DPP Issued a 3-Day Ultimatum for Police to Arrest MCP Thugs Who Knifed their Supporters

Democratic Progressive Party through its Youth Director (South) Bizzaer Kalulu has given police 3 days to arrest MCP thugs who assaulted and stubbed its supporters in Limbe after attending a campaign rally Mjamba Freedom park in Blantyre on Sunday, August 4, 2025.

President Arthur Peter Mutharika who is DPP torch-bearer for the September 16 elections launched the party’s manifesto and campaign at Njamba where party leaders and supporters from all the districts in the southern region attended.

According to Hon. Kalulu, all the suspects who allegedly attacked DPP supporters are well-known are ruling party supporters and their ring leader is Nsakho Mhango. He has therefore, given police 3 days to arrest all those involved in the attack or else, DPP youth will fish them out and hand over to police.

Hon. Kalulu said one of the victims of MCP orchestrated violence, Henry Kawinga is in serious condition and currently admitted at Queen Elizabeth Central hospital. Others were treated as out-patients.

Since MCP came to power 5 years ago, political violence perpetrated by its supporters has been rising and DPP followers have been on the receiving end. Despite the party lodging complaints to police, no tangible action or arrests have been made up to this time.

“We can’t sit back and watch our supporters suffer MCP terror in this DPP stronghold, enough is enough, we are tired of inaction by the law-enforcers and impunity MCP thugs are enjoying in this country. Malawi belongs to all of us” he remarked.

Some of those named in the violence that happened on Sunday include Juma Pitani, Patson Bamusi, Dennis Chitsulo, Senzo Pitani, Trouble Salamba, Gift Bamusi, John Mateketa, Joe Lipenga, Harrison Magola, Mayeso Taimu, Moffart and Jafali.

The youth director also advised DPP supporters to exercise restraint and calm as they await police action on the matter because as he put it, their patron and leader, Prof Mutharika does not condone violence

Vice President Michael Usi, Headache to MCP

Verbal war has erupted between state vice president Rt Hon Michael Usi and the governing Malawi Congress Party over his recent accusations that corruption is rife and chocking development. On Sunday 10 August, 2025, during his whistle stop tour which he conducted on his way from Lilongwe to Blantyre, the 2nd in command surprised many when he claimed that there are more corrupt cabinet ministers and civil servants especially those around the president who also demand kickbacks from potential investors at the expense of national development. The following day on Monday at a rally he addressed at Nyambadwe ground in the sprawling township of Ndirande in Blantyre, Usi repeated the claim he made earlier at Nsipe in Ntcheu that corruption in government is rife. Reacting to Dr Usi’s allegation, MCP spokesperson Dr Jessie Kabwila said the vice president should be grateful to president Chakwera and the party for appointing him vice president after Chilima’s demise as a way of respecting the electoral alliance pact he had with the late UTM leader Saulos Chilima. Kabwila wondered why Dr Usi all along, kept praising the same government he is criticizing now yet he is part of the cabinet. She has since asked Dr Usi to resign and explain to the nation the source of his campaign funding. But when speeking on Tuesday August 13 in Mangochi, Usi maintained his claim and said he is ready to bring evidence in court to prove his allegations. He said no one should gag him and has vowed to continue exposing corruption in government. Campaign for the September 16, 2025 is in full swing and 17 candidates are expected to contest for the presidency in a country of over 22 million people and 7 million registered voters.
