Africa-Press – Malawi. <\/strong><\/span>Member of Parliament for Mangochi South West Shadreck Namalomba says he wants Leader of Opposition Kondwani Nankhumwa to start consulting Democratic Progressive Party (DPP) president Peter Mutharika before making decisions in Parliament.<\/p>\n

Namalomba said he has obtained a court order against Nankhumwa because what the Leader of Opposition is doing is not right and the party leadership is being sidelined a thing which is not on.<\/p>\n

The injunction stops Nankhumwa\u2019s recent appointment of a shadow cabinet and DPP spokespersons in the House without the party\u2019s approval. The order is also staying a decision by Leader of Opposition to change the sitting plan that moved Namalomba to seat number 100 from seat number 25.<\/p>\n

\u201cBasically what I want from the Leader of Opposition is to respect the President of the party, to consult him and the party whenever he is making a decision. As a leader, he should at least consult the party for approval. I am not against his leadership but he should respect the party and also the President of the party and this is simple,\u201d said Namalomba.<\/p>\n

On Nankhumwa\u2019s decision to change his seat, Namalomba said he does not want to sit at the back because he cannot see well from a far. \u201cWith my eyesight problem it\u2019s difficult and this is not a right thing. I feel I am being tortured by the Leader of Opposition, I feel that my rights are being infringed,\u201d said Namalomba.<\/p>\n

On Thursday morning, Namalomba was back to his seat number 25 but Nankhumwa stood in the House reminding the Speaker of the letter he sent to her office changing the sitting plan.<\/p>\n

The Speaker then ordered that the sitting plan be maintained saying her office hasn\u2019t been served with the court order yet. She ordered Namalomba to relocate to his new allocated seat. But Namalomba insisted that he has obtained a court order which is allowing him to return to his seat number 25.<\/p>\n

He alleged that Nankhumwa is torturing him because he used his powers as Public Accounts Committee Chairperson to order him (Nankhumwa) to return the money he pocketed as COVID-19 allowances.<\/p>\n

But the Speaker said the Court is aware of the procedure to be followed to serve the House with the order and without the order the House will maintain the sitting plan and this made Namalomba relocate to his new back seat.<\/p>\n
