Following is a response from Senior DHD Data Specialist: Albert Themme.

There is no variable other than "SHDIST" to define the 28 districts, so you should go ahead with merging the following:

SHDIST = 107 "Mzuzu City" should merge with 105 "Mzimba"
SHDIST = 210 "Lilongwe City" should merge with 206 "Lilongwe"
SHDIST = 315 " Blantyre City" should merge with 305 "Blantyre"
SHDIST = 314 "Zomba City: should merge with 303 "Zomba"
