These people are encroaching land deep in the CBD and the LCC is idly watching……. If they are obtaining an injunction you should also obtain an injunction restraining them from continuing building. Come on. You gave these people liberty to choose a piece of land wherever because of how toothless you dealt with the Malangalanga encroachers. For once show that nobody is above the law……demolition all those structures in front of Bwaila Hospital. And find out whosoever gave permission for them to start building there. Where are city planners? What job are they doing? Incompetent zombies getting salaries every monthend… Read more »
With this kind of behavior and mentality Malawi cities will always be the most backward cities in the SADC region. The city council should simply carry out its mandate. Demolish such structures and give no compastion. When you go against the law you get punished.
Which law of our land supports this kind of behaviour. The city council should simply carry out its mandate in order to have a city that is of international standards failing which, Malawi cities are all going to be slam cities. Take a look at other cities in Africa . Very nicely constructed , because plans and are regulations are strictly followed. No substandard structures are allowed to be constructed.

Take for instance the area between Lilongwe Community Centre Ground – Lilongwe ADMARC and Lilongwe River Bridge. The area is now congested with residential houses and unimposing buildings. Some have even encroached on Bwaila Hospital. It seems that planning and planners are the villain and are responsible for accelerating such congestions. Currently it is hard to distinguish a residential from a business zone. The area has not been professionally re–zoned for a particular purpose. The situation is made worse with… Read more »
Oh I didnt know that I can erect a building anywhere I want and then rush to courts to protect it. Im building mine at City Centre next to Lizevu.
Malawi should not condone lawlessness. It will be catastrophic to reverse these trends in future. Demolish the structures. All of them. Democracy and the rule of law should be fairly tested and tried. Lawlessness has no place anywhere. Freedoms must be jealously guarded.
