Speaker of Parliament Richard Msowoya has appealed to Malawians not to clap hands for politicians linked to corruption. He said...
Iwe Fed opanda nzeru ndi president wakoyo Mr. Ibu. A dunderhead like him for a state president is just a waste of time. He claims to have lived in America with civilized type of democracy and yet he can not set such an example for people to appreciate that he indeed lived in America. He’s banking on his tribe the lomwe that he’ll win because he thinks MCP can not penetrate the south. Mukunama, MCP has now followers in Nsanje, Chikwawa, BT, Zomba Machinga, Mangochi and BK. You’ll be disappointed when MCP amasses the big numbers of votes from these… Read more »
Much as I would love the electoral reform bill to be tabled in parliament , I don’t want this to be done in response to what the donors wish. I strongly feel that this is selling our Independence we fought for.Why should we we continue dancing to the tune of the so called Donors? I’m actually offended by a statement that say “And the donors have stressed that they expect the newly opened parliament to deliberate on electoral reforms”
This is no longer a flagship newspaper. It has been overtaken by political activists and MCP operatives masquerading as journalists. Time will tell.
It is without a doubt the intentions of George Kasakula an avid and reknown MCP apologists is to stoke fires against the DPP government and forment public anger against the Mutharika administration. His lapdog newspaper the Daily Times comes in handy in this agenda as can be seen by the numerous anti-government programmes guised as public forums/discussions to hold government to account when the intentions are to whip anti-government sentiments amongst the citizenry. The issue of electoral reforms the Daily Times is speaking about is something which Kasakula’s party the Malawi Congress Party can ably table in parliament and when… Read more »
U don’t need 50+1 to remove this president. Even the current status quo will see him out. Change laws to benefit the country not to target the current leadership. Am just a new political analysts.
What status quo can remove DPP? People get drunk from a small win like the recent by-elections and think DPP is on the backfoot. Far from it! If anything those bye-elections have only emboldened the DPP and give them between now and election time DPP will be on the rebound. If there is any party that schemes night and day in the Malawian political landscape then its the DPP. Wait and you will see. Only time shall tell.
They have gone where even the devil fears to go. Will take them by the horns. Lying in parliament is shameful
Bvuto lomwe lidzakupheni anthu inu ndi Phuma. Mumachita Phuma pa zinthu zosafunika kukangalika. Kodi Bill muikamba apayi, kufunika kwache koichitira Phuma chonchiku nkotani? Be patient and let time pass you shall hear it being tabled so long as it is ready. Referendum, referendum mupangitse ndi inuyo a times? Do you even know the cost for the referendum? Don’t politicize everything that comes in our way. We are not happy chifukwa nthawi zonse mumafuna kuyambitsa chisokonezo. Don’t cheat yourself to be watchdogs you are just a bunch of corrupt and opanda nzeru. Osamaona kuchedwa iyayi. Demet.
Government of thieves & pathological liars
I thought the president himself and his party boys at the top have been challenging the opposition that come 2019, they will score a landslide victory so why the nervousness and paranoia to table the bill? Was the landslide victory to be a prediction from the 50+1 or an old voting system that promotes tribalism and regionalism? The fact is Peter Mutharika never won an election genuinely in 2014 and he knows that winning an election in 2019 is a tall order especially after inflicting economic, social, and welfare pain into Malawians. His predicted landslide victory is his wish thinking… Read more »
And so how does Mutharika find himself at the helm? Mutharika was not running any elections. The people that ran the elections were Joyce Banda and company. Looted treasury and had all government levers in their hands to run and rig the election if they so wished. But people voted against JB. PP even lost in Zomba where she comes from. So its preposterous for anybody to think that he did not win fair and clean. Give the guy the credit he did his homework and he won the elections. Period. Musayipidwe naye ndithu APM he did his maths and… Read more »
