led the protest arguing that the result was rigged by the winner.[5]
