Kaliati: Government will prosecute any parent or guardian

The warning was issued on Tuesday by Minister of Gender, Children, Disability and Social Welfare Patricia Kaliati when she visited beneficiaries of Social Cash Transfer Scheme in Chitipa East Constituency.

Kaliati expressed concern that some parents who are ashamed of their disabled children ill-treat them.

Said Kaliati: “We are aware that some parents with physically challenged children are discriminating them. We warn you to stop mistreating the children”

Beside denying them education, some parents in Chitipa go an extra mile to lock up their disabled children when they want to go for other social assignments.

But Kaliati warned that government will prosecute any parent or guardian found beating or chaining the children to the pole and denying them access to education.

She , however, expressed happiness that Chitipa District Council gives priority to people with disabilities when distributing resources under safety nets programmes.

District community services officer for Chitipa Haji Mvula said currently, out of 37 651 beneficiary households, 1 160 are households headed by physically challenged people.

Chief Mwenemisuku and member of Parliament for Chitipa East, Chizamsoka Mulwafu commended government for implementing programmes that promote the welfare of people of the district.

  1. Proverbs 22:14
    The mouth of an evil woman is a deep pit the one denounced by YAH falls in there.

    1 John 3:8
    The one doing sin (breaking the torah) is of the devil. The devil have sinned from the beginning for this purpose the son of YAH was manifested to destroy the works of the devil.

    Be on guard it a evil spiirit behind this woman jezebel. Look into her eyes you dealing with a destroyer and Satan have authority over their minds. These things are ruthless her goal is to make man sin. She hares righteousness and man. Her mouth drips honey and it is smoother than oil but in the end she is bitter as wormwood. Her goal is to wipe The knowledge of YAH from off the earth and promote wickedness. She hares being under the authority of a men, you dealing with a mad, sadistic perverted beast and she will not stop until it is destroyed. It is not womans right they are promoting. Jezibel rights, and they used the savage beast to lay waste to spread lawlessness. One of her main characteristics she is an adulteress (married woman seeking sex from other man besides her husband) be on guard she hunts for her victims.

  9. This woman needs to go for beauty lessons, just look at her face, two necklaces, her breached skin and ten rings on her figures. She looks too ugly she thinks that’s beauty, madam this is too much. Tamaphunzitsikani mai Kaliati Esh! !!!! Sidzikhara la bwino.

  11. She should stop discriminating against dark skin people because she is starting to become a mwenye!!!

  12. are these beneficiaries correctly described as those that are ‘physically challenged’. I bet what you mean is ‘persons with disabilities’, e.g the physically challenged (olumala ziwalo), deaf, blind, albinos, cerebral palsy etc. Please journos, don’t confuse “the physically challenged” to be persons with disabilities in general. Social cash transfer targets the ultra poor, including persons with disabilities.

  13. Discrimination is a disease. Mayi Kaliati, this is how other tribes feel when APM discriminates them.
