Political activist Bon Kalindo, has called on the two Democratic Progressive Party (DPP) camps infighters to always remember that Malawians are in pain and suffering and their hope is in this former ruling party to rescue them from the problems they are going through under the Tonse Alliance-led administration.
Kalindo says all Malawian eyes are on the DPP and that it is their lamp for change of government claiming that if Malawi was to change to the better, Chakwera and Chilima leadership was there to lead the citizens to the promised Canaan but they have all failed to govern Malawi.

He says people in the central region districts who mostly depend on farming are in pain and suffering for no hope of fertilizer.
He says the people are sharing fertilizer in basins after government registered one or two in each village as beneficiaries to the 2023-2024 Affordable Input Programme (AIP) farming season.
Speaking through an audio clip circulating in various social media platforms, Kalindo says Malawians are disappointed to learn that the two DPP Camps are fighting for electoral delegates saying this alone explains that there is more to come.
Kalindo has however, asked DPP aspirants for a presidential race that what is it exactly they are looking for; fame that they once stood as a presidential candidate or liberating the country appealing to them not to take Malawians for granted.
He says had it been that the DPP aspirants were strong politicians enough, they would have formed their own political parties than be part of infighting in the DPP against the choice of the DPP members Professor Arthur Peter Mutharika to liberate Malawians.
The Activist has also warned the DPP that it fails to put its house to order, it will go to the 2025 elections without a presidential candidate reminding it that the court gave it 90 days to hold an elective conference and those 90 days expired, the infighting is continuing.
‘”Reading from the writings on the wall, some people have been sponsored and sent to destroy the DPP, In America, Donald Trump wants to stand as President and why not Malawi,”says Kalindo.
He says the country has been crying for youth empowerment and leadership positions, Chakwera and Chilima have disappointed Malawians claiming that leadership should not be a question of the old and young but ability to lead the people.
Kalindo has thanked Frank Tumpale Mwenefumbo for forming his own political party appealing to DPP Presidential aspirants to borrow a leaf from Mwenefumbo other than fighting the DPP through court injunctions against injunctions.
He finally says he is seeing voter apathy, teargas, gunshots and violence in the 2025 elections as Malawians are not ready to give Chakwera and Chilima votes to bounce back into government.

Democratic Progressive Party (DPP) National Governing Council( NGC) member Kenneth Msonda, says he is now happy to learn that those that were hiding in his name are speaking for themselves citing Leader of Opposition in Parliament Kondwani Nankhumwa.
Msonda says he has nothing to lose describing politicsas a serious business.
He says some politicians thought that they were using him not knowing that he has been using them to advance his political career and no one can kill his career.
Msonda says from 2020 his political profile graph has grown high claiming himself that he is in the top 10 of prominent politicians in the mind of Malawians out of 100 politicians speaking for itself that he has been changing colours not to be used by anyone in politics.
Ken Msonda
Speaking through an audio clip circulating in various social media platforms, Msonda says he went to court to withdraw a case for Professor Arthur Peter Mutharika not standing in the 2025 elections as DPP Presidential torchbearer proving to all that he was not sent by anyone in the DPP.
Msonda has dismissed claims made by other members of the DPP that he belongs to Kondwani Nankhumwa’s camp claiming that his going to court was made by himself and not sent by anyone saying even Nankhumwa was not aware and was very surprised to learn of his decision.
He says he travelled to Mangochi to attend the NGC meeting on his own accord and that his phone was off and after opening it, he saw a message written by Nankhumwa that he was taking a risk of being beaten up by DPP cadets, a thing which did not happen.
The NGC member says for these two occasions, going to court to withdraw a case against Mutharika and attending NGC meeting in Mangochi, it is a clear testimony that no one can use him in politics but he uses other politicians for him to advance in his political ambition.
“Nankhumwa was not aware and was surprised hearing of the two developments, for 30 years, have been in active politics running frontline decisions, decisions that are concreate, one cannot finish me, I will finish him,” says Msonda.
During the NGC meeting in Mangochi, former President and DPP leader Professor Arthur Peter Mutharika accused Msonda of working hard to destroy the DPP telling him openly that if he is tired with the DPP, he should go back to his former party-the Peoples Party.
Msonda apologized for everything praying for a renewed commitment declaring his interest to contest for DPP Vice President for the North position during the forthcoming elective conference.
