September 7, 2020 Zawadi Chilunga - Nyasa Times 33 Comments

The Democratic Progressive Party (DPP) has appointed its vice-president (East) Bright Msaka SC to head a special functional review committee to champion reforms as the part seeks renewal and rebuilding for the next general elections.

Msaka:  Heading the committee on party reforms

DPP spokesperson Brown Mpinganjira said the Msaka-led committee will be reviewing party structures, functions and activities.

Other members if the committee include party’s administrative secretary Francis Mphepo, Chiradzulu South legislator Joseph Mwanamvekha and Chikwawa North legislator Owen Chomanika.

“The committee has been given 30 days to present its findings and recommendations to the central committee following which the party will convene a meeting of the National Governing Council (NGC) to consider the recommendations,” said Mpinganjira.

DPP lost the June 23 Fresh Presidential Elections to President Lazarus Chakwera who partnered Vice-President Saulos Chilima of UTM Party on the presidential ticket.

The party is working on a succession plan for its leader Peter Mutharika following his defeat in the June 23 election.

  2. That is the way to go DPP. As you prepare having a thorough audit of your recent performance in the previous election, bear in mind to come up with a formidable winning team which can withstand all the pressure as noticed lately by would be distractors. Whosoever barks to try and discourage your plans, it will simply mean they are scared and jittery of the outcome. Don’t mind them because if you react, that is exactly what they are looking forward to. Be focused and resolution to achieving your aims and objectives. You might have seen the weaknesses, shortfalls and discrepancies already in the past 2 – 3 months gone that there isn’t much one can think of writing home about. Bring to the fore new blood to maintain the DPP heart-beat, which of course will be mentored by the ably and experienced wisdom of the old guard, whose sole duties should mostly become advisory. As government in waiting, show the world what a responsible opposition is worth by opposing responsibly with factual, tangible and practical arguments. Previously we learnt to live with an opposition that was bent to oppose anything even when you reminded them the name of their party they would still start by opposing then come to terms with realities after displaying their myopic tendencies. Yeah!! go all the way and show them the other side of civilised politics as nurtured by APM, the genuine democratic.

  3. 5 years ndi patali,ena mufa,ena akumangani eg Mpinganjira FDH,Ben Jerusalem wakusiyan,who will sponcer your shit meeting?

  4. If you DPP lost the election with all the stolen money you had, you will NEVER rule again, you are so fragmented, there are too many factions, everybody was stealing to enrich themselves but not support the party

  6. So the committee ONLY involves old tired men mostly from the lomwe belt?? You don’t value women’s contributions?

  7. Dpp should not waste time on reviews or trying to see where things went wrong its a waste of time and running away from reality. You have three things to fix, nepotism, corruption and Dpp leader(president). This is Free advice guys. Go back to your bosses and tell them it’s us we need to fix, so don’t send us anywhere or focus on some other things not relevant to our crisis or loss.

  8. So inu a Tonse you are justified to pick anthu a ku retirement…becsuse its Tonse..
    DPP strategies are not yours..leave them alone. If they flop..it may not be your business

    1. Za bodza zimenezo kulira kumeneko, dpp sidzabweranso angakhale mutani mutani. Anthu auba inu a lhomwe.Mulibe zochita. Kupita ku school ya kuba basi. We are in the Government MUNYA.

  10. dpp inapita ndi mvula ya nkoka lupsa.
    panopa akungotibwa mmaso. balambilana ndi kupembedza namagweluyo.kkkkkk hahahahaha

  11. Who has appointed them? Mphepo is one of the DPP problems and you expect him to sort himself? All the people who were too close to APM were problems. Ben Phiri, Mphepo,Chisale ndi Rango

  12. Another quality mistake from DPP. Is the review for the Southern region only? Any committee set up by DPP after its loss is composed of Southerners only, why? Has DPP done away with its members from the North and Central regions? Instead of learning the badness of regionalism you still embrace it and hope to win future elections? Mphepo is just a fossil. There is no soul in him. Actually he is the Sanctum of evil in DPP.

    1. The problem is the Tumbukas for assisting Dpp building Southern region and yet they fail in their home Area. Leave them and show them Nyenkhwe. They should help us putting up mansions and lacking developing Mzuzu only built rubbish buildings.

  13. Tundalamato tikalipo nchifukwa mukupanga matukutuku. Tukatha mumwazikanapo apa… 2025 ndilero? Review? Yachani?

  15. DPP is not serious! Doesnt Mphepo have anything else to do? Let the youth lead these processes! What is the retirement age in DPP?

      1. Some of these things are not issues at all. Go to Israel and tell me how many youths are involved. Go to the USA and tell me how many youths. Go to any developed country, whose economy is somehow stable, and tell me how many youths are there. I am not DPP and I am not a subscriber to any of the political parties, but truth be told; it’s not about the age issue, it’s about the expertise and ability to achieve a desired end. I am also shocked, and extremely shocked, that the likes of Francis Mphepo, not because of his age, but because I have not appreciated his so called political expertise, have been included in the committee. Appeasement policy is killing parties and the nation. Choose people on merit, young, old, male, female, etc, and we will experience meaningful results in all that we do! DPP, think twice or thrice on the appointments.
