Leader of opposition and Democratic Progressive Party (DPP) Vice President for Southern Region Kondwani Nankhumwa has said the party believes that political stability, peace, good governance, social and economic development can only be achieved under conditions of national unity.

Nankhumwa led a team of the party’s executive officials to wrap up the campaign before official closure of the campaign as stipulated in the electoral law.

Nankhumwa: DPP believes that political stability, peace, good governance, social and economic development can only be achieved under conditions of national unity

He was speaking on Saturday, March 27, 2021,  in Karonga north-west when he led a team of the party’s executive officials to wrap up the campaign before official closure as stipulated in the electoral law ahead of Tuesday by-elections.

He said therefore, the DPP shall continue to pursue ‘One Malawi One Nation’ agenda where social and economic development is distributed equally regardless of region.

Nankhumwa held two separate campaign meetings at Chinsebe in the area of Ngonde Paramount Chief Kyungu and at St. Mary’s Schools Ground at the Boma in Senior Chief Karonga’s area.

“I can assure you that we shall continue fighting for an improved social and economic status of Malawians,” he said adding that also, the DPP is a political vehicle for governing based on the genuine tenets of democracy and rule of law.

Nankhumwa was accompanied by Treasurer General of the party and Rumphi North parliamentarian Jappie Mhango, DPP Secretary General Grezelder Jeffrey, DPP northern region Governor Ackim Mwanza and regional, district and constituency committee members.

Before the meetings, Nankhumwa also paid a courtesy call on Senior Traditional Chief Karonga. He informed the traditional leaders that he has great respect for elders, particularly traditional leaders and that he saw it imperative to formally inform him about his political activities in the chief’s territory.

The senior chief acknowledged Nankhumwa’s “humility” and granted him permission to carry out political meetings “in a peaceful manner as we are all Malawians despite holding different political views”.

  1. Simudzabweranso ndi ma kadeti anuwa. You did a very bad job by thinking that Malawi was the Lomwe Belt. Malawi is from Chitipa to Nsanje and Mchnji to Nkhotakota. DPP isadzabwerenso

  2. Love it One Malawi One Nation how it should be. Shame DPP asked Nankhuwa not to campaign before 2023 and step aside as Opposition Leader. DPP needs to walk the talk before people will ufollow again.

I love your speech Mr nankhumwa but during dpp Chiefs were afraid to attend opposition meetings because of you guys kuopakuti muachotsa look now their are enjoying even lundu himself mull brother still getting tenders if u were you could this happen anyway forgetting the past and looking forward

  8. One Malawi one nation lero limenero? Ma CEO onse ama parastatals anali anthu Anu. Ntchito ku Chiaptala, Poluce, Army and mma Parastatals mumalemba anthu anu okha. Za Mardef, Central and Northern regions combined ndalama zimene zinaperekedwa osafikira pa ndalama zimene zinaperekedwa ku Phalombe kokha. Mtukula pakhomo ndi same story. Who can trust DPP again? A George Malemia zichitaniko manyazi…

  9. The story that Kondwani George Malemia Nankhumwa is writing about himself reminds you of that kind of adult movie which makes you desire to fast-forward to the cumshot because the star has made such a big romance that you can’t wait to appreciate the majestic grandeur of the orgasm. Either way, it will be big, the loss or the win of our leader of opposition who is beloved to those he opposes. Can he shed off some weight, he will fail to run if it ends up that he needs to run, for some other reason these people like running from one point to the other, one end to the other. Chimunthu running, Kutsaira running, Uladi ran too late, JB running, Muluzi running. Surely one of these two, George Malemia or Kondwani Nankhumwa is a running type. Will he ever be president? May be of DPP but not Malawi, don’t make him that

    1. One Malawi one nation my foot. When did you realise that unity is paramount in this country?. You lomwelised everything thinking that dpp will rule forever. Dpp sitikuyifunanso aMalawi.

  11. You say you respect elders yet you are wearing a hat while speaking to them.Kodi mmayesa nonsenu adakuimitsani tsano mumakataniko kumeku?

  12. Ummm I doubt if there can be one Malawi one nation under DPP which propagated ethicism, tribalism, regionalism, nepotism and one race government during it’s rule. All that looked to be gold was for the Lomwes. All road constructions were tilted towards the belt around Mount MJ. All good top positions went there. So for someone to stand tall at this hour and claim oneness under the same grouping is mockery of natural justice because memories are still fresh.

    1. In being sober and neutral and doing proper analysis to see if nepotism, regionalism and tribalism being sinister in the DPP, are they not status quo today with MCP? Just check in Lilongwe only, we have 8 cabinet Ministers- all Chewa by tribe thus including the President. We have two family members in the cabinet in Kasungu both Chewas. Then two cabinet ministers in Dowa, both Chewas too. And we have a deputy minister in Mchinji- another Chewa. This is half the cabinet. Isn’t this nepotism, tribalism and regionalism much worse than before in comparison? Follow the recent appointments heading some parastatals and yet another appointment on the pipeline at MBC, most of these are linked to the Chewa tribe in Central Region. Isn’t this behaviour replacing what we just thought we have removed by removing DPP? Check the NEEF loans, money for Malawi citizens not party loyalists, it is currently being distributed among the MCP and UTM party supporters, a practice that DPP used to do. If any neutral citizen not linked to any party dares to appear at these groups to register their names to get loans, they are chased away like dogs. Isn’t this segregation worse than was apartheid? If you are one of them, do your soul searching and voice for the voiceless who qued on 23rd June voting for Tonse not realizing that they were not eradicating nepotism, regionalism and tribalism but rather they were aggravating all these.

    2. Very true kaya wina akwiya akwiye ndithu. There was an evil plot under DPP to Lhomwelize Malawi. Ntchito komanso ndalama zaboma kumangogawa kwa a Lhomwe ngati Mana. Leston Muli ndiye ma billion amisonkho yathu watafuna kwambiri kungokhala ngati Njenjete…

    3. Nakhumwa should stop talking rubbish. It’s not possible for a Lomwe to uphold unity when for decades they marginalised northerners in all sectors of development including selection of students to secondary schools. Any norther voting for DPP must be stupid. Reject DPP it’s a party of thieves and crooks
