Forget about ruling Malawi again, Msonda tells MCP

Outspoken  politician Kenneth Msonda, who is also a Member of the ruling Democratic Progressive Party (DPP) has said the main opposition Malawi Congress Party (MCP) will never rule Malawi again.

Msonda: MCP will not return to power in 2019

Msonda was speaking in Ndirande-Makata ward in Blantyre during the official launch of the party’s campaign for the forthcoming by-election slated for October 17, 2017.

“The opposition Malawi Congress Party (MCP) should forget about ruling this country again. Memories are still fresh on how the party mistreated its innocent citizens during their one party regime,

“From 1994 to 2014 general elections, we have seen MCP performing miserably. That is a clear indication that the party has lost ground and will never be voted back into government,” said Msonda.

Taking his turn, DPP’s Southern Region Governor, Charles Mchacha asked scholars and historians in the country to publish many books on atrocities MCP committed during 31 years of its rule.

“We have many kids now who were born after MCP was voted out of government and as such they don’t know how the party ruled Malawi. I am therefore appealing to Chancellor College scholars and historians to write many books on atrocities MCP committed,” said Mchacha.

He said the books would enable the current generation to make wise and informed decision on which party to vote for during elections.

MCP ruled Malawi with an iron fist from 1964 to 1993. It was ousted from government by United Democratic Front (UDF) in the multiparty elections held in 1994.

  1. if i may ask what was the agenda of the meeting? kkkkkkk so much into castigation when the masses need facts and service delivery. Lets wait and see dont say never

  2. Ma sapota a MCP akhala akuuzidwa mu zisankho zones zisanu kuti tiwina! tiwina! tiwina! koma zaka nkumatha wosalowa m’boma. Sizachilendo kuti leronso nyimbo yawo ndiyomweyo ya tiwina. Anzawo anangoyimba nyimboyi kamodzi mu 2014 koma anawinadi kuwasiya a MCP ku opposition konko.

  3. Mr Keen Observer,
    Malawians can run out of patience but changing government will be very difficult. You see, the problem is that we vote on regional lines. A man from Nkando even if he is tortured to the maximum will never opt for Chakwera/MCP to rule. He would rather like APM rule while he is sleeping with hunger than live in Malawi with Chakwera on the top seat. It was the same in 1993 during referendum and 1994 during the first multiparty elections. Despite all evidence about MCP atrocities there were people who still wanted Kamuzu to continue ruling us. So people in the south or any place where DPP is dominant never expect they will turn against APM and vote for Chakwera. When Msonda says MCP will never rule he is not far from the truth. Malawi has conducted 5 elections and in these elections MCP participated in all but could not win. If it failed in the first 2 elections and win the third (2004) at least we would say the party is loved by people. But the party is out of government for 23 years and has no winning formular yet its leaders are going around telling people that they will go into government, how? Winning a bye-election in your stronghold is not an indication that you can win a presidential race. How much support does Chakwera have in the south? How much does APM have in the center? You will agree with me that Chakwera cannot claim to have support in any district in the south while DPP can claim support in NKK, Ntcheu, Salima, and even parts of Lilongwe. The party have MPs in some of these central region districts. You cannot win elections with votes from one region. And if we asses properly we will discover that defections to DPP are more than those to MCP. Msonda is saying the truth whether one likes it or not. You can win a bye-election in your area but not the presidency. You don’t have numbers Mr Chakwera.

  4. Who Is MCP? It is a party that ruled during a one party era of which all the adults in that time, we were part & parcel. Atrocities were not committed by only the executive members. The members from the District, Area & branch were all in the wrong of whom most of them are today the members of either DPP, PP, UDF or AFORD so I don’t know exactly who is a holy cow in Malawi? I’m not a sympathiser of Malawi Congress Party but can we say that things are better now than during MCP rule? The answer will always vary depending on which part of the political divide one belongs. I remember at ZOCASS ( Box 2) we had the likes of the Kadzamiras learning there just proving how good the quality of education was in Schools. Today tell me where do the kids of the ruling elite go? MCP will one day surprise people by coming back to power cos people are running out of patience now.

  7. Ask the family of late Njaunju and Chasowa what about burning office yomwe munali zachisankho what about Chaponda and Zambia maize what about unstandadised roads in Malawi and mind u Malawians now they know that Malawi is not a Kingdom kuti azingotilamula awa amathanyula uyu. Tatopa ife Chakwera ndi Mia 2019 ndi Boma kale.

  8. Kodi chakwera simugona naye tulo etiii …hahhaha a chakwera kumakhala silent choncho aganyu apakamwa achina msonda azipsaa mtima….. 2019 mcp motooo ku buuuuuuu

Ndaona ine Ulemu Msungama kugwetsa a thief Ngwenya, Mnyamata weniweni Sitolo kugwetsa Ganda la nkhunda komanso mfana Gwengwe kudutsa osapikisanaye. Kokoliko kwachaaaaaa

  10. The problem with recycled politicians is that you waste your time talking of other parties. Thats why your parties are failures in all sectors. All parties have commited atrocities in MALAWI including the PANGA party DPP. Stealing money is a big atrocity and this is still happening in DPP, the same DPP has killed Malawians e.g Chasowa, who doesnt know this and the list is endless. Tangodikilani nthawi ikwane kaye ndale zachikunja za DPP tinasiya ife. I envy UDF and MCP

  11. The problem opposition comprises parties whose members are vocal on social media basi. Pitani mmzimu zero. people just know it’s only DPP that is spearheading development in Malawi. This message is sound and clear for the over 80% rural masses. So will MCP and other parties rule Malawi?

    1. is Mchacha learned enough to school us all.how far has he gone with education? If he cant support his own blood brothers how can he stand on a podium castigating others? if his MSCE WAS WRITTEN BY TEACHERS KATIKO AND MALIMA at Benvis pvt Ss who is he to teach us?chamba eeeeti? waiwala mtundu wanu kufuna kulanda ufumu wa a Wilison kwa Mpenda mpaka mtundumwako kuthawa kudzakhala ma refugees pa bvumbwe? KAMBUKU TCHALO WACHEPA SUNGAMAKE.PITA KU MAPANGA SS UKAYAMBIRENSO GELI

  12. Do you really need scholars to write such books? History is already there and Muluzi exposed all this during the time when he campaigned for Bingu. People will not vote along these lines anymore.Whilst people may vote on regional lines, I think their focus besides this will focus on issues that affect their direct everyday lives such as: economy ( low selling prices of agri-commodities, business opportunities for the Youth and women with available capital, availability of electricity 24/7 tor small businesses such as welders, maize mills, hair dressers etc.), improved standard of education, improved health facilities, availability of subsidized fertilizer to many and removal of bribes on the same, rural development such as well graded roads mainly in the villages where vehicles such as ambulances are straggling to reach etc.
    Please, channel your strategies into these areas and ensure people see such improvements.

  13. mu 2019 tikufuna atsogoleri owopa yehova osati omaima pa podium mkuyamba kutukwana azitumiki amulungu ayi ndipo atsogoleri ake ngati achina chakwera oti kuwauza kuti alalikire atha kutero koma enawa nthawi yawo yatha its not monarcy regime ayi zosililana izi

  14. a msonda ndinu adyera mene mwausaukamu mwapita kukadya nawo ndi pitala ndalama zathu za taxpayers basi ku dpp ko ndikumene kuli zifwamba heavy zobisalira ndiye mukunena za mcp panopotu mcp its reformed ka dpp kanuko kanachokera kuti mesa ndiku mcp komweko msonda mwana wopanda ulemu

    1. As an educated fellow, Msonda should have known that MCP and its atrocities is becoming irrelevant each passing elections. We 100% agree that MCP killed us, but mind you, voters in 2019 will comprise those as young as 2001s who don’t care whether we were fed to crocodiles unless directly affected

  15. Indeed memories are still fresh for the brutal murder of Chasowa, Njauju, Maxon Mbendela, Bakuwa and others killed during DPP era. Who can forget and vote for thieves like u? A Nsonda ku DPP mukungofunako kuti mukamwalira akuikeni mu casket inu otherwise mukanapita mu lamphasa.
    2019 MCP BOMAAAAAAA!!! Patsogolo ndi Dr. Lazarous Chakwera!!! Patsogolo ndi Right Hon. Richard Msowoya!!! Patsogolo ndi Hon. Sidik Mia….Patsogolo ndi ena onseeeee akuluakulu amene akuithawa DPP chaka chikubwerachi kulowa MCP.

  16. How stupid Msonda and Mchacha are by cheating the people and themselves that DPP is doing a great job. If they talk about atrocities, memories are just fresh of the gruesome murder of Chasowa, Issa Njauju during the DPP reign. Whether Msonda and his friends like it or not DPP is going to be voted out of power come 2019.

  17. So that was the whole agenda of the rally to tell Malawians that MCP will not rule this country again. Please tell us issues of substance how as a nation we can bell out ourselves of poverty, hunger,disease, ignorance, corruption etc.. We do not want politics that are retrogressive, disjointed and not development oriented.

  18. … and now MCP has new leadership woth new people, yet those who were killing people gone to DPP, likes of Dausi, Mtaba, Bakili Muluzi ndi ena. zayamba kale kuoneka pa infa ya Chasowa, Njaunju, 20July 2011, 6 July 2017, Kalonga Stambuli, Mbendera and the list goes on. anthu amenewa mwapha nthawi yanu a DPP,
    mwatizuza ndi njala chimanga ataba Chaponda, mwaba ndalama zambirimbiri. TIYAMIKA DAUSI NDI ANZAKO POLOWA DPP NKUSIYA MCP ILI YOYERA.

  19. Fotsek!!! Mwasuta wankulu mpana kuyiwala omwe mwapa inuyo..? Njaunju, Chasowa, zili pati? Greed Greed yakupwetekani.

  20. Tikuonelani, simunati… please your masters since they are feeding u well,
    enjoy the limited time you have. MCP MOtoooooooooooo

  21. Malawians shouldn’t be fooled by these outbursts because everyone knows that DPP is desperate. It’s undeniable that MCP inflicted pain to Malawians during its time. But this doesn’t glorify DPP to continue killing innocent people such as Chasowa, Issa Njauju etc. The souls killed during the one party era is similar to those killed in multiparty regime. Come 17 October and 2019 Malawians will decide their destiny with or without these so called history

  22. Useless Msonda and Mchacha. Is it MCP which killed Chasowa, Matafale, 20 July demonstrators, etc. MCP is coming back in 2019 whether you like it or not and your rantings show that you are already panicking

  23. As a youth I will indeed make a wise decision when voting between a reformed MCP that used to kill people 30 years ago and a party that is killing people and stealing public money today.
    Memories of Chasowa, Njauju, Mbendera, 20 people and Judge Bakuwa are very fresh than those 1990s

  24. Uzavote ndiwe???
    Malawi politics, osangonena zanu za DPP ndikumapita without attacking MCP!
    Mawa tizakuonani mukujoina MCP yomweyo itawina 2019.

    1. In fact if there are people who are shameless in Malawi, Msonda is one of the top 5. He used to call the current regime “CLUELESS ” but since he joined the same government he has been castigating, suddenly, the same government has become a star performer ? ! Koma anthufe manyazi adzitigwira pang’ono !
