Dausi says Chilima should now resign as Malawi VP: Accuses UTM of foul-mouthing

Malawi government spokesperson, Nicholas Dausi, has asked State vice-president Saulos Chilima to abdicate from his Constitutional position following his attacks on the government of perpetuating corruption and nepotism.

Dausi: Let Chilima resign as Vice-President 

Dausi urged Chilima to joining the ranks of opposition parties in the trenches of electoral battle for State House in next year’s polls.

Dausi said it was ironical that Chilima is talking about corruption now yet he remained quiet for the past four years.

“If there is corruption, let the Vice-President resign from government so that he remains holy as he claims. In civilised democracies, if a minister is against the policies of government, they resign, why is Chilima not resigning?

He said the Vice-President should resign if he is serious about corruption.

Chilima has openly declared war against the DPP and President Peter Mutharika who he is accusing of maladministration.

He has warned that he will soon spill the beans about shady deals the current administration is allegedly involved in, including in the procurement of Escom generators.

And United Transformation Movement (UTM) secretary general Patricia Kaliati has shot down the resignation demands, saying Chilima will stay on as Vice-President, a position elected by Malawians after standing on the ballot with Mutharika in 2014.

“Dr Saulos Klaus Chilima will not resign until 2019 because he was chosen by Malawians. They are sponsoring people to watch football on the days we are having our rallies so that people do not patronise our rallies but they have failed,” Kaliati said.

Dausi said DPP is not amused with Kaliati and people in the movement for their “foul-mouthing”.

He said UTM doing salvage politics of insulting the DPP.

“They insulted us at Masintha and they went to town with no respect at all,” Dausi lamented.

UTM is a splitter movement  from DPP which is touting transformational change.

  1. Honourable Dausi, if you think that by Chilima resigning as VP, DPP will have an easy ride, then you haven’t been paying attention. In fact Honourable Dausi, that’s the least of your problems. DPP has 10 months to start delivering on its promises of 2014 and to decisively deal with corruption starting your own senior members otherwise UTM will have an easy win come May. The only way you can fight his messaging is for DPP to act on the very agenda on which UTM will thrive (corruption, nepotism, cronyism, tribalism, regionalism, unethical leadership, lack of independence on law enforcement agencies, lack of delivery of basic services, youth unemployment etc). Just simple things that DPP well captured in its manifesto and contained in the its policy documents/promises. Chilima has kindly revealed his winning formula all you need to do deliver on those mwakachetechete. Unfortunately DPP has a lot of screaming babies who don’t even understand vision, strategies and implementation. Koma kuba kuli thooooo

  2. Y calling Chiliza to resign ngati kuti alipo yekha amene asakugwira ntchito m’malawi mumo.Nde ma civil servants ngati muzipatala nawo awuzeni apangenso resign chifukwa akungokhala kusowa zipangizo.Mpatseni ntchito Chilima tione ngati sagwira.Mesa ndizokonza kusampatsa ntchito yoti agwire.Muziwa munthu nkulinga utayenda nayo.Chilima DON’T resign.

    1. U r not getting the point bro. Chilima is not asks to resign becoz he is not working only BT becoz it will be hard for him to work with the gvt he doesn’t trust & which he is against with. Politics aside, do u think is logical to work with the group f pple you are up against with?

  3. Honour among thieves. Mbava sizinagawane bwino ndiye zaukiranapo aa. Ndiye nkhani yake

  4. Chilima is the Vice President for the Malawi Government not DPP. tiwone bwino pamenepo….. wina sakugona Tulo.

    1. Chilima is a failed VICE PRESIDENT of the Republic of Malawi, Who during his tenure of office failed to stop corruption or bring the culprit to book..having failed to stop corruption he is busy stealing tax payers money by receiving salaries for the job he has failed to do.

      1. Bwana you should know better. Your President is that one running this ship which is sinking, Chilima has jump out. If you acknowledge that there is corruption, lets start with the President. HE HAS FAILED!! Chilima couldnt do much. They even took him out of the Reform Program, why? The President has ultimate power. MALAWIANS NEED TO STOP BEING STUPID, DONT VOTE FOR THE SAME OF BINGUS 1ST TERM OR TRADITIONAL ALIGNMENTS. OUR COUNTRY IS GOING DOWN THE DRAINS CAUSE OF THIS AND NO INTELLIGENT BEING CAN DENY IT.

        PLEASE LETS HOLD POLITICIANS TO ACCOUNT. WHEN THEY ARE CORRUPT,

  5. Dausi is missing a point, what needs to happen is not Chilima to resign but for the DPP and their prince of thieves to stop stealing without shame from the poor malawians. Thats all what needs to haappe mr dausi!

  6. Mr Dausi,accusing government it does not need someone to be in opposition parties only,NO.Even if he or she is in government as long as they is something wrong he/she can accuse or oppose it.Stop having old types of politics of being a hand clapper even on a wrong thing Mr Dausi.Thus why we are saying leave these modern politics to NEW GENERATION.

  7. Chimene mwandisangalatsila bwana Dausi ndichakuti mwavomelezera lero titakuma kuti adakusambwadzani mwanayu pa Masintha bansi, ndipo ndipamene ndadziwira kuti inunso muwanthawa anzanuwa, chifukwa cha momwe mwalankhulira m’mawa uja lero

  8. Mwamna, Dausi, akumudzi, mutamangoyang’ana zinazi, maso anu sachita khungu kapena ng’ala ndiponso mutamangomamvetsera khutu siligontha, tikuchita manyazi ndi ifetu akumudzi.

  9. Let Mutharika and Chilima resign together, to quote Dausi in civilised democracies whosoever is implicated in corruption scandals step down. Let Muthatika set the pace

  10. Nonse okuba nokha nokha we want nonse muchoke. SKC naye mbava. APM same

  11. Dausi should carefully ready the provisions of the Malawi constitution as articulated within section 80, 83 and 86.Just to remind him one of the sections states as follows:

    “The Vice President shall hold office from the date of the administration of the Office of the President until the end of the Presidents term of office unless their office should come to an end sooner in accordance with the provisions of the constitution.”

    Mutharika’s administration is still on and therefore SKC will not resign because he has not yet contravened the provisions of the constitution. In addition, there is no evidence that SKC has been declared of unsound mind, he has not yet been declared bankrupt, he has not yet been convicted of a criminal offence in the last seven years and he has not shown any allegiance to any foreign government.”MUYISOVA

  12. Kkkkkkkkkk 😂😂😂😂 so U mr Dausi what so ever you called your self
    At last u have agreed that your Party DDP is lndeed fool and ndinu akuba kwambiri
    Hahahahahahahaha
    2019 Chilima boma

    1. Chilima naye wakuba. anabera mavote. off akumudzi tikudziwa anabera technology ameneyi. Ali ndi nyumba anavala mwakuba

  13. Aaaaa! Resigning now is dangerous Hon Dausi. APM is facing impeachment and corruption charges so we will have no president to run the country. Let APM resign first

    Koma zavuta basi

  14. I agree with those who are saying Chilma should step down from his position as the VP. Can you tell me one convincing reason why he should stay on? There is no morality in what he is doing. He was to remain second in command and talk ill about his own. As a VP he is still part of DPP led government. Common sense should tell him that he should step down

    1. Then it should start with the Thief-in-Chief himself. The constitution of Malawi Section 12(3) states that the authority to exercise state power is conditional upon the sustained trust of the people of Malawi and that trust can only be maintained by accountable and transparent government and informed by democratic choice. This APM has violated every requirement in the clause. How can he be transparent when he opens a personal account in the name of the party to channel ill-gotten wealth? How can his government be transparent when they secretly use MWK4 billion tax payers money to buy MPs to defeat their own bills in Parliament. How can he be accountable when he refuses to appear before parliament to answer questions? How can he be democratic when he is suppressing dissenting views? The president has lost trust of most Malawians except his cronies and tribesmen. Let’s hold a referendum and see how many people trust this thief.

      How can we trust someone whose government awards his cronies billions of taxpayers money for overstated property destroyed but refuses to compensate families of those killed by his late brother on July 21. His government couldn’t even build a tombstone. How can we trust a government that sells a public bank to cover up toxic loans by his cronies and tribesmen?

  15. No he shouldn’t resign at all. Adzikuonani bwino mukamaba. Akatuluka he will have no access to information ya mmene mukubera. Mbabva DPP

  16. Dausi where were you when Mchacha was insulting others ndima Jefule aja tiyeni nazo no resgnations apa tili limodzi basi

  17. You are asking him to resign because he told the truth???!, he is entitled to freedom of expression like any Malawian is entitled to free speech! …,,….the truth hurts!

  18. Dausi you are a big fool. Have you forgotten how Jeffrey wa Jeffrey, Mchacha and others in your DPP insult opposition politicians? Even the president is the masterminder of savage politics with his sarcastic language. You have introduced savage politics in Malawian democracy and you need to face it in retaliation-deal with it. You guys have even gone far to kill others in order to enjoy your positions so why the crying now?

  19. Hehehede banenanani pachiweniweni. Ife tidzingopenya, koma a Dausi mwadziwa lero kuti kunyozana si kwabwino? Inu mwanyoza anthu angati kapena zipani zingati? Mwakomana nazotu apa

  20. Every newcomer in politics especially presidential aspirants have at one time claimed about assassination plots inorder to buy sympathy. DPP should not waste time doing any harm to this Chilima because the man has in no way bruised the party. If we follow closely and we will discover that it is the MCP which is bruised with this movement while Malawians expected the DPP to be hit hard. However, the bruise in MCP will not make Chilima amass more votes in 2019 than those of Chakwera. MCP is a party with roots while Chilima and his movement will burn and fade as we go towards elections. What they have is town votes which is just 20% of the votes. Let Chilima see things from a far and realize that the 2019 elections are not for him. This should just be a preparation for the 2024 votes, wake up Chilima. But my warning to Chilima is that he should be careful with the people who happens to call the shots in the movement. Rival parties will use them to decampaign the movement. These faces in the front line will darken the movement and it will be a punch bag when campaign time comes. I also advise SKC not be too hasty as the journey continues.

    1. please explain how this movement has bruised MCP, otherwise your arguments are baseless as well.

    2. @Santana don’t cheat yourself with this overzealous support for the party which is sinking and losing steam by the day. Munasowatu pakati apa kuopa kupanga comment on the shameful things that you r “old cargoes” have been in. I wonder where people like you get courage to support this insensitive govt.

      Let me tell you: DPP is now cornered just like a lion surrounded by a group of hyenas, not knowing which hyena to intimidate and chase, as another one comes behind to bite it. DPP imalimbana ndi MCP with cheap propaganda on MBC ndi ma nonsense a ” Sapitamo Kawiri” and other use less programmes. Panopa Fisi wina in the name of UTM akulumira chakumbuyo uku crippling the hind legs. I don’t know which strategy this madala team is gonna use to curb fisi wachiwewe uyu in the name of UTM?

      MUYISOVA.

  21. Dausi is another thief in DPP, a useless guy. Late Bingu Wa Muthalika never resigned when he ditched UDF that steered him into government and he ended up forming DPP at the expense of UDF votes. You cannot force Chilima to resign ….kagwere uko, a foolish man.
