The Malawi leader has been criticized by former ruling People’s Party (PP) for branding ex President Joyce Banda as the master minder of the infamous Cashgate scandal.
President Peter Mutharika has asked donors that they should not to punish him for the sins that were committed by the Joyce Banda administration.
“You are punishing the wrong people. Cashgate was done by the previous government. Are you going to punish the subsequent government that was not involved in the scandal? In the end, it is the people who suffer when donors withhold support. What is currently happening in Malawi is very serious. We have no medicine in the hospitals because the donors left” said Mutharika in an interview with BBC Hard Talk.
The Malawi leader went ahead to say that over $60 million of public funds stolen by Peoples Party and government officials including cabinet members in the Joyce Banda government,
“We are facing very serious difficulties [because] cashgate left nothing in the treasury… About $60 million was stolen by officials in the Joyce Banda regime. Because of cashgate, donors who provide 40% of budget support left us”.
But in reaction, PP Publicity and Administrative Secretary told Malawi24 wondered why Mutharika would ‘lie’ to the world about Cashgate.
Msonda said that Mutharika is well aware that the looting of funds started with his brother the late President Bingu wa Mutharika.
‘’It was unfortunate and undemocratic that our President could lie to the whole world that cashgate started with the PP when he knows in his heart of hearts that it started with when his late brother was head of state’’.
Msonda remained Mutharika that at that time, he served as a cabinet Minister and was an advisor to the Bingu wa Mutharika.
The PP has since defended the era of Joyce Banda citing that it is the government that ignited probe into the looting as well as pushed for the arrest of over 70 suspcets some of whom are sparing themselves cold nights in Malawi prisons for their roles into the scandal christened Cashgate.
Mutharika has recently been criticized by Banda for trying to politically haunt her, something which exonerates the ex leader who remains outside Malawi in fear of being arrested.
It is highly asserted that the Mutharika administration has intention to arrest Banda over her feared involvement n the scandal, something which the DPP has incessantly been parrying away.
Peter is talking no sense. I even wonder why people they call him professor. Because he behaves like chicken without head. Why he talks about cashgate, he must talk about bags of money found in his brother bedroom.
I dont think cashgate issue wil end, as u can see they’re accusing each ather, malawi needs to purge and process
Politics is killing malawi

bwanji osachotsa chisoso cha maso mwanu blueshit
It must a A JOKE of th yr.A SCAPEGOAT for his own FAILURE.A SHAMELESS failure.
If peter wants donors aid back then he has to make sure that all those who stole govt. money from the time of bingu and to the time of Joyce face the law and clean up all govt. institutions. Even if he does that and donor aid comes in, Peter will show the whole world that he has failed to develop malawi on his own but that he depends on foreign aid. Its time Peter has to find solutions on how to utilize our own resources to develop this country. some of us we have solutions, we can help if given chance and opportunity to be heard.
Man they iz no proof that bingu store maney
Ndale za chisukulusukulu siziworker ku Malawi Aise!
well joyce banda claimed that during bingu time 96 billion kwacha was stolen and in the past donors stated that they can only help if the cashgate that happened during bingu time is also investigated alongside that of joyce
Are u still confident that Pitala can change the economy of Malawi? No, this guy cannot. He is too dull and dumb. He blames other people instead of doing the job? A shameful lot! After Bingu looted the government of billions, Joice worked hard and brought the economy back on track within a very short time. A lomwe, Alomwe mukuyiwala za dala? Mwaiwala kusowa kwa suga ndi mafuta a galimoto? DPP means diesel petrol pallbe!!! Shupita Zanu masaveji inu!
Which president in history of Malawi has ruled without donors expect peter ?
Hule wakuba amathawa yekha

Kkkkk. …..kaya
If branded y amai anathawa?
Theres nothing wrong with calling a spade by its name…its just sad that we use the situation as a scapegoat for our failures….
For someone who spent over four decades in the land of the whiteman teaching white children is unfathomable that he can behave like this and expect these guys to come back and support his budget. They are reading each and every move he makes. They are not stupid. Malawians are also getting the signs now. If it was a Cheya he would have been excused. But this is a prof at the highest level and knows what happened who did it and the when and how it happened and furthermore has the solutions but is playing daft to blind foolish malawians. Its like someone blaming alcohol for his misbehaving. Malawi limba umva kuwawa kwambiri !!!!!
1day iwll witching all admins’ of Mw24.why Alway insulting Mutharika.

This President was a gay for two decades so what are you expecting from him. Gays always fight against ladies. His brother is the one who stolen billions of money. If is Jb why until today you are afraid to arrest Jb. You will be exposed by Jb. This President is having fake academics he has no brain at all. Fake professor

#awayisoni muzafela ku m’bowo chifukwa mumangosatira chilichonse musanafufuze
Which Bingu are you talking about?? In the first year he performed due to the pressure the opposition exerted on him. When he got the majority vote in 2009 his true colours emerged. Have you forgotten the shortage fuel and forex? Instead of continuing with the development he initiated in his first year, he built NDATA instead. What about the academic impasse?? He was shortsighted and not visionary as you purport. Kamuzu is the only great leader. Compare the infrastructure he put in 30 years with the shacks Muluzi, Bingu and JB have erected? The list is endless; Kamuzu International Airport, Kamuzu Central Hospital,The M1 road, Lilongwe Mchinji road, Limbe -Thyolo- Mulanje road, Salima Lilongwe road,Blantyre- Mwanza road, The lakeshore road,Zalewa road, Zomba road, Chikwawa-Blantyre road, The Capital a Hill, numerous district hospitals and secondary Schools, the University of Malawi, Queens Hospital, Kamuzu Highway…..
Tinachitaya tokha pati bwana? Cardiac arrest inachoka mmanja mwamunthu?

Mr president,lies won’t help in trying to win back donors.find other embelishing words that you can use in your speeches rather than defaming innocent previous government.your old age makes you forget that the so called cashgate started during your brother’s rein.most people are aware of this !!!
This US GREEN CARD guy must go.
