Unfortunately Manganya can’t win against Nankhumwa,,, next,,,
Congratulations my old good freind
The moment you hear the name Mhango you know kuti adra has gone to tumbukas. Azingolembana ntchito akumpoto okhaokha.
Komatu CEO ndi Jabulani Lacha.
Clear illustration that his PhD by correspondence is not worth it. Foolish move. Two years from now this man will be so poor he will be begging to join DPP, mark my words
inu kodi mwabadwa lero.Mmoyo mwanu munasiya zofunikira kwambiri zingati.Manganya wapanga chisakho same as you.wodya zake alibe mulandu
Bwana Manganya, pochita resign Ku ADRA nkhani yake yomweija yoti m’manyengera Akazi mymu office? Mmmmmmm koma nanu munawonjeza eshiii, wakuyalutsanitu Gladys Phiri kkkkkkk ndiye mukuona ngati Ku ndaleku ndiye kothawira hahahaha uku ndiye muyalukako zenizeni ……mapeto ake mutha ngati makatani
Adra under Manganya was dying,the guy is clueless,only his cuningness saves his face. 2019 polls will expose him. Now with the new guy at the helm,I think he will reverse this bad trend of retrenching staff every year.I hope Manganya will let Adra go its way by not disguising as a consultatant to continue milking this church org.
What did Nankhumwa have before he joined politics? Not even a certificate. Bvuto la a Malawi ndilimenelo. Munthu walemera chifukwa chokuberani basi mwayamba kumuopa. No one owns a constituency let alone the country. Remember Nankhumwa is not first MP for Mulanje Central and he will never be the last or Wamuyaya. This is why dziko silikutukuka. Mumafuna anthu ayambe ndale chifukwa choti osauka olo akubvutika. ( You won’t people to join politics because they don’t have a good job or akubvutika.
I respect Mr Ussi big time. By resigning from his lucrative position he has taught us one big lesson that money is not all that matters in life. One can still go on without working for money. If you think he has goofed big time then you will be in for more surprises. On challenging Nankhumwa, that is also another daring move which only those believes that nothing is impossible in this world, after all Nankhumwa is not the first heavy weight in the political arena. There were others, the likes of Brown Mpinganjira, Ken Lipenga, and many others. But what happened to them everyone knows. Anyone is capable of anything so don’t underestimate him!!!
So what news here? Kodi tonse tikapanga resign tizikuwuzani muzitilemba?
The house that Manganya built.
congratulations breatheren lacha
Mmm Manganya will regret his decision. He will appreciate the ugly face of politics. Sikake 21 May…just wait.
Manganya, you will cry fwee! for your job. I took you as a clever and intelligent person who could stay on your job until retirement then you could try politics. People were happy with you when you could oppose the government through your drama but this was not a guarantee that people can vote you as a leader. You are way far from being an attractive leader who people can rely on. Just wait, whether in my presence or absence you will come to agree with me that this mess will lead you into total poverty and not you alone but Arafat Hamdan (Saulos Claus Chilima) too.
Game over for Manganya, his big salary from ADRA is gone, he will never represent people from Mulanje central in parliament because Nankhumwa will take it all. His Chilima and bus company will be far from taking government, lose lose for him. Ukaziputa limba nazo.
Manganya can not compete with Hon. Nankhumwa.He is just wasting his time and money.He can not bring anything new in the area.Just stay on stage to earn your living.Zinazi ndi za ma Big mwachepa nazo.
Ndiye mukumupopatu Nankhumwa… Mukhumudwa…
Don’t operate in absolutes brother. Things can change. Life is full of surprises. Who knew Mr Brown Mpinganjira would not be an MP today. Mark my words.
Dr Usi is not a stupid person. He is quite comfortable money-wise. When he quit ADRA, he knew that he would not be needing any salary from anybody.
Wodya zake alibe mlandu!
Bodza. The guy is a stupid fool. Same like Arafat Hamdan. One can’t rely on rigging alone to win. No structures. Look at what happened in the staged shambolic primaries? Do you think this United Transport of Malawi can be a force to recon with? Even any careless lecturer will give a candidate a zero in advance if such a candidate says, Sir, I won’t study for your subject but I will pass because I will cheat!
Come on, did anyone say Usi is stupid? Whether he has money or not its none of our concern. What we know is he is craving for taxpayers money come 2019. If it wasn’t that he could as well start building schools, hospitals, roads etc with his money without involving himself in politics. But it is clear he is restless to join the bandwagon of those who eat taxpayers money. And the truth is, he has taken a wrong turn.
