A revolution is looming in the opposition Democratic Progressive Party (DPP) with promotional material being circulated calling on members to join this movement.
Inside sources have confided with us that the revolution called ‘Blue Revolution’ is being led by DPP members from various professional backgrounds whose aim is to fight for change amid different factions in the party and position it for victory in 2025.
“The ongoing problems within the DPP persist due to several factors that have resulted in a lack of cease in these issues. The so-called “blue revolution” has noticed a concerning trend where personal interests take precedence over the party’s interests as a whole.
“This observation has shed light on the detrimental impact caused by individuals who are entrusted with the responsibility of fostering unity and maintaining the party’s credibility, as they prioritize their personal agendas, hence this movement,” said the source.
This is a continuation of formation of several factions in the party as a result of leadership wrangles which continue rising.
President of Muvi wa Chilungamo Revolutionary Party (MRP) Bantu Saunders Jumah, has advised the Human Rights Defenders Coalition (HRDC) to join Malawi first for a renewed trust that they are walking together with the suffering Malawians.
Jumah has described the HRDC as dead woods claiming that during the DPP reign, they gave pressure to the DPP and its leader Professor Arthur Peter Mutharika but for three years of the MCP led Tonse Alliance in government, they are sleeping.
He has condemned the HRDC for issuing a statement calling for President Dr. Lazarus McCarthy Chakwera to fire non- performing ministers describing this as wanting to fool Malawians that they are with them while the truth of the matter is that they are part of the MCP.

Speaking through his face book page followed by millions of Africans across the continent, Jumah said the statement released by the HRDC is just a trick to confuse and fool Malawians for Malawi First not to go to the streets of State House on the 30th August, 2023.
Jumah said Muvi wa Chilungamo is supporting initiatives of liberating Malawi from the jaws of the MCP led government claiming that government is not listening to the cries of the citizens as Malawians are in deep pain and suffering.
He said Malawi needs citizen voices for government to wake-up observing that President Chakwera and his ministers are sleeping on duty as if everything is good on the ground, they care nothing for the country and its citizens what they care most, are their pockets.
The MRP President has appealed to opposition political parties in the country to support activists when they are going to the streets on the 30th August, 2023 advising them that activists are fighting for them to win the coming elections.
He has advised the authorities in Malawi to allow activists present their petition to the President who was elected and is employed by the citizens holding the highest office of the land in line with the constitutional requirement of 100 meters.
“Activists are going to the State House to voice out Malawian concerns for Chakwera to listen to the cries of Malawians , they don’ have any other country apart from Malawi,’’said Jumah.
He expressed hope that President Chakwera after receiving the petition, he will come back to his senses and call for early elections in Malawi but unfortunately he and his Vice President Dr. Saulosi Klaus Chilima are all aware that if the elections are held today, they will lose.
