Three people who were dismissed from their positions in the Democratic Progressive Party (DPP) are seeking reinstatement before May 9, 2023.

The three, Ackim Mwanza, Kelvin Chirambo and Joyce Chikukula, threaten to seek legal remedies if not reinstated.
They were dismissed from the positions of Regional Governor, Director of Youth and Director of Women, respectively, in the Northern Region.

In a demand letter from their lawyer George Kazipatike, the three contend that their dismissals were not only unfair, unreasonable and in violation of principles of natural justice, but also create a bad impression that the DPP is lawless and does not follow its own Constitution to the letter.

The letter has been addressed to the party’s president Peter Mutharika.

Effort to talk to DPP spokesperson Shadreck Namalomba proved futile.
