Lucius Banda repositions with MCP: Performs at Tambala Night fundraiser

Musician and former leader of United Democratic Front (UDF) in Parliament, Lucius Banda on Friday performed at Tambala Night, a fundraising event of opposition Malawi Congress Party (MCP), fuelling reports that he is repositioning himself with the party.

The Balaka North Member of Parliament broke ranks with UDF leadership when he snubbed the party to relocate to government benches in parliament.

Known as ‘Soldier of the Poor’, Banda feels the country is facing a myriad of problems that need formidable opposition to Democratic Progressive Party (DPP) rule.

But Lucius said people should not read too much to his performing at the Tambala Night.

“I am a musician and can perform at any event if I am hired. As a politician, I have a party, that is UDF,” he said.

Lucius  donated K50 000 to MCP at the fundraising event.

Lucius shot to popularity with his music when he sang songs which were critical to MCP’s one-party dictatorship.

I always new Lucius was a serious thinking man with the welffare of Malawi at his heart. Can you imagine? Lucius victimised by DPP, wins under UDF ticket, being expected by Atupele to align with DPP. No way. DPP, UDF and PP are thieves. The only hope is to assist MCP and thiis is a wise move. All the best!

Is this some machinations by the Yellow party and Nyasatimes? For your own information this is not the first time Lucius Banda has been billed for a Tambala Night. He first did this in April/May 2009. He is paid for coming to entertain patrons. Perhaps this goes on to show how shall thinking continues to grip on Malawians.
