Former First Lady Callista Mutharika is unhappy with President Peter Mutharika saying the Malawi leader changed from good to bad.

Callista who has stolen Malawi’s internet for unending discussions of her recent tantrums on the Mutharika led administration argues that the Malawi president is losing track of running the affairs of Malawi because ‘he is surrounded by vipers’ whom she says are misleading him.

Callista: Mutharika has changed

“People misleading him (Mutharika) have surrounded him in all corners, in the DPP (Democratic Progressive Party) and at the State house but otherwise he was a good man,” She told a local radio in an interview on Saturday.

Her remarks come barely a few days after she was quoted in the media as having said Vice President Saulos Chilima is the ‘right man’ to rule Malawi.

She has since dubbed reports that the DPP wants to usher in First Lady Gertrude Mutharika or Peter’s aide Ben Phiri for the presidency in 2019 as an ‘insult to Malawians’.

Callista whose husband former President the late Bingu wa Mutharika died six years ago, claims she is apparently not afraid of being ill-treated in any way for her views on the current leadership.

She says because she served as a lawmaker she has experience of national administration and therefore her views are not ill fated adding that as a Malawian she is also entitled to speak on national issues without fear.

The media is at the moment quoting DPP politburo as dubbing her remarks as ‘mythical’ and ‘senseless’.

  1. Didn’t Bingu start good then ended up messing us all up?
    Has Callista forgotten the following while she was a First Lady:
    – long lines at the fuel pumps?
    – no forex?
    – bags of foreign currency under her bed with Bingu?

    I am not a fun of Peter however, Callista has to find something else to resurface on.

    Zankutu!

  3. Malawi is definitely ready for change both at political party and government levels. All political parties should review the process of electing their party leaders. I suggest it be based on substantive and fair process and not based on emotions, fear or intimidation. All candidates should be interviewed by their respective Ethical Committees, taking into account candidate’s history and public sentiments. By the time they come representing their respective parties at general elections, at least Malawians have a chance of voting in political parties with credible leaders, hopefully devoid of corruption. Political parties should also be clear on their ideologies i.e. whether they will push for free education, free healthcare, free housing to those who can’t afford and pushing for employment of the youth. Currently political parties messages are only rhetorical with no substance at all. They’re busy kutukwanana ngati ana opanda khalidwe. No wonder Malawi is where it is now.
