Bakili Muluzi TV, an online Television station has released names of Primary Education Advisors, head teachers, teachers, and inspectors who were ferried in four hired buses from Nkhotakota to the State House in Lilongwe allegedly drilled in vote rigging scheme in favor of President Dr. Lazarus Chakwera on the 16th September, 2025 elections.
The Television station has claimed that 17 PEAs, 163 head teachers and a total of 911 teachers from Nkhotakota’s Teachers Development Centres, are to be part of MCPs vote rigging scheme describing this development as a threat to democracy and the elections in September, 2025.
The station has claimed that millions of tax payers’ Kwachas have been spent to hire buses, providing food and allowances to these teachers, the money could have gone a long way towards procuring maize to the hunger -stricken people in Malawi.
Bakili Muluzi TV said Parliament approved K67 billion to go the State House to be used by President Chakwera and his family, relatives and friends claiming that this money is now being used to buy chiefs, women and youth to be on the side of the MCP for President Chakwera’s victory on the 16th September, 2025 General Elections.
“Next week, I will come with a list of teachers from Dedza that travelled in hired buses to the State House for a similar activity,” he said in his narration.
Reacting to the teachers’ story as part of MCP vote rigging scheme, Political activist Bon Kalindo said teachers across the country are in pain and suffering because their leaders from TUM and MCTU are representing them for their own interests, receiving money from MCP and staying quiet.
Kalindo said it is heart-breaking that teachers after suffering for years under the MCP led government of President Chakwera have formed part of MCPs vote rigging scheme under their leaderships TUM and MCTU.
He has warned teachers that if the MCP wins the 16th September, 2025 elections, they will be held accountable for making it possible for President Chakwera and his MCP which has brought untold sufferings in Malawi to bounce back into government.
“TUM has been deducting teachers’ money every month without representing them and today, the very same teachers through the influence of money from the MCP, have forgotten the pain this government has inflicted on them,” said Kalindo.
