Malawian President Peter Mutharika Tuesday appointed Lexten Kachama as new Police Inspector General following the resignation of Paul Kanyama Friday on health grounds.

Kachama was Deputy Inspector General of Malawi Police Service before his appointment.
His nomination will be presented to the 193-seat National Assembly for approval.

Kachama is professionally a good cop. But check on how he has acquired wealth. He is questionably too rich for his position. He owns a number of trucks, farms, houses and mini-buses. Four years ago he imported between 4 and 6 mini-buses at once.
Are these guys investigated before being appointed?
ABINO GONE WITH THE LITTLE GIRL AH !! MWANA WOPANDA MANTHA UYU THIS IS YOUR GRAND GRAND FATHER NO MANYAZI, MALINGA IMALOWA NAKWANA
Kachama is an automatic choice for the position of Inspector General, no need to attend PAC of Parliament interviews, just confirm him the gentleman is,very much fitting for the post.
Apa a pulezidenti ndiye simukukondera ndithu. Just imagine after the parly rejected that Dedza guy( Kanyama ), you have gone further to Kasungu, another central region district for this Kachama fellow! If this guy can be rejected again of which I am 100% doubtful, just pick mwana wa pa Chiradzulu uyu Wiison Matinga. After all he is now no.3 in police hierarchy. Nthawi yoti ma galajuweti adyerereno yafika!!!!! Kikikikikiki!!!!!!
If the parliament will not confirm you as an IG, I will personally single handedly confirm you! I have dealt with so many police officers in my life, but I had never come across one like this guy, Kachama. He is a down to earth guy with a vision. He respects everyone in regardless of size, age, status and where he/ she is coming from. Another guy is Mr Chambakata now based at police HQS. He treats people with respect as if he is a junior, yet he is a regional traffic officer( centre). Anthu inu, pitilizani makhalidwe anu abwinowo… Read more »
Congratulations are in order to this respected Police Officer who has served his country with dedication. And I wish Mr Kanyama all the best as he retire for the second time. True sons of Malawi.
Koma maina amenewa nanenso ndasintha dzina ndikhala kasoma.

Congrats Bwana Kachama and Bwana President is right in appointing you. You are a capable man. Continue being humble but be tough on the criminals. Strengthen prevention of criminal acts as a priority and may Allah grant you guidance as you serve mother Malawi in your new capacity.
