“The other two have been rushed to hospital together with the driver of the vehicle on the convoy. The Vice President was not affected in any way and he is fine,” said Phiri.

Convoy vehicles are given predence to pass, wa VITZ amafuna chani pafupi anatumidwa etc, Wangophweteketsa anthu osalakwa, that’s reckless driving
I am very surprised 🤨 looking at the damaged car. How could a ‘convoy’ accident possibly lead to such a writeoff?
Our thoughts and prayers are with those families affected.
Be careful everyone.
Zeze Arafat Hamdan plz reduce the number of cars on ur convoy. Extravagant showmanship of power must stop. Its causing miseries to a lot of people.
Nyasa, best reporting should have been including cause for the accident, what the locals say as observations, what the state VP says on the incident etc…this report is inconclusive.
Wherever chilima goes, he leaves corpses or bullet wounds on the roads. He is very careless with other people’s lives. Arafat Hamdan is simply too selfish.
Can I ask you question are you a (DPP ) FUN ?.
Thats the MCP we know. Chilima take extra care
It is high time VP Chilima and your boss, for
your presidential motorcades to respect the road traffic laws of our country’s!
Especially when it comes to overspending! You can not drive with a speed of 100 km/h plus through villages or towns ! Our roads, even the highways or M1 are shared and used by animals, children, people with disabilities, elderly , bicycles etc. everything can happen!
A lot of vehicle, taxis , trucks are in bad shape with even worse drivers! Destroying lives of government employees and ordernery citizens plus the huge cost of replacing this expensive modecade vehicle can never justify the few minutes you save to reach your next appointment!
My people we need to pray because the system has been raffled, they hate the resistance to their ways, …..pray with Isaiah 54 verse 17. We can’t afford to tolerate such adhoc occurancies!!! Wake up and pray!!!!
Chilima will be liquidated by MCP.
It’s really time to cut short these silly long presidential/vice-presidential convoys.
Condolences to the families and wishing quick recovery to the ones injured. ❤
Hope the President stops these high speed Governmental convoys with big Landcruisers, motorbikes, etc. that regularly kill innocent pedestrians or other road users.
Malawi cannot afford these extravangant shows of power, and rubs the electorate the wrong way.
So let’s see the servant leadership.

This was an accident. When the President convoy is passing cars are supposed to give way but unfortunately the the driver of toyota Vitz was rude and careless.
It’s sad that due to his carelessness lives have been lost
Quick recovery for the injured
This is the second time within a span of a month that chilima has been involved in fatal car accidents. Kodi convoy ya chilima imayenda bwanji pansewu? Kenako afatu Arafat Hamdan wanuyu. Pajatu MCP idapha Jumani posachedwapa.
Chakwela bloodshed at work. Looking for someone. Let us wait,its a matter of time.
Amalawi anzanga omwe we drive chonde tiyeni tidzichoka or kupeleka mpata on the road tikamva siren,.
Yes that is correct
Wish them well, but anyamata inu mubweze moto mukuthamanga kwambiri you will focus in your governance zinazi u r reaping pankhanza zomwe mwachitira APM in this country!
Pali mtengo wina wake panjira yaku tambani mbali yaku mwanza. Umaoneka monga ndi mtengo koma ndi mboni ya mzimu wa gadama matenje and azawo. Sizodabwitsa VP akati ayende, mwatchola
Convoy driving requires experience and not amatuers
No weapon fashioned against you Chilima will prosper. We thank God you are safe and praying for the injured crew for quick and full recovery.
Praying for everyone involved in this predicament
Napepe
Anthu olankhulila kotulukila bibi
Simutha kungoti ngozi
Ndintunda wake womwewu zinamuchitikila Chilima pakampeni
Obibila kukamwa anati ndi Bakili
Lelonso museteleni Bakili yemweyo
KUMBUTSANANI KUTI PAJA BAKILI
There is a high suspicion that these big fast cars overspend on the roads of malawi and they occupy centre of lane therefore on bends they can be a hazard..I suspect nobody is allowed to drive above the speed limits. The cause of accidents is speech is u drive a car at a safe speed u will be able to make judgement and apply precautionary maneuvers to evade the accident
It’s just a matter of time. MCP will get rid of Chilima.
It is you who has problem with Chilima cadet.
Cadet how much did they pay you
Very True Dear that what MCP is all about Killing People
Stop cheating and misleading Malawians. This was just an accident. When the President convoy is passing cars are supposed to stop and give way but unfortunately the driver of the Toyota vitz did not not stop.
Pray for covid not hurt fight insult each other this is the only time we have on earth why no wish one another well .Thank God eat and sleeep…be humble..laugh together..we have more problems to worry za chamba comments …must stop…contribute peace not create a War ..satan weapon. Tongue
Zeze MUST slow down. Rome is still being built. TODAY.
Ops Mbuyanu uja wopanda manu is gone so stop making noise
You are very correct. Chilima must slow down. He needs to rest. Earning cheap praises of being a workaholic will cost him his health. He can’t be everywhere where duty calls. He should learn to delegate. Public sector is so vast that it requires apportionment of responsibilities. It’s not a one man show. Chilima or no Chilima the public service will not stop to function. Let him take care of his own health. There were people like late Aleke Banda who would work from dawn to dusk. How were they rewarded?
Akunama Chilima keep on working hard, that’s why we voted for you and Chakwera. Work hard to bring this country back on its feet. Don’t listen to these lazy cadets, kuzolowela kuba basi.
The Vice President is safe and sound and was not involved in the accident at all……it was only the last vehicle which was far behind and was speeding to catch up with the convoy almost half a mile to a mile ahead.
Wishing everyone hurt a very quick recovery……
Mcp want to get rid of him. Zayambika. This wasn’t an accident. Akufuna kumupha
Stupid, primitive thinking Bakali! You should be feeling sorry for the injured and for those who have lost their loved ones in the accident instead of barking like a rabid dog. Shame on you!!!!
Soon you will see Message and Comments RIP Chakwera and Chilima
Foseki
You don’t know what you are saying mbuzi
Mmmmmmm you demon STOP this no sense a aMalawi always negative .Rasta positive
Chifukwa choti anakulephelani kwanu Kwa Kapoloma,mwati muyikemo MCP? These 2 C’s akukupsetsani mtima eti? Chakwera and Chilima are leaders in the Republic of Malawi like it or not!
Praying for Chilima and the crew!
I decree no weapon created against Chilima shall prosper, wherever it is , in the air, in the earth, under the earth in Jesus name …Amen. Those who can pray should continue praying because the system is not happy to find resistance to accomplish their enterprise ooh!!!!!!!!
