Bingu Stadium arrested staff over Bushiri money expected to appear in court

Malawi Police say two members of staff for Bingu National Stadium who were arrested over the Shepherd Bushiri money are expected to appear in court today for plea.

Nyondo:  Prophet Bushiri   crossover prayers will now take place atMalawi Square, Umodzi Park in Lilongwe.

Police over the weekend arrested an assistant accountant and an auditor after suspecting them of stealing over K5 million prophet Shephered Bushiri paid as advance booking for the stadium.

The police have said the two will be brought to court within the stipulated 48 hour deadline to bring suspects to court.

Lingadzi Police Station spokesperson Salome Zgambo, said police have since launched a manhunt for the third suspect, a principal accountant.

Zgambo said they have since charged the suspects with theft by public servant.

The arrests follow revelations that BNS management failed to refund money Bushiri paid the facility amounting to K6 million.

Documents indicate that Bushiri paid K5 million in cash and after a few days paid an additional K1 million.

However, out of the money paid, only K800 000 was deposited into government account number one.

But following a decision not to let Bushiri use the facility for his church’s crossover service on December 31, he demanded a refund, a development that led to the discovery on the misappropriation of the money.

Meanwhile, Bushiri spokesperson Ephraim Nyondo said the crossover prayers will now take place at Umodzi Park in Lilongwe.

He said all Covid-19 protocols would be followed such that people wishing to attend will have to get tickets in advance.

  1. Both the Auditor and the Accountant have put their profession in desrepute. If the Auditor is stealing who will safeguard the assets of the company? Poor Auditor. To the investigators: Please extend this investigation to previous payments. We might have more issues than this one.

  2. MW aziona tikamati mbava za dpp sizinatheke zonse Zina akuziweta mwaona. Fufuzani mafumu sakala ndilandila ndrama miyezi I kupita Kafukufuku palibe a kumanena kuti malo a count nambala sakulongosoka. Then anapanga headcounting nde zinaipilathu.

Mizimu yonse ya makolo idzatuljka, matron sport a usiku adzatuluka kkkkkk mudzaona afisi atseka msewu pomwe mukufuna mupite ku Mzuzu uuu

  3. Kukasambizgana ukhuluku in the name of Jesus, other people are not ashamed of their crooked behaviour. Lutaninge kasambileninge, Principles of Crooks, ise yayi ivi vya mwawavyuma.

  4. The processes are flawed! How on earth can one pay K5m in cash? It’s stupidity at its best for both parties. Wouldn’t be surprised if this scum involves the whole management team at the stadium.

  5. Nkhani ndiyakuti anthu amene akhala akuba ndalama zimenezi for a long time thus why the stadium fails to pay bill za magetsi, madzi , maintenance etc

  6. The question is why is Bushiri walking around with so much cash. He doesn’t have a bank account to write a cheque or do a wire transfer. This is how money laundering works.

  7. We don’t run a country on the basis of emotions, and change doesn’t come in a day. Tisaiwale komwe dziko likuchokera. A very corrupt government that fed themselves, komanso kuli Covid 19 and ma prices a fuel anakwera kalekale ever since the pandemic on international market. Izi zomangoti mask paboma or chilichonse ma demozi zopanda phindu.

  8. My first reaction was: Holy shit! A conman conned! Ain’t karma a bitch.

    But then, this guy is a THIEVE, A CROOKE, AND A FROUD. He could very well have paid only MK800k, and yet he now wants a refund of MK6m.

    Once a cheat, always a cheat!

  9. Pa 4.5 million a Police apezapo 2million..third thief wailowa naye..pachitauni basis..send a thief to catch another

  10. We are just a nation of thieves who fail to implement the simplest of procedures. We are simply common thieves. Why pay cash in this day and age?

  11. Govt procedures encourage theft. Why not let the customer pay straight into a govt bank account and submit the receipt as proof of payment? Simple! This happen in places like immigration so why not make it standard?

      Ife you employ thieves no matter what you do they will find ways of Ku ku Bela. Don’t employ for the sake of qualifications check Khalidwe. Listen to the speach 0f Kamuzu Banda on ytube when Lilongwe Teachers College was being opened. You will learn so much from the wise Leader

      The government is losing a lot of revenue because of people who are stealing from the government. Here you find the Auditor is also involved. Shame on you. In most of government departments people steal. One individual is difficult but in most occasions a number of staff are involved. A Malawi be satisfied with what you have. You want to have lots of money so that you can drink at Bwandiro.
      When you go to prison and spend 12 years your wife will be married to someone. If you have children they will suffer because of your stupid actions
