I’m not God to know everything – Chakwera
Malawi Congress Party (MCP) presidential candidate Lazarus Chakwera defended himself why he did not know some things in his petition case for the May 21 presidential elections , saying it is only God who knows everything.
Chakwera, giving testimony under cross-examination, was pinned by ttorney General (AG) Kelekeni Kaphale, who is representing the Malawi Electoral Commission (MEC), on why as a leader of the major party he did not know some things in his own petition.
The Attorney General dismissed Chakwera as a witness lacking knowledge of both the law, the contents of his own petition and election process.
But Chakwera, a former church cleric, said in his phoney American accent: “It is only God who knows everything. I am not God to know everything.”
On several occasions Chakwera said his witnesses will “demonstrate” to court the alleged irregularities.
Nonetheless, Chakwera outlined his main arguments on the various contentious issues under dispute, telling the court that he is challenging the validity of the results based on the use of 176 tally sheets which had correction fluid (Tippex) on it, the use of 70 duplicate sheets instead of originals and some 634 manually altered tally sheets.
This, Chakwera told the court, constituted some one million of the votes officially tallied and occurred in 78 out of 193 constituencies across the country.
The MCP president argued that such an occurrence could not be ignored as a coincidence or legitimate forced errors, saying these actions constituted irregularities contrary to both the law and processes of the law as announced to the parties by the electoral body, but also in its published manuals.
Chakwera , alongside UTM presidential candidate Saulos Chilima, is disputing the narrow re-election of incumbent President and Democratic Progressive Party (DPP) Peter Mutharika, at the Constitutional Court.
So far Chakwera has faced set-backs as the court could not allow him to insert documents which were inadvertently omitted in the sworn statements of Peter Lackson, Daud Suleman, Anthony Bendulo and legislator Eisenhower Mkaka.
The five-judge panel, through Justice Mike Tembo, rejected the application by his lawyer, agreeing with lawyers representing President Peter Mutharika and Malawi Electoral Commission (MEC) that it would mean bringing new evidence.
The case has since been adjourned to September 30, when it will resume for another three weeks—to October 18.
When it resumes on September 30, lawyers for Mutharika will start cross-examining Chakwera, before other MCP witnesses step in the witness stand.

Chakwera wamuphinza Kaphale amene amdziyetsa dolo.
First, he said there was no FRAUD but IRREGULARITIES. Second, he indicated not having knowledge of his own 14 page petition. And Going by the court proceedings Chakwera has no case. It’s a shame to our MCP camp, honestly am disappointed. Can we strategize who should be our next candidate uyu atitayisa nthawi. He failed to manage a church, has failed to mange a party (so many break aways) can he manage a country????🤷🏼♂️
Well managed church ever during his term of office. OSANYOZA!!!!
Chimbuzi cha munthu chakwera umafuna uziasokoneza anthu osazindikira Malawi muno ziyankha zanzeru osati za mamina zakozo uzipanga ndi chinkazako mbuzi iwe.
You do not know that rigging will be demonstrated in court. Rigging was done in figures and these figures will be displayed in courts to shame Jane Madando and Mr Muthalika wowoladzanja uja. Do not think this small Kaphale kapena kuti Tiphale tsopano apologized four times before the court because of loss of direction. He has completely lost direction and this case is won already.
Social media judges.

Kadzanja, thank you for reminding Malawians that they once fought for multipartyism but you forgot to tell Malawians the party they were fighting against to have the multipartyism.

Yona, though shall not mention the name in vain. He is the same one you run away from and are now bringing Him in vain with your vanity fake accent….are you not ashamed? This court case is about one greedy fake accent ex-reverend Nyolonyo Yona Lazarus Chakwera and his new found equally greedy buddy Arafat. Nothing to do with name you mention in vain.
APM stupid fool of rigging, professor who can communicate. Adanyanya kuthawila ku America Bingu atamulangiza ngati minister of education stupid professor.. akuyenda chozemba mu Lilongwe akuthawa .
SOME OLD PEOPLE ARE STUPID, BECAUSE WHEN THEY WERE YOUNG THEY WERE STUPID. HE IS LUCKY HE HAD CHANCE TO BE IN USA BY THE HELP OF ROMAN CATHOLIC, WHEN HE CLAIMED ASYLUM.

Join the discussion…you are so stupid tha you don’t know that you are stupid
Dr. Chakwera , please don’t metion the name of God here, He can not answer questions on your behave because you abandoned the pulpit for politics. Go back to the pulpit so that you can start baptizing the children of God. Mulungu akuti munda wakula antchito ndiopelewera. Mukutchula dzina la Mulungu yemwe munamuthawa uja lero chifukwa zayamba kukuvutani. Ndinu m’busa waboza bwana. Lapani nthawi yatha iyi.
so you want the AG to consult God on your petition ….. rubbish
Bwana Chakwera, no one is asking you to know everything. In court you are not being asked about nuclear science, bio medicine or quantum physic. You are simply being asked to know facts about the electoral process in Malawi of 2019 which you are claiming was irregular. You should at least have done thorough homework on this one subject before you went to court.
Feeling sorry for chakwela…nsogoleli amasankha ndi mulungu
Tippex is not mulungu!
But tippex did not affect the valid votes. Or tippex was not used with an ill intention. This is what I have learned from the court hearing.
Like Chilima, Chakwera is losing direction – he has no evidence of rigging. Sorry Mtambo and Trapence.
Koma ndiye zavuta zedi. Abusa kulephera kuyankha mafunso.
Chakwela, how does God come in here? Who wrote the petition? Iweyo izitchula za Mtambo, Tranpence ndi Chilima amene ali anzako. Mulungu unasiyana naye. If you want to back to God just repent that is the only way.
Yes Chakwera you are not God , even know this God knows that APM wins but you don’t know
“I am not God that I know everything” kkk!! It totally shows Chakwera’s evidence was doctored by his lawyers.Failing to elaborate his own orchestrated work kkk!!He thought is would be a sail journey for populous MCP candidate.We are not and will never be MCP.Sidick Mia have regretted heavily for have lost his property supporting MCP hoping would take the mantle and then recover all his gifts to MCP.Yona Chakwera is cursed by GOD kkk.If heas in politics and then goes to church would be a brilliant idea kkk!!!Chakwera an object of mockery now kkkk
Osamasewera ndi APM. Amene aja ndi machine a ndege. Si ma saizi anu. Anyamata okulira kudambwe mwachepa
APM wanuyo is using our tax money, udolo uli pati. Infact he is a coward. Where was he when Malawians fought for martiparty system in 1993. Malawianswho who fought are real machine a ndege mukunenawo, not this regime, full of mbava zokhazokha. The problem in Malawi is that once you are brain washed, no matter what, those you support become gods and sacred. Kaya iwe ukubvutika, you say palibe kanthu bola awowo akulamula, that’s backward thinking which will affect generations to come.
go to court to prove this
thus what you are, brain washed
Chakwera ukumva bwanji mthupimo?
kkkkkk!! YANO m’mimba mwa chinsomba akubwebweta kkkkk!!!! Yona, Yona Chakwera usathawe iwe Mulungu sathawika amapezeka pena pali ponse – Yes it is God who knows everything and surely he knows that you have left his job which he commissioned unto you. Please go back to your first calling and GOD will restore you PEACE forever.
THE ONE ASKING —-DOES HE /SHE KNOW EVERYTHING ?
Chakwera the hopeful leader for Malawi, even Kalekeni Kaphale knows best. Chakwera won the elections and everybody knows this truth. Justice will prevail soon, freedom is coming tomorrow
Mbuzi iwee ukuti chiyani yapaa!!Inenso ndinavotera Pitala mmesa manambala ovotera akusiyana.Inu mulipo ochepa ife tinayesetsa kuchulukilapo kkk.Chakwera saanawine ma elections the cross examination is telling itself kkk!!Look at your Idiot Chakwera even kuposedwa ndiChilima kuyankha mafunso kkk!!Mbwerera zokhazokha.
Nkhalamba yopanda mano ija? A Gay in disguise.
Why would an objective journalist write “..in his phony American accent”? I really don’t care much about Chakwera and I believe he’s as corrupt as the rest of our politicians, but the journalistic standards are really going to the dogs.
They are paid embiciles my dear. Take them seriously at your own peril.
So want him to write porn American sex for Chakwera
because he was not audible enough in the courtroom despite being reminded of that. when its your accent you would speak freely and audible enough, unlike chakwera who seemed to force himself to speak in that american accent with difficulties
Its Kaphale who came out stupid at the end of the day. Unlike Chilima, Chakwera did not swear any affidavit to warrant such kind of myopic questioning. Even if he knew all the answers, which he did, there was no point for him to divulge into other witnesses stories. So cadets, study the law and you will realise that Chakwera actually outgunned your AG by far.
Then you are a goat indeed kkk.Do you follow issues or you just follow MCP kkk.Take another turn my friend.Chakwera and his lawyers are proving failures.Its Chakwera who appeared stupid kkk.You will commit suicide then kkkk
Just noted the most stupid person ever to be created. A waste of oxygen being yourself
Kkkkkkkkk rev chakwera is very funny …..God didn’t sign your petition just prove your case. And none of your witnesses were monitors, usova. Indeed you are not God, coz you are the devil
Mwagwa nayo game a MCP. APM is a lawyer. Amangokuyanganani mukupanga mtsete zanu zija. Pano mwawadziwa akulu. Chilima wathawa kale, Manganya wazimilira naye. Mumva madzi agaru inu. APM WOYEEEERRRDDD
Kkkkkkk, osaiziwa thesis yolemba yekha. Supervisor wake sanamuthandize!
Wakumana nazo, amaona ngati ku khothi kolankhulira madzala mphuno
Kkkkkk koma chakwera wabalalikadi etiii mpaka am not God to know everything but it’s your game.kkkk anthu anyau
Fake Accent Ex-reverend Yona Lazarus Chakwera is such a fool to drag the Almighty into his stupid petition. His petition is only 14 pages and does not know everything in it? What a dull leader of EMUSIPI.
Let’s wait for the truth,coz tippex was indeed illegally used,duplicates instead of originals were used without explanation.kkkkk ti votanso.
Which truth are you talking about here when he does not know anything? A voice of a dying horse.
