Phiri is not a cewa.. It’s Ngoni or Zulu name. These pipo came from South Africa. Go to KZN, they are so many. Banda is pure Cewa. Read and know yo history.

Shame,just because the name is also found in KZN then it means its from there NO they may be of different meaning,e.g in tswana phiri means ‘hyena’ but talking of Malawian,Mozambican,zambian history they were called mountain clan,i ask you to read again or somebody fooled you.

Chewa people are comprised of two main clans PHIRI and BANDA clans,Phiri’s were rulers of the chewa people,so all people with phiri surnames has roots from Chewa people, its shallow to think that all people from kasungu north are Tumbukas,infact the majority are Chewas..its a shame just because he is a Proff then he is tumbuka,he is wise he knows his history…i ask you to read your history books Mr.proud Tumbuka,eetu ndi mmene timachitiratu achewafe timadziwa history yathu,language yathu ndi culture yathu osati zamakoro ena kumangokhuta mowa ati culture yathu,culture is more than drinking phele,its also about names,languages,food,dressing and many… Read more »

Kanyama Phiri a Chewa? Mmmmmm……? I know we have some Ngonis in Thyolo Bvumbwe, they don’t claim to be Lhomwes despite being in the Lhomwe territory. Is Kanyama Phiri a Chewa because he comes from Kasungu North? Last time I checked, Kanyama Phiri was my fellow Tumbuka. Some tumbukas don’t feel good to be known as Tumbukas. Why? I am proudly Tumbuka. Never asked to be one. It just happened….and I am proud of that.

Kulamba(Chewa, no party colours at the function), umthetho(Nguni,no party colours) these are true traditional groupings, on the other hand
Mulhakho(lhomwes) full of ddp attires even ddp rallies u find full of mlakho wa lhomwe gears this means mulhakho is dpp members vice versa

I find the whole CHEFO concept to be absurd, why should a certain section of people in Malawi, pay homage, or allegiance to some chief, in another country? Colonial mentality. Mudzalanditsa dziko. Someone misled the Chewas of Malawi on this. Dzuka m’Chewa dzuka!
