Mtonga was welcomed into DPP fold at Hara Primary School Groundby DPP Secretary General Gridezer Jeffrey wa Jeffrey, Northern Regional Governor Kenneth Sanga, Karonga north shadow MP Mungasulwa
Mwambande and Smart Kayira among others.

Mtonga won the seat under the former ruling PP during 2014 tripartite elections but dumped it and joined DPP early this year.

Speaking during the ceremony, Jeffrey wa Jeffrey said the coming in of Mtonga symbolize the strength of DPP on the ground and that PP was on its political death bed .

According to her, Mtonga and his supporters made a right choice to join the ruling party as it will help him to develop the area accordingly.

“I have to thank Mtonga for joining DPP. The MP has done this because he loves you people, he wants to develop this constituency. A clever MP support the ruling party not to enrich him/herself but develop the area,” said Jeffrey.

She said the constituents should not be cheated by other parties because DPP will rule the country till Jesus come.

In his remarks, Mtonga said his decision to join the ruling party followed the area traditional leaders’ advice.

According to him, the chiefs saw the number of development the DPP has done so far in his constituency.

“I followed what my chiefs and constituents want. DPP has really changed this constituency in terms of development. For instance, many areas have access to good health services, education, road network as well as electricity,” he said.

Mtonga said his former party PP is now in the dustbin of political history.

Politics ya Malawi ndiye yalowadi m’ntibwi. A country with a population of 19 million people with 10 million eligible voters, failing to elect political leaders that would take Malawi forward. It so bad that even mabulutu are defining Malawi’s trajectory in parliament. We have parliamentarians that sway from one party to another at a click of a button…….spineless hyenas

The victory pendulum for DPP is diving slowly into the political abyss. Deep analysis shows that MCP will carry the day in most constituencies in the North and LowerShire. While Reverend Munthali is making inroads for MCP so does Mia in the Lowershire and the Eastern Region!!! DPP musovatu ulendo uno!

Hon Mtonga after kuwadyera -dyera amai you have dumped her? By the way, does DDP have credible researchers? Because if it had , there is no way it could have pushed former parliamentarian for the area Glad Chembe Mnthali to Tanzania as High Commissioner to pave way for Mtonga to stand on the party’s ticket in 2019 because Chembe is fairly popular than Mtonga. In addition, the likely victor in that constituency come 2019 in James Makhumbo Mapunda – mark my words.

This guy so called Malani was elected to parliament through PP and now he has joined the DPP,from my understanding his seat is suppose to be declared vacant because the electorates voted him through PP.By declaring his seat vacant it will mean a lesson to others who will be by fooling the electorates when they are voted using the name of a party.Its high time for our Malawi to have electoral reforms so that these political prostitutes and people without integrity must think twice before they chriscross to another party whether from the ruling party or to opposition party
