‘Yes Ndiimanso! Judas Iscariots can leave DPP’: Mutharika gets rapturous welcome on return from UK

After a successful tour of duty to the United Kingdom (UK)’ President Peter Mutharika returned home on Saturday to a rupturous welcome at the Kamuzu International Airport in the Capital City Lilongwe.

Mutharika said he is aiming at a landslide victory

And for the first time in four years, there also was a mammoth crowd that gathered at the gates of Kamuzu Palace that welcomed the President.

The arrangement was that it was going to be a usual arrival where he gets off the plane and head straight to State House.

But in both places, the mammoth crowd demanded that he should address them and Mutharika obliged.

At the airport  the atmosphere was electrifying as the uncharacteristically large crowd chanted his name in most parts of his brief address he could barely be heard in some cases.

Aimanso! Aimanso” (He will stand again) chants were deafening as the President started his address, to which he responded “Yes ndiimanso!”

In his speech, Mutharika thanked the people for their continued loyalty and support to the party.

“There are Judas Iscariots in the party who have been claiming that you people have abandoned me. The fact is it is them that are dumping the party.

“Let us work together towards 2019. Show the betrayers that we are united people. Show them that Peter has support,” said the combative Mutharika, looking energetic, fit and well.

The President told the crowd that he and the DPP are set for 2019 Tripartite elections and their catchphrase is ‘victory’.

“In 2012 after Bingu’s death, people abandoned the party. You and I worked together to revive the party and we won in 2014. We will win again in 2019. They are afraid of us. Some are betraying me. They want to create a chance for MCP. They (MCP) know that they cant beat me if I am the one standing.

He added: “I will not allow that. That is why I say let us stop the betrayals, tiwanyenyanyenya, tiwapondaponda, tiwangonjetsa.”

The President called on the members in his party “to stop the habit of betrayal and aim at working together to build the party”.

“I want them to know that I am unshakeable and I am going nowhere. We will destroy them in 2019. We will tear them to pieces and trample upon them,” said Mutharika to defeaning cheers.

At the gates to Kamuzu Palace Mutharika also repeated the message that DPP has faced hard times before and it is unbreakable. He told “the Judas Iscariots” that they can leave the party.

“Some are bent on confusing the party. Those who want to leave the party should leave. The Judas Iscariots can leave. The party suffered in 2012. But you and I worked to revive it and we won on 2014. We will again in 2019,” declared Mutharika.

Mutharika was returning from Britain where he attended the Commonwealth meeting and proceeded on a state visit to Scotland where he afdressed the Scottish Parliament.

On his trip  , Mutharika said he has wooed over 50 investors to come and start different businesses in Malawi.

He said he has, among others, signed an agreement with one investor interested to start a sugar manufacturing company in Nkhata Bay, and the owner of Malawi Mangoes promised him that they would like to extend to Salima.

Among other highlights of the trip, the President said he signed an agreement with the First Minister of Scotland to work together to achieve the Sustainable Development Goals, and opening a dental and pharmacy school

  2. kukakamila kumeneko muyaluka bwana president ndithu mu 2019 ndipo bon kalindo akunena zoona kuti kukakamila kwanuko chakwera akuwina basi

  3. Za ziii! It’s not funny telling us you’ll destroy MCP. Please tell us you’ll destroy poverty! Tell us how you will destroy blackouts and ensure that rural electrification takes place so that even villagers should start using clean energy and save our trees.
    Don’t think you’re being funny when you say ndiwanyenyanyenya. If you’re half as intelligent as your papers suggest, please tell us how you’ll turn around our ailing health system. Even those idiots chanting for you can’t afford health care when they fall sick. Their children go to schools that have no learning materials and demotivated teachers. And you know you’re just taking advantage of their ignorance. You’re exploiting their misfortune and you know it.

    Mr. President, you’ve just landed from England where there’s electricity 24 hours a day everyday. Where there’s good transport system, good houses and clean cities and villages. Where people have jobs and where both opposition and ruling party followers live in comfort and happiness. Mwaphunzirako chani? When will our country be half as beautiful as England? Did you convince any British company to open a factory and create jobs in Malawi? Did you convince Mrs May to fund that road or that power station? Or that distribution line that will bring electricity to the rural areas? This is the story we would like to hear bwana president.
    In you we trust, but we expect better than this. Malawi deserves better than ndiwanyenyanyenya stories

  4. We are now on real campaign battle. MCP n DPP with other small parties let’s GO GO.
    But I see MCP with Chakwera carrying day. Chilima the most fearful guy and his APM will not make it with less votes from South most MTL

  5. Peter Mutharika and his cronies (and many other politicians in Malawi) are political entrepreneurs who steal democracies by oversimplifying Malawi’s complex transformation challenges into cheap slogans that, like mirages to thirsty persons, promise quick resolution of their pain, knowing that such promises won’t materialise. Some of the empty promise makers may, as has been the case with cashgate and continuing state looting, have been part of the problem by diverting resources and policies to their own, private interests, instead of pursuing inclusive development. Such empty promises nefariously exploit people’s hope. They gain ground because groups and communities left behind in the division of the democracy and peace dividends want their democracy dividend now. Political entrepreneurs offer them hope that this will happen under their hand. They know that, like thirsty people, the disaffected do not have the luxury of time nor the tools to distinguish water from a mirage. We have a population of 80% uneducated and disfranchised populace who don’t know any better other than believing that there will be a better tomorrow and that these noisy airbags will bring it.

  6. Wow. So the DPP made sure it had party followers at the airport on yesterday. Now I know where all the truckloads people were heading to. Akadakhala kuti adabwera pa okha mwina zikadakhala zomveka….

  7. ” Mutharika gets a rupturous welcome from UK”

    Abale tandiuzeni meaning ya “rupturous”

    Mukuti “mammoth crowd” ndiye kuti chani? Anthu 100 okha kapena? Si ine ndikutero koma reporter wa Nyasa Times.

    APM man of the people!!!!!!!!!!!

    1. A welcome full of raptures such as ululations, excitement, or pleasure while you are raping the constitution of your own grouping. This is a meaning for that is word

  8. Hutton, you are right, these flies making noise are simply doing that out of jealousy. They know that if Peter stands, no one will defeat him. If they are men enough let them face him in 2019 instead of trying to bring chaos in this country

    1. Prescott and Hutton are you Malawians experiencing the same hardships like everyone else? Which planet are you from as I would like to join you. The Malawi situation has well gone beyond party politics. This is not like supporting soccer teams blindly. This is about our welfare and the preparation of maziko for the next generation. Malawi is in a real bad space right now for the whole world to see. The global social-economic statistics are saying so. In fact we all can feel it; Malawi is one, if not the poorest country in the world with the lowest Human Development Index. Malawians need work together for a common gaol that will define Malawi differently. It would require a group of very smart people and certainly not you guys. You are deep into petty politics and Kamuzu-type politics where you don’t question your own political leaders lest you’ll be killed. Pave way for smart people change Malawi fortunes….you’re certainly stumbling blocks.

  9. Those who have read and follow world and biblical histories can attest that when a leader begins to speak with such a tone and to show signs of being drunk with power; his days are numbered. In Malawi, we do not have to recount such occurrences in the presidency. Mr. President, tone down or else I see doom coming your way. Do not depend on the crowds and be cheated by them. Your Armageddon may be around the corner and your Euphrates (support from the people) may soon begin dry up. Watch out!

  10. Peter, did u see the crowd that went to welcome Mama JB? What about the crowd that goes to Mia. What about the divisions in your party? Peter, 2019 will not be as simple as those around you think. Ofcourse dont give Saulos any chance. You are better off than him. Just maintain him as Veep. I love my DPP

  11. Do you need any evidence that MCP is defeated before the day of elections? Now, if you say the guy has done nothing in his four years tell me why is this mammoth crowd goes into ecstacy with him? And this is central region where Chakwera is fastly losing the grip. Everyone can witness that MCP can not boast to be controlling the Centre. Can Chakwera attract a big crowd in the south as Kuntsaila is doing in the centre? Game is asleep for Chakwera. We told you that whether with demos or without demos the abusa will never taste the political power. The 2019 defeat is what will make him throw the towel looking at the wide difference of the votes. You can clearly see how the DPP is invading the centre. Your blindness in not seeing how you are losing the grip in the center is what will make you shocked after the results from MEC.
    Your support for Chilima is a fake one and Chilima knows the trick you are playing. How did you feel after refusing your petition? Mukuona ngati Chilimayo amaganiza ngati inu. You are now praising Chilima yet you have a candidate in Chakwera, is that not an insult to your candidate?

    1. A Santana I think mutu wanu suyenda bwino,kodi amene akunena kuti chilima ayimile Dpp ndi a mcp?and DPP ikupanga invade central region yake iti? Mukunena anthu omwe mudabweletsa pama truck kuti akachingamile prince of thieves, zimenezo zomwe akudandaula anthu ena a chipani cha DPP kuti mukupusitsa pitala

  12. The wife has forced him to say what he has said. Typical of Zimbabwe scenario under Mugabe. We shall see when time comes. John Tembo and Hetherwick Ntaba, the so called computer used to do things like this during Kamuzu’s regime where are they now? They claimed multiparty is war as they put in vernacular that matipate ndi nkhondo. How many times has Malawi gone to war with any country, let alone civil war? Perhaps the war they talked about referred to arguments in The National Assembly which is by all standards the essence of democracy to have dissenting views.

  13. Abwela ma investors angati baba since munayamba kulamulira muja amwene bodza ili magetsi ku Nkhatabay ko amatha two weeks asanayake ndiye sugar yo azizapanngira ndi chani unami awu wawo chePetulo

  14. Yes Mr President, the Judas Iscariots should leave the party.
    Ena akufanizira zitosi za mademo ndi Julius Malema. Julius Malema left ANC and he is still a force to reckon with. Zathuzi zichoke tione ngati maina awo angakumbukilidwe the next 72 hours.
    Enawo anadzolowera kulanda katundu wamasiye. Ndata was founded and constructed by the late Bingu and the late Ethel. It is only proper that their biological children inherit the property. Zomwe akufuna enawo ndi kuba kwenikweni.
    Ndamvanso kuti soon after APM’s arrival with that thunderous welcome, Mr Chakwera has started using dampers/ matewera to avoid the obvious. Chakwera is weighing the option of taking Roy Kachale Banda as his running mate as demanded by Amai. Izi zakwiitsa Mia ndipo nayenso wayamba kuvala matewera makamaka pogona akuti chifukwa waononga zambiri.

    1. This has gone beyond party politics Hatton. Malawi is in dire straits and we simply can’t afford to have the type of political leadership we currently are exposed to. Time has come not to support part leaders and political parties alike just so blindly. No wonder the world is saying that Malawi’s Human Development index is one of the lowest in the world; its because of people like you who are pulling the average down.

  15. DPP woyeeee 2019 bomaaaa wina afune olo asafune… Boma sasintha ngati chovala. We want continuity of development interventions in this country. Enanu mungolubwa lubwa remember one leader at a time…enanu go back to the pulpit…mukawadyerenso anthu ku kachisi

  16. Peter Mutharika has put his own DPP in a trance-like state, and is running steam ahead towards an oncoming train. DPP senior leaders are all paralysed and helpless as the party heads to a predictable disaster. The party probably diedwitbits founder in 2012……DPP now is a shadow of itself. I am not sure whether MCP, PP, DEPECO or AFORD are our answers either. We need major transformation of politics in Malawi. A new breed of thinkers to take the country forward. We are all tired of being labelled the poorest country in the world.

  17. ALAMU MWAKULA INU !!

Anthu akukonzekera kuti uchite manyazi, munthu wakuba agapange campaign anthu mkumumvera. Do proper research before kuwuza anthu kuti muyimanso.

      1. Mumayenda kuti inu akalitsiro ndi ozaza maziru/zikang’a kumapazi inu a Nguru, a Mang’anja, a Yawn ndiye ena otero? Mukunena kuyenda kwakwe kokasambitsa agalu ku Joni Kapena kokalima fodya kumpoto?

        Umphawi uli kumwerako ndiwomaunyadira? Chitani Manyazi. Anzanu amanyadira ku

  20. What Peter and his government should know is that winning in an alection is not a straight forward outcome. We know that DPP won from the opposition, PP lost when in power in 2014, therefore anything is possible at this stage of democratic Malawi. MCP at the current state is a force to reckon with. DPP should also not bank on the alliance it hopes to sign. History tells us that MCP and Aford lost to UDF in 1999 when in alliance, MCP and UDF lost to DPP in 2009 when in alliance. The only tested and tried winning formula is to provide services as demanded and liked by the populace. This is exactly what made UDF and DPP to win with majority in 1999 and 2004 respectively. Going forward, the current DPP by far falls short of this formula. There is increasing erosion of public trust and confidence in the current DPP. Unfortunately those in the party want to believe against this reality and therefore do not see need for improvement. The rest is for Malawians to judge come May 21, 2019.

  21. Welcome back bwana our reality in Malawi. At least you have seen and experienced how other political leaders have created a world of honey for their people where everything works. Bwana, now that you made a public declaration that “muimanso”, can others in the party also make public pronouncements to stand without their voice being drowned?

  22. what else can you expect from somebody who married somebody 30 years his junior. she can not do without state house . this is the arrogance that made Mugabe to have a shameful exit. I now understand when people say that APM is surrounded by beasts of prey and thieves and these are the people who have been feeding him with lies that he is popular. to the contrary, APM is not popular and people just want to eat his money and shame him at the polls.

  23. Nkhani iyi yoyimanso siyopikisana ndi Mcp koma kuchipani kwanu komweko ndiye mukwere pachulu nkumanyoza a chipani china muchedwa thanani konko nkumene mwasiyana maganizo ndale zopakana pakana tasiyani anthu awuzeni ngati mwasintha for good chifukw 4years yonseyi Dpp yawononha zinthu

      Dpp forget to win in 2019.
      Mulungu wakufulatilani

  25. You have the right to contest sir but wait a minute; what for? Your first term had shown that you are not in control. Black outs, shortages of drugs in hospitals, corruption and nepotism are the order of the day! The only reason you want to stand is to perpetuate the above evils and to keep power within your inner circle. At 80,the best is retire and enjoy your benefits baba….Chilima will take care of you.

  26. This is what we want to hear not those street kids gathered at Chileka to welcome a refuge.
    Peter is going to win. Chakwera watsegula mmimba kuona this large group. Compare those who marched on Friday with this gathering. If we had a vote yesterday or today ,it was going to be a technical knockout to J Bandana and those who marched combined. I thought there would be no people because JB was coming.This gathering is in the mcp home ground. What will happen when peter goes to the south Dpp home ground. With North no question ,I respect the northerners they are not stupid at all. They really know what to do and whom to vote Adada na wamama tonse wathu ndi Mrara Peter palije makani apa timuvoterenge peter
