Mwenefumbo excuses himself from Times TV debate : Issues apology
United Democratic Front (UDF) Presidential running mate Frank Tumpale Mwenefumbo has announced that he will not be among debators for Wednesday’s presidential running mate debate organised by Times Television.
Mwenefumbo, who impressed during another debate organised by Zodiak Broadcasting Corporation (ZBS) last week is reportedly engaged with other equally very important engagements.
“I would like to apologise to the electorate and listeners , that I will not be able to participate in a Presidential running mate debate organised by Times TV in Blantyre today due to circumstances beyond my control,” said Mwenefumbo who is partnering Atupele Muluzi on presidential race under UDF banner.
The Alliance for Democracy (Aford) member however promised to make it to the next debate organised by ZBS.
He also announced he will be granting one of the TV Stations Mibawa an exclusive interview on Friday this week.
“However, I am putting all efforts together to attend The Presidential running mate debate organised by Zodiak Radio/TV , and an interview with Mibawa TV on Friday in Blantyre” he said.
Mwenefumbo concluded by sending best wishes and good luck to the rest of the running mates expected to attend Wednesday’s Times Television debate.
Meanwhile, Mwenifumbo has been applauded for communicating in tome unlike the Democratic Progressive Party (DPP) candidate Everton Chomlirenji who failed to show up during last week’s debate organised by Zodiak and failed to communicate and even issue an apology afterwards.
Times TV debate has been organised in partnership with Malawi Federation of Disability Organisations in Malawi (FEDOMA) and will be carried out under the theme: ‘Promoting inclusion of people living with disabilities’.
That’s what you expect from a leader worth his name. Respect to you Frank. For DPP while you are questioning the integrity of the organisation of the debates we the people of malawi have serious reservations with your integrity and truthfulness. We know for certain that your shunning away from the debate particularly on the party chimulirenji centres on his inadequacies to express himself in the queen’s language.. It’s that simple and we Malawians know it.
zogwilizana ndi DPP izi to frustrate the debate
Waithawa iwe Mwenefumbo
Is giving an excuse news? What is news there when this is normal. It was going to be news if he chose to keep quiet like Chimuthawirenji.
Too much debates they already participated in one we want the big kahuna now mr Meliseche. Im sure Chimulireji will duck this this one too hes busy buying votes of a relief tour as a civic education Minister lol
only three parties are important in this elections UTM, DPP AND MCP, these other useless parties just want to divide opposition votes which is bad for malawi if dpp wins again. so frank mwanefumbo you can go to hell for all we care, we really dont give a #$%# if you attend or not, you greedy bustards you dont care about welfare of malawians but your damn self basi. even all other debates please dont attend ok
