LILONGWE-(MaraviPost)-The opposition Democratic Progressive Party (DPP) deputy national publicity secretary (central) Chris Michael Thaulo over the weekend resigned from the party, pointing to aggressive environment that has potential to wipe out his political ambitions.
In a letter addressed to office of party president and available to The Maravi Post, Thaulo therefore praised DPP president Peter Mutharika for trusting him on the position and he has congratulated those that have been newly elected in some positions saying he believes in discipline and order in every grouping.
This comes a few days after party’s national director of operations Mwai Kamuyambeni also resigned.
The infighting in the party however has taken next level as leader of opposition Kondwani Nankhumwa and secretary general Grezelder Jeffrey have obtained court injunction restraining the DPP from firing them from their positions.
On Sunday, Nankhumwa addressed a multitude of supporters in his capacity as leader of opposition and vice president of the party at Bangwe in Blantyre while the party president Mutharika was having audience with DPP MPs in Mangochi where among others they elected Francis Kasaila as leader of opposition in Parliament.
On Saturday, October 3, 2020 Nankhumwa and other three expelled senior party member obtained court order stopping DPP leadership to fire them.
