MCP veep Lombola disown Msowoya, Kaliwo letter:  ‘I did not attack Chakwera’

Malawi Congress Party (MCP) second deputy President Macdonald Lombola has disowned a letter purporting to be from him and some top gurus accusing the party president Lazarus Chakwera of flouting the party constitution.

MCP deputy president Lombola: I did not fault Chakwera

According to  a letter dated January 12 2018 addressed to Chakwera, which has been circulating on social media, vice-president Richard Msowoya, Lombola, secretary general Gustav Kaliwo, deputy secretary general James Kaunda and treasurer general Tony Kandiero accuse Chakwera of going against the constitution of the party and his own word.

The party brass signed the letter including Lombola.

But Lombola on Wednesday denied being party to the letter.

“I am not accusing Chakwera for his style of leadership. No, not at all,” Lombola said.

Asked why he disowns the letter when it has his signature, Lombola insisted he did not endorse the letter and the signature was forged.

“I am not party to it,” he said.

When pressed to explain how his signature was used in the letter to Chakwera, the MCP second deputy president opted to have Nyasa Times speak to secretary general Gustav Kaliwo.

Kaliwo said  Lombola has all along backed the context of the letter and that if he has changed  his mind, he is entitled.

However, Kaliwo said the authors of the letter expect  Chakwera to “respond to the letter.”

  1. Abale tinene zoona. Tikanena zakupha mu MCP zinalipodi koma anthu’wo onse anathawa ali mu DPP ena ndi omwe aja mu UDF. Zigawenga za magazi zonse mulibe zili ku zipani zina, anabisala pa nkhate mwina tinene kuti mkhonde la mfumu. Mukuwadziwa.

  2. ODALA, how old are you? Up to now you don’t know that Msowoya was a running mate to JZU? If that is not working with JZU, what is it then? MCP sizalamulanso dziko lino.
    Even Kamuzu was just favoured ndi anthu a Ku Nkhatabay for him to rule this country. Kamuzu harvested where he did not sow.
    Chinalaka JZU, Chakwera sangachithe. Mpata woti muzaphenso a malawi, kongilesi siidzaupedza.
    Chilembwe opened up the presidency for the south and that dominance is here to stay. Come 2019, kongilesi iliranso.

    1. I am 45 Years! I was there during Kamuzu. Mwana ngati ali wako zolakwa zake sizimaoneka. Zolakwa za DPP simungazione a Hatton. You better take statistics of people who like MCP now under Laz. no matter the infiting therein. I only like the dpp of 2004-2009 not the current. God will help malawians. 1992 was the same, Kamuzu couldnt believe the wind that blew then, Mtaba and Dausi were misleading Kamuzu.

  3. Don’t cheat Dr Chakwera ndi diluuuu for the first time since multiparty M C P sinapenzepo mpando ku South but with Dr Chakwera ndi zitheka nanga a Mia akakhala runningmate kkkkkkkk wina athawa. Zomwetsana manyi ku 18 izo sitifuna

    1. the good thing is that a quick solution have been arranged to evaporate Kaliwo he contributed anything in the party apart from bringing confusions
      as for Msowoya he will choose whether to remain or not but Mia is in MCP to stay and MIA ndi Katundu omangira akatundu

  4. This is how pathetic Malawian Politics is. They think politics is about lying or accusing one another.. Too bad.

  5. Amene mukuyikira kumbuyo a Kaliwo, Msowoya, Munlo mukungufuna kukweza changa mmwamba. Atatu amenewa onse amafuna u president wa MCP koma chikoka alibe ndipo amenewa or atayima pa u MP kwawoko palibe adzawasankhe mark my words. Cholinga chawo ndikufuna anzawo omwe ali ndi kuthekera afooke kuti afanane ndi iwo. Anthu akufuna MCP ibwerenso ilamulire dziko likutha ili.

  6. Waiopera patali uyo. Wathawa he has just betrayed his friends the Kaliwos team. Ife tili nganganganganga pa MCP and Chakwera

  7. YOU OLD ASS MCP GUYS MUSATITOPESE APA OK, CUT ALL THIS BULLSHIT. YOU ARE GOING TO START LOOSING VOTERS LIKE MYSELF IF YOU KEEP ACTING LIKE FUCKEN GREEDY BUSTARDS ALL YOU CARE ABOUT IS YOUR EMPTY POCKETS YOU FUCKS. ALL YOU SO CALLED FUCKEN SEASONED POLITICIANS ARE ALL THE SAME FUCKEN GREEDY, YOU DON’T CARE ABOUT THE PEOPLE BUT YOURSELVES. PLEASE LEAVE CHAKWERA ALONE HE CARES FOR THE PEOPLE NOT MONEY.

  8. Santana, usanamepo apa kuti chipani chinapita ndi Otembo. Koma kuti ukudziwa mbale wanga kuti MCP ndi Dr Laz ikulowa mboma .Chipani chanu chikapume kaye.

  9. Mr Lombola, mukamva tulo; nditimeneto. Palibe choopa apa. Chakwera sadziwa ndale. How we miss JZU. Late Chakuamba tried to rejoin MCP but the seasoned politician, JZU, refused.

    Koma a Chakwera zoona kupusisidwa ndi Mia nkumanyoza anthu Omwe anasunga chipani?

    Rt. Hon. Msowoya, don’t worry. You have worked with real politicians such as JZU. I am not surprised that you are incompatible with amateurs in politics such as the Chakwera’s.

    Mia is the real confunist in MCP. Watch out for this crook.

    For Kaliwo, your are great and genuine MCP. You defended Kamuzu and JZU in the Mwanza murder case. At that time Chakwera was busy kudya za mkachisi. Those that don’t like you, do not like Kamuzu and JZU.

    1. Opusa hatton, wayamba pano ndale, which Msowoya worked with JZU? go back to when MCP begun, if you will see msowoya working with tembo. I know you fear MIA you dont want to divide South. And for North, Msowoya has already been rejected by Livingstonia, can you make a little reach dear.

  10. Even a child can see that Mr Lombola is lying. One can not take that long to refute a serious story like this, that silence which has been there till today speaks volumes. Things will get interesting as the time for elections draw near. All parties in Malawi are the same cos it’s the same politicians no difference, only people in our imagination we see the difference.

  11. Lombola has been given money to refute his part in the letter. Why has it taken so long for him to come up. Money will kill MCP. What is hapening in the party is not right even though some people are dressing it as democracy. How can Mia jump over people with long-term membership in MCP? Mpaka kumalamula ngati ali ndi udindo – ndalama zimayankhula.

  12. Asantana, Kaya mufuna simufuna chaka chino zinthu zisintha basi. Kusinthako ziyambila kuchosa madevil omwe akusokoneza mkati mwa chipani chathu, kenako tilandila achinyamata akubwerawa pamodzi ndi munthu wankulu Rev Moris Munthali. enawa a LEBWEDELEBWEDE sasankhidwaso pa udindo omwe analipou. kulibe! tisintha kaya atenga ni Mbuya Mia, kaya ndi Fisha Kondowe, Moris Munthali, akaya ndi ma MP athu no problem tikasankha ndife. KWACHAAAAAAA!

  13. The issue here is that Msowoya has run out of options. He knows he will not win as an MP in Karonga in 2019. So the only way that he can remain relevant in Malawian politics is to become a running mate to Dr Laz. It must be known to Msowoya that unlike other political parties MCP is not a family party hence anyone who wants to join it has the freedom to do so. Even if APM decides to join it now he is welcome. So people can join MCP and aspire for any positions any time. We are told that Msowoya is a learned person and he should have been the first to realise this. if I were him I would have focused on rebuilding the party while seeking reelection as an MP so that the party can consider him for the speaker’s position again in 2019. I see him going down the drain in 2019 for siding with wrong people in politics.

  14. Why is Chakwera not responding to the letter? Is he a matured politician? MCP inapita ndi baba Tembo basi. That is why chipani chili pa pinyolo. Nthawi ya Tembo Mia sakamangoidoda MCP chonchi ayi. Umphawi umabweretsadi uhule ndithu.

    1. A-Santana, only a sane person respond to nosense coming from pigs that talk with their feet in their mouth or write with their legs in their hands and that’s why many people stopped responding to your comments because they stink dishonesty just as Kaliwo and the gang’s letter. Responding to that letter as much as your comments can only mount to fight with a pig that will make you dirty and you’ll look stupid while the pig enjoys being dirty. I for one if i were to be Chakwera i couldn’t bother to ever-ever responding nosense.

      1. Eshi Malawians its too much. Today Msowoya is a pig? I pray that MCP should live to regrate. Waona nkhanga mawanga wataya nkhwale. MCP nkhanza sidzatheka. Pig???????? mwachoka pa a gang’a. Shii.

  15. Kaliwo will not retain his SG position on convention. As for Richard Msowoya he has already demonstrated that he does not want democracy to happen as he is fearing MIA. Msowoya also joined MCP towards 2014 elections and so too has MIA so let them battle out at convention as their actions really are just digging their own political graves

    1. I agree. If you look closely at the people making noise, they are fearing for their positions. Just shows that they won’t care for us people in the villages when MCP wins. They don’t deserve high positions.

  16. TRUTH BE TOLD, I DONT SEE ANYBODY IN THE LIKES OF MSOWOYA, KALIWO, KANDIERO, KAUNDA OR EVEN LOMBOLA BRINGING MORE VOTES TO MCP COMPARED TO SIDIK MIA. IT IS A FACT THAT MCP IS FAVOURED TO WIN IN 2019. WHY MSOWOYA HAS DECIDED TO PUT SPANNERS INTO HIS OWN PARTY REALLY BUFFLES ME. WHAT KIND OF SELFISHNESS IS THIS???

    DOES MSOWOYA WANT TO BE PAIRED WITH CHAKWERA FOR THE SAKE OF PAIRING OR HE IS SERIOUS ABOUT WINNING??? DOES MSOWOYA KNOW WHAT IT TAKES TO UNSEAT THE RULING PARTY?????????????????????????????????

  17. Kaliwo is a known failure …. akufuna alandile banzi. Waiphonya. Even DPP knows that you have no followers even in your constituency. They wont waste time with you

  18. Mukumva akulu akulu. Zoona Kalaiwo and Nsowoya. I think there are just the two of you bringing confusion for selfish motives., to hold the party at ransom, so as to guarantee your senior positions in party kuti mudzidyerapo. not that Chipani chiwine. Nkolokolo

    1. Adya za eni a Kaliwo….muyalukatu! Richard naye olo mavoti ake 2014 sanakwane 200…..chipani chofuna kuwina sure sichingatenge madeya ngati amenewa! Whoever is using you to confunse chipani cha MCP is destroying you guys…dig your grave ife tidzayika nkhata!
