No way Malawians will ever vote for MCP to rule again, says Mutharika

President Peter Mutharika continues to state that Malawi Congress Party (MCP) will never rule this country again, as Malawians denounced the party and its rule in 1993.

Mutharika: No way MCP will rule Malawi again

The MCP lost its monopoly on power in a 1993 referendum and was roundly defeated in the country’s first free elections.

In opposition since 1994, the MCP remains a major opposition force in Malawi. It is strongest in the Central Region, populated by ethnic Chewa, most of whom are Christians.

Mutharika states that MCP terrorised Malawi for 31 years under Kamuzu Banda dictatorship which he said was “not only one party system but one person dictatorship”

In his  interview with Aljazeera television where he reiterated that he won the elections, Mutharika said MCP will remain in the opposition.

“In any even the  Malawi Congress Party was associated with violence, killings, people disappearing, people thrown in the river to be eaten by crocodiles. People remember that.

“There is no way, I can assure you that, there is no way Malawians will ever vote for Malawi Congress Party,” said Mutharika, adding “that’s why they have lost the last six elections .”

Mutharika said MCP lost the May elections but they are challenging the presidential results to save face and as their routine to reject the outcomes of the polls since they were outsed from power in 1994.

He also went further to claim that six international organisations declared the elections which Mutharika was re-elected as “free, fair and credible”.

Mutharika, among others, cited the European Union (EU), Commonwealth, African Union (AU), United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) and Southern African Development Community (Sadc) observer missions as among those that declared the polls “free, fair and credible”.

Malawi Electoral Commission (MEC) declared Mutharika winner, giving him another five-year mandate, after he narrowly defeated his main challenger MCP)torchbearer Lazarus Chakwera with 1 940 709 votes against 1 781 740.

In the interview with Aljazeera, Mutharika further claimed that the international observers went as far as declaring the country’s elections as an example to the rest of Africa.

He said: “It was completely free, fair and credible… the opposition lost the elections and they decided not to accept and are trying to save their face.”

During this year’s 74th session of the United Nations General Assembly (Unga74) in New York, Mutharika also stated in his address that the elections were credible and accused MCP of perpetrating post-election violence.

  2. Galu owipa iwe. We voted them to rule many times koma anthu akubanu. This time around muzilamulilana ku ntundu kwanu konko. No sane Malawian will give you an easy run. Mbuzi zopanda mano. Galu

  4. The only reason DPP returned to power in 2014 and beyond is through rigging otherwise this party can never be voted into power bar 2009

  5. The MCP will never come into power again,forget it.Do not think that Malawians are fools.MCP has enough blood of our people to be voted in again.It is MCP that hated Tumbukas for nothing just because of doing well in classes?How would a People’s Party hate the Tumbukas? Who brought multi-party systeme in Malawi if not Tumbukas you dogs? Who formed AFRICAN NYASALND CONGRESS in 1944? WHO FORMED MALAWI CONGRESS PARTY?WHO BROUGHT MULTI-PARTY Nation in the country? Malawians,call a spade a spade.Northerners have dearly fought for our independence and today they are enemies of the same land they fought for? Orton Chirwa who formed the MCP was later murded by a Malawian medical doctor known as NTABA in Zomba criminal prison by lethal enjection.LONG LIVE MPOTO and also,LONG LIVE MALAWI !!!!!!!!!!!!!

  6. UKUNSO NDE KUKULA MADALA. KULEPHELA ZOONA KUVOMELEZA KUTI MCP YOMWE YAKHALA KU OPPOSITION NTHAWI YONSEYI YINAPEZA MA VOTE AMBIRI KUPOSA CHIPANI CHANU CHOMWE CHINAWONONGA NDALAMA ZA MISONKHO YATHU.STATE HOUSE MUKUKHALA YILI MU CONSTITUENCY YA MCP, LILONGWE YONSEYI MCP YINASENSA. KAYA MUFUNE KAYA MUSAFUNE MCP YILOWANSO MU BOMA

  7. Who voted for you mr 30% old man? You’ve got no mandate to rule. You’re better off just shutting your toothless mouth off.

  8. who are you pitala to tell malawians or brain wash us about who to rule us next.
    idiot!!!
    you were busy shagging slay women in south bend for yrs and you just came here on your bros sympathy and lying to us with a 5 page CV yet noone recognise your academics where you came from. packs and packs of lirs you are mounted with old cow

  9. Chindere chachabechabe . Rerun is the must munthu wakuba Savomera koyamba. MCP will win again when rerun takes place. It will be difficult for DPP kuti azaberenso.

    1. Forget about rerun. Mukutsatira mulandu ku court koma ? Its easier for a Carmel to enter through the needles eye than for the court to order a re-run. MCP simply does not have a case. One wonders why they had to come to court in the first place. I guess it was pure malice. Kusafuna kuvomera kuti analuza. Let chakwera go back to the pulpit because that’s where he belongs. God is ready to forgive him just like he did with yona.

      1. When MEC together with stake-holders make a decision it becomes binding. No original copies, no list of goods received, no audit report,,,,Wake up and smell the coffee retard,,,

  10. APM is fed a diet of lies so much that he is getting thin and becoming more and more delusional!

    It’s a fallacy for a president to be convinced that MCP can not be back in power when he is spending sleepless nights dishing out tax payers money in bribes and trying so hard to avoid a rerun that he knows he will lose to MCP!

    Get real APM the god father of the Lomwe mafias!!!!

    1. Koma iweyo wamuona chakwera of late. Check daily times ya lero 15.10.19 front page. Chakwera mutu wayamba kuchepa. It’s really sad, but the guy needs to quickly wake up to the fact that he is wasting time chasing a case he will never win because he simply does not have the evidence. Ngati ma witness ayamba kuthawa okha kaphale asanayambe kuwasosola nthenga, what does that tell you ?

  12. Paja kwanu si Juno.Wait and court declare you a winner pamene uzawona kuno and stones come for you

  14. Udzakula liti iwe palipose kumangofuna kuyambanitsa mitundu ya anthu? Manyaziso ulibe phokoso lokhalokha chosecho umadziwa kuti palibe ndimodzi yemwe mwa ife a Malawi amene amakondwela nawe ndipo umve lero kunyoza MCP kulingati kutukwana kholo choncho ukudzitembelera wekha ndithu, kuchoka iwe sukudzabwelaso wina ndipo kachipanikoso kadzathera pomwepo,unawonako kuti denga lopanda mizati lukutha zilumika?Mtima ngati chikhanila uzifunilako anzako zabwino pajatu ndi zosiyilana siyilana izi. Ena atiyendetsa iweyo mmmmmmm utitaya palipose ndipo sitikafika. Padzana paja amipingo atayitani kuti mukapemphere udakana koma anzako onse anapita ndumo unali ndimanganizo oti udzabere aaaaaaaaaaaaa manyazi ulibe mkomwe Mulungu sabeledwa ndipo nkhondo amamenya kumbukila nkhani ya pharaoh ngati umawerenga bible.

    1. ADAD sapemphera ndi guru la satanic shame on you dzinyawu dzovalira pa mtunda,,,, DPP sikusiya boma mpaka 2084 woohoo

  15. To be raw, this man people call president is the dullest creature that ever walked on Malawi soil. He thinks he is schooling us when I need fact he’s making a fool of himself.
    This continued reference to EU, SADC, USA, Commonwealth sounds like a school kid reciting a passage given by the class teacher. Have you ever wondered why he’s avoiding UNDP? It’s because of the damning UNDP funded Auditors Report which in short discredited Jane Ansah’s performance during the May 21 elections. And yet poor APM keeps singing the same song over and over.
    And he thinks DPP has so far done better than MCP? A matter of self centred opinion if you ask me. Everyone knows the country has sunk very low since 1994, worse still the Lhomwes took control.
    God’s ways are not yours Mr. Acting president. It won’t be long before MCP wrests power from DPP. Mark my words.

  16. Peter Mutharika don’t put petrol on fire please! You and Jane Ansah rigged the elections, everybody is aware about this, according to DBO you were number 2, number one was Chakwera. So just shut-up your old mouth and wait for the ruling from our court. We know you bought some judges, but this time it will not work. Our God is watching and he is about to shame you with your dirty games. You’re evil, Malawi needs a God fearing leader, not a thief like yourself

    1. FACT IS MR DAUSI WAS PART OF MCP A HYAENA DOES NOT BECOME SHEEP BY ENERING INTO A SHEEP PEN
      CHAKWERA WAS NEVER PART OF THE OLD DICTATORSHIP REGIME BUT DAUTSI WAS PART OF THE SYSTEM.
      SO WHICH MCP IS PETER REFERING TO ????

  19. People denounced MCP just like the way they’ve denounced DPP. Because as things stand DPP is worse that MCP. These family Parties, he must ask AFORD,UDF,PP & now this is last phase of DPP whilst MCP is still standing. Whoever comes to succeed Mutharika that will be the end of DPP.

  20. I don’t support mcp koma l must say kuti peter mutharika is heartless ndi mbava zake zo in government. Wait, there is a re run of election ndi pamene uti uzawone nyakhwi. You say malawians will never vote for mcp, nanga over million anavotera mcp ndi ndani? Ndiwe chisiru wamva? Wandikwitsa bwanji

  22. So Mr Mtchona sees himself more Malawian than over one Million people who voted for it? Is Mr Mtchonas’ quest to have MCP never rule Malawi the reason why they rigged elections?

  23. 1.7 Million people voted for MCP ONLY 158 THOUSAND gave the gap so is this statement true?

  25. This explains why Jane Ansah declared Peter the winner in an election that he ( Peter) lost. The declaration that MCP will not rule this country again makes it possible for MEC Commissioners to connive with DPP to rig elections in order to live by the declaration. The secret has been unveiled.

  26. Iiiiii galu iyi yotchedwa pitala ikusokosa bwanji.Bwanji kudikila acourt anzanu chiyambileni ku khoti kuli ziii inuyo paliponse kulubwa lubwa “nidawina” kupita ku UN nidawina mcp ndiyo ikuzetsa chisokonezo. Mwaiwala inuyo msanapite kuja tippex ndiye anayamba kufika . word of advise ; shout up ur mouth and open ur big ears .

  27. And you are terrorizing us now. Unfortunately you are not God. He changes time. Fortunately the terrorists that were in MCP then are in DPP camp and we can feel their presence. They’ve just changed goal posts.

  29. You said you are not Malawi. So how come you speak for us?? Just shows how detached you are to reality.

    1. Of course he is not Malawi but he is a malawian. In English grammar Malawi means a country where people leaving in are called malawians. Misunderstanding ppl are bxy demorshing the country instead of the man or woman they are tired with. Feeble thinking try to think bfr u react.

  30. But they actually did! 1 million plus the tippex difference was 80K unverified! We would rather vote for MCP than your shit corrupt govt greedy assholes taking this nation to a dumpster

  31. So those who voted for MCP are not Malawians!!!! You should have said you want the party dead coz you don’t want to be checked on your abuses

  32. Stupid thinking from someone who once lived in a civilized nation. What make his party exceptional? His presidency is fraudulent one marred with acute corruption. It’s retrogressive thinking or even myopic. This is democratic dispensation where citizens choose who to vote for & that’s why constitutional court is probing his tippex presidency.

  33. Fosek stupid mntharika we voted for MCP and your girl friend hule ansah is the one ushered you to that position. Mr tpex we just counting down.

  34. stupid article
    you the writer knows that the elections were rigged
    stupid cadet
    STUPID WORDS FROM THE HIGHEST OFFICE

    1. hahaha denial ikuphani ndithu…..MCP fucked big time and peter lackson and team cheated chakwera lol

    1. Timusiye azilamulabe chifukwa iyeyu ndi amene anawina. Chakwera abwerere ku church paja anathawa ngati yona. Akapanda kubwerera nsomba imumeza.

  39. So why did you rigged. You failed miserably on the May 21 elections. Your MEC failed to bring vbefore the court audited report, form 66c and original copies of results sheets. You will not get away in this elections case. KKKKKKKK useless Muthalika your time is drawing closer. DPP is get to the end your hate of MCP is getting to the end. These remarks shows that you really rigged elections your not voted Mr. Muthalika.

  41. This strongly justifies what Golden Matonga has said and I quote: President Peter Mutharika is always “uninspiring and cold-hearted.” When the citizenry are maiming each other, the economy is being ravaged and the very social fabric is degenerating, the margins for error are much higher than when a President is clueless. Matonga is right, just going by this nonsense one can see that “Mutharika has indeed neither the answers nor the skill to solve the crisis. Or the intuition to let others, be it international community or local enablers, help him solve the crisis. Golden is spot on: “When Malawi needed a unifier, here goes President Mutharika projecting a deeper image unacceptable to millions. When the tension needed a cool head of a pacifier, he is busy druming up the tension and let everyone know he cares little about the fate of this country. Awanso a president awaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa………….

  42. MCP will rule this country again.Even time MCP was suppose to rule this country had it been the elections were transparent.You must be ashamed of yourself with your remarks because the most majority of Malawians did not vote for you but they voted for MCP.In 2014 DPP lost the elections also,so stop being bossing for nothing.All you know is to steal peoples rights and votes.

  45. mcp lost those yrs bcoz people had no say and we actually dint know how the system just burned or threw the balot papers away and declare they had won. you see, iweyoso uli kwa america so shut your bendy lips idiot.
    dausi ntaba can answer this osati iwe dzimwe mikono ngati wil8bala ya pa komboni.mxiiii
    ukulankhula cotosi wamva

  47. More Malawians actually voted for MCP than any other party, only that something went in results management. The works of devil
