Mutharika moves out of State House to private sprawling Mangochi residence  

Mutharika’s Mangochi private residence

As President Lazarus Chakwera was taking an oath of office in Lilongwe, former president Peter Mutharika hurriedly packed his belonging from Sanjika Palace in Blantyre and made his way to Mangochi his retirement home.

Mutharika was mobbed by supporters in DPP regalia in the Eastern Region.

Mutharika, 80, is said to have built a sprawling mansion in Mangochi where he will enjoy his forced retirement from politics.

Upon arriving in Mangochi, Mutharika was met by hundreds of his supporters who cheered and danced as he enlightened from the vehicle he was being driven.

A jovial looking Mutharika was seen interacting with his supporters as his bodyguard Norman Chisale looked on.

The supporters chanted “Adad omwewo, ife sitilola” implying that for them it is Mutharika whom they acknowledge instead of his successor Lazarus Chakwera.

Mutharika lost the June 23 elections to Chakwera and has not contested the results of the election although he highlighted that he had reservations over the electoral process.

Muthalika will be remembered as the architect of tribalism though the scheme was started by his brother Bingu. Muthalika was just very arrogant and never took advice from anyone even those surrounding him. The only advice he took was inflicting pain on others like Vincent Nundwe, George Kainja, the CJ Andrew Nyirenda and many more. Muthalika wanted to kill even his own party. What was the rationale of bringing Atupele Muluzi as his runningmate? Why did he sideline able people like Heatherwick Ntaba? What was wrong with Bintoni Kutsaira? Muthalika dug his own grave and no body will sympathize with… Read more »

If all looters of public monies are allowed to retire into luxury right next to the poor, who unfortunately sing their praises, then something is seriously wrong with them and the system. There is no deterrent. Every next Joe can become President for 5 years, enrich himself and walk? It’s time to account for and punish! NEVER AGAIN! NOT ON MY HARD-EARNED TAX MONEY!

Hey Malawians, we need to be tolerant and accept that not all folks will go for the Tonse Alliance. If we did then there would be no democracy. And the most pathetic folks are those who think all educated people shud be for Tonse Alliance. Noooo. You town folks who claim to be enlightened are the easily manipulated folks. People who can accept subtle propagandist like SKC.

I am not exonerating APM but simply putting it that let those who love APM do so without being looked down on. Its their right!!!!

I think APM was weak in his administration. He let bad people around him influence his decisions. The likes of Dausis. It’s time for a jump start for our economy.

This Master Mbavaa APM, and late bingu… have in their 13 years of mafia rule, have looted and stolen close to USD 4Billion without any sense of guilt, morals, or patriotism. Both Mutharika’s and Muluzi have proven to be rotten money suckers of the people of Malawi. Both have taken Malawians for granted for past 26 years. Both parties have ruled Malawi as if it were their family estate. They did not care 1 bit about Malawi, nor did they care about any Malawians, unless you were Yao or Lomwe. Poor people died of hunger, died due to lack of… Read more »

I think this private residence needs to also be checked by ACB no one could have amassed so much wealth in such a short period of time. Can you imagine how stupid the people of Mangochi are? They voted for the same man who is responsible for their poverty?? are they serious!!! And they even welcome him with open arms.

Chikoko Bay is a not a sprawling private residence but a state lodge. For your information, it is the state that has taken him there until they find him a retirement home, mwapulika?
