Chilima to address news conference Wednesday as Malawi govt chokes VP’s office
State vice president Saulos Chilima has arranged a news conference on Wednesday to comment on recent political developments, his office has said.
The development comes when the Veep uses personal vehicles for official duties because his official fleet is obsolete and prone to frequent and regular break downs, parliament was told on Tuesday.
Chairperson of the parliamentary cluster committee responsible for the veep’s vote, Lilian Patel said in addition, the office of the vice president has inadequate fleet.
“The ministry of finance should buy the office new vehicles,” said Patel.
This comes at the time when the government has just bought some of the top of the range vehicles for cabinet ministers.
Patel said the principal secretary uses his personal vehicles as well.
She lamented that the office had drastically and consequently reduced the budget.
Chilima fell out with president Peter Mutharika after stories that the veep wants to challenge Mutharika for the position of the ruling Democratic Progressive party.

Moto moto…tikudikila kuti timva chiani lero!
All this noise is because he wants payback for helping rig an election. its his fault and his rigging tactics that have put Malawi where it is. Stealing an election is evil and we can see by the way he is trying to overthrow Peter and takeover DPP that he really isn’t that different from the rest. Power hungry and entitlement. Anawaliza a Mbendera uyu.
Our country is lacking a leader who truly love it like the way Bingu did in his first 5 years. If SKC is going to address challenges that malawians are facing l can assure you he will be our next president whether as a DPP candidate or independent candidate. l’m wishing you all the best SKC & may good Lord continue showering blessing upon you.
Chilima u better break the silence. U can not be a president with secrets
Chilima will announce tomorrow to your disappointment that he is not ready to stand. it will be a big disappointment. By the way which media house has will air this much-awaited press conference?
you said the truth agenda setting theory. what does this lead his followers to???
Paja Amalawi sachedwa kuyiwala.Two guys rig an election together. Later things don’t work out and they fell out.Suddenly one is the Devil and the other a Saint.You have forgetten the Jammed Phones,The burning of polling Centres ,Disruption of Mec IT system .This Poor Country of mine thinks all these things just Happened. Tiyeni nazoni muzalira.Unless of course you tell me that Saulo wasanduka Paulo after kutibera zisankho zija.Anyone who rigs elections does not Value human life.Sanafe mnyamata kumangochi demo yachisankho chija?
mulungu yekha atitsongolele
For the future of my children, I have to vote for you if you stand in 2019, if not you then some1 else, Peter has failed Malawians quite a big deal, nothing seem to be working as far as I am concerned

MAY GOD FORBID MALAWI’S HARD EARNED FREEDOM AND DEMOCRACY CANNOT AND SHALL NOT BE CHOKED BY FEW CROOKS /MAFIAS/CADETS AND FIELD MARSHALS FROM DPP—WHERE WERE THEY WHEN MALAWIANS OF GOODWILL WERE DYING IN THE HANDS OF ( CROCODILES )MYP ??
ANSWER #ABROAD IN COMFORT ZONES WITH THEIR FAMILIES.
Some of these stories dont make sense. Maybe his accountant and other people just dont know how to do their job. If the office is allocated money, you mean they cant even hire a vehicle for the VEEP to use and he uses his personal vehicle. What are their priorities. SKC even before he fell out was known to like driving his personal car on the convoy.
Treasury/ MOF cannot see any haste or need to buy new fleet for the VP of the country. But if it were for vice presidents of DPP, that could have been top priority.
In fact if it was about forging a bank check/ a letterhead for a DPP conman, to exonerate him from conviction, it could have been a done deal already.
SHAME on thieves!!!
it’s up to his office to buy if they budgeted for that expenditure.
Moto kuti buuuuu
From what has been happening in this country since multiparty democracy, it has proved that we do not need the Vice President position. People take u pulezidenti ngati ufumu, Ngongoliwa has no deputy.
Go for it man, if you fail it won’t be the end of the World at least u have a working a brain and work ethic…it won’t be easy going forward though as corrupt people will try to keep the status quo….no sweet without sweat!!!!!
Bravo!!!!!! SKC, Moto Kuti Buuuuuuuu this is the time we have been waiting for……..hopefully you have heard the third call.
just look at him! Doesn`t he look like a president already! Chilima woyeee!
We need people who have passion for their country. People who can uplift the poor. Any one voted into power must be ready to change this country into a producing and exporting country or else pack up and go. We need conducive environment to create jobs, develop businesses , etc. People who walk the talking not just politics. Tikufuna magetsi , misewu yolimba not like ya ku Area 24 , Change Zomba, Mangochi, Karonga and Salima to a city status, I want to see a government that will change the above towns into cities with its facilities/infrastructures befitting a city status not like the way it is. Any one with good senses can not call Zomba a city. Tell me what makes Zomba a city? All these governments are ignoring Zomba. No notable companies
