Kaliati sticks to her story as Mulhako wa Alhomwe starts vigil at her house: Performing rituals

July 31, 2018 Green Muheya -Nyasa Times 76 Comments

Mulanje West legislator Patricia Kaliati has said she  will not be stampeded by the Mulhako wa Alhomwe members who  on Monday started holding a vigil at her Nkando residence, saying she sticks to her story said at a rally during the official launch of United Transformation Movement (UTM) which is led by Vice-President Saulos Chilima.

Mulhako wa Alhomwe, a cultural ethnic group which is now deeply involved in politics by aligning to ruling Democratic Progressive Party (DPP), is demanding Kaliati, who is former DPP director of women and now the acting secretary general of UTM, to apologise for allegedly disrespecting Lhomwe Paramount Chief  Ngolongoliwa.

Kaliati is maintaining that  Mwene wa Mwamwene Ngolongoliwa  and Mulhako wa Alhomwe chairperson Leston Mulli  were the architects in the formation of the movement.

“Whatever I said is true and I maintain it,” Kaliati said.

She condemned  Mulhako leadership to be using its members to be “threatening one another  or even interfering with someone’s private life.”

Kaliati said the vigil at her Nkando house  is “trespassing.”

Mulhakho wa Alomwe director Muchanakhwaye Mpaluka said they will continue a vigil at Kaliati’s residence  including offering sacrifices to appease their ‘gods’  until the legislator apologises.

The group demanded an apology from Kaliati for skipping the title ‘Paramount’ when she referred to the chief in her political rally address.

Ngolongoliwa said he has never been involved in the formation of any political movement, not even UTM, stressing that doing so would be playing outside his jurisdiction as a traditional leader.

“It is coming as a surprise when some people stand on political podiums to claim that I was part of the formation of UTM,” said  Ngolongoliwa when he addressed 183 traditional leaders at Namphungo, Traditional Authority (T/A) Juma in Mulanje last week  Thursday flanked by T/A Chikumbu of Mulanje.

When the Paramount Chief was asked if he ever attended any meeting together with Kaliati and Noel Masangwi, he said the meetings he and the two were present had different agendas, which were not political.

Chief Ngolongoliwa said: “We are basically children from the same family as Lhomwes. I have ever summoned meetings which had agendas mainly reflecting on my role as a traditional leader and the two have ever been present together with other people.”

Kaliati laughed off Ngolongoliwa’s comments and insisted that what she said is absolutely true.

  1. This is a classic example of why we need development and jobs! If these people had jobs and development programs they would not have time for these ancient rituals in the 21st century

  2. More sympathetic votes for SKC🔥🔥🔥🔥…….whoever is the strategist for DPP needs to be fired immediately

  4. Kaliati in the HOT seat. Let her lose her constituency that’s when she will know that kutukwana sikwabwino.

  5. Didn’t Ngolongoliwa and Multi, on behalf of DPP, organise a meeting at Sanjika to discipline Kaliati and others on the issue of the SKC Movement? How then can the Paramount Chief now say he does not get involved in politics?

    Sacrifice at Kaliati residence? Is it any wonder we have bizarre stories in Mulanje about Blood Suckers. Idiots these Lhomwes. Still living a dark ages life.

    I have always maintained that rather than promoting Cultural Activities, the Mulakho is nothing else but a forum for planning thievery led by its Prince of thieves. If you want proof, check what happened to the 3m litres of diesel at ESCOM and how the Agreko generators were procured. Were Yaos, Tumbukas, Chewas, Tonga’s etc involved? Never.

  8. All along I have been lacking evidence to confirm what I have always thought about this tribe, but now I have it.

  9. This is sad, who has let this dogs out??? They can do this because it is a “Royal” tribe where the president belongs and they can manage to do this. Did they get permission to do this?

  10. Our country has indeed gone to the dogs!

    Is this happening in the present day and age? Is DPP this desperate?

  11. This is pure stupidity. Very foolish. Human rights activists, please sue this organisation on behalf of Kaliati. This nonsense must be eradicated from our country.

    Imagine this appearing on the international press. What impact would such stories have on our dignity, our tourism potential and foreign investment.

    This must stop immediately. And Mutharika – enough is enough!

  13. Where is the President and all Mlakho leaders??? where is the police? does the silence mean you are entertaining this?? You just lost my vote! ………….Im going for UTM

  14. This can easily be stopped, APM can just pick up a phone and stop this maddness!!! that is what is expected from a mature statesman, this is so old, so ancient, so retrogressive, it has no place in the 21st century!!!!!! you are just giving SKC a lot of sympathetic votes!!!

  15. I had not yet made up my mind as to who to vote for next year, but after after seeing this mid-evil behavior by these Mlakho people I will definately vote for UTM

  17. Kaliati should learn a BIG lesson. She needs to stop mabodza, mwano and kunyoza. We are tired of this woman who believes in politics of kutukwana.

    1. anatukwana ndani? Ndipo anati chani? Who made vigil when Kaliati was called names. ?

  18. Join the discussion…Kkkkkkkkkkkkk angokhuta mang’ina anthuwa taonani mimbazo, apumbwa ndi ngolongoliwa waoyo. kupanda kutchula kuti paramount ndi mulandu? inu anthu akwa nkando muwathamangitse apumbwa amenewa kumpanda kwa kweniko. iwe ngolongoliwa tikupangila ma plan ndiwe opusa kwambiri, sukudziwa kuti ukufuna kuyambitsa nkhondo?? alhomwe nokhanokha mwatani? chitsilu cha paramount ngolongoliwa kukamwa kwakowamva? akweni osapepesa apumbwa amenewa akamaliza kubwila ufa akuwazawo apitakwao.

  20. THE LHOMWES WHO ARE CAMPING AT KALIATI’S HOUSE ARE ALLEDGED TO BE INVLOVED IN THE RECENT SPATE OF BLOOD-SUCKING MASQUERADING AS IF THEY ARE HOLDING A VIGIL. THEY GO ABOUT BLOOD-SUCKING AT NIGHT.

    KOMA ABALE!!!!!

    1. pliz leave this issue of blood sacking alone out of politics. this is sensitive issue. let us be civilised when bebating political issues

  21. Koma a Hlomwe pa za zikhulupiliro za mankhwala nde sadzathekaaaaaaaaaaaaa!! Nde zomwe akuwazazo akutanthauza chani? To me I take it as you want Akweni kuti a duweeeeeeeee period?

    Certainly this is witchcraft at its best being held under the direction of some tribal leaders? Shame on Ngolongoliwa and Hlomwes!! Can we be wrong then if we are to say that the blood sackers and albino killings happened through the same ……………………………………………………………….? My foot!

    To APM what message is this sending to the nation? Is it right to hold vigils at peoples’ houses when they are alleged to have committed a tribal sin? This is setting very bad precedence!! Chonsecho president yemwe tili naye ndi mu Hlomwe komanso lawyer…………!! Apa nde a Malawi tinanyikaaaaaaaaaaaaaa heavyyyyyyyyyyyyy!!

  22. Woooooo! I am a Lhomwe myself with my father originally from Muloza and my Mother in Mapereka (Mabuka TA). What am seeing here is trespassing as well as witchcraft. No wonder blood sucking stories are originating fro mmy home District and by my fellow tribesmen, the President being a Lhomwe and the Paramount Chief being a Lhomwe should not allow rituals like these on ones compound. Shame ana a kwathu.

  23. DPP strategist strategies. This is cheap propaganda. DPP hiding behind. Akweni is BIG. She is a BULLDOZER hence all this. That seat is secure. The well wishers sponsoring the hatred should find something to do with their time and money. Why not go and volunteer at the Hospital. Why not go and cheer the sick and give them the food.
    Stop following these politicians who do not want you to learn how to fish. This mind set is what is killing Malawi and feeding corruption. Open your eyes and say no to this manipulative tactics.

    We are all capable of standing on our own. The wealth you see in them is our taxes. Your taxes.

    Wise up. Open your eyes then be attentive.Listen. Chosamva anachiphikira mmasamba.

  24. Law enforcement people should intervene in this matter without delay. Akweni is Malawian and all of us are Malawians. That’s trespassing.

    If Malawians decided to start holding vigil at the state house what will the police do?
    We have been wronged as a Nation. We have been cheated for a long time. Please if we start holding vigil peacefully please law enforcement team do not conderm us.

  25. It has always been a case of Kaliati opening her big and dirty mouth abusing other people. She did so all the time she was a minister in government. It sounds OK that now she should be taught how to speak by her clan.

  26. Kaliati deserves this because of her loud-mouth. She needs to learn to mind what she speaks. She has done this for a long time.

  27. Kweni.. dont be disturbed with these uncultured members of the Lhomwe belt. Amalawi ufiti wake umeneu tiyeni tikalembetse mukaundula wa mavoti basi, tithane nao ambava amenewa iisa. Ndipo Kaliati Sapepesa apa atapepese ndi mfumu ya afitiyo

  28. Ngongoliwa ndi mfumu yochenjera ngati kalulu. Ine sindikukaika zomwe ananena Kaliati. Can the whole Kaliati allege something against the TA? Akweni cannot and has never done that.

  29. Patricia, go to the court to get an injunction to stop these thugs and killers from holding a vigil at your property. You are fighting for a proper and good cause and nobody should stop you by intimidating you.

  30. Ubulutu ndiye umenewu.kukhulupilira za ufiti basi,kudana ndi chilungamo munthu wanena basi mumafune asanene zoona.zimenezo ndiye za upumbwazo!!.Za ziiiiiii.

  31. OUR LEADERS IN THIS CULTURAL GROUPING ARE USING THE GROUPING FOR WRONG REASONS,IN FACT WE ARE FIGHTING DPP”s WAR.WHY USE MULALHO FOR DPP?ZAMANYAZITU IZI,OSAWASIYA A NGONGOLIWA NDI MULLION AYANKHE OKHA BWANJI?WE ARE A USEFUL GROUP BUT THIS ISN’T OUR WAR

  32. Tikamati amalawi mumachedwa ndi zaufiti ndiizi zamanyazi ndithu amalawi anthu awa mukawasakhanso basi mukhalaso muwidanesi kwa zaka zambiri ngati nthawi ya Mose..

  33. Failing to tolarate felows Lomwe come guys who advised to take this course mmmmm wakunamzani. Thats a simple issues that could been resolved amiicably without going on air. And this Idiot Mpaluk mmmmmmmm needs to be examined at mental n Zomba trating her as if she is not Lomwe. Munamunyoza pa misakhano yanu sanakubwezereni.

  34. Why are you disgracing my beloved culture am really disappointed,some times l blame my self why l was born LHOMWE .I dont think Bingu amkafuna gululi kuti lizizapanga nyansi ngati izi kodi inu Angolongoliwa simungadzudzule zimzenzezi?

  35. No WEAPON FORMED AGAINST KALIATI WILL SUCCEED. I UNLEASH 2ND CORITH 10V3-6
    I PRAY THAT THE FAMILY OF KALIATI WILL BE ABLE TO STAND IN THE TIMES OF TRIAL AND TEMPTATIONS THAT THEY MAY BE ABLE TO STAND AGAINST THE SCHEMES OF THE DEVIL EPHESIANS 6V12-20. 1stSAMUEL17V43-53 MULHAKHO WILL USE THEIR WITCHCRAFT, MAGIC, MASILAMUSI BUT WE STAND WITH KALIATI USING THE NAME OFTHE LORD OF ISRAEL AND HIS ARMIES, THIS DAY THE LORD WILL DELIVER THE FAMILY OF KALIATI AND MALAWI FROM EVIL RULERS. GOD WILL DEMOLISH DPP TODAY AND IT WILL COME TO PASS NEXT YEAR IN MAY.

  36. I thought APM should have told fellow Lomwes to get out of kaliati’s house immediately. This is illegal and infringing on her rights to privacy. What is happening is total madness and that is why they have started claiming of blood suckers again because this tribe is full of illiterate people who believe in such rituals and witchcraft.

    How I wish Kaliati had her own military, she should have beaten all of them and prosecute them to court for climinal trespass. However Kaliati must rush to ciurt and get an order for the mbuli zonse to leave her hiuse. Any violation of the order will be arrested for contempt of ciurt order . Period

  39. That is to invoke evil spirits, cursing, the innocent woman who is practising her political right. That culture group is nothing but DPP political advancement machine. But very sad using sham , cursing to inflict pain to their opponents

  40. mmmmmmm koma zomapanga zaka zinonso izi, anthudi alibe zochita ku malawi ndiithu
    Tingodikira SCK next year azapange create employment mwina uchitsiru ngati ungazachepe

  47. Kaliati cool asiye azigona panjapo, zikatopapo zichoka zokha, zianthu zopanda manyazi ngati chi president chawo chi pitala ndi chi ngolongoliwa cho, nonsense

  48. Very old type of life and primitive for that matter.No wonder they are so many ritual killings of albinos in these Lhomwe districts

  49. Rituals? Please stop this primitive behaviour. It explains why you guys believe in blood suckers etc. Stop this nonsense mukumunyadzisa atsogoleri anu

  50. Malawi and particularly Lhomwes need to wake up from their cultural slumber and embrace the current wave of societal changes. We are no longer in tribal Malawi of the 20th century. The world is now waking up to the fact that we are one people and that Malawians inhabit Malawi. Practising narrow tribal agendas and antiquated rituals is backward thinking and has no place in the Malawi of today. Why would Lhomwes thennharass their own daughter. Why doesn’t the paramount chief just talk to Akweni in private like elders to each other even just calling her to have a chat. These things can be resolved over a cup of tea if the chief acts an elder.

  51. Chipani cha alhomwe…Ndiye ena adzayankha mulandu wa trespassing after chisankho cha next year..Amfunse anzawo kuzimbabwe mmene akuvera kuwawa pano after kumuchosa Mugabe.

  53. I am pure Lomwe by tribe but I don’t subscribe to what is happening at Hon. Kaliyati’s residence at Nkando.

    This is archaic and bullshit.

    Please respect the larger picture of the lomwe tribe. The lomwe tribe does not start and end at Mulakho.

  54. Dunderheads with nothing to offer. Go and do some work you MBUZI. Where is their leader to condemn this behavior? Where are the police to arrest these thick people for trespass? Oh cry my Malawi.
    Chilima, please win and bring sanity to the country.

  55. DON’T TAKE THESE ISSUES SIMPLE MADAM KALIATI …AFRICAN POLITICS SAME LIKE MALAWI POLITICS FOLLOWS AN ETHNIC LINE .. VOTING PATTERN IN MALAWI FOLLOWS AN ETHNIC PATTERN, YOUR SO CALLED MOVEMENT WILL NOT SURVIVE THE BALLOT BOX..

  56. Ndazikila kuti mulhomwe ndi chitsilu, we have so many tribes in Malawi, koma mulhomwe haka bisala ku seri kwa president. We will kick your president nxt year, Malawi shall for all tribes nxt year… A malawi always remember Rwanda in 2004 it was tribes, let’s be careful

  59. TIKAMANENA KUTI AWA SIANTHU KOMA ZITHUMWA ZOCHOKERA KWA SATANA KUONONGA DZIKO. MWADZIONERA NOKHA. HOW CAN A CHIEF OF HIS INTELLECT ALLOW HIS SUBJECTS TO PERFORM RITUALS AT SOMEONE’S COMPOUND? THIS IS BREACH OF PEACE. WORSE ENOUGH, THE PRESIDENT, A LHOMWE BY DESCENT, PAYS A DEAF EAR WITHOUT CEASING FIRE. HE IS ALSO BEHIND THE RITUALS AS WELL. WE DO NOT WANT A REPUBLICAN PRESIDENT WHO CONDONES WITCHCRAFT IN MALAWI.

    1. Hetherwick, i have been following your comments, i think you are the most stupid above all. Everything negative activity that’s happening, you point your claim at the state president like really! are you that passive, when will people learn to fix their own issues without mentioning the president? Look dude get a life and stop politicizing everything that runs onto your weak brain.

      2. @ pathfinder
        Your president is so cheap. No sane president would tolerate this stupidity that the so called mhlankho guys are doing at kaliati ‘s place . What kind of president is this guy you call president . Please don’t waste our time with this inept guy .

  62. Kkkkkkk. If don’t say “Paramount” is crime in Lhomwe they perform rituals and curse

    1. Osapanga mankhwala oti magetsi asamzime bwanji!!!!!!!!!!!!!! mbuzi zimenezi!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    2. Palibe chiona ine apa angofuna matama basi mwachidule Mchacha waachita sponsor anthu awa zoona munthu oganiza kusiya ntchito zako zoti uzikagwira ntchito zako zotukula banja lako ukukakhala bhize ndi zazii ndipindulapo chani apa fotseki zanu apa mwaonetsa ubulutu alomwe apa ndithu agulukunyinda
