Chimulirenji says ‘Chilima has pulled me down from VP’

May 22, 2020 Owen Khamula - Nyasa Times 33 Comments

Minister of Disaster Management Affairs Everton Chimulirenji has hit back at the country’s estranged vice-president Saulos Chilima, saying he is no longer the second-in-command because of the UTM president.

Chimulirenji:   ‘Adzonzi’ is not vice president because of Chilima

Chimulirenji said this on Thursday in Dedza when he accompanied President Peter Mutharika’s running mate in the Constitutional Court sanctioned fresh presidential election, Atupele Muluzi.

He was responding to Chilima’s earlier remarks in which he said that Chimulirenji is the victim of Mutharika’s bad decision for his failure to pick him as running mate in the forthcoming election.

“I am a victim of Chilima’s decision to go to court, this is why I am no longer the vice president,” he said.

Chimulirenji was Mutharika’s running mate in the 2019 presidential elections and served as the country’s Vice-president before   the Constitutional Court cut short his tenure when it ordered fresh elections.

He accused Chilima of contributing to his downfall from being vice president.

Chimulirenji said he is not bitter with either Mutharika or Muluzi on the issue of running mate, saying political dynamics made it necessary that Mutharika appoints Muluzi as running mate.

He said Muluzi was the right person for the position and was upbeat that President Mutharika would secure a resounding victory in the elections.

On his choice of 41-year-old Atupele as his running mate, Mutharika said he settled for him because “he is a person I can work with to unite and develop this country. He understands that leadership comes with responsibility”.

  5. Who is blaming who? Did Tonse picked Mia or Manganya for VP? Let the work speaks for you. Kumangolumana za ziiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii

  6. Reminds you of a brat crying out loud because a milk bottle has been snatched away from him. And to imagine he was Malawi’s VP! He didn’t deserve it anyway. Akutichititsa manyazj mkuluyu Ife a ku Ntcheu.

  7. I feel DZonzi ayankha pambali, picking or being dropped of Runningmate sizikugwirizana ndi kuchotsedwa pau Veep,

  10. In case a Dzonzi did not understand the verdict:
    1. APM was NOT duly elected as President in 2019.
    2. MEC were incompetent in the way they conducted the elections
    Chilima is NOT the problem but we the majority of the people who did not vote for DPP(more than 62% of the voters) felt that the vote was NOT free and fair and the courts agreed with us. I summary Dzonzi you illegally got the 100 Million per month budget during the few months you were acting as VP! You have never been VP and you will NOT get benefits.
    Next we are pulling down your boss next month.

  11. Mbuzi pa Malawi. Crying over positions and the rest of the world is discussing progress. Can we not think beyond personal gains for once? Shameful.

  12. Adzonzi ndie kayansotu
    Apa izi akanangozisiya osayankha
    Pamenepo akanamusokoneza waiyambitsayo

  13. Justb ask Atupele to show the general public his Cv. Mwana mbuu! Bambo mbuu! osatinso make ai. Tourists baba.

  15. You’re 100% right Dzonzi. This guy is a deadly monster but we will fight hard, cool. DPP alone destroyed the mcp in 2009 general elections and they were in alliance with another strong party ….. But DPP kicked
    them with landslide victory. Ndiye ka alliance aka nkachiyani?? And it was not Dr J Ansah administered the elections. So coool!!

  17. Bodza a Dzonzi !

    Vuto lanu ndi kusadziwa kulankhula Chizungu kwanuko aNgoni.
    Nthawi yokhala pa mpando chifukwa munthu wapha albino kapena wakhwimira mankhwala ochoka kwa a Sing’anga, inatha.

    You are not of an ‘ international standard’ quality Wawa.

    Pepani, komabe, there is still room for going back to the drawing room. Maybe try again next time,mukadzatwako lilime Wawa.

    Nge isiZulu or isiNguni ngithi………

    Baba Chimulirenji, ngicela uzame ngempela ukufunda isingisi, ukuze ube umuntu owaziyo ukukhuluma uma uhamba nga phesheya noma emihlanganweni ehlukeneyo ya hulumeni.
    Isikhathi sokuba ne isikhundla ngoba umuntu ubulele albino noma utwele nge imithi yoqamuka e sangomeni, sesiphelile.
    Manje, kudingeka umuntu ofundileyo.

  18. Awa ndi achitsiludi. It wasn’t Chilima but rather your attempt to rig the elections which were exposed by the courts. Thanks God we don’t have this pair of baffoons (him and NTCHONA) to lead us to 2024.

  21. Hahaha koma chimulirenji is really funny and stupid. His stupidity speaks volumes about the one who appointed him

  22. his argument is very unfortunate. Chimulirenji ndi womvetsadi chisoni. MP unakuphonyaniso

  23. Eish Kkkkkkkkk cry me a river,

    You say that Atupele.is the right man for the job and happy the President picked him. With your sadness an lacking of self esteem likely had more to do with not being selected or possibly that both of you lost your parlimentry seats. Change your speech to the success of being Minister of Disaster instead of creating a Disaster with such foolish speeches.
    The President soon very soon. Will use your speech, VOTE WISELY VOTE CHANGE VOTE UTMCP

  24. Thank God Chilima did that, you would have been the most underqualified Veep in the history of the world.

    1. This is where you are wrong, the constitution guarantees the basic qualifications for the job and it’s every Malawians right to have that opportunity to serve. Chimulilenji met all those qualifications and check boxes ontop of being a malawian citizen. Dont infringe on other people’s rights. Even you can be handpicked to be vp if you met those checks just like Chilima was handpicked. Who knew Chilima before Apm decision to pick from outside the party???

  27. Well at least u had the ministry of disaster and management affairs specifically created to accommodate u in it…..!
