MP Bisnowaty booted from own constituency for ‘lies’

Irate residents living in Area 25 of Malawi’s capital in Lilongwe on Friday chased away their legislator, David Bisnowaty, for allegedly not delivering on his campaign promises.

MP Bisnowaty: Unwanted

Nyasa Times understands that Bisnowaty—of Jewish descent—was in the area with plans to woe the constituents so that they re-elect him for the May 2019 tripartite elections.

He is MP for Lilongwe City Central constituency.

“But when he arrived people, especially, the youth turned up against him forcing him to flee the place,” an eye-witness told Nyasa Times.

He added: “Residents from the area are not satisfied with lack of projects like roads in the area as per promised by their parliamentarian.”

The legislator, who was elected as an independent but later defected to the governing Democratic Progressive Party (DPP), was reportedly whisked away by a well-wisher.

He left his posh car behind.

With just nine months to the elections, most MPs are likely to experience the same for failure to deliver their campaign promises

The excitement that prevailed over the coming in of his gentleman and Rumphi West parlimentary who is from Holland Jacqueline Kouwenhoven, on political landscape in the two respective constituencies, is akin to the excitement that SKC has brought to entire country. Unfortunately, people from these two constituencies had wide expectations from misplaced promises from then these two parliamentary candidates. I fear this may be the experience of SKC presidency should he prevail on the presidential front.

You could called so called Good politician but in real politics it does not work like that, when you don’t deliver you are shown the door and there is no mercy. Your good character does not solve people’s problems. Get down and dirty and that is the language well understood in politics

If the ru.ing party and other MPs think that this is going to be an isolated case, then they haven’t been paying attention. Malawians ayamba kudzuka. This is no time for MPs or head of state to take people for granted and make promises they know they won’t deliver. Throwing stones is going to be equivalent to being kicked out through the ballot. Anthu atopa.

Why did the reporter mention that David is from jewish decent? What has the religious belief of a person got to do with this article? This guy has done a lot for the people of this country and he uses a lot of his own money for projects. I don’t like politicians but this is one guy that i know is trying his best

We are tired of him. Let him go. Mind you, no MP returns his/her seat in this constituency. Don’t cheat your self that you will return this seat. Wawonjeza!!! We always suffer during rain season, the road to Msungwi is always bumpy.
