Goodall says MCP soliciting campaign money from some ‘Amwenye’

April 14, 2018 Judith Moyo -Nyasa Times 32 Comments

Finance, Economic Planning and Development Minister Goodall Gondwe has accused the opposition Malawi Congress Party (MCP)  of soliciting money from some ‘Amwenye’ [Asians] for campaign.

 Gondwe: Malawi needs to be run by Malawians even the skin must be black

Speaking when he opened a meeting of senior DPP officials attended by over 200 party members in the Northern Region at Katoto Secondary School Hall in Mzuzu on Wednesday, Gondwe said MCP is breaking the standard that founding President Kamuzu Banda had not to allow people of other colours to run affairs of Malawi.

He said Malawi, particularly the North, is not for sale, and that votes will not be given because someone has more money.

Said Gondwe: “Even Kamuzu Banda said Malawi needs to be run by Malawians, and even the skin must be black. He said those other people must not even join parties. Was it us who said that? Now they are breaking their own rules, we will just watch them?”

His speech was  welcomed by jubilant supporters in the hall who sang songs rebuking MCP leader Lazarus Chakwera while praising Mutharika as a true and great leader whom the country still needs.

But MCP second deputy secretary general Eisenhower Mkaka said Gondwe should first reveal those who are donating to DPP resources for campaign before pointing fingers at other parties.

Among the notable DPP members at the meeting were secretary general Greselder Jeffrey, her deputy Grace Chiumia, who is also Minister of Civic Education, Culture and Community Development, Attorney General Charles Mhango and North Region governor Kenneth Sanga.

Gondwe’s remarks comes at the background of controversial statement made by Minister of Transport and Public Works, Jappie Mhango,  which were  racist and discriminatory  targeted at MCP aspiring vice-president Muhammad Sidik Mia when he launched Thumbwe Bridge construction project in Chiradzulu.

  2. MCP chipani chanthu onse, kwachaaaaaaaaaa!!!!!!!!!!!! Ife to lookin seeded were,”bomaaaaaaaaa!!!!!!

  3. Nganya uyu watondeka chomene. Look at his bizarre look in the picture. Kamuzu was an old man but not very useless at the age of Goodall and Pitala. This old man has already forgotten that the court in Zomba told dpp to negotiate with NGOs on how dpp should pay back K13 million they stole from parastals. They have forgotten that they campaign disguising that they are doing development rallies. Please mind your dpp business and deal with the chindindi brought by Callista and Winiko. Kamuzu was never as silly as you two old guys. Mukuyendera ndodo ndi mmutu momwe. Kuwina mukutondeka. Kuyenda mukutondeka. Kuganoza mukutondeka. Go and rest please.

  4. Badall old age aside you are not even a good politician. How do you encourage racism and hope to be elected? What does this say for your party. Aren’t APM s grandchildren of color? Mwanyoza a president anu.

  7. Goodall this is racism at its worst!! Your message is loud and clear……………………. I for one knows that you are targeting Sidik Mia and you are not happy with his support to MCP.

    Secondly this is why I personally have been saying the current crop of MCP leadership have nothing against whatever was happening kumbuyoku or during Kamuzu’s time. Yes while we may agree that Kamuzu, Dausi, Ntaba, Musa, Kutsaila, Gondwe, etc did more harm on Malawians in the name of MCP, the current team is a new group and has nobody in its NEC from old MCP. All the senior members of the cruel MCP are now in DPP and that is why they are failing to stop practicing evil acts on others. Onani zimene akunena Goodall, he is till living in the past and wants to be ill treating others yet is claiming that his party is democratic. Shame on you…………………………!

    MCP can never do what you are saying Goodall because its a different group………………………… tikudziwa you love ill-treating others and your statement testifies a lot on your feelings towards people of colour? Chindere chakufikapo chomene…………………………..!! Ndiye mkumati government is for adults? Mxiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii

  8. Goodall Gondwe mwasowa nkhani ,chipani cha MCP ndi anthu onse amwenye, akuda azungu, makaladi komanso ma ambasada onse ndi a MCP , mumuwuze APM kuti amwenye MCP yakomera kwambiri.

  10. Foolish talk from an old man run out of ideas. Who told you that Malawi is only for you, black Africans? You need to be taught the definition of a Citizen honourable “mkhungu” minister of finance. A party can solicit money from anybody as long as they are legal means of obtaining the cash.

    Can you tell us how your theaving party obtains it’s financial resources? Those who were applauding you for this silly speech are themselves empty tins, listening legends from an old and outdated elder.

    MUKUZUZGIKA WAKA WA BAADAAL. COME 2019 MULUZENGESO VISANKHO.

  11. It is better to ask for alms from Indians that steal from poor Malawians. On Fridays we see poor Malawians in single files asking for alms from Indian shopkeepers because Gondwe cant give them anything. Ever since Indians have a played a part in financing political parties in Malawi. Ask Bakili, Ntaba and Joyce Banda. So palibe nkhani apa. How many times have we heard DPP asking Asians to donate to the Party. Gondwe please go home.

  12. Abale awa akalambadi akapume. Amewenye ndi Bisnowaty akusiyana pati? Tonse ndi a Malawi sibwino kumasankhana.

  15. is Chilima black or coloured? What is the fancy here? A Gondwe is indeed now too old – just talking about Kamuzu basi – history. Gogo ndizo akonda KKKKKKKKKKK!

  16. So who cares?

    I would worry if MCP was solisting money from district councils, and other govt bodies just like the DPP blue night does……

  17. A Goodall tayankhulan za nzeru komaso zoveka nkona tikunena kuti mwakalambadi sikoyenela kukhalaso nduna tsopano…imeneyi ikhale nkhan zoona??

  19. This old man should just die. He has sppmged us enough

    His party solicits money from cashgate.

  20. What is wrong with that?Which one is better by soliciting money from Asians and stealing money from the Government for your DPP campaigns?This money is really old and he does not know what is talking about

  21. Hahahaha. This old man. Go and rest man. Your grand children need someone like you to tell them stories about kalulu ndi anzake. You need to rest man. You done your part. Rest Mr Gondwe.

  22. DPP yathadi ndithu. Mwasoa zokamba a Goodall Gondwe. Chipani ichi chathadi eti? Nde chatha msangatu, from 2005 to 2018 basi….zaka 13 basi? Koma nde kuyalukatu. MCP 2019 Boma!!!!!!!!

  24. Ooooh God please please Remove the scales of blindness from the eyes of my fellow MALAWIANS so that we can see that BUSHIRI IS the only Answer to the hardships the country is facing

    Otherwise We will regret like never before in human history

    PLEASE PAC CHIEFS CHURCH LEADERS INVITE BUSHIRI COME AND HELP GOVERN THE COUNTRY AS WAS THE CAUSE WITH KAMUZU

    THE FUTURE OF OUR AND THE LESS PRIVILEGED IS NOW

    MAY GOD BLESS OUR LAND !

  25. it is very unfortunate that Goodall has made this remark. such a racist remark in this day and age.. maybe it confirms our fear that these people are old and should not be part of modern politics..

  26. I think the minister Gondwe has only showed his age in all this accusations.
    Retarded and backward . Kamuzu was never understood by many including him though that he was a bit older to understand.
    Racism and Hate have no place in democratic nation. I feel sorry for him. THE MAN IS OLD AND USED UP NOTHING OF ANY KIND OF WITS IS REMAINING IN HIS HEAD.

  27. No No No minister Gondwe. Issues of skin colour do not define Malawians and no where in the supreme statute of the land is colour used to define Malawians. . For God sake why can’t you stop this racial crusade nonsense. This is exactly why we are saying age is a matter of grave concern to us. How different are you Goodall, Jhappi and DPP government as a whole from Donald Trump : the guy your government and africa as a whole bashed for calling african and Caribbean countries shitholes?. Yesterday it was you describing youth leaders as babies and today this racial slur. Seriously, we have a big problem before us. It’s very unfortunate that a whole cabinet minister would make such an unfortunate remark . This only happens in DPP government with peter mutharika as president where cabinet ministers can make racial remarks and still remain ministers. I call upon all well meaning Malawians, churches , CSO , DPs and the general public to rise up against this racial vice. This cannot be tolerated. . God have mercy on us.

  29. The old goat gloating nonsense again,so you agree that this is the new MCP it has no problem with skin colour …You are old enough to remember Mr Suite and old enough to know that he didn’t look like you but he was MCP .Gogo wa utesi uyu,retire you are too old
