Mtambo warns against voter apathy in Malawi presidential re-vote
Malawians will lose out if voter apathy is the winner in Tuesday’s fresh presidential elections, Citizens for Transformation (CFT) leader Timothy Mtambo has said.
Mtambo, a former human rights campaigner turned politician, took the unusual step of intervening in an election campaign to urge people to come out and vote.
“Not to use your vote is, in my opinion, a surrender of your democratic right and, more importantly, it will result in the loss of something valuable, which you may regret in the future,” said Mtambo.
The self-style commander was speaking at Gologota in Lilongwe City South East at a rally he addressed together with legislator for the area Ulemu Msungama.
Mtambo reassured the people that a vote for Dr Lazarus Chakwera of Malawi Congress Party (MCP) to be the country’s next leader and his running mate Dr Saulos Chilima is the only vote that will liberate Malawi.
Popularly known as comrade, Mtambo said. “I have travelled throughout Malawi, everywhere I go people are talking about Chakwera and Chilima”
He attacked DPP -UDF alliance, saying that lacks proper leadership and cannot compare to the Tonse Alliance team.
“A leader needs to be intelligent, loving and humble and this is what you find in Dr Chakwera and Dr Chilima, and you can’t compare these leaders to Mutharika and Atupele who lack any of the leadership qualities,” charged Mtambo.
Mtambo warned people against voter apathy.
“I know sometimes we get discouraged and don’t want to go and vote just because we think our vote will be stolen and we will lose, but let me encourage you that we will do our best to safeguard the vote and no vote will be stolen this time,” said Mtambo.
In his remarks, Msungama thanked Mtambo for the sacrifices he has made for Malawi from the time that he was part of the Human Rights Defenders Coalition (HRDC).
Msungama went on to remind people that Chakwera and Chilima is the dream ticket that will take care of the many of the problems that many Malawians face.
He blamed the DPP government and their predecessors UDF for not doing enough to bring any meaningful development and improving peoples livelihood in Malawi.
Other officials who spoke at the rally include UTM official Iqbal Omar and Lilongwe City West MP George Zulu. They both encouraged those that registered to vote to go and vote in large numbers and to vote for Tonse alliance .
Also, in attendance was the CFT movement leader in the diaspora Linda Khembo Nwosu who has flown from Manchester. UK.

Kodi AMTAMBO ndi ndaninso pa Malawi??? Kubisala ku HRDC ngati womenyera ufulu wa anthu koma being used by MCP’s Chakwera . Shame. Its good campaign yatha anthu tsono muone nyekhwe pa 23 June pano
Mtambo ndani? Go and ask your eighty years old Peter Muthalika, he will tell you that he is a “terrorist” yet Mtambo comes from Chitipa Central Constituency. The energetic Timothy Pagonanji Mtambo, the modern Malawi Politicians has travelled across the country including Ndirande where some Mangochi DPP cadets failed to disturb his whistle stop rally and in the process were taught bitter lessons.
Ndiye wayiwonatu nyekhwe ngati mumadya zakuba zatha
It is indeed very important that Tonse alliance should find a way of getting the 1 million central region registered voters that did not vote in the last election to come out to vote this time!!! These are potentially your votes and a significant chunk likely to affect the outcome of the election!!!!
After all being said and done my fellow Malawians if you want real change to our country’s politics MMD is the way to go thus only clean and diamond politician. Voting for DPP now that you are changing only VP voting for MCP know that you are maintaining the failing VP who manufactured crisis in Malawi in trying to become chrasmatic leader. Unfortunately not all chrasmatic leaders are transformational leaders. This is what is going to happen when we put ourselves in hands of MCP we will open another chapter of unproductive years as SCK will be continuing with his quest of creating crisis to boot out MCP . He will be doing this through not helping MCP not to fulfil its promises and allowing Chakwera to commit more mistakes so that he will use these to highten emotions of UTM and other voters to put him in power. Lastly it’s is possible that we will be committing same mistake Zimbabweans did by putting their current president who came so chrasmatic but ended up to be same old shit people wee trying to run away from. I was not there when MCP was in power I heard alot of good deeds which were tarnished by few but very dark things done by followers of MCP . As we can see right now all of us hybrid nursery of MCP dark hearted ones being raised in sundae and likes of mtambo and many others anthu amanena azayabwa Malawi. Chithu China Kodi corruption ndi chani ? Kodi sipamene anthu akupanga zazofuna zao kusiya zofuna zagulu or za office imene aikidwamo? On this same platform we saw tonse alliance fight for shares of steak of govt leadership positions and offices. How many are in tonse alliance? Onsewa kuti azalipilidwe zimene analonjezana do you think our country will have free post for no strings attached officers who will show to be compent ready to save us ? No not at all I doubt ngati kuzasale even mafupa Oti anthu azipani zina or independent officer’s to begive to help to run this country.
Nde tikamavota this time I want us to think one thing yes they show us all the promises and they painted beautiful pictures of future for us koma mistake ndiimodzi sanatiuze kuti tikafika bwanji kumeneko. Fertilizer etc akuti zocheap komanzoona zake ndizakuti we will be paying all these mitengo wa paziko lapansi only that this time azizatikhapa misonkho osati zibwana. Komanso we can’t be similing kuti we have change pamene asogoleli akuti azikapepha kuazungu kunja hahahaha nonsensical ideas of Malawi politicians
MMD is the way
