Susan Dossi is a Malawian member of the National Assembly for Chikwawa West Constituency. She is the chair of the he Parliamentary Committee on Media and Communications.
Life
Dossi is the daughter of Moses Dossi who had been Malawi's sports minister. He died in 2024.
She was elected for the Chikwawa West Constituency in May 2019 as an independant, but she then joined the DPP. She has been the National Assembly's vice chairperson for media, communication and information. She is a member of Malawi’s Parliamentary Women’s Caucus.
On 23 June 2020 her party the DPP lost the election. Dossi changed her allegiance and joined the United Transformation Movement (UTM).
In 2021 she gave our starter kits to children from her constituency who have been accepted by National Secondary Schools. She encouraged them to work hard so that they can assist their neighborhood and go on to university. The students received school bags, luggage, clothes and writing materials.
Dossi wore sackcloth to the National Assembly to draw attention tothe poor state of the local road to Chapananga. On February 2024 she was welcoming the news that the President had announced that the Chikwawa road was to be repaired. The road would give access to nearby Mozambique for exports of farm produce and allow better access to medical facilities.
In 2024, as part of her role as chair of the Parliamentary Committee on Media and Communications, she was reminding public bodies about Malawi's Access to Information Act which was passed on 2016 and came into force in 2020.
