  1. May HSRIP. Ife tikusowa mzeru paimfa iyi. Bambo Mtumiki tidzakukumbukani nthawi yonse yamoyo wathu. Amen

  2. He had many talents. He was an excellent teacher, very simple life style. At least he taught me. Nobody, I repeat, nobody is perfect before God. We are all journeying towards heaven, we may stumble a long the way but God loves the efforts we make to follow him, ‘humanum est erare’ RIP

  3. RIP Fr.Masauko. For those on the accusing side, know that he was a human being like you besides being a priest.

  4. Brave and patriotic priest gone. Fought hard to stop Bakili from standing for a 3rd term. He also coined ” chajira” big fish. An amazing Catholic priest and preacher

  5. I remember him at Kwacha park. He is the one who coined the saying “akuikani sikono mkamwa” when talking about people who were supporting Bakili for a 3rd term. Very able public-speaker. It comes out vividly,with Billy Kaunda singing “aGalatiya.” You made us laugh,Father. May You Rest In Peace.

  6. i will remember him as an activist who did not wantMalawians to be taken for granted by greedy leaders like Muluzi who did not want to step down after his two terms of office expired and wanted third term.Ansembe Olimba mtima mukuthatu!!mayo oooo .enawa ndi ma yes bwana. MHSRIP

  7. This is very sad, I have no words. May your soul rest in peace Father. You touched many lives….May the name of God be blessed.

  8. Anayamba kale kudwala uyu.koma amabisa.azimayi onse mumawanyengera mchalichi aja adali adali abwino bwino??kothera kwake kuzikhala ku mwayi wathu komweko.
