State funded FND hit at Chilima, Callista Mutharika: Demand their resignation

July 20, 2018 Alfred Chauwa –Nyasa Times 59 Comments

Forum for National Development (FND) which is reportedly being bankrolled by the regime, has asked State  Vice President Saulos Chilima and former First Lady Madam Callista Mutharika to resign from their respective offices.

Speaking to reporters in Lilongwe the Forum coordinator Fryson Chodzi said Callista Mutharika has been receiving salary without going to work as coordinator of Safemotherhood.

“We would like to remind Madam Calista Mutharika that receiving a salary and benefits without work is indistinguishable theft and plunder of public resources. As such she has been stealing from the government and poor Malawians and she can do us a favour by returning the money and benefits she has been receiving if she has to be taken seriously as a person who wish Malawi well,” said Chonzi

Chonzi saidthose who comes with equity must come with clean hand.

“She has no moral ground to hold anybody accountable when she has been abusing the same system.”

Chodzi said FND also finds the continued holding on to the position of the Vice Presidency by Chilima as odd considering how holding on to such position contradicts the message he has been conveying to the public.

“Notably, Hon. Chilima has persistently talking  about performance based reward and remuneration as key for transformation of the country, yet here is a person who will spend the next 10 months being paid and living on state coffers without any performance,” said Chodzi.

He said contradictory, Chilima has time and again accused politicians of ‘personification and glorification of leaders’ and as good as that might sound, himself is reveling within the same personification and glorification as evidenced by how the United Transformation Movement has been coined and formed.

“ The whole movement is all about him. The movement is about SKC. The branding is about him and not a single day has he stood up to accuse the Movement of glorifying him. It seems to us that as he is talking against personal glorification, he is at the same time enjoying the same just as any other politician would.”

Additionally,.Chilima has expressed discomfort by politicians for letting women dance for them yet in all the meetings for his so called movement, women are dancing in glorifying him and not once has he stood to accuse them.

“This is paradoxically a huge contradiction on his part,” said Chodzi.

He said the most arduous thing is that the Chilima Movement dubs him as the ‘Only Hope for Malawi’this is strange and highest order of personal glorification and at worst this is dictatorship in making.”

  1. Chonzi ukatsegule MPSR ukawonemo kapena umufunse Civil Servant. In Malawi we receive salaries for filling vacances.

  2. Most governments, which I assume Malawi as well, have lifetime benefits for former presidents, vps, and their families. If Malawi has this clause somewhere, Chilima and Calista will continue to enjoy the benefits including salaries for the rest of their lives. Both Bakili Muluzi and Joyce Banda still get paid to this day. Chilima has been stripped off all his duties by the undemocratic DPP because he is against them forgetting that he is the president of the country not the Lhomwe party. Why do you think almost everyone wants to be either president or vp? Ask people like Msowoya, Chaponda and Mia. It’s because they know they will be set for life! Do your research people!

  3. If indeed Callista is being paid d without putting in any work then the government should be put to task as to why it is not doing its job by firing her. How many more are ghost workers then. In any case there are so many senior servants who aren’t working but are on full salary. These people either don’t deliver on what they were employed to do or are forever using govt resources to run their private businesses. These include PS. We are all paying the President and he won’t performing.

  4. Kuno ku Malawi tiri ndi ma opportunists ambiri ena mwa iwo ndamenewa mukuti a FDH kaya FDD kaya FDN anthu aulesi akufuna kudya nawo ka k145mita kaja. Alibe nzeru ndi manyazi omwe.They are cowards and they will remain beggars

  5. The FND is simply exposing the government on how it is abusing our hard earned money zomwe MRA ikutifinya daily. Let’s assume Calister was still supporting this government I don’t think tinakaziwa. Ine ngati sindikupita kuntchito what I know employer is supposed to hold on to my salary because I am not working. Again employer is suppose to fire me. Koma here they are trying to push the blame to only madam.

    As for the VP vuto ndi anthu imwe akufuna abuse yazinthu izipitilira. Now because VP akususa amuyika Pa bench pomulanda ntchito. We know this is very common at Capital Hill.

  6. Cashgate, I am told, was a term given to monetary transactions where people were being paid without delivering any goods or rendering any service. If indeed one is getting money without working how different is that from cashgate?
    Fryson and team congratulations for seeing what opposition funded CSOs are not seeing. Next time tackle the maula house. You are the hope of Malawi from the CSO fraternal.

  9. Even by counting comments down the line it is in favour of Chilima to lead,
    So Mr chozi kaya choka what ever your name is , plz give us a break ndi nkhalamba zako, we are after Chilima this time around.
    Weather u like it or not forget about ache mbwiyakowo to get back to power in 2019.
    I have never voted b4 even though am in early 30’s but this time around am voting for SKC Chilima yomweyo kuti wa wawa.

  10. This is also a dubious grouping, if Callista is receiving salary while she is not going to work, then who is not doing his/her job here? What does employment act says on absconding of duties without a reason? SKC came into power just because of the voters, some people voted for DPP because of the Veep so if you want this dude to resign, then the call has to come from two-thirds of the 2014 General Elections voters, not just a team of three people (Malawi has a population of more than 17million), otherwise let him finish his term.

  11. Is there anyone of us who gets a salary without working? Of course NO. How come then that Chilima and Callista are receiving their salaries and other perks without working?

    1. On chiliima part i think he is not abusconding dutes…
      We never voted for DPP… but APM and SKC.
      Chilima is out of DPP not government… he is still servibg malawians

    1. Onseso milomo yawo ili psyu simatenda amenewa. Akufuna ndalama zogulira mankhwala awa.

  13. kodi accountant amene amatumiza masalary anthu akumajomba ku ntchitoyo mutu wake sumagwira ntchito . olo ine kupeza account yanga kuli ndalama ya ku ntchito komwe sipitako ndizitenga . AMALAWI MUZIGANIZA MUKAMAPANGA ZINTHU KODI NDALAMA ZA BOMA MUKUONA NGATI ZA MASIYE ETI?

  14. If the VEEP is not working let the president fire him if he can why not commenting on the K145000, muphulika nazo ndalama zimenezo ngati Yudasi

  15. Nanunso a chodzi ndiye mukuti chaninso anthu okuti mukuthandizidwa ndi boma ndiye munganene chanzeru apa.mesa nanunso mwadyanawo ndalama zachinyengo K145m.Angokufumbatitsani kangachepe ali pitani mukanene za chilima ndi callista.Mudyeretu ndalama zakubazo chaka chamawa pa ulendo basi.Mufune kaya musafune DPP ikuthotholedwa basi.

  17. Chonzi or what ever yo call yourself, Before Chilima and Calista resign can you please tell your brother to give us back the 145 milion. can you also give us back our bilions from the maizegate and please dont forget the funds you took from Escom….dont think we are stupid we see and may nxt year its our time to speak

  19. Chilima sapanga resign palibe chimene walakwitsa iye. He is available for any job yomwe abwana ake angamutume kuti agwire. Ngati sakumupatsa ntchito nde mukawafunse bwana akeko kuti azimupatsa zochita. Chilima sanalakwe kalikonse kuti achite resign. APM ndi chilima anayambana za ku chipani ndipo sizikukhudza boma. So APM shd find a way kuti zabomazo ziziyenda. Otherwise case ya chilimpha ilipo kale. Judge ananena kale kuti palibe angapange fire vice president without serious issue. Komanso poti vuto lukhudza anthu awiri nde why demand kuti mmodzi shd resign? Ask the other too to resign or amene akukanika kugwira ntchito ndi mzake apange resign ndiyeyo

  20. Fryson? Ndiye kuti chiyani? Please educate me folks. And who created this dubious organization? This is a complete waste of scarce resources. I can only suspect this as another way designed by APM and DPP to syphon money from government coffers to finance the party. As for Mr. Fryson, please note that Callista did not give herself the office she is holding. Blame APM. With regard to SKC, he is VP whether you like it or not. Its just that you Mulakhos would feel comfortable only if a VP were Lhomwe. But you know this would be a tall order since no one would vote for you.

    Sad, isn’t it? SKC will resign as the time to round up all thieves approaches.

  21. Kaya mukuti Chonzi kaya wina ndi Kampaundi, these are stupid guys. Whether you like it or not politics are changing in Malawi. Your love for money will keep haunting you. Think twice when conducting yourself these ngalamba will leave you shortly. Malawi is for young people wake up.

  22. Ngati mumamva kuti zitsiru za pa Malawi, nde ndi zimenezi…………………………….!!

    Azanu anzeru the likes of Kajoloweka, Trapence and Mtambo have gone to court against thieves, and didn’t waste time making noise like this!! Tadzioneni dzili ndwiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii

    Nanunso atola nkhani mumangolondola zili zonse, abale ndi awa omweeeeeeeeeeeeee atisokoseeeeeeeeeeee!!

  23. So these stupid dudes have been paid to speak on behalf of DPP?…Where are we going with these corrupt minded set?Remember what goes up will surely come down one day.

  26. You people are a waste of space. DPP is a party full of thieves. They still from the government to run party activities. That is what Chilima is talking about. The money which APM has stolen was deposited in DPP account, the money from Maizegate was meant for DPP. Chilima is not DPP VP, he is a constitutional VP of the Republic of Malawi and who has told you that he is not working.

    1. Komano ngati iwe Cognitive ukukanika spelling ya “steal” nkumalemba “still” sindiye kuti mwina ndiwe mbuzi?

  27. Bwana 7777999, you are worried that people are quiet on 145 million? People have been quiet for a long time about an over K800 million house being constructed at Maula. Ironically even you 7777999 have been loudly quiet on this obscene and Iack of transparency expenditure.

  28. Anthu opepera zitsiru izi za FND why you acuse SKC and Kaliati hence mk 145 milion waba mbuyakoyo iwe wangoti ndwiiii osanenapo kanthu komaso if you remember Joice Banda atachoka mu DPP yakoyo koma ali VP sankalandira salary? usangoti ndwiii ngati ukunyengedwa apa undiyankhe SKC timuikabe pa mpando.

  29. Please keep ma-recordings amemewa so that nthawi ikafika tidzawone zochita nawo

  30. Rubbish. How much have you been paid by DPP? You are THICK and IGNORANT. Go to hell with your THIEVES.

  32. True. Chilima and Callista are hypocrites. Callista used to receive a huge salary corruptly and now she has become an angel?

  33. It is lack of prudence, to put it politely, to insult any tribe, be it Lhomwes, Tumbukas, etc. There’s no way any aspiring presidential candidate can win without the Lhomwe vote. And you need as many Lhomwes as possible in order to get the presidency. Again, Prudence, is the polite word.

  34. No need to come to the public through media. Let the concerned office do it’s job by following the procedures about misconduct by absconding duties. Malawi Government has these procedures already in place. What is special with these people. Abwanao ankatinena kuti ma Civil servants kujombajomba koma iwoo pano aonjeza. Mwina paja mwana akaphunzira kuimba wenzulo amakaimba ndi m’bwengete momwe pogona.kkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk

  36. A Chodzi, Malawi needs constructive leaders, Zomati, alomwe, achewa, atumbuka,ayao, nzakale kale. The minds of majorities in DPP, MCP, PP, Aford… Is about regionalism, That’s why Malawi is still poor up to now.. we have been blended in that anyone who joins politics is a thief and just wants to satisfy their own berries, no wonder a third of our Parliament is made up of retied officers from the previous governments who have stolen alot from the government and tax payers and business tycoons.. my Malawi in fire, I fear!!!

  37. A Chodzi mukufuna kutiuza chani apa. Cayo ya ku kawale inakukanikani mutadya ndalama za Unicef lero mukulubalubwa chani apa. By the way did you refund the money you stole from Unicef

  38. Chilima wachepa. He must indeed resign. He cant serve two masters. Otherwise kubomaku azikhala very compromised and he shall work hard to frustrate Govt business. Thats retrogressive and he shall be a danger to the citizenry who are serving the Govt of the day. So baby chilima must indeed resign if he is honourable enough.

  40. Ha ha ha ha ha!!!!! Mr Chodzi that’s the more reason why we are saying NO!! to the DPP. By DPP I mean both Chilima and his master APM. Mudzipita mwatibera kokwana. Mr Chodzi you are avery honest man. You have admitted that DPP together with Calista and Chilima are all thieves who are stealing from Malawians. That is very right. They must goooo!!!

  41. Those FDN leaders or whatever called are very dulls people. Why attacking Rt Hon VP? Was voted in the office by Malawian people and should be respected. Who give those FDN mandate to speak on behalf of Malawian against the second in command?

  43. AYAMBE KUTULA PANSI UDINDO NDI PITALA CHIFUKWA CHOLANDIRA K145M APO BIII, CHILIMA YOMWEYO KUTI WAWAWAAAAAH!!!!!!!!

  44. Chodzi Chodzi the messenger of the darkness in all kinds of wrong, mwadziwaliti kuti Madam Calista is taking a salary without doing any work? Just because she is siding the V.P basi muziti akuba? What a shame, inuso your time will come this is dpp and we as Citizens of this country we are watching people like you and God is not asleep and the word of God is still Sharp as a double edged sword, think you’re clever .

  45. In all fairness, no one should be paid for no job done. And Callista is no exceptional. But who employed Callista, did she enlist herself? If am a non performer at work do I have to assess myself? If someone is not working, do you have to wait until she becomes your enemy to exposé her?

  46. Ndale za pamalawi zomvetsa chisoni. Aliyense akufuna kukhutitsa mimba yake! Amalawi tisinthe ndipo titseguke maso. A Chodzi nanunso mwalandirapo kanthu apa, amalawi tiyeni tisinthe DPP A or B isalamulirenso.

  47. Mbuzi za anthu izi. Sell outs! Why are you silent on the 145 m. Bafoons, Reefruffs. Get lost and go to hell. Tikuonani when the revolution of either SKC or Chakwera takes over.

    1. There is a procedure to treat such employees,why dint you follow due deligence when you had noted that the callista had not been reporting for duties more than 5 days which as per labour laws is absconment?Why did you let her enjoy the salary and benefits for more than the years inquestion?The employer(representative)has a case to answer not callista.Let the issue not be politicised

      1. Nkhani ndi yakuti Wichita chilungamo awonetse chilungamoco potula pansi mpando was Vice President.Calisita analankhula kuti wabwino kuwonetsa chilungamo potsogolera dzikoli ndi Chilima ndiye nonse tulani udindo pansi. Ine ndidzakuvoterani kuti mukhale paudindo apo biii. mukunama ndinunso mbava

    4. Ngati Chilima satula pasi udindo ndi M ‘ngoni wakubanso.Ngati Callista satula pansi udindo kumangolandila ndalama osapita Ku office ndinu mbava.Chonde wolemekezeka abusa a Ziyaye pamodzi ndi Msusa tifikitsireni uthengawu kuti ana anuwa awumve bwino
