Mutharika declares to win way above 50+1 majority threshold: Upbeat with DPP-UDF alliance

President Peter Mutharika has told  Democratic Progressive Party (DPP) supporters in Lilongwe that the party’s torchbearer will win with a landslide if the Supreme Court of Appeal does not reverse the Constitution Court judgement for fresh presidential elections which Parliament has set to take place on May 19 2020.

Mutharika was speaking a day after sealing the deal of an electoral alliance with the first biggest party in Malawi’s democracy, United Democratic Front  (UDF) which booted Malawi Congress Party  (MCP) from a 30-year dictatorship in 1994.

He has since expressed gratitude to supporters of the DPP in the Central region for not giving up hope even in the face of hard times.

President Mutharika said DPP supporters in the central region are strong-hearted who have genuine love for their party and have shown this love by coming out in large numbers to demonstrate against what he called “democratic injustice.”

Mutharika was speaking at the gates of Kamuzu Palace where thousands of DPP supporters gallantly marched for court justice in Lilongwe.

The call for fresh elections follows a court judgment which many in the DPP believe to be a conspiracy and judicial coup to remove Mutharika from power after failing to defeat the ruling party in an election.

President Mutharika urged the supporters to maintain peace and order during this time when the country will be going to a fresh election.

“I urge you my friends to remain committed to the ideals of democracy, and the pillars of our government which are hardwork, integrity and patriotism. Lets remain united during these times,” said Mutharika.

On the alliance with UDF, the President said the union has come at the right time, and promised that the DPP will win the elections with a big margin.

“Let me promise you that with this alliance with the UDF, we’ll win these elections again with a landslide,” he promised.

The DPP entered into an alliance with the UDF, a development that has excited supporters from both parties.

This man has no speck of humanity left in him looking at how he’s left his own people in gruelling poverty. This man is so corrupt that he’s let his small circle enjoy with him riches from stolen public funds at the peril of every poor Malawian. Yet, he’s got the audacity to stand there talking gibberish ngati chilipo chabwino chimene waapangira a Malawi. Kllibiletu infrastructure yooneka to attract investors, education standards are at all time low, healthcare is at its worst eversince Nyasaland became Malawi, price of staple food is extremely high that a commoner can’t afford to the… Read more »

That’s the trouble with having a country full of illiterate people with nothing to do. Ferry them from elsewhere and make them match in Lilongwe. Sadly this will not add any votes to this stinking party. It’s doomed.

It beggars belief that M Hetherwick Ntaba after being named in connection with albino killings (which even led to the case being transferred to Blantyre from Zomba because his judge niece couldn’t continue presiding over), is still walking around free as if nothing has happened. HRDC where are your priorities? Instead of closing MEC offices, when it is quite clear that these commissioners cannot conduct the next presidential election, you should be fighting for the rights of those who got murdered senselessly by making sure these suspects are brought to book. That is not to forget the case of Mr… Read more »

APM the great hero of Africa – one of the best Democratic Presidents in the World this is why I love HIM so much – he has been insulted, provoked, molested, intimidated, character assasined but he has chosen to humble himsel lowerly like a Sheep., Surely, I see him being uplifted by the hand of GOD the only true GOD who choses leaders of his choice. Likened to the story of JESUS & BARNABAS many people chose Barnabas a (MURDERER) to be set free and let JESUS the SON of GOD to be crucified on the cross. But surely everything… Read more »
