2 MPs withdraw support for DPP: Duo are Mpinganjira sons
Main opposition Democratic Progressive Party (DPP) has suffered a political setback after two legislators announced that they have withdrawn their support for the party both inside and outside parliament.
Blantyre City Central MP Chipiliro Mpinganjira and his Chiradzulu North sibling, Patrick Mpinganjira Matola, cite the hostile stance by party vice president Kondwani Nankhumwa on their father Brown Mpinganjira as a reason for their decision.
Since it lost last June’s fresh presidential poll, the DPP has been riddled with endless wrangles and struggle for power to lead the party.
For instance, Nankhumwa is at loggerheads with the party’s leadership over his position as Leader of Opposition in Parliament as well as his status as party vice president for the south.
He has further sued some party officials including Mpinganjira for defamation following claims that he hired thugs to beat the latter up at a recent media briefing.
Chipiliro Mpinganjira said that unless Nankhumwa officially ceases to be Leader of Opposition and the party’s second in command in the south, he and his brother will not be part of the DPP.
There was no immediate comment from Nankhumwa on the matter.

This party died with Bingu, what is left is pure madeya, riff raff and chaff.
Usiku shawana….. Mbuzi ZA wanthu
Thank you for being catalysts for the demise of dpp. You will help make the devils party die faster.
You haven’t done enough guys, pull your father the confusionst along with you and leave DPP alone.
My advise to Mpinganjira kids: you are grown up now. Think about your immediate families. Let your father deal with his demons. You future is in DPP not in Nankhumwa or your father. Stop being silly and foolish cry babies. Remember each of u are unique and different brands. Let your unique brands shine.
What are they looking for
Miss DPP, miss that old man’s leadership, let’s support who support APM
These boys are political fools. Why don’t they tell their clueless father to stop confusing dp They must know that they can not force anyone to like their father. There are others who will support the DPP in and outside partly.
Nothing new let them go and I don’t see as a story and anjoka ndinjoka zomwe
Who would support any person that is clearly against your own parents.
Congratulations Chipi and Pat for your moral decision.
Mako ndi mako usamuone kuchepa mwendo.
