Chidanti Malunga now Tobacco Commission CEO

Tobacco regulators, the Tobacco Commission has hired former UTM publicity secretary Joseph Chidanti-Malunga as the new Chief Executive Officer (CEO).

Chidanti Malunga: CEO at Tobacco Commission

Malunga an irrigation engineer who was a lecturer at Lilongwe University for Natural Resources before joining politics, has confirmed the appointment.

Chidanti Malunga was UTM Party spokesperson from its formation until some months ago when he announced that he was returning back to teaching at the Lilongwe University of Agriculture and Natural Resources.

He claimed to have been on sabbatical leave to fulfill his political interests but the leave days elapsed.

Malunga replaces Kayisi Sadala who was sent on forced leave to enjoy his accumulated leave days prior to the expiry of his contract.

Tobacco Commission officials are refuting claims that Malunga’s appointment is political, saying he underwent normal interviews.

Not a fan of the Alliance but this is good politics from Chakwera. These are the people who worked hard for Alliance victory. Keep him happy and not out there angry, considering DPP is rebuilding.

Abe ndalama tsopano. Tonse alliance of thieves. What has Chidanti ever shown, that qualifies him to be CEO anywhere? Even of public toilets association. Let along the countries main forex earner? This Chakwera guy is stupid and useless, clueless beyond belief. Bolanso old man muntharika. This is a non starter. Tinabetsa vote
