Chakwera risks arrest over ‘bloodshed’ insurrection plot with HRDC

Malawi Congress Party (MCP) president Lazarus Chakwera  risks arrest and prosecution  as President Peter Mutharika on Sunday accused him of plotting insurrection through  violence using the party’s supporters way before the May 21 2019 elections.

Mutharika said on Sunday that  the protest marches and violence perpetrated by alleged MCP supporters in some areas in the aftermath the May 21 Tripartite Elections were part of the plan Chakwera had with Human Rights Defenders Coalition (HRDC).

The President was speaking  at a political mass rally his Democratic Progressive Party (DPP) and alliance partners United Democratic Front (UDF) held at Njamba Freedom Park in Blantyre.

He said Chakwera’s master plan was to make Malawi an ungovernable State of lawlessness.

Mutharika said he has listened to an audio clip in which Chakwera and HRDC members were discussing the plot, in which MCP president was overheard talking about “bloodshed” if he loses the presidential elections.

Nyasa Times understands that the law enforcers have the audio clip and would pursue the matter by interrogating Chakwera.

The President alleged that Chakwera was orchestrating violence and “bloodshed” in the country to bring chaos.

He said Chakwera, who finished second to him in the presidential race, had already plotted to  organise violent protests.

Mutharika said Chakwera and HRDC had plotted to create chaos and civil unrest using lives of unsuspecting innocent Malawians to take over government by violence.

I see DPP wants chaos, let them bring it own. We will die for posterity’s future. No more nepotism, no more tribalism. We are tired of your nonsensical thieving and looting. Remember when Malawians are tired, they are unstoppable. Bring it own, remember 20 July 2011. Bring it own. Apolice mulipo angati mdziko, mfuti mukudalirazo mulinazo zingati. Mutha kupha anthu angati. If you want bloodshed, we are ready to push back.We cant let APM and his band of thugs run this country into an abyss. I stay we stand ready to defend what our martyrs bestowed on us. Shuppit!

APM with his police want bloodshed in Malawi because of re- run. Try to arrest Chakwera and see for yourself. This police you rely cannot stand to war. Ulemu ulibe watopa ndi ufulu we know very well that you want to run away from your own people

Hallucinations… Where is Boko Halam? APM previous sentiments linking the opposition to Boko Halam went away silently

APM has been having nightmares. APM is feeling the heat. This man has destroyed the country. By arresting people he is only making them heros and more popular.
