Mwanza Central legislator and Democratic Progressive Party (DPP) national executive committee member Nicholas Dausi has expressed ignorance of his dismissal from the opposition party.

In a statement released on Sunday and signed by DPP spokesperson Shadric Namalomba, DPP said Dausi was fired following a recommendation from the party’s disciplinary committee and the decision by the Central Executive Committee which found him guilty of misconduct contrary to the DPP’s constitution.

Dausi: I am hearing
it from you

“Hon. Dausi ceases to be the party’s member of Parliament and its publicity secretary,” reads the communication.

But in a telephone interview on Sunday, Dausi said he was not aware of his expulsion and that his reaction will only come when he gets the official commission.

“What? I am hearing it from you… I will only comment if I am officially communicated to. Thank you,” he said.

Signed statement:
Namalomba

Put to Namalomba that Dausi was ignorant of the party’s decision, the DPP spokesperson insisted that Dausi was communicated to.

Dausi was recently seen at a Malawi Congress Party rally in Mwanza, but the communication from DPP does not mention the actual misconduct on the part of Dausi.

Dausi was previously a long-time member of the MCP before he switched sides to DPP where he held positions both in the party as spokesperson and Cabinet minister.
