John Tembo, figure dominante de la politique malawite depuis plus de quatre d\u00e9cennies, est d\u00e9c\u00e9d\u00e9 \u00e0 l’h\u00f4pital de la capitale, Lilongwe, \u00e0 l’\u00e2ge de 91 ans, a indiqu\u00e9 sa famille.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Il est devenu d\u00e9put\u00e9 \u00e0 l\u2019\u00e2ge de 27 ans en 1960, \u00e0 l\u2019approche de l\u2019ind\u00e9pendance du pays vis-\u00e0-vis du Royaume-Uni. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Il est ensuite consid\u00e9r\u00e9 comme le bras droit de l’ancien pr\u00e9sident Hastings Banda et la ni\u00e8ce de M. Tembo, Cecelia Kadzamira, a \u00e9t\u00e9 embauch\u00e9e comme h\u00f4tesse officielle du gouvernement en lieu et place d’une premi\u00e8re dame. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
John Zenus Ungapake Tembo a \u00e9t\u00e9 le premier ministre des Finances du Malawi apr\u00e8s l’ind\u00e9pendance en 1964 et a occup\u00e9 divers autres postes minist\u00e9riels au cours de sa carri\u00e8re.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Il a \u00e9galement \u00e9t\u00e9 chef de la banque centrale et \u00e9tait consid\u00e9r\u00e9 comme le membre le plus influent du gouvernement pendant les 30 ann\u00e9es de r\u00e8gne du Dr Banda. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Populairement connu sous ses initiales JZU, son r\u00f4le le plus important a \u00e9t\u00e9 de faire partie d’un conseil pr\u00e9sidentiel de trois membres qui a gouvern\u00e9 le Malawi entre le 15 octobre et le 8 d\u00e9cembre 1993, lorsque le Dr Banda, alors \u00e2g\u00e9, a subi une op\u00e9ration au cerveau et a \u00e9t\u00e9 jug\u00e9 incapable. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u00c0 la suite d’un r\u00e9f\u00e9rendum en juin 1993, le Malawi a abandonn\u00e9 le r\u00e9gime du parti unique et, lors d’\u00e9lections multipartites historiques l’ann\u00e9e suivante, le Dr Banda et son Parti du Congr\u00e8s du Malawi (MCP) ont perdu le pouvoir. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Cela a permis \u00e0 M. Tembo de devenir une figure \u00e9minente de l’opposition, \u00e0 la t\u00eate du MCP. Il s’est pr\u00e9sent\u00e9 et a perdu les \u00e9lections pr\u00e9sidentielles de 2004 et 2009, \u00e0 chaque fois face \u00e0 Bingu wa Mutharika. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Il a d\u00e9missionn\u00e9 de son poste de leader du MCP en 2013, remplac\u00e9 par Lazarus Chakwera, qui est devenu pr\u00e9sident en 2020.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
