Activist Namiwa risks arrest over calling Malawi President Chakwera ‘a joker, time-waster and a comedian’

1. Kungofina kumutchukitsa Munthu pazinthu zopanda pake. Koma Police yathuyi idzamva liyi? Idzachita reform liti kungokhala useless police basi. A Joker, Time waster or Comedian that is not insulting someone. APM I think ankanyosedwa more than zimenezi though kuti kunyozana sikwabwino but Chakwera is a Public figure so live that DPP activist

2. Kodi Winiko alikuti? Kapena wabwereranso ku uphunzitsi wake wa ku primary school after being used like a condom by UTMCP? Nanga Abiti shanil muluzi alikuti? Kapena ali likiliki kutola nkhanu mu Liviridzi river? Ana opusa awa zedi!!!!!

3. I don’t see any reason of arresting someone, by saying comedian, Joker and a time waster. Any of the words used, is just an expression and no insult is used to prove, that Namiwa has done wrong by expressing himself of what he is seeing in Chakwera. This is the freedom of speech were no insult is incited.

4. Those who were born around 1990 shall now be privileged to see nkhanza za MCP which they have been reading all these years. It is always the strategy of MCP to gag freedom of expression first and then apply full throttle nkhanza to it’s citizens. Soon we shall feel as if Malawi is not our country any more. Arbitrary arrests shall be common place. But what is the church and MAM saying in all this? Kodi Chakwera yu tizingomuyang’ana akumera mano chonchi????

5. Deeds are seeds… You called someone ‘prince of thieves’ nd people will call you names. You ascended by demonstrations, you go down by demonstrations. Anyway, I don’t condone what Namiwa did…

6. It will be stupid for this police to arrest this guy. Kainga must know better. Unfortunately our police has never changed an inch, and the Tone Alliance government will not improve this police. Too bad. The police should not be doing this bidding. Chakwera must call Kainja and tell him we are in a democracy where free speech is protected.

7. Don’t arrest that moron but every president deserves respect even if he is one time wasted

8. Ine ndikuwona kuti bwana president musamutengele munthuyu. Ndipo Ife ngati okutsatilani mukatero mutivetsa kukoma. Chomwe chimandisangalatsa mchoti munthu akakwera mungolo iye amalimbana ndi ng’ombe yomwe ikuguza osati ngolo. Zosezo zimathandizira kuti zinthu ziyende

9. I hope this is a joke! Don’t arrest this idiot. Please! A whole govt should never waste its resources on folks who obviously have an corrupt axe to grind after the gravy train have left them behind. His profile will be raised considerably higher were he to be detained for talking shit.

   Chisiyeni chitsilu cha m’mudzi ichi. Adzachiyika maliro wopanda gule.

   1. Infact his profile has been raised considerably higher, for instance I never gave the guy much attention until this time that Chakwera’s cadets have given him much attention. I never knew he was this important

10. It’ll be unlawful arrest. Freedom of speech is being deprived pamenepo. Chitsamunda chinene. Ku court namunati chani inu ma investigators. Kkkkk. Under trained, salvage policemen and women. Instead of kukapanga clean up ku ma police station anu ngati ku mortuary ngati mwasowa chochita. Office yapolice umve ku motury kumaonekanso bwino. Zimagalimoto zakufa asagulitsa bwanji ku maiko ngati ku rsa ku mascrap yadi ndi kugulira paint ndikupaka mumaoffice anuwo. Malo mongomanga ndi za zii ngati mukusowa chochita. Maoffice udzu ngati kumanda kumachita kuwanda aaa. Msizofunikanso zomanga ma office ena ndizongofunika maintains. Ku secondary school kulinso bwinonso. Koma Kamuzu anaferanji ine.Musiyeni Namiwayo bwanji mukufuna kumutseka pakamwa iye ndi maganizo ake mmene akimuonera Chakwera.

11. Ayi anati ndi a Joka osati Joker- Momwe iyenso Chakwera amanenera i will give you one Million Jabs not one Million Jobs kkkkkkkk ambusa ang’ombe anawona nyenyezi kkkk

12. Banana president m’busa, hypocrite

    1. We had gogo petulo as president. He wasted our time alot. Where was this Namiwa when gogo petulo was sleeping on duty? This Namiwa is full of political hate. You could see his face during press conferances that hate is written all over it.

13. The fact is no person is bigger than Freedom of Speech. If you do not want to face Freedom of speech, just step down from politics or from holding public position

14. Parliament shall not make law respecting an establishment of religion nor prohibiting free exercise thereof: nor a bridging the freedom of speech or the press or the right of citizens peacefully to assemble and to petition government for a redress of grievances.

    The French, too canonized free speech in article 9 and 10 of 1789 Declaration on the Rights of Man and citizens.

    No intimidation to anyone. No intimidation to journalists.

    Is Malawi an island which wants to operate away from the rest of civilized world! Move away from those Draconian Laws of oppressing free speech.

    1. Perhaps help us in quoting what the Malawi Supreme Law wrt Free Speech states so that we appreciate and then compare with the French

       1. Malawi Constitution in Black and White English

          Section 34 Freedom of Opinion states that and i QUOTE: Every person shall have the right to freedom of of opinion , including the right to hold , receive , and impact opinions without interference.

          Section 35 Every person shall have the right to freedom of expression

          section 36 Freedom of the Press
          The press shall have the right to report and publish freely , within Malawi and abroad, and to be accorded the fullest possible facilities for access to public information.

          Now the question which Malawians should ask themselves is simply this: Are the Police operating on another invisible constitution ?

       2. Law precedence universally applies, or should I also explain myself?

15. Inu munkatukwana APM koma sadakumangeni. Lero mwanyozedwa chifukwa cha kulephera kwanu ndiye muyambe kumanga anthu? Tayamba kuziona nkhanza zija. Mbambadi fisi ndi fisi sasintha. Ambuye achite nanu!

    1. Koma ankaphulisa mabomba. DPP ikulira mofwenthera

16. Dziko losauka ngati zochitika mbweeee. Namiwa ndi wa dpp and anthuwa ali ndi zolinga. Wina ndi Willy Malimba.

17. It is very true that Chakwela is a joker and comedian. Any reasonable person can see that. The bible says do not cheat. But this Chakwela (fallen man of God) does that as normal. Very shameful!! If a president fails to chose his ministers, what else can he do? Presiding over functions? Useless!!!! Failed leadership. Chakwela will be remembered as a worst president in the history of Malawi. Bloodshed president.

18. Not only is Chakwera a joker or comedian is a confused, directionless half wit. He has doesnt even know what he is doing. He acting drama. FREAK!!!!!!!!

19. Wayankhula ngamo! This Kwantelekwantele guy is wasting our time and joking with our lives!

20. Aka ndika bungee ka DPP so kasamanamizire Kuti kakupanga za Huma Rights nthawi ya campaign Manali kumbuyo Kwa DPP achina Chakwera ndi SKC anali anthu owukila Boma panopa akufuna kupitiliza zomwe ankapanga muulamuliro wawo. Ulendo uwu sizitheka ndipo sitilora Kuti wina akakhuta azingotukwana a Puledenti ndi awachiwiri wawo. A polisi tazingogwilani ntchito yanu ndipo muuzane mupeze zochita zina otherwise mukathera Ku ndende

    1. Mbuzi

21. The dude used to call all manner of names to APM and said when there were vacancies it was party cronies taking them and now he is president and doing the same stupid things. Imagine his chief secretary has appointed Tony Bandulo as director of E government yet the dude has a mere MCE certificate and a certificate for phone repairs from Sanwecka. Chakwera is not only dull but redundant in thinking that is why he is hiring back people from retirement to run government affairs.

    1. You still believe in papers boss, ability is what matters. Paper thinking people will just roam the streets. Join the thinking and action club-let those with ability win regardless of regional colors!!!!

       1. Paper matter a lot. They show that you can read and comprehend. Lazy people with studies have this tiring excuse of ‘paper is not important’. I say ‘get the paper but also explore your other abilities’, much better is to get that paper in your explorations. Zimangovuta koma hustle ija ukakhala ndi pepala, imakhala hustle ya smart. Osati chiponyeponye nkhondo ya angoni, mhhh muuzeni mwana wanu alimbikeko zasukulu

       2. Then abolish the requirement for certificates if that is the consideration. We have equally capable people out there who can do things but dont have certificates. Why should people waste time in class when all what you need is to be capable. Akanakhala ndi nzeru akanayamba bozinesi yake ngati ali wokutha.

22. Why stoop so low Mr President? We’re tired of this drama that’s why we voted Peter muthalika out of office..just focus on ur campaign promises..Malawians want development! Whether Namiwa is cadet or not we shud never as Malawians condone this bhaviour of govts using police..if we clap hands for it now tomorrow it will worsen…never shud chakwera make our demonstrations of Muthalika must fall invain! Never

23. I dont like Namiwa, but i will defend the right to speech of any Malawian to express their opinion.

    The President is not God, if people think he is stupid or useless or a joke, so what?? Its their own useless and stupid opinion and they have a right to it.

    Lets not create mini Gods in this country, it is what has destroyed many African nations: Intolerance.

    Focus in development, not punishing citizens for thinking and expressing.

24. So somebody up there is using the police to silence the Namiwas. Such practice did not succeed in silencing the ‘Namiwas’ during Hastings Banda regime; I am therefore not sure if in this democracy such practice will not rather breed and amplify many Namiwas. You need to tread carefully Chimwendo Banda

25. Some people think that use of abusive language against leaders should be tolerated in the name of freedom of speech. That’s absolutely nonsense! People are free and should be left free to criticize leaders. That’s how democracy works, but democracy does not allow empty headed people to waste our time with nothing but foul language. We witnessed the same nonsense even with the past presidents. The exact way those empty headed people were dealt with should be used with Namiwa. In most cases these people do that against their own consience just to survive economically. And they are mostly one sided. Look at what Namiwa does when one of his masters is found on the wrong side of the law.Shameful!

    Another point to our Police is that you should always follow the law when making such investigations. If you are not sure whether someone has broken any law, then don’t arrest anyone. I don’t see any reason for arresting this innocent journalist. If you think Namiwa abused his rights by saying what he said, then focus on him.

    1. Too many words from someone who skipped too many classes on bill of rights

26. Insults should not be mistaken with freedom of speech, hence arrest the son of a b b biscuit. Yakutuma failure/nepotistic/tribalist/regionalist nkhalamba yako ku Mangochi?

    1. Do you realise that you actually insult the nation when you over-tout the over-consulting clueless dude who is supposed to be a president, but learn from us, we are not whining at your insults. Respect free opinion you worshippers of a joker, time-waster and a comedian

    2. where is the insult, calling someone a joker, time waster or comedian is not an insult at all because that is simply to say someone is not serious. So how can that be interpreted as insult? you young pioneers will never learn to reason properly, pali chifukwa cha arrest apa?

27. If you want freedom of speech go to America. This is Africa. President has to be respected. Know your limits.

    1. please be realistic.there was freedom of speech during the previous regim.what is so special about this current president.This time is not kamuzu’s time that you should intimidate people.that is unacceptable.Did you bnot use bad language against peter? Or do you think the current president is more malawian than everybody else.That is childish.

    2. This is MCP rule, but not Banda regime. We are in the 21st century. Freedom of speech prevails. The President can be respected and criticised at the same time.

28. KODI CHAKWERAYO WASANDUKA CHOOPHYESELA ??? ZAYAMBIKA LITI?

29. Zikuwoneka ngati tayambaso kubwelela mchikale 1990s

30. Freedom of speech, leave the man alone. Not everyone agrees with what he says but those are his opinions and he is entitled to them. Donald trump was being made fun of on a daily but not one day did the police stoop this low. When we accepted democracy this is what we accepted. Freedom of speech. Just focus on your campaign items, that’s what matters

    1. I agree with u Limbani

    2. Chilima used to call Peter nkhalamba ya zaka 80, so what’s special with Chakwera

       1. Kkkkk. That’s his age. Police arrest Namiwa please. The very same way you arrested Kamulepo when he said ” Ka Ngwazi”

31. Namiwa is going over the board , he has no respect to the authority ,he behaves as if he is real Cadet , what kind of a person is this one , he comments everything that is against the government, I have never seen him commenting on corruption done by DPP through its Senior members when ACB question these members , he comes out defending them ,

    1. Namiwa is very much a cadet and is being paid by DPP thieves to be making noise under the banner of a non-profit which could be fraudulent. Both electoral and criminal offences.

       The police are within their jurisdiction to ask the Nyasatimes reporter if he was offered money by Namiwa or anyone else to print the story as part of a conspiracy to disturb the peace.

       1. MCP Diehard, you have the same right as Namiwa to spread your respective propaganda. We who understand freedoms of speech and association will not fault your religious association with MCP in the same way you should not fault Namiwas allegiance. About his NGO you write ‘could be’, well, you speculation mongers are a waste of space (‘could be’? Seriously??). And then comes your second paragraph that resembles you, pathetic. Start getting acquainted with the bill of rights and begin to understand why we have been free to coin the term ‘joker, time-waster, and comedian’ on Bakili, Bingu, JB, APM but of course we were good reserving the designation for the right individual, you know who? Your guess is as good as mine, for the first time in history a president gets confused about who to fire for not kissing his ass

          1. Ha! You just must be learning about freedom of speech. smh……There are limits to that freedom dummy! I will let you go find out the limits yourself so you can learn a thing or two of what you speak.

             If Namiwa is claiming any tax-exemption status but running this little briefcase NGO for personal gain and profit, then we will pull him out of whatever hole he crawls out of by the b@##$ until he squeals like a pig. Just like his uncle Chisale cried loudly at mental Zomba hospital

             1. Suit yourself feeling cosy in the embrace of foolishness

    2. Did DPP arrest Mtambo and all those for insulting APM. Your Chakwera insulted APM right within parliament as Prince of Thieves without any evidence, did you hear anyone getting arrested. ?

       1. Time waster indeed and Lord of thieves
          1. He stole cancelled independence celebration money with Chioponda.
          2.he stole cross road money with kapondamgaga and kalumbu.
          3. He stole 6.2 billion with Chiponda.
          4. He is hiring relatives inlaws and party cronies without any interview.
          What more evidence do you need. This man does not keep his word.
