  2. Four years is not enough for theft of Government Money k650,000 when ment to support a school. People are sent to prison for much less like theft of a goat. You should have been forced to pay back the money plus 4 years prison. Good luck on your appeal spending millions on your lawyer.

  3. This is small fry. We need big fish !! The tractorgate, maizegate, landgate, list is long. Get these guys in and then we’ll know change is here. Still, good start.

  5. If HRDC is honest, they should bring forward names of MPS who abused CDF. I am told MCP has plenty of them.

  6. Mzomera is raising hands as if he is a freedom fighter or a prisoner of conscience. Shut up and go to hell.

  9. And one wonders how DPP used to choose his leaders. Did they have fraudsters and thieves as a criteria for their leaders or what exactly? How could one a Mzomera, a pastor as DPP leader and yet a thief? And yet we still have many who have bee arrested juts associated with some kind of nasty clandestine deals why on earth! Go ye well, and welcome to the world of the condemned here you will see what the world has to offer. Happy that when you are out you will become a good advisor to others and please pray for Mussa

  11. It’s a New Day! its a New Malawi, thank God I have lived to see this…….. all politicians beware!!……. one down, next case ndi uja anaba galimoto ya PP, then after that mlandu wa inciting violence…… shaaaaaaaaaaa1

  12. And the other one for violence, we will also come to court while you are in already, yes life is something else akere?

  13. K250000 of mzomera ngwira is equal to four years. 5billion of Chisale will be equal to how many? Then comes 5 million of Chinjani Magolo Baisokolo.ooooh! I forgot that of Mpinganjira, Jomo then comes Dausi atlast.

  14. I’m a constituent of Mzimba Hora. In other circumstances, I’d have said the conviction of Mzomera Ngwira is politically motivated, but in these circumstances I am strangely glad that he has been thrown in the cooler. This is pure theft. It’s a well-documented fact that we Northerners love education ( no apologies on this); and to think that one of our own political leaders stole funds meant for a resource that makes us advance in society is incomprehensible. This is good bye to your political career, Rev Ngwira. Sad thing is: you won’t even be welcomed back as a clergyman. Who would want to have a convicted thief as one’s pastor?

    1. There’s an old saying: ‘Better the devil you know than the devil you don’t.’ At least we know that this guy’s a thief. What about all the dishonest pastors who are not even charged, never mind convicted – wolves dressed as shepherds.

    1. Don’t waste your energy Chisale will be tried on other offences not the one involving Indians. Chimwendo Banda, Nkaka and Mia Alresdy collected billions from these Indians to protect them..Mark my words, no Indian will be tried. The issue of cement involves mbilizi whose brother Lodzani used to loan Mia Money and even Faizal lent Mia a lot of money and there is no way he will be tried.
