Chilima tells Mulli ‘pay back the money’ to Malawi government
Vice-President Saulos Chilima has publicly spoken against the K8 billion claim that Sunrise Pharmaceuticals and Chombe Foods Limited – the two companies owened by Leston Mulli – are making from government.
Mulli, through Sunrise Pharmaceuticals Limited and Chombe Foods Limited, sued government and claimed K3.1 billion as damages for losses during the July 20 2011 demonstrations in which 21 people were killed.
He is now seeking an additional K8 billion, in civil case number 474 of 2012 before the High Court in Blantyre.
However, addressing a political rally for his United Transformation Movement (UTM) at Migowi in Phalombe on Saturday which was televised live on Times TV, Zodiak and Mibawa TV,
Chilima said he has gathered evidence that Mulli secretly received K 3 billion from government as compensation while he owes the same government a K5 billion loan through the then Malawi Savings Bank which was never paid.
He said ironically all previous Attonery Generals had rejected the claim for government to pay Mulli the K3 billion compensation as a result of the July 20 demonstrations in 2011.
Chilima said Mulli should “pay back the money” he owes governemnt before it ” chokes” him.
The comments from Chilima comes after Mzuzu-based Youth and Society executive director Charles Kajoloweka reported the K8 billion claim to Speaker of the National Assembly, the Ombudsman, and the Anti-Corruption Bureau (ACB).
YAS argues that the claims and circumstances in which they were/are being handled by the Attorney General and Judiciary raise deep questions.
The civil society organisation argued such questions are on the rule of law, openness, transparency, accountability and good governance, further suspecting that the additional claim is staged to defraud government.
YAS wants ACB and Ombudsman to institute investigations into the claim.
Meanwhile, at Migowi rally, Chilima went on to articulate UTM vision and agenda for Malawi at the rally attended by thousands of people who defied DPP intimidation tactics.
He pleaded with the electorate to register and vote en-masse in next year’s elections, warning that failure to remove the Democratic Progressive Party (DPP) from power spells doom for the country.
UTM, which started as Chilima Movement, has also been working with Wodya Zake Alibe Mlandu political grouping headed by Michael Usi, popularly known as Manganya.

Another great rally, keep up the momentum, you are making great in- roads keep pushing, empower your surrogates to fan out deep into the country side and spread the word………… Nzotheka!!!!! You can do it! Don’t listen to negativity ……….we are behind you!
Chilima kafuse Brown Mpinganjira.Wait campaign has not started we will know you will.From girl friends to enemies
Wrong Parking ?Chilima.We have institution in Malawi We hate dictating behaviour, Those who have been attacked by
mob must seek court address .It is citizens against fellow citizen .Government must pay to protect our businesses.
Chilima don’t fool us please!!. You know each other very well with Mulli. We all know that Mulli is funding UTM – and this is all acting on stage to appear like you are innocent!. You are the benefactors of his cash and we know it – ndiulura. This is why I warn my fellow Malawians to be cautious with this young girl in town – UTM.
Kaliati in a so-called transformation party still has a rotten mouth and dunderhead, e.g. Lake Chilwa is closed to fishing, shatapu zanu alhomwe, salty water in Lake Chilwa not being used for irricgation,when he came back from the USA his trousers was like a sack at the maize mill, etc….chibagera pamwamba.
Should also ask Masangwi to return MRA moneys
Mr VP Chilima, kindly return the salary you’ve been getting without working. It’s our tax-payers money. You are the worst hypocrite.
By demanding Mulli to pay back it means he is working, what type of work do you want to see, cant you K145 Million has ben paid back, thats part of his work as well
Mwayamba kulumana tsopano
Malawi needs every penny it generates from tax collection very poor people. The govt can’t afford to shower money to people who already have more than enough to support their greed. As Malawians, we should be sympathetic to the suffering of our fellow citizens especially the innocent children and vernurable women and men. Politics aside it is not in the best interest for Mulli to take away what belongs to the state and therefore the people of Malawi to advance his business. Just pay back the K5b you owe to MSB……it’s the right thing to do. Please Mulli don’t take advantage of the ignorant people to suit your agenda for God has eyes and can see exactly the evil intentions. Integrity and morality can neither be regulated nor enforced through the courts of law. Malawi has so many educated fools who don’t even know the difference what is right or wrong; the comments below are testimony to the extent of poverty of mind we have in the country. Some of these commentators are highly educated but lack cognitive ability to understand the complex situation we find ourselves in as Malawians. May God bless Malawi. Whilst God is blessing Malawi, we would urge Mr Mulli to find it in your heart to use your brain and hands to help Him above to do His work by lifting His people from abject poverty.
Inu anthu aChilima. Let me first say i agree with the plan and policies that your man has put forward so far. However can you pass on this message to him. And these people threatening him because he’s mention Mulli shame on you! You know the truth about this man.
However, we need assurances thay Malawians will be prioritised osati amwenye. They are getting rich Ife tikuona , if there’s an influx of well supported Malawian owned businesses we can achieve this. Koma knowing the background of SKC and amwenye I’d hate to vote for him and maintain the status quo of Amwenye kutamika as they are doing now.
Ofunika afufuzidwenso there’s a lot of washing money through buying land at ridiculously exorbitant prices
Ayi a Chilima musasalowerere ntchito yakhothi. Aloreni akhothi agwire ntchito yao. Ngati apeze kuti ndiyenera kuti Muli apepesedwe muyenera kuvomereza. Ngati muli ndi umboni woti Muli adabwereka 5 billion ku Malawi Savings Bank ndipo muukutsimikiza kuti adabweze nanu pitani kukhothi komweko. Kambani za ndale pamisonkhano yanuyo. Komanso mukamaliza mfundo zanuzo mudziuwa mtundu wa Malawi kuti ndalama mukupangira kampenizo mwazipeza kuti? Msonkhano umodzi okha mukuononga ndalama pafupifu komanso nthawi zina mukuposa ndalama zokwana 70 million. Musadalowe m’boma 2014 mudalibe ndalama. Umboni oti mudalibe ndalama ndioti nyumba yanu yoyamba mudagula ndi ndalama ya ngogole imene mudabwereka ku NBS Bank. Mwazitenga kuti ndalama bwana? Pomaliza mudziwe kuti Muli ndi ochenjera sabetsa ndalama zimene bambo ake adazipeza movutika chisawawa. Ngati mumaganiza kuti mumudyera mwalemba m’madzi mukafunse malemu Bingu akuuzani..
On Mulli I would agree with Chilima. This is day light robbery. This man Mulli is very greedy and feels he should get everything for himself. If Charles Mhango was wise he should have given this MK3b to relatives of those who died. Again I am told the Nandolo deal that has been annouced is an arrangement to buy off Mullis stocks that have been in his warehouses for the past three years. Admarc has made an arrangement with him to buy off the stocks and retain them in his warehouse and with this arrangement Admarc will also be paying him rentals and no stock will move from his warehouse but papers and cheques will be exchanged.
Komatu iwe Chilima, chomwe chikuombe suuchiona.
Mulli will the money back to government come 2019. This country is personal estate and we sufferring with taxes
Malawi Savings Bank, a once thriving bank for munthu wa kumudzi is truly ‘dead and buried’ courtesy of DPP’s aka Goodall’s sound economic policies.
The number-1 fraudster having defrauded the bank to bankruptcy and oblivion being Mulli et al and the beneficiaries are DPP cronies themselves but BIG LOOSERS are innocent Malawi taxpayers including achikumbe ovutikitsa kumudzi.
SHAME!!!
Chilima,shortly you will be exposed let’s call a spade a spade mwanayu akulowano mkati
Alowe mkati kwambiri-ndi zomwe tikufuna eni dziko
Attaching Muli is just putting a nail in ur coffin koz Muli was there for grassroot people when admarc hardly existed& he is,has been 1 of biggest peoples employer. That network can never forget that&ur talking that shit in phalombe thinking ur making sense..my fwendo thus political suicide!
Chilima, you stop getting free salary.
Chilima’s now getting personal in attacking Mulli, of all people.
The VP should be trading carefully, as now he has very few friends, even to phone and chat with after work.
Mulli is only an MP, and his wealth was inherited from his father who slaved away – kugwira nchito mwa usaveji – right there at Migowi market. Do not throw stones at someone else’s glass windows: if people really wanna get down and dirty, they will reveal the source of Chilima’s campaign money. And the news won’t be pretty.
Mulli may not be the most astute politician in the Lhomwe Belt (and truly, he’s not), but he’s a clever businessman. Unlike many, including the VP, whose hands DID extract big money from CashGate, Mulli never even got close to it. He had no need to: his business dealings kept him busy.
The least we can do is let the man claim, legally, what is owed to him through damage in the infamous riots, for example.
And, in a civilized society, anyone with a serious apposite opinion would just lodge a complaint in the Courts. Rather than making wild statements and speculations, without foundation, just for political “gain”.
Chilima, you have to stop getting carried away in your speeches, and draw boundaries, especially when it comes to accusing competitors of malfeasance.
You may soon get sued of defamation. And can you handle that? Considering how easily you used to cry at Chirunga, over minor tribulations!
Kagweleni uko a Ntengo wa Kesia…Ndinu mbava zokha zokha amene mwaononga dziko lathu chifukwa cha dyera…come 2019 musanza zonse mwabazo…mbuzi zeni zeni inu…just keep qiute.
Kodi a Mtengo kaya wa chani? Mukurankhura chani? Kodi nanu ndinu mbava eti? Why worship somebody on his exorbitantly ill-gotten wealth as if you are a fool. If you don’t know that Muli is a swindler, then that’s your own blindness but as for us we know that he is MUNKHUNGU WAKUFIKAPO and without shame.
Akunama Chilima,akuonetsa 2019 kuti udzadziwe akulu mphwanga
I believe these red clothes with UTM badges will never be seen in government after you win the election next year. Otherwise it is disappointing to see some blue dresses with maize badges at Unga in America. We must grow up and diffentiate political from government events. Change this country bwana. We need one strong person to turn things around. If you are the one bwana, we will support you, so don’t betray us
You are correct Chilima. Mulli must pay back the 5 billion he got Malawi Saving Bank. Kuba kwa poyerayera akupangitsa manyazi mtundu wathu wa a Lohmwe uyu.
Saulos do you remember how you kicked out Country Wide from performing hiring servises because Ralph Kasambara had opened his own car hire.Eventualy the same was offered to Ralphs car hire.Doesnt this amount to corruption?
@Gerry This comment is out of context…You’re a DPP thieving bastard who has destroyed our Malawi coz of your selfish desires…Malawi is looking for someone who can transform it…be it for one term or more…sick and tired of you thieves. This stealing has gotten worse with DPP
