UTM censors party official over outbursts against MCP

UTM Party has distanced itself from outbursts its director of strategic planning Norman Nyirenda said at a political rally on Sunday in Mzuzu that the opposition Malawi Congress Party (MCP) remains a party of blood and darkness.

UTM Party spokesman Chidanti Malunga: Nyirenda remarks not party stand

Nyirenda, at a rally held by the party secretary general Patricia Kaliati, said the MCP remains unpopular in the north because of its dark past.

But UTM publicity secretary Joseph Chidanti Malunga said what Nyirenda said did not represent the position of the party.

He said UTM is a liberal democratic party which condemns castigation and political mudslinging against other parties and their politicians.

“UTM has no interest whatsoever to attack or insult anyone or any political party. We are a party of principles and we believe in coexistence with other political parties,” said Malunga.

He said Kaliati rebuked Nyirenda over the remarks right away at the meeting.

Nyirenda is yet to apologise but this comes hot in the heals of frantic behind doors talks between the leadership of the UTM and MCP to establish a political grand alliance ahead of the Constitutional Court sanctioned fresh presidential election in July.

Leaders of the two parties have kept a tight lip on the progress of the alliance whose break through would enable the MCP and UTM form a government should the two parties win the forthcoming elections.

The whole UTM are experts when it comes to castigating, Chilima and Kaliati are masters of the art. Now since when did UTM become a party that does not castigate others. Isn’t it Chilima himself who called others apumbwa?

Zayamba,sizinati. Fall of Babylon. To any thinking northerner will never accept this unity . MCp sent northerners back home . Children failed to go to school,life was tough for them. Northerners have easily forgotten? History repeats itself. I quote Kaluwa”mwana wa fisi ndi was fisi” MCp will never change example Nsundwe warlords. They are really bloody thirsty people.

Atumbuka, you want to saturate the south, if you were sent back home you would start developing your region and now you blame a good strategy you still want to develop other regions on expense of your region, idiots. Don’t blame MCP , BLAME YOUR STUPIDITY.

Cadet iwe. You just want to tanish the image of MCP. What we know for sure was that the founder of MCP was a northerner and MCP is proud of that history despite some negatives on the way.
