Atupele urges DPP-UDF supporters to wait for official final Malawi election results: ‘Reported votes not correct’
With unofficial results suggesting a win for opposition leader Lazarus Chakwera in a re-run of a Malawi’s presidential polls, President Peter Mutharika’s running mate Atupele Muluzi has said DPP-UDF supporters should wait for the final official tally by Malawi Electoral Commission (MEC), claiming results in public domain are not correct.
Atupele said on Friday there were “massive irregularities” noted in the elections and that the true reflection on the will of the people will come from MEC legalised declared results.
He urged DPP and UDF supporters to disregard results published on social media and wait for an official announcement from MEC.
Atupele said MEC is the only institution legally mandated to announce a winner of any national election; hence, all announcements from other stakeholders are irrelevant.
His comments comes after President Mutharika accused the opposition of inciting violence where DPP monitors were beaten and hacked a day before the election after isolated incidents that the police and Malawi Electoral Commission (MEC) said had not affected the election.
Atupele said they will press for “real results”.
Analysts suggest President Mutharika may be preparing to challenge the outcome in case he loses.
“I think he is preparing the political, maybe the legal ground, for losing,” Peter Fabricius of the Pretoria-based Institute for Security Studies said.
Editor-in-Chief of Malawi media giant Times Group, George Kasakula, speaking on Times TV at National Tally Centre in Blantyre on Friday said DPP-UDF were “looking for anti-hill where there are none,” saying the refusal to accept the results circulated by private media was “an act of desperation.”
He said: “They should produce an image of acceptance. They should concede that Malawians have punished us.”
But the DPP-UDF alliance claims Malawi Congress Party (MCP) had already printed MEC B6 Forms which were already filled in and were delivered to the centres at night in the absence of DPP monitors.
The B6 Form for reporting to MEC was allegedly swapped in many centres. The version of B6 Form that went to MEC was set to make Chakwera win.
“As a result, in most centres the numbers of actual voters exceeded registered voters,” said Atupele.
He said DPP-UDF will accept only certified results after the Electoral Commission have carried out “their investigations thoroughly and done all the required audits of the electoral materials.”
In a media briefing earlier, MEC chairperson Justice Dr Chifundo Kachale said the commission will be updating the nation on the results at 20 percent intervals.
“The Commission appreciates how important it is to release the final results and we are doing everything possible we can to ensure that this process is concluded in time. However, this will not be done at the expense of legality of the process and quality controls,” said Kachale, a judge of the High Court of Malawi.
“Where the public feels that we are not moving at a faster pace than expected, our appeal is that you should be patient and understand that the Commission does not wish to be faulted on procedure and legality.
“The Commission expects that all stakeholders will appreciate this and stand with us,” he said.
Malawians voted on Tuesday for the country’s president in a rerun of the 2019 election that was nullified by the courts because of vote tampering.

Atupele thinks Jane Ansah is still at MEC to declare Mutharika as the winner. Zavuta basi. Majority has ruled. DPP took Malawians for granted.

”TUPE WILL PŔESS FOR REAL RESULTS!”
Now it is time to go back to China. Mwina this time you can come back as a professor. If it doesn’t work in China, try adadi’s Mombera in Mzimba. It is up and running!
Possibly crying as Flights are restricted to China what will you do Atupele
Didn’t your Daddy say to accept the results?
Atupele is a sore loser crying as is the decent thing to do send congradulations to both Chilima and Chakwera for good fought campaign. Atupele knows DPP spent millions on their own tally center and would have known the great loss DPP experienced soon after polling closed. This was not even close like in 2019 when there was a difference of 150,000 votes. Good he will be fired as Energy Minister and did not win as Vise President as he certainly does not have the people of Malawi at heart but his own selfish needs.
Give us a break, Mister
Still looking for a way to rig, huh???
Akulu, uuuh ine ndakuvulirani ka chisoti. I wish dzikoli linakakhalako ndi anthu ambiri ngati inu.
The problem with kids born with a silver spoon in their mouths, they believe that ever-thing should be served on a silver platter. How will you face the Judiciary now that you called them names????
Your boss has moved out of Sanjika
Game yagona basi, kulira uku. Simunati.
Young Muluzi is frustrated coz he thought he will take the presidency through back door. He was so sure that Muntharikas win mean Muluzi s presidency but that was day dreaming .
Malawians are tired of family dynasty, izi si Ufumu ayi. We have so.many brilliant people in Malawi that if given a chance then they can steer this country into right direction .
Young Muluzi knows for sure that this is the end of UDF as a party coz Chilima with his UTM will swallow the whole eastern region , Mark my word .
You have hit the nail right on the target. This moron muluzi has ever since 2014 lived in fantasy land of day dreaming. This is pure frustration speaking… and nothing else. His stupid plans failed miserably. Apite ku China….and look after the panda bears and finish his degree in animal husbandry.
tupele is trying to please ma dad ake
Umaganiza kuti uyenda moyera kudakhala wachiwiri kwa President wa dziko lino. Ng’ooo. Now you have to begin looking for a job, either to go to companies door by door or apply. Unfortunately, I have no idea what kind of job you may be qualified for and what experience you will take to the job. Your father fooled you so much by not allowing you to work to gain some experience before joining politics. Tizidzakumana ku Ndirande pokagula chisoso Bola anzathu mwalawako kukhala ndi conoy kwa mwezi umodzi. Zimakomatu eti. Zosagwiriria ntchito zapita kwa eni wake omwe akhetsera thukuta kufuna kuphedwa ndi ma cadet otumidwa ndi M’chacha ku Pahlombe. Mulungu watilangira, yebo Chiuta withu, tamuongani chomene.
Welcome Atupele to the real world. Osati kumangomvekedwa thewela nkulunkulu, spoon FED. Ulira utopa, utonthola kenako.
Uyu asayambe kutinyansa apa atisanzitsa mwamva? Infact zikuonetsera poyera kuti it was not in good faith kulolera kukhala pambuyo pa apm. Panali maganizo a upandu ndi bakili kuti alliance yao kungowina, pakhalekhale apm sakanamaliza term yake akanapezeka atupele president.
Nde mwati iyeyu akufuna ayambe kunena zomati our MDF and MPS sanapereke security yabwino ku ma ballot box and ena ankapita kukaikamo ma B6 or whatever you call them? Okhao ndiye usawayambe dala.
So tiyerekeze iwe ndi pitala munene kuti chisankho sichinayende bwino and simunagwirizane ndi ma results amene our MEC alengeza, mupanga bwanji? I doubt tikuonani muli waya!, waya! ndi nkhongo zanuzo kupita ku khoti komwe mukakumane ndi judiciary pitala wakhala akuitukwana posachedwa pomwepayi. Kodi chaka chake ndi chino tikuonerani.
Mau nga omaliza pa atupele ndi oti pa dziko lapansi pali Mulungu and iwe sudzakhalapo president wa Malawi moyo wako wonse.
a malawi anali ndi ulemu.kukusiyani caka ndi mwezi mukulamulabe after the dirty tricks you did jen pitala etc.
paja anati kuvomereza ndi zotsatila inu mwayambanjiso
If I can borrow Gelezeda’s (Atibera, atibera, atibera, atibera, atibera) Atupele, am ashamed on your behalf.
The problem was that you you and your fathers friend thought Malawi is your family! Tiyeni 59 vs 39 tione kuti tithana bwanji. Mwatitola kwambiri, this time just try! you will see the God whom we trust! Mukanakhala ndinu amene mukupambana, bwezi pano eeeeeeeee kulipokopoko a Dausi atayamba kale,,, Lengezani mukuopa chani!!!!!!!!!!!!! That was what happened in 2014! so Mr Muluzi take heart.
Atupele tell me who has a legal standing to dispute the results of an election between a presidential candidate and a running mate? You are one lost soul – i am embarrased for you shame; no wonder you could not qualify with a degree. Did you really think Malawians are stupid to vote for the Dpp-Udf alliance consideraing all the mess the two parties have caused Malawi. By the way, being at the fore front of the campaign does not elevate one to be a presidential candidate; leave it to Muthalika to dispute if he has evidence you have no locus standi so dont waste our time. We want to rebuild Malawi for the betterment for all its people.
Atupele is right. Our supporters MUST not lose hope. Miracles happen. Just like when I was in Chilomoni, I used to sleep in Sanjika Palace! every night! (In my dreams…….or nightmares!)
Hahahaha hahahaha, CHIPWADZA !
I wonder what this bigoted son of a tyrant thinks he is.
These are just crocodile tears, or kicks of a dying horse really, and perhaps some confused and somewhat seeing is believing effects on his mind.
CHIPWADZA, you must understandably be distraught.
I have to say ” great shame on you Atupele” as you have shown us all that you have nothing to do with the plight of the poor masses as you purports, but rather only interested in power other than principle.
You are such an imbecile.
I cannot stop laughing at CHIPWADZA (Atupele Muluzi).
He was fooling himself with the borrowed robe and glory that Arthur Peter Mutharika gave him, which everybody knew it rightfully belonged to Dr. Chilima.
All the security details, the convoys and protocol that belongs to the country’s Vice President ( Tilee Tilee) was given to you during campaign period, and without any shame Atupele blissfully wore Dr. Chilima’s glory.
For your information, that is what the devil does to fools. The devil gives you shiny and glitter things, but all temporary. You store what belonged to Dr. Chilima, and God had returned it to the rightful owner.
You were busy wallowing in Dr. Chilima’s glory, at the same time when your father, Bakili Muluzi was allegedly conspiring to assassinate him.
I know Atupele Muluzi is not a Christian, and cannot possibly read Psalms 75 Verse 7, even when l may make some references from the Bible, he cannot comprehend, and I wouldn’t possibly waste my time preaching to deaf ears.
All l can say to Atupele in simple terms is that all the weapons Mutharika, your father Bakili, and yourself formed against Dr. Chilima, did not and of course will never prosper.
In fact, in as much as you were ill treating Dr. Chilima, (putting your knees on his neck so as he could not breathe, theoretically), you were profusely blessing him, and I know one day you will all kneel down before SCK.
God is for everyone, and it makes me sick when I see some decadent, selfish, spoilt or ‘ana oleledwera pa chilolo’ , in other words ‘ana ozolowera kunyera mnyumba’ like Atupele.
CHIPWADZA, greed is your sin, and your father, Bakili Muluzi is your down fall.
Now that you have lost, l know that you are very confused, but have learnt a lesson or two. You are possibly thinking it is just a nightmare, and will soon wake up to ‘your borrowed glory’. No CHIPWADZA, this is real, and wake up and smell the coffee, and possibly get over it.
CHIPWADZA, unfortunately, this time around, you messed with anthu a Mulungu ( opemphera), and it has been a battle between good ( God) and evil ( the devil).
The winner (God) has taken it all, and you can’t believe it, and comprehend what has happened.
Pepani, zakuvutani. All your dreams are now shuttered and you are possibly thinking what and how you are going to pay back the money you took from the Chinese in China.
Thank God you did not win, just as your father Bakili Muluzi sold all the government businesses and enrich himself with it, this time around you ( Atupele) would have sold us all to China.
Undoubtedly, the Chinese people you made deals with, and are owing them money will at some point want it back.
If you won’t pay them back, they will be harvesting your body parts (adzabwera kudzakudula kumaliseche).
Now that you have lost, and your evil plan of having an influx of Chinese people into Malawi in exchange to laptops you promised Malawians during campaign has crambled.
Pepani, ” Tsoka likalimba amayamba ndi galu wako yemwe kukuluma”. Zakuvuta CHIPWADZA.
Kkkkkkkk koma Melvin mumalemba ndipi mumatha.
Kkkkkk. Thanks Nambuma girl. I really appreciate the sentiment.
Nanga mnthuni odzingotinzunza onthu omeewa?
Enough is enough !
Awelenge iyi yokha puluzi,kkkk
Atupele and DPP should not be allowed to hide behind fake elections fraud claims to run away from justice. This will not be allowed to happen. Arrest for those who stole government money should be the main topic going forward. No mercy. Investigations need to start from 1994 to 2020. Every year need to be thoroughly scrutinised, year by year and all the money must be recovered no matter where it was deposited in this planet. All properties that were built by illegal money will be confiscated and sold and money used for developing Malawi.
Yes
Auditors should investigate from 2004 and all involved should face the Law.
Yes, we have to check the salary of each person vs the property owned for a particular period
Most of these politicians are not good business men.Chances are that they lost most of the money. But what we can take back is Land and Real Estate belonging to the people of Malawi
It will take sometime for this man to learn being truthful. He has been brought up by a lying and thieving father and he is still attached to him. When he becomes independent he will learn how to face reality.
Ngati Munatomakidwa ndi Blantyre Yomwe …Anyway just Understand him he thought he would inherit the Muluzi and Muntharika kingdom…Amatotitenga ngati timatokhala pa Estate ya MuMu Ife…Munayitaya Game Nokha by choosing to Side with. the Tribalistic and Corrupt Regime …Lilian Patel anatoyamba bwino mu Parliament muja during the 50 +1 deliberations … And we all thought UDF was on the Right Path.
…Koma Dyera Lanu Bwana….
Uyu ndiye mbuzi ya munthu..tangomvomelezani kuti mwawona nyekhwe bwanji.
THE B6 forms were delivered at night? in absence of dpp monitors? but in presence of mdf and police?
Kkkkkk uVP wa mwezi Umodzi wa Convoy ndi Mbendera umakomatu!!!!! Mwabangula mokweza pajatu atate anu was amongst the first to advise contestants to ACCEPT RESULTS…..
More Fire Boma la TONSE lafika 🇲🇼🇲🇼🇲🇼🇲🇼🔥🔥🔥
Atupele wapera nadi
NYEKHWE, kikikikiiiiiiii.
Another fool who was taking Malawians for a ride.All along i have been saying about how stupid Atupere is but no one could understand my point.When your brain is full of corrupt minded you always thinks others are like you.Malawi of today is not when your father took over from Kamuzu.You shall never be a president of this country Atupere.
IWE NAWE IWE,WUNAYAMBAPO WAWINA CHISANKHO IWE..
Oh yes it’s obvious let’s wait but atupele he just small as me besides he is rich he already domed he thought it could been easy for him to walk freely to e a malawi president sorry buthi
This big headed boy over rates himself. We will move on and remain with your two agogos. Politically you are finished and has no space in our politics anymore. Who do you think you will become? Kudzikwata ndi chala. Greed ndiyimeneyi. Thinking about yourselves and not the country. God loves Malawi and we will keep on praying for peace. Which results are you waiting for to concede? Kuyipa kosakhoza masamu ndikumeneku. Manambala saanama. Koma, we have really put you where you belong.
Atupele WAVIFYONTHA!!! WAVIMYANTHA !!!
KUZOLOWELA KUNAMA BASI MWANA WA TCHEYAYU. NANGA KU BLANTYRE NAKONSO MA MONITOR A DPP ANAMENYEDWA NDIKUTHAMANGISIDWA.
