Mutharika says he will ensure DPP bounces back to power
Former president Peter Mutharika has recovered from the loss shock he suffered since he lost the presidential election to president Dr. Lazarus Chakwera last month and says he will ensure that the Democratic Progressive Party (DPP) bounces back into power in 2025.

Mutharika has snce urged DPP supporters to be strong, vigilant, united and principled to bring back the DPP into power.
The former president made the remarks through his official Facebook page after having an audience with DPP leadership from the Eastern region including parliamentarians as well as some members of the DPP politiburo.
The leaders were led by DPP vice president for eastern region Bright Msaka and took place at Mutharika’s retirement Villas in Mangochi.
“Malawians have already seen that their much touted change has not brought them the change they were looking for,” he says.
The former president said he will never leave DPP and supporters although he lost the election.
“Come next election, DPP will be bouncing back in government and I will render all my support to make sure this is achieved as we did between 2012 to 2014,” wrote Mutharika.
He added that Tonse Alliance – which has just been in power for one month – has failed to bring change it preached during the campaign period.
“I therefore call upon all DPP supporters to remain strong and vigilant, united and principled so that we achieve this together,” Mutharika said in the post.
Mjutharika, 80, lost the elections to President Lazarus Chakwera, 65, wo won a decisive 59% of the vote, the first time an incumbent president in Africa was beaten by the opposition after a court-ordered rerun.
Judges in February overturned the result of the May 2019 election, won by Mutharika, citing evidence of irregularities.
Mutharika’s meeting with the party leadership in the eastern region including comes barely a week after the regional governor for the eastern region Julius Paipi defected to UTM.
The former president has not commented on the arrest of some DPP and government officials from the former government including his aide, Norman Chisale.

Looking at the picture on this article, I doubt if he is able to write on a facebook page.
IN WHICH COUNTRY WILL THE DPP BOUNCE BACK IN 2025, BECAUSE THERE IS NO MENTION HERE, IF IT IS IN MALAWI UNDER WHICH LEADER BECAUSE I SEE NONE.
Kodi anthu mukulongolola.kuyankha zoti Mutharika adzutsa DPP? Tamusiyenj uyu. Mukumgoweramira chitanda apa. 2025 akazafika azakhala akuyanikidwa pa dzuwa aunt Getu atapeza kena koti kaziwachosa stress
Indeed this Tonse government is failing
Only development am seeing from Tonse government is just arresting people.
You are not even supposed to be in Mangochi.
you should be rotting in Jail with your cronies and fellow lhomwe people.
You are incompetent, thief, nepotistic dumb president. no wonder you lost power to the man of God
Malawians do not want you.
Right!
He must answer the cement scandal first. He knew about it, he was selling the duty free cement through Chunara and then sharing the proceeds
Bwana Muthalika ndi munthu wosaganiza. A Chakwera apereka olive branch kuti ali olorera ku makambirana zinthu zokweza dziko, pamene aMuthalika akuumiria kukanuka?!! eishhhhii . The question is, inuyo ma Cadet ngati muli oganiza muku waona bwanji abwana anuwo? kapena nanunso mumaganiza ngati bwana wanuyo( bakha thinking)?
whats wrong with apm? did chakwera accepted apm’s olive branch when extended to him? ndiye wapusa bwanji apm kuti amvere lazaro olive branch yakeyo? nyekhwe yanu imeneyo
“Nanananaaaa nanananaaaa hey hey good bye!”
“Your fired !”
Like what once an old man Vince Mcmahon use to say.

Only Jesus resurrected and you will not APM. Forget about it. Just be think of building a mausoleum with the stolen cement just like your brother did. Build your statue as well and plant it where you are living.
But does APM know that his bodyguard is arrested for looting taxpayers money? paja akuluwa amangogona mu offesi such that we are witnessing so much rot under his administration. Could Mr. Dausi please update your sleeping man !
2014 DPP did not win the election.Its actually PP that won.DPP rigged with the aid of Harry Kanjewe who was awarded a luxury job at admarc and now PS at foreign affairs.He is now filthy rich.If you doubt challenge me.
You assholes thinks Malawians are MAD that you can take advantage of them anytime? the way your government was looting this country who is very foolish to vote for you again? your DPP will get some votes yes because we still have alot of foolish people in this country, but those votes will not be enough to get you back in government. without kubela there is no way DPP can win elections, even in 2014 simunawine…
Nkhuku kapena Titi mbuzi ya former president
Ben Phiri didn’t lie awa ndi a Maliseche ndithu
God forbid, Malawi doesn’t want Peter Al Capone Mutharika again. This mafia and moronic Gangster & his thugs have tormented and impoverished us for long
kikikikiki
Peter Munthalika,ukufuna kudzatiberaso.Enough is enough.Ngati mbava zimawataya magalimoto wopuma mmisewu, umboni ukuchita kuwonetsa wokha.Kut DPP ndi mbava zomwe zimawabera sapotazi awo omwe.Simungazawine unless you use tippex,without tippex simungawine.
MCP UNLIKE PP WHICH WAS EASILY OUSTED FROM POWER BY DPP HAS A STRONG POLITICAL BASE AND WILL BE EVEN MUCH STRONGER IN 2025. CHAKWERA COMES FROM A DISTRICT WITH 22 CONSTITUENCIES AND OVER 600,000 START UP VOTES.BESIDES HE IS MARRIED FROM RUMPHI HENCE WILL BE A DARLING OF THE NORTHERN REGION VOTERS IN HIS RULE.ALREADY UNLIKE DURING MUTHALIKA SIX YEARS RULE, SOME POWERFUL POSITIONS SUCH AS RBM GOVERNOR , MRA BOARD CHAIR AMONGST OTHERS HAVE STRATEGICALLY GONE TO THE NORTH.
Change is here already! Thieves being smoked out! You and Getrude are next!!!!!!!
Muthalika is stupid by nature amalawi nanuso why kuvotera moya mbala yachabe chabe imakolopa zimbuzi ku america kuzayipasa ilamule dziko zofuna phwando each department amangidwe ameneyu ndimkazi wake yemwe
Bounce back from the dead????
If the murder party MCP has bounced back into government, what can stop a decent party like DPP from entering Government? Inu a MCP mukunyadira chisankho chogula kukhothichi? If it were not for the corrupt regime-change judges do you think MCP would make it to state House?
We in the mighty DPP are getting back our government in 2025 and get ready for this.
Thug iwe anavota ndi a Malawi over 2 million, ma Judge anangolamula pakhale chilungamo chifukwa manawabela a Malawi. This time 2025 you will not be able to steal votes ku lower Shire
Let’s hope those who created this facebook account for our former head of state are informing him about the nonsense they are writing on his behalf. I doubt if the guy even reads what his boys are writing in his name.
Ok
I would remind APM that he is yet to die following his several pronouncements that only over his dead body would he allowed MCP’s Chakwera to rule this country. It’s now almost a month since Chakwera was sworn in as Malawi President and APM is still sipping whisky.
APM was not so much President as he was head of a criminal enterprise. The amount of stealing and money laundering that took place during his six years is staggering. The stories coming out of MRA (cement-gate), MERA, ESCOM, MACRA, AHL, ADMARC and many more yet to be uncovered paint a picture of a DPP “system” that was involved in unbridled plunder of public resources.
I hope that someone somewhere is meticulously following up on all these issues, and ensuring that the people involved are brought to book. It is only when all this is done when it can become a deterrent to current and future public officers not to plunder public resources at will…
Mutharika what nonsense are you uttering. Nothing like an old fool in your case nothing like a mumbling old fool. Being a learned man, and a Professor at a university yet you showed not an ounce of compassion for the poor and suffering in our country. You dog, what is the matter with you. Stealing billions whilst our people suffered. Enriching yourself, Mulli and your fertiliser and pharmaceuticals suppliers. You dog.
I used to respect this man but realized mochedwa kuti ndi idiot or chitsiru. I have respect for old people and think that they are wise having gone through a lot in life but APM is just a fool. He let his cronies steal money at will. He never listen to anyone. He never listen when we called for the resignation of Jane Ansah and other. He never listened to Parliament. He did not assent to bills. You expected to come back. How old are you? You are already on a one way street and there will be no turning back to dpp. You only favored your tribe and you are giving problems to Tonse Alliance. Any when rolling a rock everything gets crushed by it. We will not care whether it is you or your insipid wife. You are a thief. You were not duly elected. Jane Ansah made you president. He despised the judiciary. You despised Malawians and said utinyenyanyenyenya. Tinakunyenya zenizeni pa 23 June 2020. Ndirande stone you and kunyenya started from there.
Hahahaha! You will be definitely rendering your support in 2025 from your grave.
Mudzakhala mutamwalira ndi Corona virus by that time, chifukwa nthendayi ikupha nkhalamba, and l don’t see how and why it would spare you.
Melvin, Melvin. Ndiwe mfiti yopemphera. You do not have a human feeling but an animal one. Life is from God and he is the only one who can take it out
Haha, John, don’t shoot the messenger.
Little did you know that I am just Prophetic, and zonse zonse zonse, ndikutitu zonse zomwe ndimanena, zimachitika.
Mark those words.
Koma umfiti okhawo, ngakhale ndimakhala ku Mocambique, ayi ndithu, sindiudziwa.
I appreciate your judgement though, as am aware that you are entitled to your opinion.
No hard feelings, koma ndithu mawu omwe ndimanena dzulo apherezera masiku akudzawa.
and so the chief thief has spoken. Get out bakha iwe.
Mr Mutharika, have you been told that MCP is now ruling Malawi? Have been told that you are in Mangochi and not Kamuzu Palace? You destroyed your tribe the lomwes, never will you seen another lomwe becoming the president. You messed up the tribe and the country. All tribes united to get ride of you and your tribe. You cant come back. You are in minority. All tribes united . Useless lawyer
Ma Cadet mwabisala kuti? Tiyankhuleni pa nkhani yikukambidwayi. Muli ku Maula kapena?
Day dreaming.Just rest
You failed to bring change in your 6year tenure how do you expect Tonse Alliance to change things in a month honestly?
mumvereniko chisoni bakhayi kuganiza kumamuvuta olo kulakhula kumamuvuta reason,, mkamwa mwake mulibiletu olo ndi dzino limodzi hence poor thinking as well as poor mouthed talk.
Resign Madala, let the Youth took over the activities and decisions of the party, with all these corrupt revelations who would want to be ruled by DPP again?? Stop dreaming old man, it will not happen in the foreseeable future..
We dont want you back sleeping president or any of yout corrupt colleagues. Rest in pieces!
Oops! mulipo agogo? Tonse alliance has done a lot in one month than you idiot did during your entire rule. Timanga nonse mbava kumalizira iwe chinkhalamba, hence forget about getting back into power. Count yourself lucky if your party will still be in existence come 2025.
People of Malawi @ 86 in 2025 this Prince of thieves is either going to ruin Malawi again or he will be serving a ten year jail sentence for cement gate. Which of these two scenarios is highly more probable than the other?
Akhala ali moyo? Ndakayika makamaka za ma albinozi ndithu ena nyekhwethe akumana nayo.
Bwanawe DPP sizabwereranso Malawians ake ati tinatopa nanu bigtime simumvera inu ndipo who can lead dpp now sorry Pitala just rest where you are. By the way ma monitor apezekapo angati?
You are allowed to dream.With the way you stole, you will not be allowed back
Expecting change in less than a month???? Wow
KKKKKKK…..KOMA AGOGO AWA.
LHOMWE REPUBLIC IS GONE FOR GOOD MBUZI INU MEEEE
Arrest the guy plse! Milandu ili kale konko ku police ko. Files are just gathering dust there.
Viola APM
Mutharika coming back into power again! My foot. Dreaming is free. Malawians, we are yet to see what DPP did while in Government, remember that you ousted Joyce Banda from power in 2014 through rigging, pano sizidzatheka. Electoral laws will be changing. Your Jezebel Jane Ansah will never be the MEC Chair again. So, forget about coming back to power again.
Gogo Muthalika; just rest in peace you misarably failed Malawians during your term of Office. How could you have tolerated Non Employees of Escom to be drawing Fuel at the company? how could did you allowed cadets to be using government vehicle and yet they were not employees?. so in terms of failure, you are the biggest failure and you deserve the failing presidents award
You made DPP to be a Southern Region Party hence it will be difficult for you to win under 50% + 1 and you have destroyed the country through impunity and corruption.
You will have plenty of free time to plan your Campaign Strategy at Camp Maula together with Getu, Paulosi and Tadikira!
Mutharika suffers from Dementia, Tonse in power one month still finding ways DPP looted Billions. Shame Mutharika wishes not to run again as President. Change is coming to Malawi once all the looters are forced to return the money or their properties are seized becsuse of unexplained wealth.
he laso told us that as long as he is alive mcp will never win, so not sure he can be trusted, he will probably be in jail over the next election
Yes it will return for sure but it will return with Chilima. We know in 2025 Chilima will be up agains chakwera because the constitution won’t allow him as vice president again. DPP will be tired of being in opposition. 50 plus 1 requires alliances so the southern vote is a huge chunk. DPP will form an alliance with skc The day that MCP and the southern vote form an alliance, my fellow Malawians, it is over for democracy in Malawi
DPP will Never come back to rule Malawi again. According to the Prophecies of Men of God, Dr Chakwera will rule Malawi for two terms ie. that’s 10 years.
Then they said also that, after Dr Chakwera, Dr Chilima will be introduced and supported by Chakwera to be the next President of Malawi in 2030.
After Dr Chilima, then Mdzukulu wa The Late Dr Kamuzu Banda from Kasungu will rule Malawi.
There is No mention of DPP ruling Malawi again. In fact, they predicted that, the loss of DPP in 2020 marks the End of DPP as a Party.
From now onwards, many people will be Dumping DPP to join MCP or UTM or other new parties that will be coming soon.
Inu one can only be vice for 2 terms. It’s the end of the line for chilima. He has to be the next president. Chakwera is a one term president bas
Which constitution is that
Kasim educate yourself go and read chapter VIII The executive in the constitution. President and VP only have 2 terms so indeed Chakwera has to surrender to Saulos. If not they go their separate ways.
That will never happen, he said the same thing to Callista the time he was burying his brother late Bingu, MHSRIP but he didn’t keep his word. What will make him keep his word this time around?
This stinking old man is dreaming, he failed to uplift the lives of Malawians in six years and he is expecting the New government to do everything in one month, plz Peter just go back to u r America, otherwise we will arrest u for u r stinking corruption, mbuzi. Kulankhula ngati wabvumata madzi nkamwa, gondwa iwe, SHETWANI MURUDANI
Recovered? Hell, no!! This sonnomabitch is still in the first stage of grief. He doesn’t seem to appreciate what our wonderful courts will do to him.
kodi mmesa unkati, ” as long as I am alive, MCP will never rule this country again.”
and when you went to present you papers for the elections at Mt Soche hotel, you said, “I and Atupele will win this election. I repeat we will win this election.”
This is enough proof kuti zonena za agogowa sungazikhulupilire.
if he was a prophet, he qualify for the title “false prophet.”
Its possible but not with you or any of your stooges. the party needs fresh look and fresh personnel.tonse alliance its going to have tough times ahead due to covid 19.if not careful ,they may be booted out of govt in 2025.i dont expect to see people like chaponda,mpinganjira,henry mussa,mphepo,mchacha ,mwanamveka,dausi in forefront of the party.its time for them to leave scene.mutharika and his greedy wife should also stop treating the party as family estate.
My foot. Tonse Alliance will be booted out because of Covid 19. Hahaha , we are all in this situation together. You think DPP will take power from Tonse Alliance because of Covid. Mbuli.
APM himself failed to bring change in six years. And he expects the Tonse Alliance Government to bring change in a month? This octogenarian is really mad. We made a very serious blunder to give him the cup of authority.
Bouncing back is possible. The problem is the motive – will it be to get back to some unfinished business of looting? May God protect the nation.
Awadi akalamba sure. Alephere kumaliza nyumba 6 yrs ndiye akuti Tonse yalephera in 3 weeks? Ndipo anthuwa anangobwera kuzakulandirani anganga monga mlemdo oti wangofika mmudzi , musazipusitse. Mwamuonako George Nayeja Nankhumwa uja amakunamizani kuti muzikalima namdolo limodzi? Iye walowa za Covid-19 azidya ma allowance. Akuyendera anthu ku ndende inu wakuiwalani
Ndi covid tizakhala tiripo?
Encourage the old man to leave politics humbly. The damage inflicted on people is suicidal to think Malawians will go back to (Egypt).Don’t fool him the tide will be unprecedented. ALAMU PUMANI MWAKULA.
Its impossible for them to return into power. In 2014 they rigged the elections. The voting system in 2025 will be much stronger than 2020. I do not see DPP wininng. We do ask Nyasatimes to rewrite this article that time. People shall recall what was written here.
I love courageous guys. And those that dream in colour! [Even in the face of warrants of arrest ]
Over my dead body! You will NEVER rule again! Mbava inu, nkhorokoro
Tonse alliance is as bad as you sir and since you are no longer in power I would your party was much more inclusive and tolerant than this gawa undi leadership
Will Mutharika still be alive in 2025? The old man is DEAD already. Everyone involved in stealing taxes will be in jail by then. DPP is DEAD.
Why bounce back to power in 2025? Is it for the sake of looting or for the sake of developing the country? Tonse Alliance must make sure this due stops dreaming. He has no concern for the welfare of this country except his party and tribe.
He is saying Tonse Govt has failed to fullfil what they promised really? This old madala is going to rot in jail no mercy. He has forgotten that 6 years we never seen Singapore like development. What we have seen is tsunami of plunder of tax payers money shame!!! Then you really do not know Laz wait. madala
Mbava izi akazibvoterenso ndani? Malawians are done with this evil satanic demonic party. Anthu oipa osakonda dziko lawo. Tiuzeni za cement kaye
…. and kick APM out of Chikoko Bay to finish him off.
The dozy former president who has been sleeping for 6 years.
So far it is not looking good for your step-son and second wife Gertrude. Let us hope your body will withstand their absence in your life. All maybe you will marry a third wife?
He will marry a yoa woman from Bakili’s village so he can enjoy his old age. Gertrude is too old for the old age pensioner.
What’s wrong with this clown Mutharika? Mutharika you have received hundreds of millions of dollars in bribes for corruptly awarding contracts for fertilizer and pharmaceuticals. You have even conspired with Indians and Mulli for government to award them huge sums for dubious claims they made against our government. Your brother Bingu and you have sucked our country dry, and yet you dream of coming back? Only place you will be going to is prison.
I don’t see DPP and UDF coming back, 2025 you will be 85 then saying you will ensure DPP coming back to power that is a blue lie madala tazingochedzani ndi ma great grand children.
Ndizotheka; tonse alliance is already confused; they cant decide who to feature a candidate in Mangochi by-election. one party will die. i dont think UTM is ready to die as an infant.
Tonse Alliance is not a party my friend, individual parties will decide who their candidates will be. The Alliance is at the level of the presidency only
Wabodza iwe mbuyako amati I will make Malawi like Singapore 2014 campaign 2020 he changed the tune a Will make malawi like America mmalo moti mudzilapa bodza basi
Chipwaza iwe ingatiuze chani
Bwana Wapansi do u agree with this Clueless leader? He must ask a Chair( Muluzi) first, then he will know Malawians. The good thing is by the year, 2025 , he will b 85 years old and his adviser (Muluzi) will also b fucked, so both of them will b stinking of old age, so he is indeed day dreaming, don’t worry about him, DPP/UDF RIP, the father’s of corrupters, go to hell.
Ndizotheka ziti maka maka? Kuti Tonse just a month has failed? Kikkkkk DPP failed in 6 years and you are saying a month? Kodi kanundu amaononga anthu chonchi eti? You will never and never ever come back in power, mark the date!
Yes, DPP just needs to put its house in order. It will surely bounce back. The so called Tonse Alliance will fall apart very shortly as evidenced by the cracks that are already developing. It is apparent that the Alliance is only favouring MCP. If UTM is not careful it will surely be swallowed whole and vanish. All those promises are now proving to be a white elephant. Look at the Universal Fertiliser Subsidy, the tune is now changing. They are saying only 3 million people will benefit, the much talked about 1 million jobs, we are now told that Companies and parastatals should come in to disclose the vacancies they have as if the government has the mandate to dictate what is happening in the private sector. Now The Tonse Alliance is promoting DPP’s agenda of equipping the youth with skills, rekindling memories of Community Technical Colleges which were spearheaded by DPP. Their U-Turn on K100,000 Tax free threshold for workers has just added salt to the wounds of the already suffering workers. The firing of all people from the Southern Region will also prove costly to the Alliance. Lastly, the only thing these people have achieved is to arrest members of the DPP on trumped up charges. Mudyeretu, in 2025 you will be shown an exit door.
Chilima alimomo akutinji Za mfundo imene ankanena Kuti adzatsitsa fertilizer pa 4, 495 sinabwere ndi mcp but UTM ikutipo bwanji? Zosemphana mu next four years Ngati zingadzachitike nzotheka kwambirinso Lazarus chakwera will need his last second term whilst chilima will also wants to take Over. Komabe Ngati pangakhale kusakwanilitsa mfundo zimene anatilonjeza pa campaign we will not point at Lazarus chakwera only as a president rather the tonse alliance. Coz they are running the government developments together. DPP be waiting Pali UTM apa campaign yawo ili ndi mfundo Za heavy Ali ndi chikoka .
Ngati mwaledzera thobwa osangosiya ku komenta bwanji?
Gogo uyu is really day dreaming. DPP retuning into power in the next election! Over my dead body! God forbid! Just keep strategizing on how to face the cement gate charges and other theft charges you and your team of thieves committed! Remember the albino case is waiting! Kaya ine ndangodutsamo! Let me just remind you that ‘ Nyekhwe is real’ Incase you have forgotten
KOma uyunso! Nkhani zonse zikucitikazi I don`t think you will be around. But, keep dreaming!
Useless speaches,non starter,who will vote for you with your rampunt stealing?eish
Some of us feel betrayed by Chakwera and Chilima. They told lies. Even going as low as appointing chibale cabinet? Retreating on Universal Subsidy. Chakwera having his own son-in-low as Press Officer. TONSE yatiyenjeza.
Never say never for people are keen comparing what they voted out with what they voted in.
Tonse alliance has failed decimally and I had wasted my vote. Let the DPP come in and correct the mess. Tonse alliance is a family party
Amdala, wake up! You were the worst president Malawi has ever had in all aspects. 6 years of your leadership has been bad for most Malawian. See you are comparing six years of your rule against one month of tonse alliance.
Munthu walephera kumanga nyumba yako in 6 years, how can you blame others in just one month of inheriting the dilapidated govt you left in a mess? Mwasiya Ngongole zambiri ndi a Mota-Engil, is this how you were gonna raise this country to the status of Singapore….kkkkkk
U will c and this is the scenario to come.Tonse Alliance will be busy fighting covid19 instead of embanking on development projects,thats how the downfall will come in.
