I remain loyal to DPP and President Mutharika – Henry Mussa

Minister of Industry, Trade and Tourism Henry Mussa has described as  “unfortunate lies” that he is backing Vice-President Saulosi Chilima and his United Transformation Movement (UTM), saying he remains loyal to the Democratic Progressive Party (DPP) and President Peter Mutharika.

There have been reports on social media that Mussa is one of the Cabinet ministers and top DPP officials who are supporting UTM behind the scenes.

But Mussa said the rumours are being spread by people with a vendetta to tarnish his image.

“Nothing could be further from the truth. I am loyal to DPP and President Mutharika,” asserted Mussa.

Mussa, who was treasurer general of DPP and lost the vice presidency (south) at the recent convention, suspect a political ploy to bring a wedge between him and President Mutharika.

Recently, in a leaked audio between DPP secretary general Gresedler Jeffrey and party vice president Kondwani Nankhumwa, it was heard from Jeffrey that Mussa could not be trusted and that he could belong to Chilima’s movement.

But Mussa sounded bitter and said: “I have listened to the conversation and what the SG is saying about me is utter nonsense and childish. I don’t know what she is talking about. My loyalty is to President Mutharika and the party, no one else.

“My conscious is clear. It is very unfortunate that a senior member like her would stoop so low to discuss something about me which is not true. This is nonsense and childish and I demand an apology from her.”

Mussa said it would have been something else if it were President Peter Mutharika questioning his loyalty.

“How can she talk about me like that? Where was she when I was sleeping on the floor with President Mutharika in a cell in Lilongwe?” he queried.

Prior to the DPP convention, Mussa was attacked by DPP thugs.

But how can SKC be serious about draining the swamp when he is going to be accepting people from the swamp? Doesn’t the movement using money from corruption also taint its image. Lets use money we know people got by being honest citizens. Masangwi and Ngalande yet they are the bandleaders of the movement. The movement is supposed to say I am sorry sir, can’t have people like you in my camp. SKC as a successful MD, should act like one. Not everyone who wanted to work for Airtel got a job with Airtel.

Mussa’s loyalty should be to God and Country. No-one else. He is an untrustworthy, myopic, dubious, self-centered, sly, slippery character. An Expert at manipulating Presidents to appoint him in their cabinets. One needs to be very careful with him.
