DPP MP Chilenga prophesizes doom for his own party: “We are not ready to dislodge MCP.”

Democratic Progressive Party (DPP) member of Parliament for Chitipa South, Werani Chilenga, has taken a swipe at his own party they cannot win the 2025 polls because the party is disjointed, disbanded, and not ready for the elections. 

Speaking in Parliament yesterday, Chilenga underlined that the opposition that opposes itself cannot win the polls.

However, this did not go down well with other DPP legislator such as Vuwa Kaunda, standing on point of order, who said Chilenga has no moral grounds to accuse DPP and yet he was in the same DPP.

Chilenga, however, clarified his point saying Parliament is currently in quandary because of divisions in DPP.

He went further to commend Malawi Congress Party (MCP) led Government for the development’s projects taking place in his constituency.

Chilenga also accused previous Governments for failing to build roads in his constituency.

He started his constituency by accusing the United Democratic Front (UDF) for doing nothing and DPP as well.
