NEW REVELATIONS: DETAILS OF MIDNIGHT MEETING BETWEEN LUTEPO AND MUTHARIKA AT STATE HOUSE BEFORE AN INTERVIEW WITH ZODIAK ARE OUT. Further details that well known cash gate suspect had dinner with President Peter Mutharika at state house before implicating Dr Joyce Banda on Zodiak radio have emerged. It has been revealed that Oswald Lutepo was driven to Blantyre to meet Professor Peter Mutharika at Kamuzu Palace on Tuesday night. State house sources reveal the President had earlier thrown a huge party for journalists and media managers in the Banquet Hall of Sanjika Palace before he met one Oswald Lutepo in the lounge. The Presidents team comprised Kasaila, Ben Phiri, Chaponda, Nankhumwa, Mukhito and other two unidentified individuals. Lutepo was accompanied by an identified Asian and two other unidentified Malawians. The two Malawians spoke fluent English. According to a PMF guard at the main Sanjika Palace entrance, the trio (Lutepo & friends) arrived at the palace around 10:30 pm and were whisked the lounge where Peter and his team met them an hour later. According to the PMF guard, the two teams had discussions for well over four hours and the Lutepo team left Sanjika around 3 am the following morning. One of the two friends was driving a Toyota TX with red registration numbers, implying it was a rented vehicle. The confessions on cashgate and implicating Joyce Banda two days later by Lutepo on Zodiak therefore may be traced back to that long meeting at Sanjika Palace. Did the President dangle an irresistible carrot? was he offered a parole should he implicate the former President in the shameful cashgate scandal? The truth will soon come out as the lines of communication between us and members of the security team at State House continue to open. However, it must be said that President Mutharika must tread carefully when it comes to approving the execution of some of the strategies because they have the capacity to explode right in his face. The President ought to be mindful that Malawians are not a foolish lot. It shall be imerative, most imperative for President Mutharika to draw lessons from the past, especially from the era of his late brother, President Bingu wa Mutharika, who thought by calling Malawians headless chicken, he would rule the country endlessly!
