Hypocrite on the Move Indeed

MCP president Lazarus Chakwera continues to unveil his hypocrisy at every possible moment, something like daily confirmations that he preaches against what he does, that he is a man who can’t be trusted.

Chakwera visited South Africa last week in a Leader of Opposition capacity when he rejected the position here at home, saying his Malawi Congress Party is not in opposition because he won the May 2019 presidential election.

As a result, MCP appointed Lilongwe Central legislator, Lobin Lowe, as interim Leader of Opposition in Parliament (LOP). The announcement was made by First Deputy Speaker Madalitso Kazombo on 3 July.

Yet when an opportunity to travel to South Africa in Leader of Opposition capacity arose, Chakwera jumped on the trip. He went to South Africa to pretend he is Leader of Opposition in Malawi.

Why did Reverend Chakwera pretend to be Leader of Opposition? Three weeks ago, on 25 August, I published an article in which I concluded that Chakwera’s life has been a pursuit of power and money, that he has been a man in a hurry for power and money, and that he remains a man in a hurry for power and money, even now, in politics, years after he retired from the Assemblies of God.

When it is work in Parliament in Malawi, Lowe is Leader of Opposition. But when there is an allowance, there is travel, and there is TV appearance involved, Chakwera is Leader of opposition.
Ha! Hypocrite on the move indeed.
