Nankhumwa elected Malawi opposition leader:  Trounces Kusaila, Msaka in DPP race

1. Does it mean dpp MPs are more powerful than the NGC? What is happening there is very unheard of.

   1. The position of leader of opposition is not a party position but an elected government position. The law says members of parliament from the biggest opposition party elect a leader of the opposition. DPP as a party cannot impose who the leader of opposition should be unfortunately. Contact and dialogue is key otherwise this power play will not end well for DPP as a party

   2. They are following standing orders. NGC is not part of parliament.

2. Anthu okhotetsa malamulo kuti ziwakomere samapita patali. This is democracy; Malamulo amati; mtsogoleri wa chipani chotsutsa; Ndiye A Malema ndi mtsogoleri wa chipani chiti? Open your eyes your boy, they are playing you. Your corner is getting smaller. You dont fight your party. zitsanzo ndi zambiri za USED and ABUSED. You will add to examples.

   1. Anzeru akumawa mwasochelatu apa hhahahah

3. and the drama continues!!!!

4. The root of the problems in dpp is poor leadership by apm.tiday we have utm,it was born out of gossip from people like ben phiri,chisale feeding it to apm.there only dpp can have chance is clear out junk in its ranks people like chaponda,mpinganjira,mphepo,mussa ,mchacha ,ben phiri and nankhumwa himself need ship out.malawians need new faces

   1. Standing orders of parliament apply to parliament and NOT a party. MPs have just followed what is in their standing orders therefore outside party members are just making NOISE. Even the president is outside parliament.

5. How come that MANEB is allowing these politicians to storm STD 8 examination rooms? Have Examination rules changed? Can’t this encourage cheating and leakage?

6. Nakhumwa just has to be suspended from the party. Jeffrey will try to quickly organize a sham convetion to crown Nankhumwa as president, the NGC has to act quickly before these UTM guys play the dirty trick again of letting Nankhumwa win.

   Of all people celebrating Nakhumwa are UTM folks. Because they have a plan which even MCP has to be weary about. Nankhumwa has to be removed removed from the party asap.

7. DPP stinks.

8. In as much as these dpp MPs appear to have genuine concerns, I do not think that the path they are taking and more especially what transpired today is the right way of identifying a leader of opposition in parliament. The responsibility rests with the party and not just parliamentarians. Therefore, this can and will easily be challenged by party stalwarts. It is also possible that this sect of dpp MPs are being bankrolled by outside elements. All in all, this wrangle has only just begun as there will be more twists and turns ahead. Watch this space…

9. It came to pass so fast indeed! I commented last night that trying to challenge Nankhumwa for the position of Leader of Opposition in parliament will leave the challengers with egg all over their faces and that has just happened. I do not know much about Nankhumwa as i only follow Malawi politics from a foreign country, but it seems to me he is a charismatic leader and modern politics is all about charisma. Charismatic leaders are liked naturally without even breaking a sweat to woow followers. Now these other ‘command leaders’ that Mutharika wants to appoint do not have the charisma and respect of the DPP cadres. One thing is certain, you cannot demand respect but rather earn it.
   A natural successor to Mutharika has emerged in the form of Nankhumwa whether we are comfortable with it or not. Trying now to stifle his ascendency to power is like trying blocking the Shire river from flowing its natural course, it is just futile.
   If they dare expell him from the party i can foresee him going away with the party.

   1. Wow I think Nankhumwa seems to be a man of principles which makes some people not understand him………..keep on shining broda Nankhumwa!

10. This is sham led by Jeffrey, DPP has 62 Mps, where were the other mps and why didn’t they partake.
    Nakhumwa is not a worthy leader of any political party let alone DPP of Bingu, we need idealism, ideology and vision in a leader. DPP has got those calibre sadly Nakhumwa, as popular as he might be. Btw it mistify me why that is. But he is not the suitable candidate to move this party forward.

    1. MP’s are being paid to be in Parliment it is job of disapline Community to penalize MP’s not attending their duties in Parliment. It time Government shamed these MP’s when not attending Parliament by posting attendance records. Stop paying allowance. Time we expected MP’s to do more and work by rising to the position they were elected for.

11. The biggest pretender of ALL TIMES

12. Nde awawa mukuti adzitsutsa Chakwera?????

13. Mp’S WHO TRUELLY LOVE DPP AND HAVE VOTED FOR NANKHUMWA WILL
    REGRET SOON

14. Koma usiku amagona bwanji mkuluyu? Ndi dzina la mwini wake
    omwalira? Eish

15. Adad siziwathela…osangozisiya bwanji ????? Nyekhwe….

    1. Akamuna a 37 point ku opposition ukooooo! Hehehehehe

       1. Nakhumwa yemweyo kuti wawawa!x3

16. This election still smells of UTM funding. I remember late Ishmael chafukira also declared himself leader of opposition with help of government, he never went far with his plans.

    This crook is headed for failure, his style of politics and also credentials is what we hate not necessary him as a man.

    1. He is incompetent, nobody knows what he stands for, no vision nor intellect to be s leader, he might say wise words akin to that of a village head and be popular with the simps
       But he is not worth of s leader of opposition albeit Bingu’s DPP

17. Mr nankhumwa just know your time is up. NGC will shortly suspend you from the party. That’s what we do with individuals who think they are bigger than the party.

    1. If you suspended Nankhumwa achinyamata tonse tikusamuka

       1. Samukani ndi mbuli nzanuyo. A Malawi sindimawamvetsa ai. Chenicheni inu a DPP, mukufuna chiani kwa mbuli ngati iyi George Malemia?

       2. Samukani ife tisala

          1. Chipani cha Nkhalamba zokhazokha chikafika kuti???? chifera pa njira kaya!!!!

18. The beginning of the end; being also the beginning of the beginning, when picking up the pieces, after everything has been hewn asunder

19. Wina akomokatu apa kkkkk nankhumwa wangoti pheee

20. Nkhalamba ija makani ndi mwano basi.Azingochitisidwa manyazi daily ufiti basi nkhalamba imene ija.Inazolowera zopanga ambush chilichonse lero kwagwa thumba lamanyi ku Mangochi hahahahahahahaha ichoooooooooo!!!!!!!!

    1. DPP should forget bouncing back to power  if this the caliber of the people it continue
       entertaing

    2. This has come to no surprise, obviously he bribed the
       corrupt  DPP MP’s

    3. The worst mistake by DPP, This man will sell the party

    4. Pathetic munthu okuba certificate uja wabanso udindo ukoo

    5. Not inspiring at all! How do you let munthu  otchuka  ndikuba  certificate in the forefront ?

    6. Nankhumwa  is very dangerous
       and is a mafia.Nkutheka waopsezanso ovotawo

    7. George Malemia ndi munthu oipa moyo amaliza chipanichi

    8. Im sure Mutharika now understands why Chilima and Kaliati
       left

    9. Katswiri pa za ufiti, kuba ,katangale ndi ziphuphu koma
       osagwidwa, Olemekezeka a George  Malemia
       Nankhumwa

    10. Malemu Kondwani Nankhumwa awooooooooo……kikikiki

    11. No wonder this party lost an election like that, People like
        Nankhumwa  are very retrogressive. They
        will bribe almost everybody but will not match the caliber   of Saulos
         Chilima and Dr. Chakwera. In other words
        DPP will be in opposition forever.
