Chakwera salutes Sidik and Abida Mia for being workaholic as MCP make inroads in south

Leader of main opposition Malawi Congress Party (MCP) Dr Lazarus Chakwera has showered praises to seasoned politician and business magnate Sidik Mia and his wife Abida Mia for their efforts in reviving the party in the southern region.

Chakwera said this during a rally he addressed at Malindi Ground in the Malawi’s lakeshore district of Mangochi.

“The Mias are doing a fantastic job—we are appreciating their efforts in strengthening the party,” said Chakwera to the Mias amidst ululations from the crowd that graced the rally.

The MCP leader  was happy to see the crowd the party commanded in the area considered to be the stronghold of the former ruling United Democratic Front (UDF).

“Things have really changed. To see such a crowd here in Mangochi attending MCP rally—the area where people used to treat UDF as their religion is very strange,” said a resident of Malindi.

Speaking during the rally, Mia pledged that he will drill 20 boreholes in the area and dish out 5 Million Kwacha loan for women and youths to start businesses shall they vote for their candidate, Ambrose Hamisi.

MCP, PP, UDF have all featured their candidates but residents say the Tuesday’s by-elections will be a two horse race between the MCP candidate and the UDF Candidate.

The Malindi rally was attended by Harry Mkandawire, Maurice Munthali, Joseph Njovuyalema, Francis Muluzi and Ezikiel Ching’oma among other notable figures.

  1. @Kaka ni dada
    How strong is MCP in the south? How strong is MCP in Mangochi? As already said Malindi is not purely Yao area. MCP thought can bring magic and win in the area taking this advantage. Now that it can lose in the neutral area how dare they talk of penetrating Mangochi? Malindi is populated by people from Likoma which happens to be north of Malawi. This is why Harry Mkandawire and Maurice Munthali went to show themselves in that area with majesty. If they won there, they would say it openly about the real home of the Malindi people. If MCP backed by the north can lose in a neutral area like this one do they expect to make inroads in Mulanje or Chiradzulu? Kaka ni dada please try to follow real politics not the way you are doing it. You are talking about Kasungu. Do you want to tell me that the Lhomwes can out number the Tumbukas to the point of making DPP members win parliamentary seats in the north? My brother, are you telling me that those defectors we hear and see daily from MCP are Lhomwes? Kaka nakuwonani ndimwe wokanika komanso ndale simuzijiwa yayi. Ndimwe atalamu pa ujinga.

  2. Very impressive results of workaholis by Chakwera standards : 2-0. MCP was saved by voter apathy in October by elections. Thanks to the people of Mangochi and Mulanje for coming up with the latest and current political barometer.

  4. Malawians,have you not learnt from the latest catastrophic immigration invasion into European nations by Muslims posing as refugees and yet they were not.They invaded the trusting Europeans in day light.As soon as the gates were opened for satanic people,they forthwith started to randomnly killing the white people and imposing Shalia law on the Christians.If the people of Malawi have not learnt a lesson from these religious thugs,you will one day wakeup surrounded by Arab Muslims.The Europe you used to know,is not the same,people are slaughtered like goats in their Churches and Mosques are erected everywhere in London,Germany,Sweden,France,Italy,,Greece and many parts of Europe.For your information,if you are not aware of MIA and know what he is doing in your country,by the time the Muslims are on your doors,it will be too late.These people want to overrun the whole world and eventually establish their satanic religion of Islam.Jokes aside,Europe is under siege and the next target is Southern Africa,Mia knows this episode very well and billions of dollars are finding the way to that destination.In Malawi,is a matter of time for the President of the MCP Chakwera and others are on the pay-slips from petrol dollar,be awake.MiA is an Arab Muslim and acts as a sleeping representative of Southern Africa.It will be shameful to have an Arab Muslim as a national Vice-President.Seeing is believing.However,the people of Europe have opened their eyes,but it will take time to contain Islamic revolution in Europe.Malawians,be aware of Mia,Chakwera does not know the moves of Mia,mind you Jesus was betrayed by 30 shillings.Malawians must think twice why Mia and not Msowoya the authentic citizen of Malawi.You just see the number of Mosques which are erected in our country from the South-North and East-West.I plead with Malawians from the North and South not to vote for the traitorous MCP comes 2019.Money is evil,just see how it has corrupted Chakwera by abandoning God and embracing money.Once again,it will be a shameful trend for Malawians to embrace an Arab Muslim as Vice President of an African Black State.Chakwera is a misguided sell-out and deserves disrespectfulness from the overwhelming majority of patriotic Malawians.And again,do not forget what MCP did to the people of Malawi for 32 years under tyrant Hastings Banda.

  6. Kumeneku did Msowoya and Kaliwo went to campaign for our candidate if they are real MCP members?

  8. Hay you have already started to praise them for what. I thought they are going to get a high position for doing that work. nothing to praise, We call it BOOT LICKING. You are now following the DPP style of of politics.

  9. That is the results of having father brother parties of udf and dpp. You don’t treat people as useless once you win the elections no this is the results. UDF inatizuza eeeee ndi achina Dumbo Lemani malemu kumanena kuti Madeya achina Aleke malemu dpp kutizuza eeeeee ndi achina Ben Phiri ati Chief Marhall zilimbava zachabe chabe.

  10. Malindi is not typical Yao area. It is a place for those who came from Likoma Island and they are Tongas. They are viewed as people from the North. MCP should not shine on areas which have never been strong-holds of any party in the south. Let them show their strength in Phalombe or Chimwala in Mangochi. We want MCP to invade areas which are real strongholds of a party as DPP is doing in Kasungu. Whatever the figures MCP can get in these by-elections it cannot be indication for a win in 2019 because it is also losing many members in its strong-hold. The numbers it can get from the south cannot be compared to the number it is losing in the center. Malindi is not a strong-hold of UDF. These people are descendants from the north which supports MCP after failing with Joyce Banda. Test the strength of the party in Mulanje or Chiradzulu.

    3. @Santana umakudziwa ku KU kapena umangomva kuti kuli KU. Amene adzavotere DPP ku Kasungu ndi alomwe amene akuchita utenanti ku ma estate basi, ndiye upiteko ukuwawerenge kuti akukwana angati kumeneko. . ? Vuto lako ndi loti sukukhulupilira kuti MCP yalowa ku south.

  11. Who can trust Atupele? Anagulitsa chipani mwana ameneyu, a Mia gwirani ntchito kumeneko, ife tili pambuyo panu.

    3. UDF has been long dead since the “departure” of its founder Bakili. In a twist of irony, MCP and DPP founders have all departed and so has the PP founder. Parties seem to die with their founders. By extension MCP, DPP, PP will soon die. New parties have to emerge to bring a new dawn of politics in Malawi.
