A Malawi Congress Party (MCP) diehard of Mvera in Dowa district Mr. Rodgers Kamphangala, has called on all MCP candidates who lost to DPP candidates in the 16th September, 2025 elections and both Mec and courts have nullified the results for by-elections, to pull out from the race.
Kamphangala said by pulling out from the race will not be signs of weaknesses but to protect their legacy from total destruction assuring them that they will suffer embarrassing defeats, those that voted for them won’t vote for them again.Malawi Elections 2025: Survey Shows Peter Mutharika Leading Ahead of Lazarus Chakwera
He said President Dr. Lazarus Chakwera accepted the defeat beside other people in the MCP mobilizing supporters going to the streets protesting to force Mec Chairperson Justice Annabel Mtalimanja declare President Chakwera the winner on the claims that DPP has rigged the elections.
The MCP diehard has appealed to all those that have received favors from the Mec and courts to go for a second trial in the By-elections, not to waste their financial resources that their constituents can change their hearts to vote for them as Members of Parliament (MPs).Limpopo FM accuses Vitumbiko Mumba of planning to hack BMTV
Kamphangala was reacting to the Malawi Electoral Commission (Mec) decision of nullifying the parliamentary elections for Lilongwe City Mtandire- Mtsiriza constituency that the Commission will hold a by-election on a date to be advised.
Unofficial results from the constituency showed that George Zulu (MCP) got 12,284 votes while Alfred Gangata (DPP) 12,289 votes meaning that only 5 votes separated the winner from the loser, prompting the loser George Zulu to lodge a complaint with Mec demanding for recounting of votes.Where Is the MCP NEC?

In his petition to Mec, George Zulu said the constituency tally centre recorded 445 void votes and the District tally centre recorded 345 void votes saying this anomaly contributed to his loss and prayed for vote recounting.
‘Follow President Chakwera accepting the results of the elections, if you compete, you will lose miserably and it will be an embarrassment defeat destroying your future plans in politics,” said Kamphangala.
He has described reports coming from State House that some people are taking advantage that President Chakwera has lost the presidential election, they are busy looting state property, others cutting down trees carelessly and hunting animals.
The MCP diehard has advised outgoing President Chakwera to arrest all those that are connected to this thieving scheme at the State House for his honor, respect and glory to be appreciated by all saying this has never and ever happened in the history of State House.
Kamphangala has finally called upon MCP supporters to accept defeat just like President Chakwera has done that in any election, there is only one winner saying what these officers are doing at the State House is speaking for itself that MCP will never come back to rule the country anymore.
