Chakwera among six to watch in Sadc
Malawi Congress Party (MCP) president Lazarus Chakwera has made it into a list of six people to watch in 2014 in Southern Africa.
Accoridng to the Friday issue of The African Report, Chakwera, with an outside chance, has flung the election race wide open ahead of the May 20 polls. http://www.theafricareport.com/Southern-Africa/sa.html
Chakwera, a former president of the Malawi Assemblies of God, became leader of Malawi’s oldest party in August through a convention.
“Despite its popularity in the populous Central Region, MCP did not have a strong chance of a high turnout until Chakwera brought some new life to the race,” reads the report.
Chakwera faces stern test from other presidential candidates in the May 20 polls, including the incumbent President Joyce Banda. At least 16 presidential candidates have collected nomination forms.
Other people that have made the list are Zambian Patriotic Front secretary general Wynter Kabimba who is fighting to unseat President Michael Sata in the party.
Zimbabwean John Magudya the group chief executive of CBZ, Zimbabwe’s largest bank, who is touted to succeed central bank governor Gedion Gono has also made the list.
Others are South Africa’s Mzwandile Masina, who took over the leadership of the African National Congress (ANC) Youth League from Julius Malema, Mozambican Margarida Talapa and Angolan art ambassador Edson Chagas have completed the list.
Not surprised with Chakwera inclusion this man is a real deal.
No wonder he deserve it!!!!!!!
Ine kuntima kuti mbeeeee! But we need not be complacent when we hear these things. MCP needs to up its game.
20 may!! in malawi
you mean a Pitala palibepo pa list imeneyi.naga atupele?ndiye kuti apikisane ndi lioness of africayu ndi chakwera basi?ndiye ngozitu chifukwa samutha mzimayiyu.taonani zitukuko zakumudzi.ma Dornor kuyimitsa thandizo koma no difference.wina wake adali president mmalawi muno.ma Dornor adangonyanyala pangono koma zooopysa.no folex,no fuel,no sugar ,no meat ,no maize and went ahead pleading kuti timpatse 3 more years.thanks to the almighty.Mai uyu.uyu,uyu akulamula mmalawi uyu.Ndamutaila kantengo
koma nao woyamikira enewa inu.amakhala kuti kodi amenewa.kuno adayamba afikako.This guy so called chakwera can hardly impress me in his speeches.i wonder if there was any cashgate here in malawi that he would find something to say at all.his stopovers in various trading centres along the road should not give him hope that he can make it.a quarter of the people in the area go to these tradings,the rest are at home.this is why i say its only joice banda who is reaching out to the people.the one cow one family projects,kukweza mafumu,kugawa chimanga,mudzi fund,plus,plus plus.these are making her meet the masses in the village.dont be cheated that the central is for mcp,get it from me.mcp started so late.pp has penetrated inthe centre and i come from lilongwe rural i know what iam talking about.madef fertilizer loans sizocheza ayi.cheap maize in all admarc.
Amwene be realistic, do not think that if you’re not impressed with his speeches and then all are. Moreover, those projects you’re hailing JB for doing them are not for the party, they are governmental. Its a pity that in MW we do not diferenciate party and governmental functions a thing McP will fight against when we take power. Do not expect Chakwera to par JB in campaingn for the latter is using government resources which has strong financial muscle. Open your eyes and see, do not be taken by suprise when DLC wins. Many are conviced that he is the right Man.
Ndiye wina ndikudzabetsa dala dala voti. Masewera bwanji. Mcp Boma!
Tiwone one cow per family yakoyo kumene atenge ng’ombe poti zimene anatenga kwa Sidik Mia zija sanapeleke ndalama zake.
We gonna just take pot lucky.The leader has already been chosen by God.
President amagawa yekha ng’ombe, zopusa basi. aku unduna ndi mafumu ntchito yawo ndichani. ine nde munthuyu sandisangalatsa olo piece. olo nzake Salif sangagawe ng’ombe coz ali ndi anthu amene angagawe.
She z too uneducated, olo chizungu chimamulaka ngati Atcheya nde kumati ndi Doctor, zopanda mkalasi?
not suprised because chakwera because he has brought a big change in the politics of malawi
Chakwera is the uniting force of the regionalistic politics in Malawi. The Centre, North, South will become one with Chakwera at the helm. We dont want one president having in cabinet ana ake, ana azilamu ake or kumasankha mchemwali kukhala advisor wa president. No that is another cash gate. By the way is it true that Khumbo, Kasambala and a mayi’wa ndi pachibale.
But Chakwera what are you going to do with the cash gate people, security, civil servants salaries, Nsanje Port and the Presidential Jet issue. We are waiting to hear from you
Chakwera ndi deal and May 21Bomaaaaa osafuna adye mwala
we pride of u baba.
hahahahahah zaziii,zopanda ndi mchere omwe hah zopanda phindu kutalitali
