Seasoned politician Wakuda Kamanga dumps MCP,  joins DPP

Former member of parliament for Kasungu north east Wakuda Kamanga has dumped Malawi Congress Party (MCP)  and rejoined the ruling Democratic Progressive Party (DPP).

Kamanga was Monday morning welcomed into the DPP by party secretary general Grezelder Jeffrey in Lilongwe.

His defection to the ruling party has buoyed the party officials who are facing stiff political competition from the opposition who have ganged up to wrestle power from President Peter Mutharika during the Constitutional Court sanctioned presidential election slated for July 2.

Kamanga said he decided to rejoin DPP, which he once served as its secretary general until the death of former president Bingu wa Mutharika, because of the development projects and programs which the incumbent President Peter Mutharika has lined up across the country.

In her speech when welcoming him at the DPP headquarters in Lilongwe, Jeffrey said Mutharika would win the fresh polls with landslide.

DPP vice president for Central Region Uladi Mussa urged members to open doors for those who want to join DPP-UDF alliance.

Kamanga’s defection to the DPP comes barely a day after Rumphi central MP Chidumpha Mkandawire and two others  Bessie Chirambo and Henry Mumba who have joined the opposition Tonse Alliance having dumped the DPP.

  2. Useless politician. Kamanga is just trying to be relevant but it won’t work. He is just useless.

  3. Kasungu do not tolerate nuisance like him. He was elected MP when he was fully committed to the MCP but he failed to primary elections for second term due to double standards. MCP is stable party in Malawi and we do not tolerate prodigal sons and daughters no. So all the best to the opposition come 2 July, 2020.

  8. ‘Seasoned politician’, meaning what exactly? Are you trying desperately to decorate him to look as if he brings any value to the DPP? Does the DPP really welcome him with the thought of ‘this is what we’d been missing to make the party strong?’ Methinks not!

  10. He is a political prostitute who moves from one party to the other like a running headless chicken. Once the mula is gone he will be back to Tonse Alliance this time through UTM as he would think he is clever not to come back to MCP. He lost the MPship anyway.

  11. Za zii no weight added rugged politicians.lost his membership of parliament to young energetic educated lady madalitso kambauwa in kasungu.he will even be chased in his own constuency.he will fail to coax even 5 people in his own former constituency.There are old wine politicians in central region chilumpha sitambuli mtaba uladi wakuda.You have lost meaningful people chimunthu and kutsaira a party that is going to fail.Jefrey ia an an old song in kk he cannot mobilise people.They all failed to get elected to parliament what can they offer now.A waste of time quantity cannot surpass quality.udf and dpp of Bingu was able to defeat mcp because in central region all meaningful people and figures were supporting bakili.the chakakalachaziya,stambulis malewezi chimunthu chilumpha uladi wakuda.only chimunthu and malewezi now are a deal and a force to reckon not people in the kaliba of wakuda kamanga.The cannot appeal to the situation.its not about a person but unity.Look on chakwera winning team chilima joice banda khumbo sidik mia manganya chisi chiwambo kaliati kazombo mkaka winiko mtambo mikaya masangwi harry mkandawire chimwendo suleimana gotani hara mwenefumbo chihana.big figures from all the three region tribes yao tumbuka sena chewa ngoni tonga ngonde.DPP and UDF think twice you have no where to go start making peace with chakwera and be apologetic to malawians donot be pompous you are going out by ballot soon the same malawians you are taking for granted you will need them to sympathize with your stupidity you are doing the same people you are hacking beating burning them in their houses for no reason you will need them.malawians are not fools.they have the right to choose light not darkness.your evrllans you better stop them for you will oand in trouble in the two months coming.if you want to kill people hague will try you.Tonse ndife a malawi tonse alliance with chakwera and chilima is the only future of malawi because God annointed chakwera to be the sixth malawi president and APM one term president according to prophet liabunya september 2014 prophecy which I have both print and video tape.Malawi wa tonse wafika no regionalism tribalism.no region is bigger thsn malawi no tribe is bigger than the other.we are all malawians.one malawi one nation is what people in all region needs.Love and Unity is what people want in Malawi. Amen.

  14. Help me good people.
    Who is Wakuda Kamanga? Isn’t this the man who has changed colours a number of times?

  15. He was DPP, after Bingu’s death, He joined PP, now he is back to DPP. In short, as the dog goes back to its vomits, so is a fool who goes back to his folly. Proverbs 26:11. Umo ntchewe yikuwelera ku bukuzi lake ndimo chindere chiwelera ku uzeleza (undere) wake.

  18. Another political prostitute. Shameful. MCP should have kicked this prostitute Kamanga out. This man was a Bingu arse licker in fact he was the arse kicker No. 1

  20. He will soon get “concerned” and now that he has teamed up with his long time friend, Salim Bagus, this is revival of Concerned Citizens. Only time will tell

  21. Good riddance!!!!! what can Malawians politically benefit from this old clueless man? All old clueless politicians should camp in the DPP/UDF alliance. Their theme is to steal and enrich themselves period, not yet satisfied with what they have already plundered.

    1. Mmmm! No, this is wrong, no one should be castigated for making their choice! Everyone has a freedom of choice and it is a birthright! Musasikoneze Malawi, ndi ufulu wake musiyeni!

  25. After Bingus death some member counted out the DPP and left the party of PP. NEVER ever count out THE DPP and UDF. Never lost an Election while in power. God is great. We cant go back to the York and nkhanza of MCP.

    1. Leaving in denial. MCP of today is a darling of many.andcompleted it’s transformation after departure of Dausi and Ntaba.
      Mukuchedwa ku DPP, just leave, unless you are a beneficiary of plunder and thievery.

    2. To say DPP never lost an election while in power is stretching the truth a bit, last year they clearly lost to MCP before they connived with MEC and Jane Ansah to steal the election, hence the annulment. Deny it all you like, it’s a fact. Additionally, if the going by the odds you present here that are premised on DPP never having lost an election, why all the prevarication to run away from the July 2 vote? Appealing the case, using coronavirus as an excuse by cooking up figures, attempting an illegal, ill-advised lockdown, what are you afraid of DPP never loses elections?

  26. From his looks one can easily tell that Kamanga is broke and DPP has just come to his rescue and has no better option, but to lean against it as long as he get food on the table from the stollen money..

  29. Tit for tat – The battle has just started and the battle field is full of arsons, artileries, grenaders, machine guns, machets, landmines, nuclear bombs, tackticks etc the one who knows best how to use these weapons will win the battle.

  31. Kikikikiiiiiiii, jumping back into the titanic. Another landslide kodi, like last time? Without tippex and without registering little milakhos, won’t be easy this time.

  33. What a waste of space …….expired politicians trying to make hay while the sun shines
