Malawians cannot afford beef and goat in these hard times of Dpp era.Akhokhori from Lomwe land eats cats?What is the matter with that?Alot have eaten kanyenya wa galu since 2001 and what has happened to them? There is nothing in our culture that says that people should not eat dogs.Ma China have longer life span than the picky Malawians.Chamiyendo four chidyedwe basi.

I’m shocked to read comments that state dog meat should be legalised. Yes, the Chinese have cruelly slaughtered dogs for their consumption for centuries, they also drink the blood of snakes!!!! Would you? It’s not in our culture to devour dog or cat.

Excessive sentence by any standard. He sold food. Selling food made from dog meat cannot be a crime.

in the first place we need to define culture. in Malawi we have cultural diversity owing to our various ethnic tribes. who defined that eating dogs is uncultural in Malawi . Are dogs human? These are animals that can be eaten by anyone otherwise choosing to eat dogs in my view not a crime. If you say he concealed the identity of the carcass perhaps that can be viewed as wrong doing but not to an extent of jailing someone. Amangwetu bwanji kodi

So what is the name of this crime you guys in the legal profession? What does the constitution say about edible meats? Or was he arrested because he concealed the identity of the meat he was selling? This is retrogressive. you are refusing to recognize law graduates from private colleges yet you use these magistrates who know next to nothing about law. 12 months behind bars for this misdemeanor? Oh no.

@ Chimms you are right. Milandu ya osauka sichedwa kugamulidwa koma cashgate now more that two years. Point of correction Chimms, this crime was committed some 5 days ago

Malawi is failing to progress because of our mindset. Dog meat is cheaper. This is why Chinese people are rich because they spend less on food. But Malawians, they can pay 1Kg of beef at K1,600.00 yet a 20 Kg dog cost less than K5000.00. The man is a great thinker this is better than stealing.
