Former Vice President and leader of Assembly for Democracy and Development (ADD) Cassim Chilumpha has accused the current ruling Tonse Alliance government of failing to end corruption in the country as it promised during campaign.

Speaking at Nyambadwe primary school ground in Ndirande, Blantyre on Sunday where he held a political rally, Chilumpha said Tonse Alliance promised Malawians that it will end corruption which is dragging Malawi behind in terms of development but that has until now not been complimented.

The Ex-Veep claimed that the involvement of vice president Dr. Saulos Chilima in the $280,000 corruption case is a clear indication that the Tonse Alliance administration has failed to end corruption in Malawi

He urged people to vote for him as Malawi president during 2025 general elections if Malawi is to do well in all aspects of development.

According to Chilumpha, the prevailing challenges of hunger, fuel shortage and high cost of living under Tonse Alliance warrant a change of leadership in 2025.

He said once voted into power,he will introduce a 10-member cabinet so as to avoid careless plunder of public resources.

Chilumpha added that his leadership will also ensure smooth cash flow in the country.

“We want Malawians to have money and that is why ADD is here for. That is why I am here for.I am urging you to vote wisely in 2025,” he said.

Chilumpha served as the country’s vice president from 2004 to 2009.
