Minister Khumbize accuses opposition leader Nankhumwa of double standards
Health minister Khumbize Kandodo Chiponda has accused Leader of Opposition in parliament Kondwani Nankhumwa of double standards over his stinging attack on government over the gazetted Covid-19 strict preventive measures.
Chiponda said Nankhumwa was part of the team which formulated the preventive measures as he sits on the presidential taskforce on covid-19.
“This is not the time to bring politics in this matter but honourable Nankhumwa sits in the taskforce and he contributed fully during our meetings,” said Chiponda.
The minister said the country in a crisis and the government needs solutions from everybody to deal with the pandemic instead of blame game.
In a statement, Nankhumwa said the government should come up with mitigating measures such as freeing prisoners with minor charges to decongest prisons, institute zero charges on mobile money transfer, set up potable water sinks in public places to encourage hand washing in all cities and towns as well as cut the president’s and cabinet ministers salaries, among others.
Nankhumwa koma mlowe sadzatheka basi
It is my life-i will be the first to take steps to safeguard it, government can be second. I will not wait for government to buy me a k300 mask and enforce the wearing of it, I will do it myself
Why do u need solutions from everybody? Thot people told u about Covid but u trashed every thing as fake. You boldly told UTMCP gatherings that there was no Covid. Now deal with the consequences of ur stupidity.
This is not time to bring politics into the matter”???? But it was alright to bring politics into the matter 2 months ago!!! very interesting.
Alomwetu ntchito yanu ndi magitala ndikumwa masese anankhumwa anganene chani
Lomwe kumwa masese? Which country do you live in. Sounds like Angoni to me.
The government has already started not to obey covid-19 prevention measures and due think people will follow?
It is about follow the leader we have already
Seen the restriction of 50 at a feneral …. .broken.
The bars are open then you close the churches
Saying gather 10 per in church service it’s indirect saying do not conduct church services.
Oh!! my country but you say our country is God
Fearing country .
Who has bewitched my country.
Lobin Lowe did the same when in the covid meeting agreed something and he went out speaking another thing so dont blame Nankhumwa thats the beauty of democracy. Nkhondoyi munayiyamba nokha woti china chili chonse chomwe APM and DPP did was regarded as nonsense ndiye lero zisakuwaweni ngati muli nazo nzeru ndi bwino kulapa kaye kwa Mulungu and apologise kwa DPP regime pa zopusa zomwe mwakhala mukuwachitira. Munafesa mbewu imeneyi choncho mukolole. Nankhumwa cannot give suggestions and be welcomed by all rather there is time that he can just give in so whatever was shot down in the covid meeting its what is being voiced out after the meeting. Mukhale ndi umunthu opposition ya Chakwera mwazunza APM kwambiri its time for you to reap simunati apa mpadera
aise Khumbi, mutayeni uyu Joji Malemia he knows nothing.
Alomwe ndi choncho don’t waste time with them, they were chased from Mozambique by the Portuguese because of the same behaviour, double standards.
Unfortunately chewas gave them land in mulanje as refugees lero ndi izi amawatukwa achewa womwe anawapatsa malowo ati anyawu. …..even atsamunda characterised lomwes as lazy, untrustworthy and thieves, this is well documented in our history books for those who thinks am joking. And today when we talk about cashgate in the DPP government it should not surprise anyone because atsamunda already did their analysis on this group of people an£ rebelled them as outright thieves.
My advice to the honourable minister is to remove this idiot from the task force because there is no point having him if he will turn around and make such accusations on the things that he was part of.
Join the discussion…Chimaera’s administration is disappointing, honestly. It has betrayed our trust.
Mukutizunza nazo zimalamulo zani zopanda pakezo. A president amene ndioyambanso kuphwanya malamulo. Lero anali kumaliro. More than 50 people attended. Takana new normal.
Chakwera is the one with double standards. Apolisi atulutse the poor folk that were arrested for no masks.
Corona is killing brethren let’s just follow what government is ssying.
Foolish minister. What have you done so far? Maunduna ongopana osaziwa ntchito yake ya undunawo.
Sitting in alone doesn’t mean that one agrees with whatever happens. You Madam Kandodo & your why you didn’t think that people not long ago refused these things imposed on them? Now you thing because it’s Tonse Alliance or MCP then it is OK to impose the same restrictions which you were telling people that are not good???
Anayi ngati inu ndi anene mutazaluzitse Chakwera 2025. Have you considered thosr with conditions like asthma, long travelling from Nsanje to Chitips with a mask on.
Zakuvutani Mayi. Chakwera is a hypocrite. Wasn’t Lowe of MCP part of Mutharika’s COVID team?
CAHA, You are wrong. Mr Lowe you are mentioning was not there in that covid team. Remember the very first covid team that came with those decisions was composed of ministers only, not even medical Doctor. Mr Lowe and other Doctors was incorporated in after public outcly that the team was not inclusive
Moreover, the number of deaths do not warrant such hush treatment on the people. Only 10 in church!
Nankhumwa has to say something as leader of opposition. Atupele was also campaining at that time so shut up Nankhumwa.Come to think of it, why did you let your people steal and abuse their positions hipani catha ici.
Chakwera has just attended a church service of more than 10 people at the funeral of Mai Dinala
