Former President Professor Arthur Peter Mutharika has told one of the Democratic Progressive Party (DPP) Presidential aspirants Kondwani Nankhumwa to stop using pictures of his brother late Professor Bingu wa Mutharika when designing his campaign posters.
This follows a recent poster which Nankhumwa posted in one of his social media platforms, showing a picture of late Professor Bingu wa Mutharika.
In a statement, Mutharika says, as President of DPP and a relative to late Bingu wa Mutharika who is the founder of the party, he is distressed by the exploitation of their departed relative, however, asking Nankhumwa to withdraw the poster and never post another.
” As President of DPP and head of Mutharika amily, I am distressed by this exploitation of our departed relative. I am therefore, the individual concerned to withdraw this poster and to never post another one.
On behalf of my family, I am asking this individual to respect Bingu’s Soul and let him Rest in Peace,” reads the statement in part.
Currently, there is tension in DPP as the party’s top leaders are scrambling for presidential position to lead the party in the next Malawi’s Presidential elections.
