Chakwera query new gazetted laws: Rejects Mutharika’s claims on MCP’s link with HRDC

Malawi Congress Party (MCP) president Lazarus Chakwera has questioned the relevance of the supplementary laws gazetted Friday by the minister of Homeland Security Nicholas Dausi, which have declared the airports and border posts out of bounds for the demonstrators.

Chakwera: Hits at DPP
Dausi said the supplementary laws have declared airports, land boarders, Capital Hill, prisons, National Oil Company of Malawi strategic fuel reserves and the Reserve Bank of Malawi as protected areas, hence no one is allowed to hold demonstrations at these places, as doing so is treasonous.
According to the new regulations, no one is to hold a demonstration or assemble in protected place, saying that such a person who contravenes the provisions commits an offence.
But Chakwera told reporters in Saturday  that the Minister flawed some important steps that are taken before anything is gazetted to a law.
He accused the Democratic Progressive Party (DPP) of displaying its lawlessness in trampling on Supreme Laws of the land by drafting and enacting laws while bypassing Parliament which is duly established for drafting and passing of legislations  in a bid to get what may please them on protected areas.
Chakwera bemoaned the continued attacks on public critics with the recent case of petro bombing of MCP’s Director of Campaign, Moses Kunkuyu’s premises in Blantyre and HRDC Chairperson Timothy Mtambo’s house in Lilongwe a fortnight ago.
He further commended Malawi Defence Force (MDF) for its professional way of controlling the crowd during demonstrations and court session.
Chakwera also distanced his party from the claims made by President Peter Mutharika that his party in collaborating with Human Rights Defenders Coalition (HRDC) in organising the ‘higher gear’ demonstrations as the latest of a series of protests it has organised to try and force Malawi Electoral Commission (MEC) chairperson Jane Ansah for allegedly presiding over a fraudulent May 21 general elections in which PreMutharika was declared the winner.
President Mutharika accused Chakwera and his UTM Party compatriot Saulos Chilima of attempting to take over the government unlawfully by supporting the HRDC demonstrations.
He said some  people of Malawi, whom some belong to MCP, are the ones partaking the protests.

    1. You do not seem to know the difference between laws and regulations do you? Or you are a mere sound box for the nonsense from your political master Yona?

    1. Only God can judge him. There is a reason for everything, even John Chilembwe was scorned, abused and castigated by the colonialist. Munthalika is mtchona who sadly belongs to the era of nationalists.

  1. Mbusa wabodza ngati iwe sitinamuone nkale lonse, anthu mukumakatenga kwa Nsundwe, Dowa , kasungu ,mchinji Ntchisi kumadzaononga katundu wa anthu ku Lilongwe aja simumayankhulapo kanthu, koma MCP mukuzitenga ngati ndinu anthu ofunika kwambili????? Kuononga katundu wanu yemwe anthu opanda nzeru ngati inu sitinawaone!!!!!!

        1. it is his choice what is wrong with that? do not judge because you will be judged too. mind your own business,

      1. Ngakhale makoklo amanena kuti bwino nao maina mumapatsa anawa. Lazro is really bankrupt in the head…turned Yona and infected with a wanna be fake accent…Makoklo adalosera….kkkkkkkk

  2. Fake Accent Ex-reverend Yona Chakwera will never cease to amaze me. He enjoys kumira pachipande while musana wonse ukuonekera. Like the proverbial ostrich burying the head in the sand and self-deceitfully thinking it is hiding. Yona, get this I to the thick head between your two ears: you cannot dissociate your murderous EMUSIPI from the violent street actions that has been orchestrated through your unholy coalition with HRDC and UTM. Do not deceive yourself into thinking that Malawians do not see. We see it all.

  3. We are tired of Democratic Police Party that has reduced the entire Police into ruling Cadets.
    Lawlessness has crept into our country because the Police have allowed it’s cadets to take charge.Shaaaame

  4. The interim government is confused – it must go very fast. Never steal votes – in principle do not be a thief, its a curse and what follows you is bad results. If you disagree check the thieves you know and you would agree with me.

  5. Out of curiosity, utm and mcp hold demos together but press conferences no. Anthu awa akuzemberana ndithu. If at all they were in a coalition, they should have been doing these activities together through and through but this way of doing things, wina adyapo galu. A utm muyiwerenge bwino. It seems that mcp is in vey much good terms with hrdc than utm is with hrdc. By the way, these HRDCs are in many countries. For instance in Tanzania they call it THRDC and they have a tv station. Its reporter was arrested for only purportedly reporting fake news last week. Koma kuno kumangowaonera akuononga katundu. Here there are more and
    grave reasons for arresting mtambo and trapece. Govt look into this idea. Ordinary malawians have better things not mademo every other week. So arrest them. Borrow a leaf from magufuli and he is going to tell on how to execute this.

  6. This devil is highly linked to the HRDC chairperson Timothy Mtambo.Is this devil talking to Chewas only ?may be !!!We other tribes are not fans of Gule wankulu tribe,What this devil knows is to rudely provoke Prof Mutharika .Akakhala wanzathu wakumupoto awa aaahh walibe pogwira wangoti chagwa mmbale ndindiwoo basi KKK.Itabwera DPP wanailandila ndimanja reveni,nkudhana nayoo!!Itabhwera PP wanailandira eweee nanji Jowisi mwamuna wake wakumupotooo weee!!kwbhwera UTM eweeee bamboo wailandira kwamtima bii!!Koma zones ndimanyimanyi panopa kkkk.Kutha nzeruu mubhusaa!!Mfiti yotheratu kkkk.Tiyeni nazooo naachina mathanyula wanu Mtambo ndi Trapence.Who doesn’t know what they promote in Malawi.Homosexual Gay rights kkkk.Kumaika tumapost pa whatsu totchula god wawooo Lucifer tuu osati God wawonse ayii koma wawoo wawooo.

    1. Mwini thako ndiwedi chiphwisi chononkha zedi. Nzeru kokhalira kofota ngati kwa nyani. Kugona a Malawi exercise your rights. KOma bola somba ndi fanta basitu zakukwanani. nyani iwe. chithako chako. osandiyankha pokhapokha ndiwe chiphwisi

  7. This is serious, Dausi or any person should not be allowed to draft laws to suit political interest no,m. Should parliament not reprimand Dausi and charge with fraud in this case? This is both fraud and abuse of power.

  8. Iwe gule Chakwera ndiye chitsiru chenicheni ngati iwe umasatila malamulo osadikila nkhani ili ku court bwanji. Sungakhale president iwe kungomva kuti Malawi yaphweka. Ulira sunati even Olo ku court anzako nkhani yavuta kale yamuvutayo ndi petitioner number1 ukuwona utayiwina? Shame bitter looser Gule Chakwera and go to hell..uziwawuza zimenezi a MCZ anzakowo anthu ozinyenga ndi chala
