Chaponda appointed head of Parliamentary Service Commission
Malawi Parliament has appointed former Agriculture minister George Chaponda as the chairperson of the powerful Parliamentary Service Commission.
The Commission has powers to hire and fire management of the National Assembly and acts as parliament’s board.
Chaponda, Democratic Progressive Party (DPP) member of parliament for Mulanje south west, led the Parliamentary Service Commission (PSC) last week in conducting an assets inspection tour at the Parliament Building and its infrastructure.
The aim of the inspection was to familiarise the PSC with the institution’s structures and assets.
During the tour, the PSC appreciated the condition of assets that Parliament Secretariat use as well as the environment in which the members of staff operate in.
Chaponda described the inspection tour as productive as the Commission gained an insight of the infrastructure the institution is using.
The Chairperson pledged the Commission’s commitment to resolve the challenges that the institution is facing.
The exercise is in line with Parliament of Malawi’s Strategic Plan(2015-2020) objective four which seeks to ensure that the Parliament Building and its infrastructure operates effectively, meets the Parliament’s needs and is open and accessible to the people of Malawi.
The PSC comprises the following members:
Commissioner George Chaponda
Commissioner Richard Chimwendo Banda
Commissioner Chrispin Mphande
Commissioner John Chikalimba

Where did Bingu (RIP) get the money to build Mpumulo was bats and the Ndata Mansion?
I don’t know why you were not picked as a presidential candidate. The party has gone back to udf since APM is on the death bed. He will not make to to 2025 even 2023. That is why Atupele is running up and down. Chagwa from heaven chikwama for Atupele. These are like windfalls. Nankhumwa’s hopes have been dashed.
Did they change the parliamentary service act? Isn’t the parliamentary service commission supposed to be headed by the speaker? May someone enlighten me please on the change?
By now it is a well known fact that the learned George Thapatula Chaponda (JSD Yale ) was a victim of political mudslinging(A highly effective Weapon of Mass Destruction in political warfare). It is very Unfortunate that his ambition to plot number one was nipped right in the bud by his fellow ‘political fidus achates’. Remember zimamveka kuti it was him who reported to APM about the parallel cabinet that the MIM PhD scholar had set in place when it was rumored that something bad had happened to APM while attending UNGA meetings. Adding salt to the wounds of his… Read more »
Takunyadirani Bwana Chaponda
This is why Africa remains poor, because it’s run by thieves, and all of them easily gets away with corruption
Why George Chaponda Chimanga? This guy has a criminal record, why? That’s why we don’t want DPP.
Known thief in a position of authority … Malawi Government appointing authority never stops to stoop low.
Mediocre and incompetent appointments and we all expect Malawi to progress and develop.
Akuba ali mbali zonse. Chief Cashgate, Joyce Banda is in TONSE TILUZA ALLIANCE waiting to enter and scam Malawians again, NYika corruption Scandal chief, Kaliati is in the same alliance. Reforms thief Chilima is also there.Stole money to start UTM. Kuba ndikuba basi alipo samaba??? tisamanamizane. All this kulubwalubwa MCP wants power to do the same. Just like the Kamuzu and John Tembo family got rich
Joyce Banda sanabe anangoti ndiulula mbava zinamuukila , in tonsse alliance akubamo chani
Joyce Banda ordered the inquiry then it was found she had no part BUT DPP had been looting for years. President APM refuses to investigate his brother nor has Bingu’s estate repaid the Billions he stole.
VOTE THIS PRESIDENT OUT come June something
Malawi is a JOKE ! Vote vote vote !!
