Chilima raps at ‘80-year-old’ thieving politician: ‘Azisiya!’

UTM president Saulos Chilima has said Malawians are tired of corruption and nepotism and want change.

Chilima: I say the foolishness that must stop is the foolishness of intimidating people into coercion

Speaking on Friday in Balaka when he addressed a political rally at Balaka Primary School, Chilima said once voted into power on May 21, his administration would institute investigations on dubious and bogus transactions.

Chilima pledged to seal loopholes that have led to government losing billions of kwacha from public coffers.

“I am happy that Escom has taken back its vehicles which were on [Everton] Chimulurenji convoy but why is it that the government has hired vehicles for the convoy? This is suspicious,” said Chilima.

He said there was also need to investigate the K145 million which an Indian businessman Zameer Karim deposited into the ruling Democratic Progressive Party (DPP) bank account whose sole signatory is President Peter Mutharika as well as five vehicles worth K85 million Karim donated to the DPP.

“By the way why is an 80-year-old getting into thieving business,” said Chilima, adding “I have not mentioned a name here. I amjust saying an 80-year-old man.”

And in direct response to President Peter Mutharika, Chilima  said politics of intimidation to coerce people has no place in a multiparty dispensation.

“Don’t say mutinyenyanyenya or kutufinya thinking we will be intimidated. No, not at all,” said Chilima, stressing that politics of intimidation in Malawi ended after the 1993 referendum.

“The ruling party leadership should stop intimidating people. The leadership said recently that the foolishness of trying to rig the elections should stop but I say the foolishness that must stop is the foolishness of intimidating people into coercion,” he said.

He said it is clear that DPP will be going out of government in the next three weeks and that President Mutharika must accept is like a relay race his time to handle over the mantle has come “azisiya, izi ndizosiyilana.”
“That is why they are making all these allegations that we want to rig the elections when we win on 21st May. But this will not happen we are working so hard, campaigning hard to win these elections not rig them,” said Chilima.

He said UTM wholly agrees with the Malawi Electoral Commission (MEC) assertion that nobody will rig the May 21 Tripartite Elections and asked DPP to stop fantasising with the idea that the elections will be rigged.

Chilima said Malawi is reeling from bad governance and economic mismanagement and that is why UTM is going around selling its manifesto of hope, respect for the rule of law, financial prudence and denouncing nepotism, cronyism and tribalism.

  3. What I know is that Chilima will not win this election and after there he will be nobody because of his big heart and temper he will never ever be the president of Malawi. Come May 21 DPP will be given another new term to rule this country, save my comment if you are doubting of this

  4. munthu opanda tsankho sangavotere chakwela chilima alipo. first you must forget to be a chewa, lomwe, tumbuka, sena, yao, ngoni e.t.c. and if you don’t bring denomination into this you will see that no one is close chilima. he is super intelligent and has the ability. loose this opportunity and its 50 years + before a person of this kind appears again. STOP BEING BLIND

  8. Chilima’s frustration is getting more and more strong as he realizes that he won’t win the elections… that he has realized DPP is far much ahead of his UTM…,he is resolting to rude and insulting behavior…malawians don’t want that kind of behavior

    1. Which Malawi? You’re the only enemy of progress Malawi has ever seen. All the sufferings we’re going through and you’re talking bullshit. This is the kind of leader we all want. Stop dreaming!!!

    2. Kkkkkkkk funny indeed which DPP that is far much ahead? It’s better probably you could have mentioned MCP.

Oh and plus building Joyce Banda convention center and Njamba international multipurpose stadium in two years? plus cities in Mangochi, Salina, Nkhatabay and Karonga?……..
      Wow!!!! this man must be a miracle worker.

    2. Chakwera no mfundo. I was completely disappointed – not only me but all citizens with no mfundo rally that was held at Njamba. MCP has proved to be the weakest link. How could you say that you will not arrest all thieves. Is it because of Bedgate Khumbo Kachali and cashgate JB??? TO HELL WITH MCP

  12. AUZEN BWANA…ndi mafana , mbava za dpp….mmaso mwawo…ASAAAA!!!!! atikwaana kutibera mpaka five years… KOMANSO DZIKO LATHU NDILOPUSA KWABASI….MALAMULO TILIBE ETI?

  14. Arafat lives in a fools’ paradise of self-deception. It is not rudeness or insults to people who washed you that will make you win any election. Malawians want good clean leadership. Not you kaladi behaviour yomanka nunyoza anthu. No no no.

    2. Was good behaviour protrayed at Njamba yesterday when all MCP speakers where directing their speeches to Chilima…Kunkuyu, Mia, The MC. MCP has proved to be a failure with no mfundo. Your president was just all over the place. What kind of a leader with no mfundo…ati RED ku flasher…zopusa

      1. munthu opanda tsankho muntima mwake will not vote for chakwela ngati chilima alipo. it is obvious to anyone that chilima is super intelligent. you must forget that you are a chewa, ngoni, lomwe, tumbuka or sena. and if you don’t involve denomination in this, for sure you know that chilima alibe opikisana naye.
