Wa Jeffrey warns MCP against political unrest: ‘DPP can hit back’

Democratic Progressive Party (DPP) Secretary General, Grelzedar Jeffrey wa Jeffrey  has given Malawi Congress Party (MCP) a three-days ultimatum to stop post-election violence or risk facing unspecified action.

Jeffrey: Warns MCP

She was speaking on Sunday during a DPP victory rally conducted at St. Augustine 3 Primary School ground in Mangochi.

“Let me tell you (Richard Chimwendo Banda) and the entire MCP leadership to stop violence within three days or else we will deal with you. The violence you are perpetrating has to stop because people voted for what they wanted,” Jeffrey stated.

She warned MCP supporters that every Secretary General of any political party has a right to attend court proceedings.

On Thursday last week, MCP supporters attempted to manhandle Jeffrey at the Lilongwe High Court during a scheduling conference on the Constitutional Court on the Presidential disputed results in which MCP and UTM have moved the courts.

On this note, Jeffrey thanked people from the Eastern Region for offering their support to DPP.

“As a party, we thank you people in the Eastern Region for offering the president with many votes and we are proud of you. The president gave you what he promised in 2014 and you have shown your appreciation through the ballot,” she added.

The Secretary General reminded people that MCP fought the whites while the United Democratic Front brought multiparty and the DPP was there to develop Malawi.

DPP Vice President for the Eastern Region, Bright Msaka said the President amassed many votes because he is a development conscious.

“People believed that in you there is development; hence, voting for you in their large numbers because you have delivered what you promised. We thank you the people of the Eastern Region for giving DPP many votes and the president will keep on developing the country,” he said.

Recently MCP has been quoted in the media as saying they will not stop demonstrating until the court passes its verdict on the matter.

Few weeks ago, MCP supporters went to Capital Hill in Lilongwe where they disrupted government business, claiming that the current government is illegal.

If DPP’s popularity is sliding down fast, the real causes are the fowl, and tip-ex mouths of Mchacha, Wa Jeffrey, Uladi Mussa and APP himself. All like to hear the beaming of their voices and care a hoot as to the damage they are doing to the party.

If you amassed votes why tippexed figures. You amassed votes why Jane Madando Ansah Tippex failed to give updates of figures of 25% when all knew that the stoppage and refusal to take questions from media was the fact that Chakwera was way ahead of Muthalika. You manipulated the figures though you tippexed figures but still Chakwera was in front by many votes and you manipulated the figures God can allow 17million Malawians run by Tippex government that is completely fraudulent no noooooooooo!!!!!!!!

Dear Gilizeda wa Jefu Choti udziwe ndi choti the court is up settling the POLL-Gate and the MCP Ballister has the people’s blessing for he is fighting a just cause. Mahatma Ghandi was a poor lad from India without a home even a piece of jacket to wear, oh! he did not have a standing army or own a rifle but he defeated the mighty British army. The cadets are no more in town for I was one of them (not in arms but deeds) but now I hide my colours. Instead of giving political rhetorics put all your cards… Read more »
