Mutharika should retire not rest, says UTM’s Masangwi
President Peter Mutharika should be advised to retire not rest because he cannot handle the pressure of the office of the President with his advanced age, UTM Party patron Noel Masangwi has said.
Masangwi, who calls Mutharika ‘Ambuyanga’ told a campaign rally addressed by Vice President and UTM presidential candidate Saulos Chilima at Mponda Freedom Park in Zomba on Sunday that it is clear that Mutharika cannot go on.
Mutharika, 80, postponed his campaign rallies on two occasions this week.
“Ambuye aja atopa [He is aged]. Mutharika should retire not rest as they are doing to him now. It’s clear that he cant go on and giving him five more years will be an insult. Let him retire now,” said Masangwi, who is also one of the director of Mulakho wa Alhomwe.
“Let him pack and go with honour,” he added.
Mutharika, compared to 2014 elections campaign, has not been active on vote hunting.
In 2014, DPP made a 36.4 percent surprise presidential votes win from the opposition, beating incumbent president Joyce Banda whose People’s Party (PP) came third. MCP came second, with a difference of about 400 000 votes.
The DPP has three main rivals in this election—Malawi Congress Party (MCP), which is in alliance with former president Joyce Banda’s People’s Party (PP) and Freedom Party (PP), Vice-President Saulos Chilima’s UTM and the United Democratic Front which has Minister of Health Atupele Muluzi as its torchbearer.

Patron wa UTM who apparently was named in commission of enquiry to he involved in Chasowa murder case. Hopefully next govt reopens the case. How do these people get the guts to be leading others. And SKC of all the people trusts this man. Some of us we only trust him to help us evade taxes through Elvis freight. U literally pay peanuts in duty ndiye kaya akalowa m’boma.
UTM already afraid like MCP….don’t be cowards face him on 21 May and see how he will humiliate all you anthu otumbwa,oipa ofunira anzanu imfa ngati Inu simuzafa Inu…..
U TM members do not wish us die because we are aged.A chewa akuti saziwika
Stupid Masangwi talking nonsense APM is very right man to hold that position of president than your Chilima and Manganya. These guys are just nothing but a waste if voted into power bcuz they are full arrogance and short tempered. I know Manganya personally; he even slapped my friend James in Chilimba just chifukwa choti watsamila mpanda wa nyumba yake. So I dont see a good leadership in these guys coz is not all of us who will dance to their tone and they will kill even more people for them to be respected
APM the right man?? In your dreams. People like you deserve to be arrested for treason. How on earth would someone even vote for the retarded man Peter?
Give him another chance to empty the country’s coffers
am ready to give him a car to take out to his home village thyolo
agogo atopa awa
Murderer! Can you point a finger at someone because he is old. Yamba wasiye iwe mbava.
childish politics. why attacking your competetor personally? Are you afraid of him…if you are confident that your party will win why don’t you wait for elections since we are remaining with less than eight days. utm is full of babies
It’s called politics.
