‘Unshaken’ Mutharika to open parliament despite violent CSOs protests

Parliament and State House say President Peter Mutharika is set to open parliament at 10am this morning and make the state of the nation address despite violent protests on Thursday which led to the damage of some parts of the National Assembly.

Mutharika: Unshaken

National Assembly spokesperson Leonard Mengezi said the destruction of the gate into the entrance of the parliament building as well as the damage to the glass on the door leading to the chamber will not deter Mutharika from opening parliament.

State House spokesperson Mgeme Kalilani said it was a constitutional duty for the president to open parliament and make the state of the national address.

“It is the constitutional right for people to protest but they should not riot, they should not loot. If they have rioted and looted, the police will handle this,” said KaliLani.

Police are expected to effect arrests today over the damage of parliament building.

Yes APM is very strong and brave – being a true chosen LEADER from GOD he puts God first and listens to his people – thats why he is never shaken by any EVIL action from the opposition.

Don’t waste time insulting each other here. Lets tackle real issues. Its better to keep quite if you have no input. The way you express yourself speaks volumes of who you are. No wonder some of us are bad leaders of our homes. I am sure that some of us here are abusive of our spouses because of the words we use i.e zotukwananazi. Kutukwana ndikusowa mfundotu. Ndiye khalidwe lake limeneli inuyo mungakhale mtsogoleri wa dziko. Ndiye bola Mutharikatu alibe mfindo inde koma satukwana ngati mmene enanu mukuchitira.

UNSHAKEN!? REALLY?

Death will shake him in no time. He has little time to life. What goes around comes around. Who knew Joseph Kabila would be out? Who knew al Bashir would be out? Who knew Yaya Jameh would be out? Who knew. Griffin Supuni Phiri would be forced out? Criminals don’t last long.
