UTM acusses DPP of bastardizing MEC to rig Malawi fresh polls

UTM Party has added its voice to Malawi Congress Party (MCP) claims that  the governing Democratic Progressive Party (DPP) together with Malawi Electoral Commission and National Registration Bureau (NRB)  are orchestrating rigging acts for fresh presidential elections.

UTM publicity secretary Joseph Chidanti Malunga  (R) says the DPP)together with Malawi Electoral Commission and National Registration Bureau have embarked on a rigging scheme through registering minors.

Addressing journalists in Blantyre on Saturday, UTM publicity secretary Joseph Chidanti Malunga said  one of the  rigging scheme  is through registering minors.

Flanked by  Noel Masangwi, the party’s patron, Steve Mikaya, member of Parliament for Blantyre City West, who is also the party’s regional governor for the South, UTM’s spokesperson wondered why DPP keeps   “bastardising” the Jean Ansah-led Electoral Commission with aspersions that cast doubt on the credibility and neutrality of the  electoral body for the July 2 vote.

“We have our doubts that this  MEC  can be neutral and fair,” he said.

UTM has added weight to the claims made by MCP that they ohave detected flaws in the MEC and NRB databases.

Malunga said MEC has been registering under-aged children in the Southern Region. using NRB identity cards .

Recently, Human Rights Defenders Coalition (HRDC) questioned the transfer of NRB director Mcford Somanje to the NRB, as they alleged that he was transferred to the bureau to manipulate the database.

Meanwhile, UTM  is requesting Malawi Police Service to deploy its officers to registration centres for security.

The party contends that  the withdrawal of police officers has given chance to other people to disrupt the registration exercise.

UTM party has also condemned the beating of its monitors yesterday in Thyolo, Phalombe and Mulanje districts during the second phase of the voter registration exercise.

  1. Bastardising? If anyone is bastardising it is Chilima. Chilima’s greed for power and glory will end badly for him. Bad for Malawi.

  2. Busy with useless things.Sort your affairs.You claim to be transparent/accountable yet you are failing to tell your people as to who will stand for crocodile/death party.

  3. UTM is always crying and those are signs that they are typcal failures. SCK, the alliance you are in, is making you even further away from prospects of one day becoming the President of the Country. But I know u will stand on your own. You are typical like Malema in SA, he makes noise all the time and everybody knows that he will never be the President of SA. He perfoms well in the opposition side just as good as SCK. Making noise all the time, anthu amaonatu and u will c when it comes to elections, they will fail miserably, both MCP and UTM.

  4. This is exactly why lomwes were chased from Mozambique by the Portuguese, lomwes or ngulus are crooks by dna….we can only blame the Chewa people for giving our land in mulanje and Thyolo to the lomwes as a place of refuge.

    Lero Alomwe analula mphafa to the point that they have a paramount chief of their own though they have no land.

    And worse still this week lomwes are chasing the very same people who gave them refuge to leave the lomwe belt as they call it.

    They have forgotten their history most of them they don’t even know how their grandparents came to live in Malawi or Nyasaland then……it was the chewas who gave you that land idiots….

    Koma lero mumanyoza anthu amene anakupulumutsani ku ng’anjo ya a pwitikizi.

    1. Chewa people never owned the whole land of Malawi. Revisit your history, do not be proud thinking you are the rightful owners of Malawi.

    2. Mbonga idiot. U don’t even know that the last king of chewas was killed by mnanula a yao chief, who proceeded to abolish the tittle of kalonga in Malawi up to this day. Matundu wanji wopanda paramount? Tiye uko

  5. CHILIMA NDI CHAKWERA NDIYE CHIYEMBEKEZO CHA A MALAWI.
    OLO UKAONA SMART VEHICLES ZA UTM
    KU MTIMA MYA.
    OLO ATATHIRA DOOM MKAMWA VOTE YANGA NDI YA UTM/MCP

    1. The two indiots that have damaged our country. That have destroyed property and businesses. Can ‘t vote for these thugs olo atandithira dumu mkamwa.

  6. Stiff necked fools. If you have evidence why don’t you join your boss chakwera since he said his mcp is going to courts. Let me warn you, that the more you complain to court the more Malawians realise you aren’t fit to govern. You have no idea of how a country is governed because you are babies. If you are in alliance why do you conduct separate press conferences? Your the only party in the tonse alliance that holds separate pressers. Idiots

    1. DPP is definitely not a role model as far as governance is concerned. The reason Chakwera and Chilima go to court is because there is no longer a police service in the country. The only place complainants can get relief is the courts.

  7. Utm has bigger fish to fly. Sort out your marriage with Mcp first before talking are you the Man or wife in that relationship? Who wears the trousers? Who is the man of the house? Chakwera or Chilima? Who calls the shots. Anything else is useless. Utm is about to be sucked into oblivion by Mcp. A party whose Nec is full of losers not a single elected Mp. Stinks of rejection if you ask me.

    1. Puma like Dpp has sorted out with its hule udf bwa! kkkkk puma even chikwera or chilima president or vice its still tonse alliance cleaning up thieves in govt time for new blood new malawi!!

    1. Chilima is more successful then your sorry unknown Ass! sanje wont take you anywhere! hes leadership qualities is a gift that cant be taken from him!!
