We are very pathetic Malawians. The fact that well behaved people are trying to make us refrain from this kind of writting that is encouranging tribalism, some who are born tribalistic are still writting such things and misleading many to become tribalistic again. This is bad. Jaunalists write to make news but its bad. Let you know as far as you keep on writting this way tribalism will never end and voting will remain the same…let us change please…learn to write that will unite Malawi.

People like Kasakula are hypocrites – the central region is the one that is tribalistic. 50+1 will not solve our problems. The people advocating for the reforms are simply myopic. Our country cannot affors two elections. For the first time, I DO NOT agree with PAC and my Roman Catholic church. Let them SHUT UP!

1999 election Results

Bakili Muluzi UDF = 2,442,685 (52.34)

Gwanda Chakwamba Aford/MCP alliance = 2,106,790 (45.21%)

Kamlepo Kaluba= 67,856 (1.45%)

Daniel Nkhumbwe Congress for National Unity = 24,349 (0.52%)

Bingu WA Mutharika UP = 22,064 (0.47%)

Invalid = 80,021

Despite Muluzi winning by 52%, north and central were dissatisfied. Our problems are beyond electoral reforms.

If regionalism exist in Malawi then I would say that Chewas are the only silly tribe that votes for leaders from other regions than voting for one of their own. Lomwes are not that many in Malawi when compared to Chewas and their splinter group the Mang’anjas ……..they are indeed a formidable force to be reckoned with as far as regionalism is concerned. What the Chewas should do if indeed regionalism is hurting them, they should come together and do exactly the same as the other tribes being accused of regionalism here are doing. The problem is that Chewas including… Read more »

DPP will dismally be shown an exit blow in 2019. Thats the power of the ballot. Its a gun every malawian hold in their arsenal to get rid of cronyism, tribalism & nepotism in running govt affairs.

It is good that Kasakula knows that Malawians vote on regional lines. This is why his Chewa tribe votes for MCP because the party originates from the centre. Has Kasakula once asked his Chewa tribesmen why they did not overwhelmingly vote for Bingu in 2009 despite all those goodies in the central region? So Kasakula has come to his senses and has discovered that with the current system of voting the DPP will not be booted out of power because the Lhomwes are a majority? But Kasakula should know that even the central region have people who give DPP winning… Read more »

I have never seen a dull person like iwe amakuti satana iwe, why then dpp is sitting on the 50 + 1 if you know Chakwera cannot win? And where in the world a sane person always backs corruption? It is you Santana who is very insane and always backup anything dpp does, even atiti akubibireni mkamwa a dpp mukhonza kuvomera because you are chalked ndi cashgate. Let real Malawians express real feelings, dpp is torture, evil and cunning. Dpp is a bunch of thieves

Tribalistic and nepotistic reasoning from a fool who doesn’t know that Malawi is funded by our taxes. Lunatics like Santana do NOT have a place in modern Malawi….what with all these inter-marriages? We know of Tumbukas who have married your Lhomwe sisters, what does that make their children? Usatinyase ndi primitive thinking yakoyo! In any case, who told you that your DPP won in 2014? Why do you burn ballot boxes each time there is a need to recount? Msungama? etc……. 50+1 is NOT for MCP or Kasakula and get it through your nepotistic, tea-plucking, gondolosi-smelling face!

Who told you Lomwes are in Majority. Get statistics right! Mbuli yachabechabe.

You haven’t gotten what the article is addressing. You are brain washed with Kalongonda

Just a matter of correction: Lomwes do not form the Majority in Malawi. In fact, Lomwes are not the largest tribe in the South-Eastern region (Mulanje, Thyolo, Phalombe, Chiradzulo). The Mang’anja of Chewa ethnic group through Lundu, are in majority. The formation of Mlakho wa Alomwe and the controversial appointment of Ngolingoliwa as Paramount Chief has put Lomwes in limelight (and this was Bingu’s political strategy) and created the impression that everybody in that region is Lomwe. This is statistically and historically wrong and heretical. It is when the sit of power moves out of Thyolo that the true size… Read more »

Primitive people like satanas still believe that in the 21st century voting should still be based on regional, tribal lines. Such embiciles have even the audacity to bragging about SUCH. Very unfortunate indeed. No wonder ka dziko kali pa umphawi wazaoneni. Dziko lotembeledwa.
Point of correction, other tribes have voted for you lomwes. Anzanu amavota zoti zithandize dziko osangovota ngati mbuli ati poti awa ndi ambuye.

How many countries in the world use 50+1 ballot system? Even with first past the ballot, MCP cannot beat DPP as bad as it is, the problem is MCP not the voting system. Even 50+1 DPP will win MCP is a waste of space.

Unless okavota ndinu a Beni Phiri ndi akazi anu okha MCP singawine koma ngati ovota ndi a Malawi ndiye MCP is winning mufune musafune, no sane Malawian can go for dpp this time around and if MCP is a waste of space then Dpp is a nightmare, a bunch of useless and corrupt snails .

The law is not for MCP. Its for the country. All of us will use it in future. Even DPP cannot win with 50+1. Never! Remember, Pete got just a mere 36% in 2014. Even mayeso a Primary 36% ndiye kuti walephela

Do we still need to be ruled by unpopular leaders? Never!
