Malawi Congress Party leaders threw serious accusations at former President Peter Mutharika about his health Thursday. Jessie Kwabwira claimed the elderly politician needs regular medical shots just to stay active. She demanded doctors check Mutharika before he runs for office again. The party spokeswoman thinks someone wants to control the country from behind the scenes. Democratic Progressive Party members might be using Mutharika as their puppet candidate.
Kwabwira invited all former presidents to attend Independence Day festivities at Bingu National Stadium July 6th. She praised current President Lazarus Chakwera for making progress across multiple areas. The ruling party representative highlighted improvements to schools, hospitals, and roads despite tough economic times. Natural disasters and financial problems could not stop government achievements according to her claims. National unity remains important even during heated political debates.
Mutharika rejected the celebration invitation through social media posts on Facebook. He complained about not receiving proper official contact from event organizers. The former leader questioned celebrating when citizens face poverty, medicine shortages, and fuel problems. His response showed growing tensions before September 16th general elections approach quickly. Political experts wonder if Mutharika will actually seek the presidency again.
President Chakwera will lead this year's ceremony themed around rebuilding the nation's foundations. Botswana President Duma Gideon Boko plans to attend as special guest. The visiting leader will receive a special Freedom of the City honor during festivities. Campaign season heats up as political parties prepare for electoral battles ahead.
