A young MCP member Keneth Bwanali has expressed his wish to challenge Dr Chakwera for the post of party President at the party’s convention.

Chakwera might not be on the Presidential ballot in the 2019 polls.

If he is successful, he will be the face on the ballot for the opposition party.

Bwanali said that it is high time for youths in the country to take leadership positions and his action does not mean he is against Dr Chakwera.

Writing on his Facebook page Bwanali said that time has come for the youth in all political parties in Malawi to take part in top leadership of the parties.

“DPP cadets contest against Mutharika, PP, AFORD ,UDF , do that as I have done against the incumbent Reverend Chakwera,” he posted.

“I don’t have any grudges against him, its the requirement of democracy and intraparty politics,” Bwanali said.

MCP is yet to announce the dates of its convention where party members will elect various positions as well as the party’s presidential candidate .

Recently, the party has roped in high profile political gurus such as Sidik Mia who have boosted the standing of the party.

  13. In fact we should remove, “may” and replace it with, “will” because Rt. Hon. Chakwera will indeed not represent MCP, but rather all well meaning malawians, including many dpp, udf, pp and those nonpartsan members. So, I agree with the heading but with that simple amendment. Kwaaacha!

  20. Malawi 24, this is your poorest reporting, probably you have news, or else paid to publish such unstory issue, who is this man you are talking about? Do you real see Jim dislodging Chakwera at the convension? Is he an Mcp? Why wasting time writing that which is not a story at all?

  30. Their slogan ” kwaaaacha” will be changed to ” kwaaaada” in 2019 after the election bcoz they will be ” disgraced” in the ballot-paper. Wazi nyau ndi wazi nyau basi tatopa kubvina gule wamkulu ife.

  31. Ndale ,chipani sitimaphika ndikudya ayi andale awa atikwanapo palibe chomwe chingasinthe apa kaya kuima kaya kusaima zao zilibwino kale analemela kale awa ndiye winawe bzy ndi zopani chonsecho ukuchita kusowa silipas yovala osakalembetsa polima bwanji china chinvekele ine wa DPP ,PP,UDF ,MCP, AFORD ,osakasaka maganyu ntaunimu bwanji mukonze tsogolo la ana anu bwanji zipani zingakulembeni ntchito kupepela kubwanbwana anzanuo ali ndi chuma kale koma iwe zipani zachani nonse omwe mukuti ine wa Dpp,UDF,PP,MCP,mutazitenga zipani zanuzo muziike mupoto ndiye muthile madzi muziphike muone ngati zisanduke nsima zamuwawa akalande nyanja ija anatenga atanzania ija dzuka malawi

  35. MCP politics emblems a feeble challenge of Chakwera at MCP convention. The one to challenge Chakwera is a nonentity in as far as politics is concerned. This is just deliberate. In essence, Chakwera will emerge the victor. Bingu v Dossi scenario!

  37. sizikundi khudza ine ndiwa DPP chifukwa ndi amene akulamulira pano ndiyenera kuwathandiza kuti dziko litukuke osati maloto achumba achakwerawo ine sundupanga nawo

    3. If God wanted him to be a president of Malawi he wouldn’t have failed in 2014 elections. What God has prepared cannot go astray…. May adapanga phuma kulowa ndale kapena sadamvetsetse what God told him. Let’s wait 2019 and see……

  56. Komabe a Malawi amene atopa adzafunabe kusintha zinthu nde ukufuna kunena kuti chani iweyo??? KUDZAVOTERA MCP KUTI ANEBA AZAPHSYE MTIMA!!!!!!!!!!!!! KUTI IWENSO OLEMBAWE UZIPHSYE MTIMA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  64. We always end up bad leadership because of dyera wovota a electoral commission during voting chinyengo basi bt its too much 2019 vote wise and electoral chinyengo siyani we want change

  66. Bwanali is a DPP cadre disguising as MCP but he is no march to Laz.Size yachepa.He will contest but winning at MCP convention is a nightmare.

    2. Mukavote ndinu? Ngati chakwera akugwirizana ndi anthu ozavotawo azawina. Koma ngati zitapitilirebe zomwe amapanga zija, anthu akhoza kuzavotera winayo just to frustrate chakwera

  70. youthful leader JOE Gwaladi interested to challenge Peter Munthalika on DPP presidential position during the convention to be held soon

  72. Malawi 24 ndiwe cadet ndakuona ukuchita mantha ndi Chakwela koma pavute pasavute mudzausiya ndithu udindo umenewu basi kuwusiyila anthu ena

  75. Kkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk Lazalo waumphawi Chakwera must fall ! We don’t fighting against MCP , but we really fighting against Lazalo waumphawi Chakwera he must go back to the church . Kkkkkkkkkkk Nkhosa zake zili ndi njala .

    1. Kodi mwakwiya ndi chani? Simukulankhula bwinotu. Respect ikufunika. Adzakhalatu President wathu mukumunyozayo. Leave Chakwera alone, let him lead MCP

    5. Mfumu David ukumunenayo adali ozozedwa ndi Mulungu ngati sudziwa uzifunsa wamva iwe ? Pewa kusakaniza nkhani za Mulungu ndi Ndale . Chakwera wakoyo ndi satana wankulu , kutereko lamukulira ndi dyera that is y wathawa ku church .

    16. EVANCE! wachita misala musamuvere anasuta chachiwisi komaso ndamuthokoza chifukwa akulidziwa dzinali CHAKWERAAA MOTOOO!

  77. News 24 is useless as Keneth Bwanali and evil as the walking devil dpp. WHY DONT YOU NEWS 24 SHUTUP YOUR EVIL MOUTH?

  84. That is democracy. If the majority will say no it’s no. If it’s yes it’s yes. But if a leader has been chosen by the majority and start making noise, that is self centeredness. This should also be to all parties, let the leaders be chosen into positions by people’s choice. Moses Dossi challenged Bingu Wa Muntalika that was the end of his political career (He was like an enemy to Bakili and the lest) that is not democracy. This should apply to UDF, AFORD, DPP and all parties. I will one day take to court some of the registered parties, to tell the nation of their existence. Kumangochulikitsa number while party idafa kalekale. Kulephela kupeleka or councillor mmodzi

  85. Very poor reporting. The story isn’t aligned well to the title. Malawi24 has always been reliable. Strive to keep your standards high, otherwise, this story is a flop.

    1. It is not misleading man. This is journalism. Journalist have to come up with an appetising headline to get people to read their story. This is part of their work. You just read too much into it

    4. If so than that’s dull journalism. I don’t think this is what was taught at MIJ that in order to draw people’s attention you should come up with a misleading articles.
