Despacito! Mia claims MCP ‘gaining ground’ in south Malawi

Politician Muhammed Sidik Mia has claimed the opposition Malawi Congress Party (MCP) is gaining ground in the southern region and insisted he will help give leader of opposition Lazarus Chakwera a big push to get into government.

The former Cabinet minister who recently joined MCP recently said he has confidence with Chakwera leadership that it is the best for Malawi.

Mia said the MCP is now a party of “hope and opportunity.”

He said in the 2019 elections MCP win is no longer an impossible dream.

“MCP has transformed from one party dictatorship and embraced democracy,” said Mia in an Exclusive interview program on Times TV hosted by Brian Banda.

He said MCP has had “proper succession” of leadership since the time of its founding president Ngwazi Dr Hastings Kamuzu Banda.

“We had Gwanda Chakuamba from south who took over from Kamuzu then John Zenus Ungapake Tembo as president of MCP and now Rev Dr Lazarous Chakwera,” said Mia.

He said MCP has credible leader.

“The leadership that is there today will not be associated with evil. Chakwera has come from background from being a religious leader,” said Mia.

But when presenter Brian Banda pressed Mia on his declaration to eye for the position of vice president, he asserted that it was not wrong to aspire for positions, saying many politicians have ambitions.

“There is an existing vice president [Richard Msowoya] and structures. But when time comes it’s up to the people to deicide,” he said.

“Everybody has aspiration in life. I am here to serve at the moment, at the moment there is a vice president, there is an existing structures,” said Mia.

But when pressed to say if he will run for the post of vice president, Mia said: “Yes I will vie for vice presidency, which one I don’t know.”

He added: “People are pushing me to say things that I don’t want to say. Many people have aspirations why singling me out. Why me?”

Banda also quizzed Mia if he is a “greedy” politician having been nomadic by serving in almost all major parties, UDF, DPP, PP and now MCP.

“I don’t think so. I have what it takes to live, I don’t boast about it.
I never moved to different parties, the President took us,” said Mia.

Mia said he cut his first teeth in politics as a member of UDF and when president Bingu wa Mutharika dumped the party to form DPP, he moved along.

He said he dumped PP while Joyce Banda was in power on principle.

Mia, who is known for handouts, said he believes MCP will provide him a big network to do charitable work.

“I have a mammoth task. It’s not an easy task for me to just be there and assist people.  I believe politics being a best form of charity,” said Mia.

Mia strongly believes MCP is slowly getting to edge of power.

He said slowly [despacito] Chakwera will have the sword of governing, saying the political pendulum was swinging, and was “moving towards MCP”.

Mia said Chakwera will transform Malawi for the many and not the few.

He said MCP will form a government that will put an end to corruption and guarantee opportunity for all.

  1. Iam not sure that your name is KUNENA MOSAPSYTILA.Anyway,Iam not in a position to waste my precious time responding to your gibberish and nonsensical narration.In fact,you don’t know what you are talking about.You mean to say that Mia is more Malawian than Peter Muthalika? You must be a deranged person and schizophrenic paranoid of the day.I really love my country wholeheartedly and that’s why I opposed Banda’s callous regime in novel history.You indicated in your story that you are doubting the Muthalikas’nationalities however,no matter where they came from,they are our fellow Africans,they are not Arabs and Muslim.By saying that DPP has killed more people,shows how deeply un informed bastard you are.Who killed Dick Majenje,Twaibu Sangala,A.Gadama,Orton Chirwa,Dunduzu Chisiza,Attati Mphakati,John Gwengwe,Matupi Mkandawire,Harry Jonga,Augustin Bwanausi,Pemba Ndovi,Lifford Mkwapatila Mhango the list is long and heart-breaking for millions of Malawians.Peter is a Lomwe,a Malawian and aboveall an African while you boss Mia is an Arab and Muslim who came to our country to exploit our resources and plant the seeds of Islamic presence in Malawi as a stepping-stone towards Southern Africa as a whole.We are not going to mortgage our dear motherland Malawi to Arab-Muslims,our country will remain Christian until Jesus returns.Mr.Kunena Mosapsytila,please go to school to improve your knowledge otherwise you are a lost barbarian!!!!!!!!

    1. Koma awaso nawo!! anakuuzani ndani kuti kumaiko ena kulibeko okhirisitu? za nzii, iwetu school inakuvuta heavy chifukwa chomwe unakatengako ndi za marilo basi kuteroko mutu wako unadzadza ndi marilo okhaokha kikkkkk mutu umenewo ofunika ukwecha ndi mwala kapena ndi petrol because i have never see you posting any comment that can show kuti really school munayimbadi.

    2. Mr Winston Msowoya before you start castigating others you need to put you thinking right. I am sure you know that MCP is not a name of a person who probably will not die. And I am very sure you know that it is possible to single out the natural person who would have done all those atrocities you are citing. Your beautiful castigation would have ended well should you have mention that person and I am sure your DPP would have loved to assist to bring this person to book. MCP is an institution with structures. People come and go. Change is a continuance process.

      Stop living in the past, most of us were not there and I know my man Rev Chakwera was still busy studying in some schools somewhere. For your information majority of the people now in our MIGHTY MCP are not the one who were there in 1994. Tell me if Jessie, Mkaka, Simbi, Chakwera, Richard, Mia, Belekanyama and many more were there in 1971.

      it is insensible for someone to talk or let alone attribute what happened in 1964 to the new Managers of mighty MCP. Finally I have heard people saying MCP was throwing its critics to Crocodiles to this day no one has shown us the place or remnants of these so called crocodiles. it is just a repeated lie which seem to be true.

      You are still in darkness enjoying a deep sleep, please hear our beautiful slogan and our cry “KWACHA” or “wake up Malawian”

  2. My advise to my beloved leader Chakwela please do not be taken up if indeed u want to win in 2019 start by doing the following things first 1. Clean up the mess that is in the party and unite it. 2. Do not let camps be created in the party. 3 be always be in discussion with ur viceand those that have different views from urs so that no body will find a loop hole to distuble the party. 3 do not promise new comers positions. Which already have people on them rutherbe .neutral and let the convention dicide. You and ur team be on the watch out DPP do not win elections either they steal the win last time u won but its them that stole the win and now they are busy preparing the next move be on the watch out

  3. Nana Mia did not resign from PP government on principle but he moved out quickly before many in Malawi knew that the donors demanded a reshuffle in which three ministers were given to Joyce Banda for removal and Mia was one of them. Bad fish is bad fish and the donors are still there and have the reasons until now. So MCP open your eyeswide open

  4. Koma a mia simukuchita bwino. mpaka pa TV kumanena za MCP kummwera, nanga popeza ife a dpp timadalira kummwera komweko ndiye zitithera bwanji. komabe pa MBC TV pokha sitikuikani

  5. A Winston Msowoya mfundo mulibe!! Ma post anu onse mukumanena mfundo ziwiri zokha zoti; Mia ndi mu Arabu komanso MCP ndi chipani chakupha. Inetu ndinakuuzani kale kuti Mia ndi mMwalawi mwatchutchu ndi momveka bwino. Ine ndimapanga doubt kwambiri za Halmiton Thom (late Mutharika) ndi matchonawa akuba ndalamawa kuti ndi a Malawi. Anthu amenewa kaya Muluzi matolatola ake anawatenga kuti? Pajanso ndinanena kale chipani cha terror ndi kupha mu demokalase ya Malawi ndi cha DPP, umboni munapatsidwa kale.

    Mukulankhula zoti a Mia akufuna kudya ndalama za boma ndi family yawo ndi azinzawo. Inutu a Msowoya kukhalangati memory imakuvuti kambiritu eti? Ndalama zimene akuba mulomwe wa fake uyu ndi anzake Angulu azadzana mukabineti ndi zingati. Mwayiwala za mbava Chaponda Chimanga (mbava imeneyi akungoyilambalala osachita nayo kanthu) ndi anzinzake amene sanatchulidwe six aja; inetu nde ndikuuzani lero kuti a Mtengo wa Minga ali momo, a Kweni ali momo, a Kondwani ali momo, aja magalasi aakulu muparliament amanyamula chikwama aja alimo ndi ena otero.

  6. Mia you are misguiding who? Your MCP full of blood on its hands,is going nowhere and do not expect the people of Malawi are idiots to vote for an Arab Muslim.MCP will not put an end to corruption and guarantee opportunities for the people of Malawi.You and your friend Chakwera are corrupt champions and notorious opportunists who prey on misguided and politically dead voters.Both of you don’t have vision for our country and what you are fighting for is to enrich yourselves and members of your families,by the way,why can’t you go to your Arab land and help your suffering people there,Southerners are not idiots to vote for MCP which killed and unfairly imprisoned hundreds of its people.Just for your information,2019 MCP will be extirpated once and for all.

  7. Which south is he talking about?maybe in his constituency in chikwawa.but as far as I know,MCP has no room in the south. Anganditsutse ndani?

  8. hungry lion ready to devour sleepy Congress membership of central region. I am washing closely

  9. One of the lessons politicians can learn from history is that they donot learn from history.Chakwera is making the same blunder Joyce Banda made in her choice of runningmate.She thought Gwengwe would convince people in the centre to vote for her.What happened?She flopped miserably.

    Mr Mia stop living in cloud.Just as Gwengwe failed to influence the centre to vote for JB you will also not succeed in making southerners vote for Chakwera.Regionalism is deeply rooted in this country.

  10. Tatsika dpp basi tikukwera MCP with Dr. Chakwera at the helm. We’ll start by giving MCP a parliament seat in the lower shire during the forth coming by elections. Wina afa ndi kadya karfista.

  11. That’s very true Mr. Mia. Malawi is a blessed nation with the coming of a true man of God as President for Malawi. Whenever God chose His leaders for the children of Israel, people prospered and feared God; but when people chose Saul in their ignorance, they perished. Now it’s time we have a child of God as our leader, so we can see the blessings of the Lord. We have seen enough of innocent blood shed, corruption, hunger, blackouts and strikes in this term. May God show us mercy as we allow His child to lead us.
