The plane was parked at the apron and not in the runway. I think the security personnel will tell us as to what happened. It once happened at Mzuzu airport in 1976 I think whereby an air Malawi norman islander got its engines started by a person from chibanja

Malawi as a country is at the worst of everything under the auspices of this Mutharika government. Talk of fires, food insecurity, the poor economy, state insecurity etc. The list is endless. If I were the president, I should have resigned. The government is given to the dogs.
