Controversial senior member of the National Governing Council (NGC) of the former ruling Democratic Progressive Party (DPP), Ken Msonda, has alleged that he is living in poverty because he refused to participate in plunder of public resources by the DPP officials.
Msonda claims majority of the wealthy DPP officials benefitted from the free-for-all theft of public resources and corruption, which former President Arthur Peter Mutharika’s administration oversaw during the six years of his leadership.
The foot-soldier makes the allegations in a voice note that has gone viral on social media.
In the audio clip, Msonda is accusing DPP spokesperson Shadric Namalomba of being one of the beneficiaries of theft of public resources that happened during the Mutharika regime.
He made the allegations during his interview with Zodiak Broadcasting Station (ZBS). Apparently, Msonda is responding to sentiments Namalomba made in an exclusive interview with the same radio station, a few days after Msonda had his own interview there.
Msonda dares Namalomba to try to ‘kill me see the consequences you will suffer’.
“Ine ndinatsanzika pochoka kumudzi kwathu kupita ku Blantyre. Ndinali ndi agogo anga omwe adandiletsa kunyamuka tsiku limene ine ndidakonza chifukwa anali asadamalize kundipempherera kwa Mulungu (I bade farewell to my ancestors because going to Blantyre. I had prayerful ancestors who invoked the power of God on me before I left for Blantyre. Namalomba is too small,” says Msonda in the clip.
Namalomba could not be immediately reached for a comment on the matter.
The Msonda-Namalomba spat signifies the depth of hatred among DPP officials ahead of the court-sanctioned convention.
Meanwhile, the relegated DPP Secretary General Grezelder Jeffrey, has dragged his party leader, Mutharika, to court over the recent assignment the latter made barely some hours after Jeffrey convened an NGC meeting in Lilongwe.
In the recent assignment, Mutharika assigned Jeffrey to the position of Vice President for the Central Region and in her place, Clement Mwale has been appointment.
Jeffrey is fighting her recent appointment, arguing that, as someone who was elected at the convention, she can only be removed for her position at a convention.
