She has issued an apology and has accepted responsibility for what she calls a ‘slip of the tongue’ but the opposition Peoples’ Party (PP) is having none of it.

Chiumia has come under fire.

The former ruling PP has called on minister of sports and culture Grace ‘Obama’ Chiumia to resign from her position for declaring President Peter Mutharika life president.

The minister recently referred to Mutharika as the life president of Malawi. She has since apologised for the remarks but this has not pleased the opposition People’s Party which has asked the minister to resign from her position arguing that she lacks seriousness.

The party’s publicist Ken Msonda trashed Chiumia’s claims that it was a slip of the tongue and that she did not even realise that she had called Mutharika life president.

“If she says she was not aware of what she said then she must resign from her position because come one day she will speak something bad more than this and to prevent that, I repeat she must step down,” he said.

Msonda then called out the minister for making the declaration saying it was nonsense.

“What the minister has said is a total nonsense that is why PP was quiet. To us we think Chiumia was right and we agree that Mutharika is the life president for their party and indeed there is no any other person who can succeed him,” said Msonda.

Meanwhile the PP has condemned other politicians who behave like the minister of sports by speaking things that could cause havoc in the country with the aim of pleasing the state president.

  32. Ignorance will never end in Malawi, what constitution law are you going to use to remove her? Is it just because she said Peter is life president?
    Everyone have rights,

  33. She and her Dead People’s Party has already raped Malawians constitutional right, as that Malawi will go back to one Party state.
    I would agree her positively as if she would endorse her Matchona as life President of her Dead People’s Party.
    What an insult to Malawians Rights and their constitution together.

  48. Thank you Obama Chiumia, to error is to human. We have ALL blundered on this mother earth. In Malawi, there is no body who has not committed a mistake in their lifetime. We need to learn to forgive and forget. Let’s learn a lesson from her that always we should not get DRUNK or INTOXICATED with power no matter who you are, where you are, podium or no podium! She has eaten her humble pie but if were other people, we would get refutations, they should have been stubborn, twisted what they said, I didn’t say “ulele” but “urea”, things like those but she has been point blank apologising. Your sins are forgiven, madam, go in peace and sin no more.
