According to private radio, Zodiak, Mtumodzi confirmed that Ntata– a Barrister at law — was appointed by President Mutharika on August 15.

No wonder when i saw him on the SDA’s big sabbath in Wales last month with a smiling face while playing his guitar. This guy bought expensinve cars which he said its duty free coz the government is going to support him. I dont think he has paid anything to the MRA or customs DEPARTMENTS. All the best Ntata and dont forget to thank Bright Malopa and Bingus brother Peter for favouring u.
OSAMACHULKA ZOKAMBA PA NET MWAMVA MR.MKANDO.THE ISSUE HERE HAS BEEN CONFIRMED NOT TRUE.
Mkando should check his/her facts before lying to people with potentially libelous comments. Did he/she expect Ntata to be crying while playing his guitar at church? And can you tell us the types of cars, their registrations and their costs and where they are now situated?
Why should Ntata thank Bright Malopa and Peter? Are these the ones that appointed him?
If you have nothing to say but gossip, shut up!
Whatever, Bola anameta. ishhh
The youngman is qualified for the job. Why majerase a Mkando. If indeed he bought the cars so let it be. Muluzi bought over two hundred cars for personal use duty free. CONGRATS MTATA. I will miss you though on TVM.
WHO TOLD YOU MKANDO THAT HE DIDNT PAY CUSTOMS? SIYANI PHAZI MLOMO UZAKUPEZANI
Allan Ntata ndi Bright Malopa, keep on helping Ngwazi Dr Bingu. We saw how you(Bright Malopa) profiled Peter Mutharika eventually that propelled him to the august house. Do not wonder when I book you to be my campaign team in the near future. Adios!!You deserve such pay back.
Koma a Malopa U acting akuchiteni confirm.
Much as I thank the President for choosing the qualified and compitent laywer for the position, my million question is does it mean that there are no other well qualified people from other regions? I think this young old man is too neptistics.
I used to see this man on TVM frequently during campaign time. He had long hair like njuni ya chabwerekera. Am sure he was advised to cut his hair so that the viewers could take him seriously. Well, he seems to have some guts in law but too much zibwana! Hope he is going to change. Now, where have you put his friends: wa history uja and wa social studies. Anyway all the best in climbing up the ladder. May God bless Malawi.
We wish him all the best koma adzipesa tsisi.
Msiyeni mwana adyerere a Mkando. Kaduka ayi. All the best mwana Allan.
I was reading through hoping that Nyasa times will tell us that he is alomwe.
