DPP replaces central region governor Josiah-Banda: Kutsaira takes over
As Malawi’s ruling party Democratic Progressive (DPP) continue to make charges in its rank and file ahead of next year’s sticky Tripartite elections, the party has removed its regional governor for the centre, Dean Josiah Banda and replaced him with Bintony Kutsaira.



However, the party has said it has redeployed Josiah to other duties.
Kutsaira, who is former State chief spy, when contacted on phone could not comment on the matter .
“Talk to [Hetherwick] Ntaba or the secretary general of the party,” he said.
DPP secretary general Grezelder Jeffrey wa Jeffrey said she has seen a letter of Kutsaira’s appointment dated March 12 2018 but said could not comment because she was in a place where network is very bad.
“The phone is faint. Let’s talk later so I can comment clearly,” she said.
DPP administrative secretary Francis Mphepo said President Peter Mutharika was Kutsaira to build the party in the central region.
Mphepo said Josiah-Banda has been appointed presidential adviser on political affairs.
Josiah Banda , a business tycoon and former football administrator, took over the regional governor post when he replaced late Eclain Kudontoni who was promoted to be the party’s Secretary general.
Kutsaira has been a political nomad, he first cut his political teeth in Malawi Congress Party (MCP) where he once once served as its member of parliament.
He then joined DPP and defected to Peoples Party when it was in power where he served as Deputy Minister of Agriculture Bintoy before rejoining MCP and now is back to DPP fold.

Shitholes recycled. What can good looking Kutsaira bring to dpp. This is just a continuation of plunder of our resources. I really do not know what really excites APM at the age of 80. He is failing to lead us wisely. He is involved in so many stupid mistakes. This man is totally different from Bingu. It is doubtful if they came from the same parents.
Offcourse they did both very intelligent!
Komatu kudzakhala kutsegula mmimba nthawi imeneyo hahahahahahahaha!! wokanidwa utasanduka wa pa ngodya. the very same Chakwera mukumuonera m,botoloyu ali Captain. kikkkkkkkkkk kaya izo zanu. I refused to be ruled by mafias.
In all the five general elections MCP had been singing TIWINA,TIWINA,TIWINA. No wonder it is the same song for the 2019 elections. Ndi nyimbo basi koma wokha akudziwa kuti sangawine chisankho.
Ana a Ku zibwenzi anyanyuka kulowa MCP. Bravo the genuine Matenje family for disassociating the family from such an embarrassing move.
MBC congratulations for your good new educative and informative programmes of Sapita Kawiri ndi Ndikati Chete.
Ana a Ku zibwenziwa sadziwa zomwe zinachitika mchaka cha 1983 kuti four prominent citizens left their homes for parliament in Zomba only to have their bodies returned home later wrapped in prison blankets by MCP’s trademark of killing.
It is sad that these kids, after eating mang’ina, made such tear shedding announcement. We are expecting these toddlers to apologize to the genuine families of the victims of MCP atrocities. To avoid a repeat of that disrespect for human life, Malawians vote for APM in May 2019.
Ubwino wake MBC yo umayimvera wekha. Anthu anasiya kuwonelela or kumvera MBC. MCP 2019 boma kale ayise.
Hatton,
You are a shame. If you can still cry for those who died in 1983 what about our youngman Chasowa at Poly. Hopefully you are being given cash. One thing you have to know is that God sees everything we are doing. Ifenso tinali momo but truly speaking DPP has lost direction. Your relatives, including mine are suffering in our villages.
MCP did not kill anyone, it was MCP leaders. So ask yourself which leaders ordered the murders of the Four. Ask Hetherwick Ntaba of DPP about the killings of MCP. Ask Nicholas Dausi how they used to carry out orders at MYP. Those are the people with mentality to kill. If a Bank Manager steals money from one bank, and goes to work for another bank, it doesn’t mean he has stopped being a thief.
Ndale simumazidziwa afinye inu. DPP kuti ipeze majority of seats in the Centre election ya 2009 mpakana 67% siBinton yemweyu. Malemu Bingu kuwina achina Kasungu, Dowa, Nchisi big time. Strategist wake tu anali Binton ndi amene anacheza masamu akuCentre. Nde ignore him at your own peril!
Mr Zaya, i think you were not there that time of Bingu when he massed the whole central Region.
Let me tell you what happened and off course will happen again.
People loved Bingu almost the whole country, that was before he started his games if you heard about him, that was the reason why these places you have mentioned here voted for him, it was not because of this Binton you are talking about here muna. by the way is he an MP? am failing to remember if he made it, anyway that is not the case.
Back to the story, because people loved Bingu, there was another mistake happened that time if you heard about it, the coalition of M.C.P and U.D.F added fire on Bingu pushing him to be loved more than the time Bakili Muluzi chose him.
Therefore people wanted to show that coalition or not coalition, when they love the person, they will vote for him.
Now i said this will happen, Mr Zaya I can challenge you that Malawians are not fools as you think, the Binton knows it well that is why they are trying to join ruling party so that they can have their last meal and or last super. Mr Zaya stop seeing things in a narrow imagination.
People has said a lot when the young Matenjes and Chiwangas joined M.C.P, can we say they dont have the right to join the party they want just because they are young Matenjes and Chiwangas? Chakwera will win this time, kaya adzakhala with very few MPs but he is going to be the president of Malawi, because people will make sure that they are out of this mafia Government of to day.
Kaitano
It is your wishful thinking that l was not there and l have no problem with that. Bingu was loved – yes –
because there were people mobilising for him on the ground and behind the scenes. Majority yaMafumu aku Centre if you care to remember were all on the side of malemu Bingu and I repeat this without fear of contradiction – architect/strategist of all this was none other than Binton Kuntsaila. Prof Peter Mutharika was there as Foreign Affairs Minister and he knows very well the capabilities of Binton hence he has romped him in. It is not a coincidence but its by design that he has brought him back in the fold he (Prof Mutharika) knows what he is doing. Chakwera wanuyo awinila kuti MCP ikuphwasuka yokha day and night? Stop dreaming Kaitano, wake up and smell the coffee. DPP ine ndimanena nthawi ndi nthawi zambili they have 1001 ways – yes you read me well – (one thousand and one ways) of winning elections – Panopa they have used ONLY two in 2009 and in 2014 kuchosa Joyce Banda. I will tell you again and listen to me carefully – IGNORE BINTON KUNTSAILA AT YOUR OWN PERIL!
No one told us to love Bingu but it was automatic because of the way how he did to Malawians, simukuva pati nanuso? ask your friends, this is not politics but the truth muna. You remember he was given the name Ngwazi? do you know the reason why? Am from Central, i loved Bingu more than Bakili, and am sure even Hatton and Santana can say the same, am not saying it is wrong to pick Binton as it has happen, no i do nt have any problem with that, am just talking about why Bingu massed the central region votes that time per your say.
In as long as DPP is recycling its rank and file with tried and tested politicians, it will not make any headway come May 2019. This is an opportunity for DPP to bring in the youth (young blood) that has energy, agility and the ability to appeal to the youth. It is a fact that Malawi over 60% of its voting population is younger than 35 years. Strategically it makes sense to target this segment, if not DPP will win probably with a 15% mandate making it the most hang parliament in the history of Malawi. It will be a nightmare to pass any policy as was the case in the case a few years back. Your UDF alliance partner is losing its support base and therefore cannot be relied upon to bring in the much needed equity or votes. therefore DPP’s hope is the voting-age youth. It is a given that these delinquent and corrupt politicians won’t take DPP anywhere unless the party is seriously pursuing looting of high magnitude; then probably you have the right people in place. However, know that Malawians are now waking up from their slumber albeit slowly. You may just be surprised with the voting patterns come May 2019. Your Excellency Professor Mutharika, you better change your tact otherwise its goodbye state house. Start putting young generation in positions of power and mentor them for greatness and visionary leadership. Its the right to do and you’ll forever thank me for the advice I am giving you for free.
Uku nde kutha ma plan dpp ndithu, sanza zokhazokha tsopano. You mean dpp is broken in the central region and you want Kutsaira to build it? Nde mwapeza builder wokanika, wopanda zida komanso chikakambwe chamunthu. Cholinga azithandiza chigiledala chaku Nkhotakota kutukwana MCP mmisonkhano yodzala miyala hehehe muli mmadzi, mukodza simunati. Nde musintha kangati maudindowo? MCP nyoooooodoooo!!!
Mukuoneka kuti choice ya Kunsaira yakupwetekani kwambili. Mukunjenjemera nayo. If it was such a bad choice you would have been happy and kept quite knowing things will be ok for you. Your reaction just shows kuti DPP has scored a huge political mile by picking Kunsaila as its regional governor
Bomba ilo!!!!! Wina akomoka, makamaka nkhani ya magazi m’manja a MCP uyu ndiye aziyimasula bwinibwino m’misonkhano ya a President. So if it is the president’s rally both Wa Jeffrey and Kuntsaira will be speakers hitting the MCP badly. Kuli gule.
Inu ndiye mufuna muzimva zopusazo..zomatukwana pansonkhano? Zachichikalekale. Kuti muzinamiza anthu cholinga akuvoteleni? Not todays Malawi. Even anthu akumuzi aziwa kuti mukunama. DPP kapumeni tiwoneko zina chonde.
That is not a campaign issue. Anthu anatopanazo. Ana achiwanga remember have joined MCP.
We still remember Chasowa’s death and the 20 victims who brutally lost their lives in Mzuzu.
Kumtsaila palibe chomwe angabweretse chachilendo…..
Iwe zimenezo sizingagwire ntchito pano. panopo olo DPP itapanga chani chachilendo chanu palibe. Tamangopakirani 2019 yayandikira. You will be voted out, mbava zachabechabe
Ikanakhala MCP bwezi malubwelubwe atadzazana apa. A Kaliwo katengeni injunction. Uku akungosankha
Kutsaira,another political prostitute.
So Pita wa Mathanyura can make single handed appointments withour any uproar from the fucken mouth fouling DPP zealots, if it was Chakwera eeeeeehhhh ma injunctions nkati
