Malawi parliament political leadership tell Nankhumwa apologise to Speaker

Malawi Parliament’s Business Committee has agreed that Leader of the House Kondwani Nankhumwa should apologise to Speaker Catherane Gotani Hara over a letter which describes Hara as arrogant and biased towards the opposition.

Nankhumwa asked to address the Houde and say sorry to Speaker

Parliament’s Business Committee is the political leadership of the 193-strong House which met on Tuesday following a commotion caused by opposition legislators over the letter.

The opposition legislators say the letter was not in accordance with the House decorum and questions why it was leaked to social media platforms even before it reached Hara.

Acting Leader of Opposition Lobin Lowe said the business committee agreed that Nankhumwa should address the House and make an apology when the parliamentarians resume meeting at 2pm today, Wednesday.

In a separate interview, Nankhumwa conceded it was wrong for the letter to find its way into the social media platforms before it reached the Speaker herself.

Hara has since responded to the letter but its contents are yet to be known to the public.

  1. What is Malawi parliament political leadership? Nankhumwa is a leader also in parly??? SO HE IS ASKING HIMSELF TO APOLOGISE??? KOMA MEDIA YAKUMALAWI!!! ZILIKO TU…

  2. Hon Nankhumwa swallow your pride and apologise. Hon Gotani Hara is the Head and her decisions are final on all parliamentary matters, a decision has to be made in one way or the other. She is your Speaker whether you like it or not for the next five years!!!!!!!

  3. No need for apologies Mr. Nankhumwa. Catherine is MCP giant and is biased towards MCP and not fit for Speaker. Msowoya from MCP was even better than this silly madam Hara. She lacks leadership skills in parliament. Dont apolgize Mr. Nankhumwa. If anything she continues like that we urge for the motion of impeachment. We want Speaker like late late Sam Mpasu who did not even side with UDEvuuuu in those days.

    1. We too we Want a President like Bakili or Kamuzu who did not Encourage Divisions Based on Tribes or Regions …We too Urge for Motion of Impeachment…kkkk …

    2. May be you are a kid in politics……Mpasu remains the worst ever speaker Malawi has ever had.

      Do you remember if not we should tell you that he so partisanly voted UDF to tie break the second deputy speaker contest in parliament when the opposition needed just the last opportunity to be represented….and you list him as one of the best?? No wonder RIP UDF.

      Just as people keep on touting as one of the best presidents…….he remains one of the most stupid dead presidents Malawi has ever had…after all there are only two dead ones so far another one is coming shortly. How do you praise someone killing over 20people in cold blood and eventually call the victims thieves???

      Stupid and stupid, hear this!

  4. This is the Worst Speaker Malawi Parliament has ever had, very Partisan a betrayer and a witch. Hon Nankhumwa should not apologise, instead should take the opportunity to expose her more. Where is Mcheka Chilenje? a well balanced and well trainer Speaker, Not this one who is so notorious and overating herself for nothing. We miss Hon Msowoya

  5. The tone of the letter itself shows that it was not authored by Nankhumwa. He cannot write such English

  6. DPP is lucking leadership thus why you see all what is happening here in Malawi.Being in government doesn’t mean you can pass each and every bill you propose in parliament,NO.The same applies to the opposition that you can not be opposing everything in parliament.To say the fact DPP are not ready for multiparty all they want is to dictate everything,once you oppose them you become an enemy.Let us understand the word DEMOCRACY and MULTIPARTY in our country hence we shall have a good leadership.

  7. Nankhumwa is a total idiot and a poorly educated bastard who only thrives on corruption and now he’ll bent on being president of Malawi. The fact that he is so thirsty of power he is ready to kill and even furnish the reputation of all his competitors as well as APM. For example his singular pronouncement for dialogue at a political rally before it was endorsed by APM. He wants to be the last man standing in all matters even at Cabinet Meetings!

    He is a danger to DPP, APM and Parliament. He is taking the name of DPP into the mud because in certain quarters he has renounced DPP and vouched that when he takes power he will change the name of DPP to another so that he dissociates himself from the evils of DPP…… Binguism!!’n

    1. We need young and dynamic leaders in Malawi. Nankhumwa is one of them. His political future is bright. You can’t hate someone Mr. Ashamed cadet for being ambitious.

  8. To apologize what ??? Did namkubwa wrong to tell speaker the truth?mayiyo ndi wa MCP mchifukwa chake akukondera mbali imodzi.

    1. You are primitive you and you no nothing.Your brain is full of water and you don’t even know the word DEMOCRACY and Multiparty.You want the speaker to a YES BOSS..Shame!

    2. I come from Mulanje -Muloza but I support UTM. The speaker was not in the wrong at all in fact I am asking some laws in Parliament to be amended so that rude people like sulemani must be thrown out of the house until session passes so that he goes back to his home. This foreigner is so ungrateful that where ever he is coming from they only favoured him otherwise this Mwenye has no roots in Malawi. One needs to comply if the Speaker gives you matching order. And he was fooled with other MBULIS by gearing him . NGATI AKONDERA MBALI IMODZI BWANJI NANGA OSASANKHA WANU? AGALU INU. NOKHA MWAWULURA KUTI KUNO KU MALAWI SIKWANU BWANJI OSABWERERA KWANU TO AVOID KUBWERETSA NKHONDO KUNO IFE KWATHU!

      1. Yankhulani zomveka a Muhariwa. Osaziluma. Kusowa chonena kukhala chete basi. Inuyo Ngati NDI anzeru bwanji musakaimira kachipani Kanu kama MP4 Ngati format yanyimboko. Mukumukumba munthu Kuti NDI foreigner inu mmene amaimira munali Kuti?

    3. Similary, APM ndi wa DPP nchifukwa chake akukonders mbali imodzi, so what are you trying to say.

    4. Pansana pako Charlie he will apologize ufune usafune but he will apologize masaya ngat chitute tachionen

    1. Nankhumwa is not as stubborn as Jane Ansah, he will apologize. The issue is not what he said, but leaking the letter to the media before it got to its recipient. Don’t you get it? dah!!!!
