‘I don’t drink Kachasu, I drink red wine’ –Mutharika

President Professor Arthur Peter Mutharika has trashed claims by former President Dr. Joyce Banda that he embarrassed her in China after getting drunk.

Recently Banda told people that gathered at Njamba Freedom Park in the commercial capital Blantyre that Mutharika is an ‘imbiber’ and during a trip to China he failed to control himself.

But Mutharika trashed Banda’s claims.

“I don’t drink Kachasu. I drink red wine,” said Mutharika.

Mutharika went further by accused Joyce Banda of being a prostitute.

“I will tell you the genesis of her hatred. It was in China when we were switching ties from Taiwan to China. She did not know anything about it because Bingu did not fully trust her. We went to China to negotiate the deal. When the deal was finalised, Joyce Banda was involved. We all went to China. When we went to China, she wanted to occupy the room next to the President.

“The room next to the President is occupied by his security detail. I told Banda that she could not occupy that room and she was angry. I told her that she should not export her prostitution from Lilongwe to China,” said Mutharika.

Mutharika is currently on whistle stop tour in Thyolo to campaign for DPP-UDF alliance ahead of the fresh Presidential polls.
