Jumah condemns MCP use of MDF in politics

Commander in Chief of Muvi wa Chilungamo Mindset Change episodes to be turn Revolutionary Party [MRP] Bantu Saunders Jumah, has condemned in strongest terms possible the MCP use of Malawi Defense Force [MDF] soldiers in politics against its political opponents.
Jumah said it is possible to use the police to be dragged in politics but using the Army in politics to fight political opponents is a grave mistake which requires all Malawians to accuse the MCP of bringing back the country into one party dictatorship government.

He said in 1994 Malawians made a declaration that never again shall the country go back to one party dictatorship saying what happened in Karonga where MDF soldiers arrested and tortured a civilian Mr. Lyton Mangochi, is a clear testimony that Malawi has democracy on paper.
Speaking during a special programme on TransNyasa Radio station to Muvi wa Chilunamo members in Malawi and district number 29 in diaspora, Jumah said it is sad that the MCP is using MDF soldiers to harass and intimidate people who are speaking nothing but the truth.
Jumah has reminded the MCP that Malawi is a democratic country where people’s rights must be respected at all times advising it not to use the Army to instill fear in many Malawians as if Malawi is at war.

….’’Don’t destroy the fundamental principles of democracy by using the Army to harass innocent people in the name of supporting a political party,’’….said Jumah.
He said Malawi as it is today, has no strong opposition party to stand for the people saying this has made the MCP led government to take advantage over a weak opposition who cannot offer constructive criticism to government.

The Commander in Chief said opposition provides check and balances to government but in Malawi the opposition is silent saying this has forced millions of Malawians calling for Muvi wa Chilungamo to graduate into a political party so that it provide checks and balances to the MCP led government.
He assured Malawians that new things will happen in Malawi referring to the Holy Bible that in the story of Jessie, David came from the bush to lead the people of Israel and this David will come to liberate Malawians from the shackles of Corruption and thieving in government.

The Commander in Chief observed that Malawians have a mentality that leadership will come from families with names obseving that they have tried all including President Reverend Chakwera but has none has liberated the country, Malawians are still dancing to the tune of corruption.
He advised Malawians that there is no school, college, and university for one to be President of the country saying it is a great mistake thinking that educated people are the ones to lead the country appealing to Malawians that this is the time to try David from the bush to be President of the country.
….’’In 2025 don’t be cheated with names, educational qualification and riches but look at the vision one is possessing, education and riches have failed the country,’’….said Jumah.
He assured Malawians that the 7th Republic coming under Muvi wa Chilungamo in 2025 will enhances transparency and accountability in government making all to realize that they are living in their country, using the available resources and no need for dollars.

Jumah said Muvi wa Chilungamo Revolutionary Party [MRP] is following the footsteps of David in the bush as in the Bible saying Malawians are expecting to receive David in 2025 in the 7th Republic claiming that the so called politicians with names, they won’t be seen anymore, David will come from the bush to be President of the Republic of Malawi.

Youth empowerment in action: Judith Msusa applauds success of Business Acceleration for Youth Project By Burnett Munthali, November The Director of Youth in the Ministry of Youth, Judith Msusa, has expressed her satisfaction with the impact of the Business Acceleration for Youth (BAY) project, describing it as a transformative initiative for empowering Malawian youth economically. Msusa commended the project during a visit to some grant beneficiaries who have successfully turned their ventures into thriving enterprises. Speaking during her visit, Msusa lauded the program for equipping young entrepreneurs with the tools they need to enhance their livelihoods. "The government is impressed with the youth who, through this initiative, have been able to increase their revenue streams. This not only enables them to live decent lives but also positions them as job creators for their peers," she said. Msusa emphasized the project's role in fostering a generation of self-reliant, innovative, and economically active young people. Adding to Msusa's sentiments, David Slane, Chief of Party for the project, expressed his own delight at the progress made. "It’s rewarding to see these young individuals demonstrating tangible successes as a result of this support. They are living proof of what is possible when young people are given the right opportunities and resources," said Slane. The three-year BAY project, funded by the United States Agency for International Development (USAID), is being implemented by the Alliance of Biodiversity International and the Centre for Tropical Agriculture (CIAT). Focused on the districts of Zomba, Balaka, Chiradzulu, Chikwawa, Machinga, and Mangochi, the project aims to nurture the entrepreneurial spirit among youth by providing grants, mentorship, and technical assistance. During the visit, several beneficiaries shared their inspiring stories of transformation. One of them, a poultry farmer from Mangochi, recounted how the project’s financial and technical support helped her scale her business, enabling her to employ two additional workers. Another young entrepreneur in Zomba, specializing in agro-processing, highlighted how mentorship from the project helped him navigate market challenges and significantly increase his revenue. These testimonials reflect the project's profound impact on communities. Beyond financial gains, the BAY initiative is helping youth build confidence, resilience, and a sense of purpose, all of which are critical for sustaining long-term economic growth. As Malawi grapples with high unemployment rates among the youth, the BAY project stands out as a beacon of hope. With continued support from USAID and partners, the initiative could serve as a model for youth empowerment not only in Malawi but across the region. Msusa’s visit underscores the government’s commitment to supporting programs that align with its broader vision of reducing poverty and unemployment. "The youth are the backbone of our nation," Msusa concluded. "Projects like BAY remind us of their untapped potential and the immense possibilities that emerge when we invest in them strategically." The success of the BAY project serves as a testament to the power of collaboration between government, development partners, and the private sector in addressing pressing societal challenges.
