Take the case to the end, let the learned Judge (Kamwambi) rule on the case.Dont hide behind party financing.You mean UDF as a party did not have a party account? We were told Press Corporation belonged to Kamuzu but UDF managed to find some laws to grab it and form Press Trust.Do you know where Kamuzu got the money to start Press Corporation? You mean Kamuzu did not have well wishers and it is only Muluzi who had well wishers as preisdent? One wonders why Kondowe has created his own trial of the Muluzi case outside the court systems? Is… Read more »

The ACB is joking. If Muluzi is let free, then the ACB should just close offices because it is a useless organization. How can you say there is not evidence to prosecute Muluzi? Muluzi was earning less than 1 million a month for so many years. How come he was found with 1.7 billion in his account? His businesses were barely surviving. Where are his businesses today?
If anything, Gustva Kaliwo should have been roped in.

There is politics going on here.

O………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………..O Something must be wrong somewhere . . . . . . You have previously been parading this Muluzi in court; was this done without any evidence? . . . If Lucas is new, why not check with his predecessors, the evidence Muluzi was previously taken to court on? . . . Or Khondowe would want to tell us he’s wiser than his predecessors; hence this easy realisation? Ha! . . . And how long has this case been going on for, if not more than 10 years? . . . Now, did it have to take 10 or 11… Read more »

Everyone who loves this country would love to see the ACB being completely independent. However, what the Chakhwanthas and the Kamulepos of this world wanted was not to make ACB independent. They wanted the ACB to be under their control. How, then, can you call that the independence of the ACB? The executive and the legislature are run by politicians. Moving the ACB from the umbrella of the executive to be under the legislature cAnNot make the ACB independent, or can it? This will not change anything at all. May be I have misunderstood your comment. But if you are… Read more »

O…………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………..O Truth is, nobody and no any organisation is ever independent of everybody in this world, in toto . . . . . . independence, at any point in time; is therefore always relative, either more or less. Nonetheless, if reference is made to Lameck Salamange’s article of 31 July, 2016; on the need to place the DPP manifesto in the fiction section of Malawi’s libraries; independence is defined and I quote . . . ” . . . the Director of the ACB will be appointed on merit, through a special public appointments committee . . . .” If… Read more »

Of course you are right that it’s easy to tell that the ACB is more independent not under one man. But both of us know pretty well that in Africa, no MP is independent of their block. If you belong to opposition, for example, you act according to what the opposition leadership dictates and not what the people you are representing want. The same can also be said of the MPs who belong to the government block. The end result is that the parliament becomes one man’s show depending on the block that enjoys majority in that five year period.… Read more »

Chititimbe, I think Analyst is right. ACB is more independent under a committee than a president. Although thre may be abuse in both cases, the extent of the abuse is different. In my opinion, I think being under one person makes the person abuse ACB as he likes, unlike a committee which canT always agree to abuse ACB. since independence is relative as said by analyst, under a committee, ACB is more independent.

Inu Mr November, Chitimbe is right and we cannot trust Parliament to be controlling ACB. The best way to ensure independence of the ACB is to appoint its directors and senior officials the way we do with the judges of the High and Supreme courts. Give them conditions of service similar to those of the judges, i.e. that they can only be fired through two thirds majority votes in Parliament. That way the ACB directors will feel secure and will strive to act independently the way our judges try to do. But to leave ACB under the current opposition or… Read more »

I knew that there won’t be any evidence in this case coz it can’t take 15 years to get evidence from transactions of such nature.
