Mutharika chides whinging opposition: ‘Let them accept they lost and wait for 2024’

Malawi President Prof. Arthur Peter Mutharika went to town on Sunday chiding his competitors in the May 21 Tripartite Elections in which he was declared winner and  he mocked them of poor performance not matching with the noise and self praise before the elections.

Speaking at a “thank you” at Jamba Freedom Park on Sunday, President Mutharika congratulated his Democratic Progressive Party (DPP) troops for what he called a “ well deserved win”.

Mutharika also took the opportunity to mock his opponents saying it is surprising that they were very same people that were touting themselves as technology giants and that nobody was going to rig the elections.

“ You heard them saying DPP ndi afana kwambiri, and that they are experts at computers . Now they same people are saying they we rigged the elections. How? They lost they should just accept,” Mutharika said while laughing.

Mutharika statement sent the thousands of DPP supporters at the rally into stitches of laugher .

The Malawi leader said the problem of elections in Africa is that whenever a party loses an election then it declares that it was rigged.

The  President said he was not surprised that the opposition are disputing the results saying their position was premeditated.

“ They planned this long time ago. That should I win the election, then they shall reject the elections and brand them rigged,” he said .

Mutharika said he was concerned that in response to opposition leader Lazarus Chakwera call for chaos and violence his supporters are destroying public infrastructure.

“ It’s very painful and building this country, building new roads then Chakwera supporters can have  the audacity to be vandalising the new roads apparently because they are bitter with their loss. That is primitive . And am not going to maintain that road. Let Chakwera maintain it,” charged Mutharika.

Mutharika said he had planned several “thank you” rallies for his supporters in all regions of Malawi and the next rally will be announced soon.

By mentioning that the opposition stole DPP votes in the north and central regions, APM is asserting why we need a re-run of the elections. In all fairness, the old man should garn the lost votes. Only then are we going to judge the entire electoral process with sober minds. Would a re-run be free and fair under the same learned Justice Jane Ansah? I don’t know…

Kodi nanunso mungoti nkhani ili ku khoti, khoti lake liti? Inu zoti malawi anaonongeka ndi corruption paliponse simukudziwa. Mukuona ngati ku khoti kubwela chinthu chokupsa. Zongoononga ndalama basi. Take my words nothing positive will come out from that case.

I have not seen APM in this oratory form, and in a jovial and joking mood before.
Great performance; oChakwera and Chilima could learn from this too.
Can’t wait for more …
