MP Ngumuya cautions DPP on 2019 elections: ‘MCP may be handed victory’
Democratic Progressive Party (DPP) member of Parliament for Blantyre City South Allan Ngumuya has become the second ruling party’s legislator to back former first lady Callista Mutharika who openly spoke about leadership change in favour of Vice-President Saulos Chilima to represent the party in next year’s elections and let President Peter Mutharika retire.
Ngumuya said DPP and President Mutharika should tread carefully on the matter as it is giving main opposition Malawi Congress Party (MCP) a leeway to be the party to win next elections due next year.
“If President Mutharika insists that he should be the DPP presidential candidate in 2019, then the Malawi Congress Party will have a walk over in the election,” said Ngumuya.
His decision to come open on the matter comes barely days after Bon Kalindo , another DPP legislator backed the Chilima-for-President crusade.
“The President told me two years ago that he would not seek a second term, he said he would leave the mantle to the youth, God is my witness,” said Ngumuya.
He suspected those who surround Mutharika, accused of running the affairs of the country on behalf of the 79 year old leader, are the ones forcing him to cling to power for personal gains.
“The current President has done his part, we are now looking forward to Chilima to rule the country, he is young and vibrant, he will make decisions on his own,” said Ngumuya.
Calls for the ‘Number Two’ to take up the presidency comes at a time when reports say Mutharika wants to drop Chilima as running mate for Education minister Bright Msaka, whom the president recently appointed
vice president of the party and represented the President at the funeral of South Africa’s former First Lady and political activism icon, Winnie Mandela.
The issue, ignited by Former First Lady Callista Mutharika, has sharply divided the party.
Callista Mutharika, widow of former president Bingu wa Mutharika and sister-in-law to Peter Mutharika, argued that she is airing her views to protect her in-law President Peter Mutharika from ‘beasts of prey’ who have surrounded the Malawi leader and messing his administration.
Minister of Information and Communications Technology Nicholas Dausi said those opinions cannot divide the party.

I am just wondering why people are already supporting parties before they even hold their elective conferences. They haven’t even announced or communicated their manifestos, policies or resolutions. The campaign hasn’t yet started and yet you have already made up your minds as to who you’ll support; even if Malawi political system calls for voting for a party and not individuals/personalities. Why is it that you vote with your hearts as opposed to your brains (which requires applying your minds). Let’s listen to each party’s messages during the campaign before we make up our minds as to which party you’ll support and vote for. Let’s change Malawi politics and be sure that we are voting for a party that will care for the people and will have the political will to lift the country pout of its poverty.

Ife a DPP tinasokoneza MCP through Kaliwo and his friends. Now MCP you’re paying back koma simutitha. Strategic analysis nde ifeyo. Misewu mbweee paliponse musova
Timadya miseu? Timaunikira miseu usiku? You must be very stupid
Go back to music Sir
Shaaasa Ngumuya watha chonci. Your face was smooth when coming from America. Politics has finished. With what you have said it’s the beginning of your journey toward the end of your political Carrier. You have put yourself in reverse gear instead of forward hear.
Wagwanayo ndale mwana wa wa ngoni. Don’t play with Lomwe people. Ask the dpuruts of late Kamuzu Banda,will tell you who Lomwes are
Ngumuya is a crook. Look at his face. Is he normal? What good can come from that mouth. He knows very well thank he will not make it. He is defending Nchilima because he comes from the same district with him that I’d ntchru. Gslu wochokera pamudzi was Ngalande pa Mulangeni ku Nthcu. If Nchilima will say no, that will be the end of this idiot. Anathawa ana ache obeleka yekha ku America kumusiila nkazi akuvutuka nawo yekha. Mbuzi ya munthu iyi
Handed victory? What is dpp doing with it’s old leader Pitala? Most of the things we see in Malawi were built by MCP. 90% of the roads are MCP. MCP built long distance roads from Mulanje to Mchinji. The whole lakeshore road to Karonga. Zalewa road. Blantyre Mwanza. Lilongwe. Salima. Lilongwe to Mzuzu. Twanu ndi itwi tikungogumuka because of poor quality and quantity. Msilikali angamange mseu? Pobela basi. Look at the road from Chilinde to Area 23. Look at the road from area 23 to Biwi. Now you want people to vote for you thieves? It’s not that MCP will be handed victory. It’s your failures. You are busy building stadiums instead of increasing schools. Those schools could accommodate playing grounds where pupils can learn sports during pastime. Very silly thinking is in dpp. They share K4 billion but what can the shared money do in a large constituency like Lilongwe City Centre agalu inu. Hospitals don’t have drugs and yet when you are sick you go to Mwaiwathu, you go to South Africa, you go to India etc. You send you children to universities in UK, South Africa, Kenya and Malaysia. Poor man feel it. You have to find a solution to this pollution.
Allan Ngumuya, You know already that your constituency will never repeat you as our MP. You think Saulos can rescue you? You forced yourself into DPP but you were not received. You know that DPP cannot take you as their candidate in 2019. You can do well by just staying quiet than provoking others. Shame on you!
Iwe ndi chitsilu kwabasi. Just shut up your mouth up!!!
Loading…..
hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahah MCP YOU CAN FORGET RUNNING THIS COUNTRY. WHAT IS HAPPENING IN DPP WILL NOT GET YOU ANY VOTES, IT IS AN INTERNAL ISSUE THAT WILL BE SORTED. SO PLEASE FORGET ANY DREAMS ON RUNNING THIS COUNTRY. GO BACK TO BEING A SO CALLED “PRIEST”
The saga is becoming interesting each passing day lol…… DAUSI ukumva bwanji mthupimo? Kkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk Mathanyula forget ever going for second term, dzanja lalemba whether Jessie afune or asafune. MCP moto ku buuuuuuuuu!!!!!
Internal issues within DPP, MCP, PP or indeed UDF won’t be resolved internally. Th seeds of chaos have been planted from external forces and will continue to be sowed. It’s the nature of ndale. No one knows who is going to win the tripartite. To think that DPP (or MCP) is going to win, is being extremely naive. All bets are off Jessie.
kkkkkk. A Ngumuya sanali independent kodi meaning he is typically an outsider that joined the party as a fortune seek………..and lo! the anticipated fortune never crossed his path.
The Fall of Mutharika Empire. DPP centre no longer holds and the horse has certainly bolted. DPP has a choice between handing over “family business” to Chilima or face losing at the next tripartite elections. It’s that simple!
Kodi uli mbali itiyo iwe otchedwa DzukaniAmalawi? Are you in support of Chilima or Chakwera? Have you dumped Chakwera because of this childish talk about Chilima? Where are you really standing Mr confused? You are giving yourself false hopes becausew APM and DPP are here to stay. Mungofapo ndi BP ulere because nothing will change in as far as DPP presidential candidacy is concerned .
Political parties are yet to hold their respective Elective Conferences, where they will elect their leadership and torch bearers. It is at this point that they will adopt their proposed manifestos, policies and resolutions. I will vote for a party whose ideologies and policies are resonating with my needs as a citizen. I will not vote on the basis of personalities ie Chilima or Chakwera. I will apply my mind and vote accordingly, based on the political messaging during the campaign. I would also urge you to do the same. Don’t vote for Peter but DPP and don’t vote for Chakwera but MCP, based purely on what they have to offer Malawians and specifically yourself. As to which I will vote for, is my secret; because it is a secret ballot system.
Bwana Ngumuya you must know that MCP was already handed victory including your own constituency. DPP has let Malawians down. It’s a party owned by Mutharika. There is no way mutharika can allow anyone apart from him to stand as presidential candidate. Just like UDF and PP this party is some how owned by individuals and this tell why many others want the old man to continue ruling. MCP is the only party run on structures and constitutionalism. This is why it’s president can challenged by its members etc. Every Malawian knows that in the current status, MCP is the only party that should trusted.
If Chilima stands as a presidential candidate for DPP , what assurance do we have that he can win against Chakwera and Mia? Osamangolubwalubwa
There are no guarantees in politics especially when it comes to elections; There are a number of factors at play among which are cheating at ballot box and free & fair play. However, having a strong, agile, articulate, young, energetic, visionary and most importantly a firebrand; certainly helps a big deal. Obviously Peter Mutharika isn’t any of those. Malawians are no longer sleepwalking.
What ngumuya and 3 others are saying could be a disgrace to chilima himself. what people should know is that dpp stil wins electoins in 2019 with or without chilima . it was the pleasure of the president to pick chilima as his vice . nobody forced him . the president may get scared with this noise and decide to pic another running mate . when things reach that stage . it would be impossible to force the president reverse his mind . even billy can not manage to organise demonstrations . one has to be careful when uttering this nonsense otherwise chilima wil be victimised for no apparent reason
Time will solve this and you will know nothing else but the truth in May 2019!! Sikuti timu ya mpira ikatenga chikho kawiri zimatanthauza kuti iwo nde amene azidzatenga chikho moyo wao onse……………!! If Malawians voted yes & twice before, it does not mean they shall never change their voting pattern………………………………. limenelo ndiye bodza!! and indeed its nonsense to think in those lines!!
Allan Ngumuya? another frustrated and misguided person who thought by joining DPP would get a government position We really want all of you with hidden intentions to come in the open as you are doing so that we can differentiate The real DPP members and the fake ones. Jelous will take you nowhere and mark my words DPP with APM as its candidate will win again. Ask me how the Party won with landslide in 2009: I was also there in 2014 when many people doubted that DPP would reclaim the government.
Sikuti onse amene amavota ndi amene ali ndi ma positions iyayi………..!! Kaya Allan adzaluza kaypena adzaluza komabe ali ndi ufulu ofunila za bwino chipani chake!! It is there4 insane to regard him as a rebel out of wishing his party good……………………………………………………………………….!! Overzealous members think like this……………………………………..! Mxiiiiiiiiiiiii
Which Malawians are looking at Chakwera as next president? Be specific just say Chewas not Malawians. Let Muthalika contest at the convention. If you don’t like him we like him very much. Without him MCP will win easily. Just show true colors just declare that you’re now MCP period. Because if you have the guts why coming to the media in steady of using party procedures. It’s you who’s finished not APM
Ifeyoooooo we are looking at Chakwera as president. Iwe siwaku Mpanyira ku Mozambique ungazidziwe hahahaha
Mbuli iwe udzazindikira nkhwangwa ili mmutu, MCP AND CHAKWERA NDI BOMA KALE COME 2019, MBAVA ZAKO ZA DPP IZO IFE TAKANA
Chakwera can sharply see how Malawians are suffering due to beasts of prey surrounding Muthalika unfortunately Muthalika can not see these beasts what is wrong with Malawian leaders. Look the way Ben Phiri who has no position in govt but ammassed that worthy to become billionaire and Muthalika is watching. These will be the questions Malawians will serious investigations and no one can just sleep and wake up in the morning and become billionaire talking to Malawians I work hard who does not work hard why we can not be billionaire that is rubbish 2019 is drawing closer for you Ben Phiri, Kondwani Nankhumwa and your friends Vuwa and all will face justice because of defrauding state resources. How can every one witness corruption in poor country like Malawi zovesa chisoni mmene anthu abale athu akumwalilira ku Kamuzu central hospital. That is why u want nkhalambayo to cling to power athandiza chani ng’ooooooo nkhanga zaona.
I like the trend of developments. When a current is generated in the ocean no one can stop it!!!! Warnings to the old guard cronies that your time is up. Gooddal commented that running a government is not for babies. I would rather vote for a baby rather than these old and rusty so called leaders who spend most of theor times dosing in national functions such in Parliament.
Ndiye ngakhale MCP itawina DPP ikupanga chani abale m’Malawi muno?Si nthawi yoti zinthu zisinthe iyi?
Sungaziwonez mtumbuka iwe. Kwanu Ku mpoto akumangilani misewu, ndi masukulu.
Umayenda kuti iwe “mwana Yure”. Wamanga misewu kumpoto ndi ndani? Nkhalamba yakoyi? Don’t be sarcastic in your comments. Dikira uzawone how the North shall embarrass your useless party during the coming elections.
You are very much happy with Malawi’s present suffering
STUPID ZEALEOISTS.
Ngumuya will soon be fired alongside Kalindo. Ngalande has already been fired
Nnasongole ndi tiringu asiyane tsopano. Us in DPP are happy as these people are coming out. Finally we know who is who..who can be trusted and who cannot be trusted. Viva APM Viva SKC
Inseparable team we made in 2014 together we will make it in 2019
In your dreams lol
Big up Ngumuya the truth is everyone is fed up with a leader who shields thieves. Its Chilima or we boot you out of Govt
This is what some of us have been talking about and we are still talking about. DPP is completely finished. Callista….Bon Kalindo…..Louis Ngalande….Allan Ngumuya. Wait for the next 3 weeks to see a full list. So the issue is that whether its Chilima or Mutharika, Malawians are done with this bunch of thieves masquarding as a political party. MCP and chakwera nanunso chibwana ayi kumeneko mwamva? Malawians are looking up to you to bail them out.
fact!!!!!
But of the 4 people you have mentioned, Only Kalindo has proven to be ethical. Callista is also a thief and we all know it. She amassed wealth while with Bingu. They milked parastatals and businessmen during their wedding and engagement forcing them to give monetary gifts. Can she explain where her and her husband got the money to build Ndata and all the millions in their accounts.
Ngalande ndi uyu anapha Chasowa but since he is DPP the case cant go anywhere. Ngumuya is an opportunist who ran as an independent and went to DPP kissing the same Mutharikas ass hoping for a position and zakanika. So we will change president but the flock of thieves will follow him because they will help him get elected by campaigning for him in various constituencies.
And wasnt the whole country angry 4 years ago because apparently Saulos helped rig the elections in favour of APM. So now everyone wants the rigger to be president? As Bakili said, ‘A Malawi sitichedwa kuyiwala.”
TRUE….whether DPP changes leadership to Saulos, I can never vote for it…ine ndi MCP chongi on that day. We are in these problems because of same Chilima’s rigging. The rigger and Mathanyula will be wiped out together.
