President Chakwera meets his predecessor Mutharika at ‘Nyekhwe Palace’: No retribution
President Lazarus Chakwera and First Lady Monica Chakwera on final Sunday of the year paid a courtesy call to immediate past president Peter Mutharika at his beachside retirement home in Mangochi.
State House spokesperson Brian Banda confirmed to Nyasa Times about the meeting, saying the President and the First Lady took to Mutharika “gifts of solidarity and compliments of the season.”
Nyasa Times understands that Chakwera assured Mutharika that there will be “no retribution” and that that he looked forward to receiving the outgoing president’s “counsel”.
Mutharika’s personal secretary Linda Salanjira said the meeting was “cordial” and that the former president said that all help would be made available to his successor.
President Chakwera has been on vacation at Chikoko Bay State Lodge on the shores of Lake Malawi in Monkey Bay, Mangochi District.
Mutharika’s private sprawling retirement home christened as ‘Nyekhwe Palace’ is at Chisigele Village, Traditional Authority Mponda in Mangochi.

Mr chakwera aona kuti Vp wake he’s just overrated but he’s got nothing to offer apart from politiking basi. That’s the way to go Mr President
Koma ngati ali ndi mulandu sizoti uthe.
Wishing former president Mutharika good health
Mwawondatu, batala ndi majarine wa ulele zinatha.
the day Chakwera went to meet APM marks the end of democracy. For in Malawi we now have a club of corrupt and shameless rulers and former rulers. Everything is lost. We are a nation in wilderness.
Bodza thats the spirit w want mafuna azidana nde democracy
Talk Talk Chakwera is Judas Iscariot of democracy and electoral promises. Malawians should forget all the promises Tonse made. Ask yourselves how SKC feels seeing Chakwera wining and dining with APM. Zinthu zathani zashinta.
Aaah….these are the hallmarks of a genuine statesman. nonwithstanding, he had to humble himself to meet the ex. President not vise verse. Well, some m
I like what Chakwera did. He is really the man of God
Man of God or A Hypocrite and there are many hypocrites in the Holy Bible.
Talk Talk Chakwera should desist from prejudicing the investigations and charges criminal APM has to face if Tonse promises are for real. Talk Talk Chakwera is beginning to turn the office of President into personal to holder like all dictators and more so Kamuzu. Stop and desist. Just as we elected you we can vote you out Talk Talk.
For a change we now have a true Statesman.
I don’t think anyone who is a Cadets addict and so ridiculous as to name his retirement home “Nyekhwe” would have the courage to propose a meeting with someone who sent him packing.
Poor fellow. His words of “not letting MCP rule this country again” are haunting him.
