Mutharika vows never to allow MCP back in power: Malawi leader brands UTM ‘movement of insults’

President Peter Mutharika has vowed never to allow the opposition Malawi Congress Party (MCP) back in government, describing the veteran opposition as a party of darkness and murderers.

Mutharika: MCP to rule Malawi again, over my dead body

In a Talk to the President program to be aired on Thursday on State-controlled MBC, Mutharika said as long as he is alive, the main opposition in parliament will never win an election.

“As long as Peter Mutharika is alive, I will never allow them to rule this country again. This is a party of darkness. This is a party of murderers. We will never allow them to rule the country again,” he said.

There was no immediate comment from the MCP.

MCP has of late been overshadowed by the new strongest political force of Vice-President Saulos Chilima and his United Transformation Movement (UTM).

UTM has taken the Malawi political landscape by storm, with the vice president’s clear agenda capitalising on the political weaknesses of the governing Democratic Progressive Party (DPP) which include corruption, nepotism, and cronyism in government.

Chilima’s political motto is to ‘drain the swamp’ of all its vices.

Commenting on Chilima and the UTM, Mutharika accused them of running the campaign on the basis of insulting him and the DPP officials.

“Can you really run the whole presidential campaign on the basis of insulting others? This is ridiculous,” he said.
He also tore apart Chilima’s promise of creating one million jobs, saying this was impossible.

Mutharika has dodged the private media to articulate his agenda and instead prefers the state controlled Malawi Broadcasting Corporation.

  1. This is a very serious issue not to be .taken lightly. Now I can believe those who are prophesise blood shed in 2019 to be right. This is very unfortunate statement from head of state.His statement has three serious implications:
    1.He will use his powers to bulldose the results of elections if they seem to favou MCP
    2. He will use MEC to rig the election against MCP
    3. He will suspend or he will not except the results of election if MCP will be winning.
    If one of these three implications occurs at expenses of preventing MCP,blood shed is likely to occur and those prophencising bloodshed in 2019 will be proved right.This the right to prevent such serious events to occur.Where are the civil societies to question suchstatement.?Don’t only focus on monitory issues but also look at controvential issues that bring blood shed and infringe human rights.

  2. Just like the president we all are not listening attentively. Mutharika is stating clearly a fact…..in as long as he is alive he will not allow any party to rule Malawi or put it more clearly; he will not allow any party to “win” elections even of it means by crooked means. Remember that in elections, it is not the voting that matters but those who count the votes. MEC is under Mutharika wing and therefore his statement is scary if put in the right context. We must be very afraid….very afraid.

  3. Just you wait. You will have a shock of your life when the MCP replaces you next year and fate will not be so kind as this will not happen over your dead body so that you can experience and appreciate good governance which has eluded us for the past four years. On a different note, I am disappointed that a whole president cannot differentiate between past and post referendum MCP. The party you term murderouss is now clean and rebranded unlike your DPP which has been famous for wrong things since it’s birth.

    Before I forget, I am told investigators into the brutal murders of Chasowa and Njauju, among others, are looking for loyal citizens to assist them with enquiries. I believe some witnesses are high profile DPP members.

  4. With the blood of innocent Malawians especially that of the hated Northerners,I strongly support Muthalika’s remarks on the MALAWI CONFUSIONIST PARTY(MCP) However,having said that,Iam not a dear friend of corrupt DPP.MCP has killed a good number of brilliant northerners VIZ: DUNDUZU K.CHISIZA,YATUTA K.CHISIZA,ORTON C.CHIRWA,KANYAMA CHIUME,MATUPI MKANDAWIRE,LUTENGANO MWAHIMBA and other brilliant Malawians VIZ: AUGUSTINE W.BWANAUSI,ATATI MPHAKATI,HARRY JONGA etc. The people of Malawi have suffered a lot under the MCP and we must not vote for this inhuman Party.Afterall,how would an African country to be ruled by an Arab terrorist,are you not ashamed? Comes,2019,vote for UTM led by brilliant and nationalistic S.CHILIMA.TO HELL WITH MURDOROUS AND TRIBALISTIC MCP AND DPP.

    1. If God forgive His killers who are we that we can’t even borrow a leaf from Him!! Every person need to forgive his enemies and or detractors for we too need forgiveness from God Almighty for our shortcomings!! Failure to forgive is a big sign of how evil one is!! God have mercy on msowoya……………………………………………….for his failure to abide by Your advice that we should be forgiving others!!

  5. ukabotandiiwetu,,pali chomwe wachita chomwe ungatiuze kuti tisakavotere mcp?we counting down u hv less than 9mnths in tht office,,mtsogoleri wanji osaganizira anthu ukakhala kumangoganiza zokuba basi,,me wl mak sure dpp never rule Malawi again

  6. You will never allow an opposition to rule this country,why are you saying this?So you mean even if the MCP or UTM wins you will try by all means to steal our votes for you to remain in power?Mind you,it is the will of people not you.And for your information,that is a very big insults to the whole country a sitting president to say those remarks.We are in a democracy and voters are the ones who decide.See you in May 2019

  7. Indeed MCP is going to rule over his dead body, he is right. Uzazivotera wekha kapeni azizabota ndianthu ena. I suppose it is those with big brains that die of cardiac arrest. Awa mumutu munadzadza chuku.

  8. Mr. President do you mean you are planning not to accept results on 21 May 2019? is this how democracy works? did the same MCP not win all by elections in 2017? have you forget that you are living a house which was built by Kamuzu banda /MCP are you not ashamed how you have messed up this country ????? can’t you see your self the vote of no confidence in your administration that’s why Malawian have started to investigate on their own cases of corruption instead of ACB which you have paralyzed just to save your friends and wife. Lets wait and see come 2019 sir

  9. This country does not belong to you, what belongs to you is thievery. You don’t have the capacity to dictate which party to rule Malawi come 2019. That capacity belongs to Malawians themselves. What has your government done to Malawians apart from stealing from them with yourself on the forefront? Stop making rotten statements if you want people to respect you if you deserve any respect.

  10. Tikukumvetsani APM. Mwachitadi zotheka kuti mcp idzalephere.
    1. Kalembera wa mavoti sakuyenda bwino ku central region.
    2. Mwamuuzitsa Jane Ansah kuti asalore to reopen voters registration centres mu phase one ( Dedza, Salima )
    3. Jane Ansah is blind folding amalawi powonetsa ngati kuti akukhutira ndi ma percentage omwe alembetsa chaka chino yet they are lower than a previous election of 2014 despite increase in our population figures.

  11. This duddy is confirming what his vice said that they can play and stop someone from winning. mind you, you can fool people at once but not always. Game changer Malawi for all is what we want. my vote is MCP.

  12. The last time I checked he was not a god to make such a declaration. Looks like akulambula pofera ameneyu

  13. A Bwana President…..the MCP that murdered people is not this one….it is the old one which you run away from and we chased out of government while you were in exile with a Green card! By the way those murders happened more than 24 years ago! But for you and DPP , your crimes are still fresh! The murders of Njauju, Chasowa and the 21 people during the July 2011 massacre! Now to add ice on the cake…the 145Million Kwacha from Mr Karim!! If at all there is a person or party NOT to rule this country again then its you and the DPP! You and the DPP are the most tragic accident to have happened to Malawi!!! Shameless thieves and murderers, mwasowa chonena eti?

  14. Look, who is talking? Njaunju and Chasowa were murdered during the DPP era…..it appears we have murderers for rulers as it is at the moment. Bwana , i have a simple question? What did you do with the 145 Million Kwacha?

  15. Point of correction Mr accidental president,its not about you but votes of Malawians,you only have one vote which is obviously for your self
    Malawians will vote and its either MCP or UTM …beat it.

  16. ONLY FELLOW TRIBESMEN CAN VOTE FOR AN 80 YEARS OLD PRESIDENT,NOT ONLY OLD BUT ALSO VERY CORRUPT,VERY NEPOSTIC, TOO LOMWELIZED.

    MALAWIANS FROM CHTIPA TO NSANJE HAVE NOT FORGOTTEN THAT DPP MURDERED CHASOWA AND THE ACB DIRECTOR OF ADMINISTRATION.MWANYENYEDWA INU, KHALANI CHETE! KUYIWALA MSANGA BWANJI, MWAKALAMBADI INU A PITALA ETI?

  17. If I could comment I would advise APM to leave now and think about ana ake chifukwa it will not look good akazaluza mu 2019
    retire now than kuzanyozeka mtsogolomu. Personally APM is a well cultured person and well behaving man koma ndalezi
    zikudetsani, zitayeni, Pezani njira

  18. Idiot thinking by someone so called empty president…I was a dpp diehard but aaaahhhh koma apa pokha dpp yapala ….let us try abusawo

  19. Do we expect you to allow? We want to replace you and your Vice president. You guys are buddies; you think alike. When people seek change nothing will stop them, but not DPP(1) again and not DPP(2) again oh! sorry UTM.

  20. Magazi Crocodile Party KKKKKKKKKKKK 21 may 2019 nyimbo yake idzakhala Yona, Yona, Yona! Yona, Yona mwana wamasiye yona kwake ndikulira, yona KKKKKK

  21. Inu tamusiya uyu akuphupha mchilungamo watisaukitsa mokwana…ife tidzavotera mcp yomweyo yakuphayo osatiso enawa angosintha utoto wasaruwu akuti a utm zawo mzimodzi adziwa liti kuti azaowa ndi akuba?chosecho ankakakamila kuti ayimire u President kodi zidakatheka mawu woti dpp ndiyakuba akadatuluka???? Amalawi nthawi yopusitsana inatha anthuwa atidoda mokwana

  22. Chilima is indeed a liar. he can never create 1m jobs. if he means it can he start in his private life to start his company and employ just 100 people. I am told he runs a bottlestore in Lilongwe. A whole president running a beerhall business KKK

    1. Mukumva kuwawa, it s better to run a bottle than to steal, the who president kulandila ziphuphu za K145million. By the, do you know how to count to 1 million

  23. Me too over my dead brain this crocodile party will never cone back. My prayer is God or Allah never allow this crocodile party to come back. We suffered a lot and many of us are lucky by God’s Grace that we are alive. We will never forget all what we went through

  24. Join the discussion…KkKkkkkkkkkkk IDIOT munthalika, can you explain how do you know that MCP won’t win? Or that’s what your EX HULE ANSA of ( MEC) told you? if you can’t respect other party’s how do you expect them to respect you? we know you and Chilima make aplan to over power MCP. by using DPP AND UTM, but thatwill never gonna work GOD IS NOT A HUMAN, he the almighty one is not for Peteror Chilima only, come 2019 MCP BOMA!!!! VOTE MALAWI CONGRESS PARTY TO REBOOT THE SYSTEM, BETTER MALAWI FOR ALL, GOD BLESS MALAWI.

  25. Yes MCP a party of murders. Bakili made false starts in corruption but Bingu refined the art of corruption Ndata palace is a piece of wealth amassed with underhand means, come 20 July 2011 Bingu was head on with demonstrations in all cities killing more than twenty children women and men. The definition of a murderer across the fifty four years of our independence has to meet its meaning when APM loosely places a sticker on MCP as murderers Bingu was evil and steeped in dictatorship. Today a murderer has surfaced in the DPP by siphoning funds from the government coffers which could have been channelled towards the treatment of our poor patients in the drug dry health facilities APM look into the mirror truth will out

  26. He is dying soon anyways, so yeah, MCP will rule. The guy is a century old does he think he will live forever?

  27. Is Mr president confirming what SKC said about rigging elections or its expression of fear because MCP will surely arrest him. We are counting down to a day of tears in dpp. Both UTM or MCP will arrest you.

    Pray that you die before elections

  28. I thought MBC was the national independent broadcaster and not the property of the DPP government. Can other political parties also use it to campaign for election in 2019? Also does APM think that the MCP is the same party that ruled under Dr Banda without any change over the years since multiparty democracy came to Malawi? He knows it has changed and that it is a credible threat to the re-election of the DPP, otherwise why the scare tactics? If he wishes to defeat the MCP he needs to attack their policies and not hark back to what took place more than twenty years ago under Dr Banda. On the other hand, if he has nothing better to offer the electorate than what the MCP have, then he should be ready to accept defeat.

  29. Ili ndiye bodza. Is it you who is going to vote to stop MCP from winning elections? He has in his party people who supported MCP in the 1970s up to some few years ago. Are these now good people just because they are DPP? Dausi was a close aid of Kamuzu and some were part of the feared MYP. Are all these people now ok because they are in DPP? My foot. Some of us who support MCP are doing so because we are tired of your leadership. You are very tribalistic and very corrupt to the teeth. Mark my words 2019 you are going back to the USA you will renew your green card. Do not make some of us angry. We are tired of you. If people like Kaliyati and Masangwi can be tired of you; what more with us who are not Lhomwes? Please spare us the nosense.

  30. Just thinking aloud, is it not interesting to note that there are three party presidents in DPP led administration
    1. Peter Mutharika (DPP)
    2. Saulosi Chilima (UTM)
    3 Atupele Muluzi (UDF)

    1. Great thoughts. They are same. depending on same funders. only supported by former moderate DPP guts from lilongwe n mzuzu

  31. Alamu Pumbwa Mwakalamba inu. Mwayamba kunjanja mutalavula K145 million itathina pakhosi. Bingu alone killed 20 people in July 2011. What authority do you have not to allow MCP to rule? Bakili lamented about matchonanu and now it’s Callista. At least Robin Hood was better because he stole from the rich and gave it to the poor. Alamu Pumbwa Mwakula is stealing from the poor and keeping it with him and Chisale. You are a very bad person who does not deserve to lead Malawians. God will soon punish you. God akunyenyanyenya. God punished Chitsulo cha Njanji.

  32. Can you tell us who is a murder in MCP? What Malawians know to day is that you are Robin Hood, Prince of thieves. You claim that UTM is insulting you, are you not insulting MCP by calling it a party of murders. Why are you afraid of MCP so much. You are confident that you will not allow MCP to rule again because you know that you are going to rig (steal) the votes as you did in 2014. The good thing is that Chilima who is your Vice has told the nation what you plan to do, Mr Robin Hood.

  33. mcp NDIYAMUTHALIKA KAPENA YA AMALAWI? NDIYE TIILORE AKUBAWA ALAMULIREBE? NOOOO OVER MY DEAD BODY.

  34. Wishful thinking Mr President, with all these billions your government is stealing from us we won’t allow that to continue. The MCP you are talking about didn’t kill Njauju and Chasowa and the new MCP is comprised of new blood while the old blood is in your party, Dausi, Hertherwick Ntaba etc. Thanks to VP for helping MCP to win.

  35. MCP izapangisa ADMARC kugula chimanga pa nthawi yake nkumathandiza a Malawi nkukhala ndi mtsika odalilika osati zanuzi zomauza ADMARC kuyamba kugula chimanga mu August ma vendor atawabera kale a Malawi.shame on you DPP…CHIPANI cha ma k145,000,000.00 ndi fuel gate.

  36. I believe that God controls everything including governments. I get scared when people start producing statements like they are God themselves. If Peter Muthalika do not allow but God allows, what will happen? Be careful with your speech Mr President. Continue being a politician but still remember everything is in the hands of God.

  37. Chakwera ndi Boma inuyu mwakanika ndipo musataye nthawi ndikulubwalubwa apa. Your government is best known for stealing nothing else

  38. amwene inu simulungu mesa ndinu pitala mutharika. . you are not GOD. think before you speak. akuzungulilidwa ndi mbuli iwenso umakhala mbuli

  39. Muthalika ngati ukumva udzachita manyazi chaka cha mawa, MCP itawina, musadzinamize kuti kubwera kwa Chilima mu ndale ndi gulu lake la UTM ndiye kuti MCP yatha mudzakhumudwa mukulira mayiwawe pa 21may 2019. Chimene aMalawi akudziwa mchakuti nonse a DPP ndi UTM ndinu mbava ndipo sitikukufunani mwawononga dziko lino kwakwana. Ndani amene angavotele mbava yakuba 145 000 000. 00. Mbava yopanda manyazi iwe, uziona chaka cha mawa masiku athela ku chitseko.

  40. So whose party was it which insulted Patricia Kaliati? Do you people think at all? Anyway your time is up. Chilima is going to win hands down!

  41. Bingu and Peter Mutharika ndi madolo.They are history makers and record breakers.they are the only brothers in Africa who were elected as presidents.Atumbuka sadzalamulila dziko lino olo u vice president sadzakhala

    1. uku ndiye kuganiza mopusa.in stead of focusing on the country as a whole you are still tribalistic,nyapapi

    2. Chitsiru ndi Bakili Muluzi kutibwertsera ma tchona kudzaononga dziko la Malawi pano tikuvutika chifukwa cha Bakili Galu wa munthu pano wagulitsanso ka Chipani kake, katheratu ngat makatani. m.c.p ndiye chipani chokhazikika kuno ku Malawi osati zinazi mbola UTM ndiye mbava zokhazokhazo chifukwa cha ma udindo ayamba kuyalutsana ones ndi amodzi agalu enieni

      1. Chipani Cha EMUSIPI ndi achewa a Chitawira chapakati Basi. Atumbuka, aLhomwe, aMang’anja, aYao ndi aSena alive nacho ntchito Mitundu ndachulayi ikudziwa bwino za Johansson za mchewa kapena out in mchiwere kapena mchipeta.
