Killing gays in Malawi will be tolerated, fears UN

International civil service, the United Nations says it is concerned with Malawi government decision to withdrawal a case against People’s Party  (PP) publicist Ken Msonda who was charged with an offence of inciting people to kill gays.

DPP Mary Kachale: Discontinued Msonda’s case for inciting to kill gays in Malawi

In a statement which has been released and signed by the Spokesperson for the UN High Commissioner for Human Rights,Rupert Colville, says the discontinuance of the case sends a bad message to the society that killing gays is legal in Malawi.

Msonda was  charged under section 124(1)(b) of the Penal Code, which makes it a criminal offence to incite others to break the law after a criminal case was initiated by two civil society organizations Centre for Develop to People (Cedep) and Centre for Human Rights and Rehabilitation ( CHRR).

Director of public prosecutions Mary Kachale said she would not reveal reasons for the discontinuance of the case until she faces the Legal Affairs Committee of parliament on Tuesday.

On his Facebook wall, Msonda said it was God who fought his legal battle but is unrepetentant over his remarks and shows no remorse. 7

Timothy Mtambo, executive director of Centre for Human Rights and Rehabilitation, one of the people who sued Msonda said he was disappointed with the move by the state to discontinue the case.

“We wanted the courts to interpret Mr Msonda’s remarks. With the discontinuance of the case, people might think it is legal to kill gays. Right to life must be respected as enshrined in the Constitution. What Mr Msonda is saying has no basis even in the Biblical world,” Mtambo said.

He said it is high time the government condemned the remarks by Msonda.

Religious people, including the biggest church in Malawi, the Catholic church have asked President Peter Mutharika not to legalise homosexuality.

The UN further says  Malawi has a responsibility, enshrined in international human rights law, to protect all individuals from hatred and violence based on their sexual orientation and gender identity, and to hold to account anyone who either engages in such violence or incites others to do so. 7

And they have since urged the Government to meet its responsibilities in this regard and protect all individuals from hatred and violence based on their sexual orientation and gender identity.

  1. “The world is watching you”. Bill. What Malawi should be worried of and fear is, ‘” God is watching you.” Let me remind you or give you knowledge if you you have not heard, heard by the word of God.

    There were once two cities as per written word of God in the Bible. These cities were called Sodom and Gomola. There were very famous cities for homosexial business, am sure the world then was watching them with very big interest judging from the way the cities were growing economically and SOCIALLY. The world was watching and saw nothing wrong with homosexcial.

    Suddenly God, the creator and owner of the universe who was watching all along and confirmed by the cries and complains of other citizens in the cities decided to come and see if it was true. This is what i call,”CAUGHT IN ACTION.” God indeed caught the two cities in action because the messengers of God were almost rapped, inspite of Lot begging them not to do such a thing to his guests. Lot even offered his DAUGHTERS instead of the guestS, who were MEN.

    For such act, HOMOSEXIAL God destroyed the two cities, not the WORLD. Malawians fear the watching eye of God rather than the world which Bill is worried of.

    Yes Malawi is part of the world, but Malawians must not conform to the world, but be transformed from the world by renewing of their minds with the word of God that is in Christ Jesus(as a Christian Nation).

    Rather fear God who is able to kill both body and spirit than the world that may only kill the body.

    Any Nation that is dead spiritually experiences hardship. God bless Malawi.

  2. Mr Mtambo, please dont lie ! What Mr Msonda said has a biblical basis. Read Leviticus 20 verse 13 , and see for yourself what the Bible says as to the penalty for homksexual acts. Gay acts cannot be backed by using the Bible, even God is agaoinst homosexual acts , read Romans chapter 1 verses 24 to 32 where in summary the Bible says gays will never go to heaven.If the only reason for allowing gay sex is that , its sex between two cosenting adults, they why not legalize incest?

  3. One only needs to read a few of the comments here to come to the conclusion that the people of Malawai are a bunch of uneducated barbaric animals.

    The world is watching you, and you will not get away with acting like animals towards your fellow citizens.

    THE WORLD IS WATCHING YOU.
    THE WORLD IS WATCHING YOU.
    THE WORLD IS WATCHING YOU.

  4. MZUNGU NDI SATANA. WHO CHOSES TO FOCUS ON ISSUES WHICH HE WILL BENEFIT. MZUNGU COULD NOT STOP GENOCIDE YA KU RWANDA, OPRESSION YA KU SOUTH AFRICA , APARTHEID YA KU PALESTINE , KOMA MZUNGU MUIKENI PA NYASI NGATI HOMOSEXUALITY OR BESTIALITY HE WILL FIGHT FOR YOUR RIGHTS. THIS HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH EVEN RELIGION, IT IS JUST HOW MZUNGU IS. PLEASE WAKE UP AFRICANS AND STUDY THE EUROPEAN AND HIS NATURE, THE WORLD HS NOT BEEN THE SAME. STOP DEPENDING ON DONORS, THEY ARE NOT HERE TO HELP BUT TO PLUNDER DESTROY UNTIL EVERYTHIN IS FINISHED.

  5. So its okay for a white man to say kill niggers but no one can say kill gays. Right. This is just a deflection. I agree with Msonda that Homosexuals dont belong in any society except the caucasian european cave culture. Africans have to wake up that the agenda of the white man is to bring as much confusion in our culture to destroy balance of nature. Even lions, and dogs which the white man loves dont have homoesxuality. Now A malawi focus yanu yasokonezedwa. Please stop giving homosexuals and sodomites your valuable time they will die a natural death. or better yet let them go to Europe and live amongst other homosexuals in peace . Akaone ngati ndi u black waowo they will be accepted. There are real life issues such as hunger famine and diseases or developing our country koma mukulimbana ndi za ndowe just because the Mzungu has your mind in his briefcase.

  6. It is a person’s human right to use his mtumbo (anus) for kunyela only. Timothy ,Trapence and ur fellow stupid lawyers shud be advocating for this.

  7. A Mtambo za mathanyula mumapanga ku sukulu zija mukanali nazo. Mmesa uli ndi mkazi umamuzembera kumakathanyulitsa

  8. A Mtambo kodi mathanyula anu akusukulu aja simunasiyebe. Simulizi ndi mkazi mumamuzembera kukathanyulitsa

  9. Amalawi gwetsani mitengo yonse ya mapapaya, anthu akagwa mu mpapaya angoti ine gay kapena ine lesb. why working against GOD? HE said multiply and fill the world as lake of sand. Gays and Lesbs how are you going to fulfill GOD’s words. please leave malawi alone and die yourselves. Msonda woyeehhhh!!!!!!!!!!!!!! malawi moto.

  10. Msonda landira ulemu wako komanso mulungu ndikumuona atalimba ndi amalawi achilungamo pa mulungu wao. Zikuoneka kuti zautsiluzi zalephereka. Apa zaoneka kuti izi zabwera ndi alendo. Chonde alendo chiphunzitso chanu chalephereka. chonde alendo mukafa tisanakuchenjezeni tchimo ndi lathu. Chonde ziwani kuti mulungu anapanga mkazi ndi kumpatsa Adam sanapange mamuna. Komanso njoka ija ikanampeza mamuna ikanathawa.
    Kwakula ndikusamuziwa mkazi kapena mamuna komanso kusachidziwa chipinda chogona.
    Chonde a Msonda zichepeseni akukugwiritsani ntchito ndi MULUNGU, YAHWE.

  11. we have accepted to be poor than to be perished by the wrath of God as Sodom and Gomorrah
    Malawi is a nation on its own.We have rejected gay in Malawi.Zopusa!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Saaaaaaaa!!!!

  12. Amangwetu what are we waiting for? we supposed to start the killing like yesterday.
    It’s just an suggestion,how about if we start with Mr Trepence? from my perspective let’s send this guy to his ancestors
    Malawi will be a better place without him ,in the process we’re sending a strong message to UN that we don’t take sh*** from Gay promoters

  13. Ken Msonda meant that gays should be killed through death sentences handed down by the courts not killing through mob justice or any extrajudicial. Nothing wrong.

  14. I can’t imagine being a homosexual with all the diarrhea that go with the mango season and the rainy season kkkkkk

  15. SODOMU NDI GOMORA ANAFERA ZOMWEZI NDIYE WINA AZITI IT HAS NO BIBLICAL BASIS? MBUZI,APM MBUZI TRAPENCE MBUZI,CHRR MBUZI MALAWI LAW SOCIETY MBUZI,UN MBUZI,BAN KI MOON MBUZI

  16. UN why don’t u condem the killing of Palestines,the Yemenis & other killing happening in the Middle East & recently a senior Israel Rabbi has declared killing all Palestines the only way Israeli can have peace. Killing of handful Gays & wiping the entire nation of Palestines which one deserves UN condemnation? Shame on Banki Moon the Stooge.

  17. hehe! un ndi chaniso? go to Saudi Arabia and tell them ndowe zanuzo. moti muzidandaula kuti mvula yavuta ndiye kumaganiza zopusazi?

  18. Yes Malawi will kill all Gays & Lesbians coz UN tolerates the killing of Palestines, Yemenis, Libyans, Syrians & all non Americans allies. And of late a senior Israel Rabbi has declared wiping the entire Palestines nation if Israel is to be peaceful, UN have u condemned this shame on Banki Moon the stooge.

  19. BBC television broadcast a lovely piece on a couple of gay men in the UK who have brought up five children who would otherwise not have had a loving family in which to be raised. Surely this is better than life in an orphanage or being fostered by a variety of parents through their developmental years.

    There are many homosexuals in Malawi but they must live in fear. This is not right. The country appears, from the posts here, to be a hateful place.

    I say again, Wanton Hate of Malawi. Forget the Warm Heart. Those posting here are badly misguided.

  20. If you are Parallel Market, you’l l wonder how this has been posted under your name. Nyasa Times’ site gave me your e-mail address: g**i***o@y****.**.**.

    We are assured that e-mail addresses will not be published!

    Not true, it seems.

  21. we better keep thieves, witches, wizards and murderers in our country than to keep GAYS and LESBIANS… to hell with you APM and UN…we will stick tightly to the point of killing them….do not infest our God fearing nation with sodomy…VIVA MSONDA..you have our backs.

  22. UN with fears on foolish things why can’t you have fears with our fate for the donors have abandoned us? Useless UN take them all to where they are welcome not here. Convince Mugabe first in ZIMBABWE.

  23. the fact that in malawi there z homosexuality we need to be proactive nt reactive.we hear that condoms were being distributed in prison nobody argue about the existence of homo and in my understandn even in boys boardn xool and girls xool thea z also the existence of homo.mind u these boys and girls kip on growing and the act of homo become part of thea life.we need to uproot the genesis of homosexual in malawi.its athng that need mult sector coordination otherwise this act is there and has been there and will be there.its just the same as chamba which has bn there and is there and will be there and continue being illegal.the problem is not homosexual but the system of government we are in.all is coming in the name of democracy and with that we will accomodate habits that may be described bad to others.when aperson or two ppo do thing on their own without violating others rite then its fine.homosexual will nt health wise affect aperson that does nt do it.for that case i can support it otherwise we need to go back to dictatorship then gays beware and i mean that they will nowhere to be seen even if it means killing them.kkk.The late Dr Hastings Kamuzu Banda Aka Ngwazi once said multiparty ndi nkhondo.solution iz dictatorship or do homo with ppo who suport it

  24. Malawi is a Christian country and we based our moral value on the word of God.
    Leviticus 18:22 also 20:13: This gay nonsense is an abomination before God and Malawi shall never accept such behaviors. A man should not sleep with another mas as he would with a woman. This is clear in the bible. Malawian leaders needs to honor this as part of our culture and not give in to the western pressures.

    1 Corinthians 6:9-10, “Or do you not know that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived; neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor homosexuals, 10 nor thieves, nor the covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor swindlers, shall inherit the kingdom of God.”

  25. UN What? You westerners stop being used by that old sepernt. Where are you and your human rights when gays are being persecuted. The case of albinos is something real and happening on the ground. Albinos are also a minority and they are being butchered. I have not heard an western human right campaigner speaking for their rights. To hell with your pretentious ways, and stop forcing MW I things we don’t believe. What is human right in being gay when those sperms accumulate in the wrong place and can be fatal. You are exposed is time to pack and go. Tell your masters, we can’t fool the black man this time around.

  26. Thats Haraam….They deserve to be punished,even Catholic social Teachn imakana that nasty behaviour…Thats why God destroyed Sodom so we dont want him to destroy Our Lovely country so those people they should be punished severe

  27. Thats Haraam….They deserve to be punished,even Catholic social Teachn imakana that nasty behaviour…Thats why God destroyed Sodom so we dont want him to destroy Our Lovely country so those people they should be punished severe

  28. we have cultures,traditions and norms UN get these worser than dogs peiople out of malawi or we will complitely eliminate them full stop

  29. MULUNGU TALANGENI MTAMBO NDI TRAPENCE TATOPA NDI ZOPUSA KODI KUPEZA KWA NDALAMA ZIZIKHALA KUTI ANTHU ENA ADZIPANGA MATHANYULA OKAY TIKUWONERANI POMPANO POMPANO IWE MTAMBO NDI TRAPANCE AKULANGANI

  30. Msonda is absolutely correct! We do not need this dirty stuff here in Malawi. Man vs women sexual relationship is just as a small heaven on earth!

    Gays need to be burnt and flash them out of this country.

    If you are a gay shame and mockery on you!

  31. “it’s either to accept us(Lesbians) or Kill us all!!!”..thats how they’re Challenging us(Humble Malawians) so why cant we walk there talk?…hey UN let me tell you that We as Malawians we have our own Culture(Our ways of living) so plz do not interfere and bring confusionz among Malawians let us live as we are.No Single endogenous Malawian Would accept Gay Marriages (i sway)..The shameless UN chairperson Ban ki moon went here in our Country some years ago just for Muonjeza & Chimbalanga’s Release..so why cant he just come again and take all Gayz to wherever they think they can be accepted?..COZ MALAWI WILL NEVER EVER WELCOME THIS NASTY THING!!!,LESBIAS ARE STRANGE ANIMALS INTO OUR COUNTRY AND I DONT THINK THEY DO HAVE A RIGHT TO LIFE HERE…Keep Hiding or Come out and face Machete.

  32. I wonder why people like Mtumbo Kaya Tambo and his friend ndani uja are still given the publicity by journalist. Leav use alone after all you have already withdrawn your support to us. Have we stopped existing sincey you with hold your support. Go to hell and talk your shit there. UN, UN kuti chiyani. Your days are number all of you who are causing this shit of noise.

  33. Why did Kachale discontinue this case??? That’s the question. This seems like yet another unwise decision made at the highest levels of APM’s administration, and Mr Colville (and the UN) must be concerned with this.
    Consensus among scientists at the frontier is that homosexuality is partly genetic. The implication, then, is that the practice cannot be wished away, even with death threats.
    What’s the problem of letting them be who they claim to be??

  34. UN fear not we will kill them If they to keep water in a sand soil Malawi is not ready for this madness

  35. Trapence and Mtambo; two fools that cannot handle the backlash for their foolishness. Go and tell your masters; there is no room for them here! Viva Msonda. Tikupangirani ma demo tsopano ana a Satana inu!

  36. UN is playing double standards here. Let UN tell their nonsense to China, Saudi Arabia or North Korea and leave Malawi alone. To hell with your concerns!!! Malawi will continue to hate and reject any disgusting western behaviour including homosexuality. Homosexuals are worse than dogs and deserve to be killed.

  37. there are alot of innocent souls who are being killed everyday in middle east, black people continue to suffer racism silently in RSA. Go and help them.. leave malawi alone…african solutions 4 african problems

  38. Kill all gays so that we can crean our sociaty,We better remain poor than to accept that sinfull behavior.UN is not a church or mosque that they can back up with a bible or choran just leave them coz they dont kno what they are doing.

  39. Stupid ICC, stupid UN, to hell. You failed to arrest Bush for killing innocent pple in Iraq. Leave Msonda alone. Msonda, we are with you

  40. UN have failed to stop the Wars around the world.The issue of Gays here in Malawi is not allowed if found you have to be STONED as the Bibles says.Gayism is ABOMINATION ACT and the punishment is being killed by mob justice.United Nation;CSO’s and Human Rights Groups their sweet words about Gayism can not Blind us.To hell with the Satanic money from western Nations.

  41. Nsonda cannot be charged with any offence since social media is not regulated in Malawi.

    In the previous national assembly, DPP government brought a bill that aimed at regulating in social media and online news but the opposition led by dunderhead Chakwera rejected it since in their analysis they thought DPP was aiming at suffocating their mouthpiece “nyasatimes”.

    In this case Nsonda just wanted to see what the government would say on this that would implicate any future summons with evidence from the social media,CCTV cameras or phonecalls. Unfortunately artoney general and Kachale have chosen to sweep it under the carpet. Wagwa nayo Msonda.

  42. Can you people please correct me, what’s the real name of this guy? Is it Mtumbo or Mtambo? From what emanates from him seems like it comes from the anus. He really talks a load of bull Eish!

  43. UN and it’s officials are lost in their jobs. What matters to them are hefty salaries and allowances. They do not care about the suffering of millions of people in Iraq, Libya, Tunisia etc.
    Why is UN worried with non existent gays. Un is a big let down to all countries

  44. The DPP has shown maturity. The trial of msonda was the trial of malawi and millions of Malawians. Many people mobilised themselves in readiness to defend msonda. This was likely to bring chaos in the country. Really should we sell and destroy our country because of non existent gays etc. Your guess is as good as mine

  45. If I was given a chance to comment constructively, I would say Mr. Msonda is biblically correct because Romans 6:23, says, ‘ wages of sin is death but the gift of God is external life”. Mr. Mtambo can tell us how this death will come about.

    Unless Mr. Msonda is being pursued because of his faith, otherwise in other faiths if you are caught in the sin, you are stoned to death.

  46. 1- Jesus said some people born gay. Matthew 19 ves 10-12. 2-Jesus affirmed a gay Couple, Matthew 8 ves 13. 3-Early Church welcomed a gay Man , Acts 8 ves 26-40. 4- Ruth loved Naomi the same way Adam loved Eve, Genesis 2 ves 24 and Ruth 1 ves 14. 5- David loved Jonathan so much more than a woman, 2 Samuel 1 ves 26. The Bible says Do not judges, Because you will be judged as well.

  47. I really don’t know what to say to mtambo and usa. But listen to this. If any of my children was gay I would poison him. If any of my 100 employees was gay I would fire him or her. If I knew any person to be gay they would not be welcome in my property business or residential. I am happy JB. lost the election because she suspended a good law. I hope APM. will lose too for the same reason. If any of these leaders came close to me and I had a gun I would shoot them.

  48. The fear of unkown is enshrined in the precedence that Malawi has a history of taking law into hands. Just imagine two men are caught in my neighbourhood doing such act… suteky they can be stonned to death by the mob. The crew here kill even stray visitors to households at night. They dont want their children to learn such acts but to fear the stiff pubishment associated with it.

  49. UN is another shameful body that applies selective justice to poor countries like Malawi. Tell China, North Korea, Iran, Saudi Arabia, etc your nonsense. Malawi’s decision to reject, kill, criminalise and descriminate against homosexuals must be respected. This is our country and our culture. Leave us alone after all you stoped supporting our national budget. Go to hell with your concerns.

  50. Why should the so called UN be concerned on something that is not happening or that has no lead that it will happen? The UN should be concerned with the suffering in the Middle East, South Sudan and many more war zones. Leave Malawi alone. Malawi is worried of poverty, hunger and disease not gay. Gay is a personal choice and a strange act to any normal person. Rupert and Mtambo, please give Malawi a break, there are better things to worry about. If you earn your butter and bread through fighting for gays, I’m afraid you are in a wrong country.

  51. Rupert and Mtambo, don’t create a mountain in the valley. If you have nothing to do, please just rest peacefully. I believe the people you are fighting for know they won’t be killed because of Msonda’s statement. Just advise them to do whatever in private. After all why should sexual acts be shown to the Malawi public? As far as they do whatever in the confines of their houses/rooms, nobody will bother on something not seen. But to come out in the public that has not accepted that strange act in society then there could be problems. Just wait for our generation not accepting that act to pass then you can easily promote the strange behavior.

  52. Let every man in his mind and honest self answer this question . . . .

    Which is better

    To marry a stunningly well-curved beautifully-faced captive-holding but empty headed hence financially-parasitic woman OR a not-so-beautiful but brainy hence financially independent woman?

    Rare is the combination of beauty, brains and manners yet formidable and desirable it is.

    Sacrifice and trade of one for the other, in sensible measures; is therefore every man’s duty and challenge. To realise this, is a mark of wisdom.

  53. O……………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………O
    You the UN, carry yourselves as intelligent people when you go out advising other nations; but truth be told, you are no more or less than chicken-headed pigs.

    . . . You just watch as America and other arrogant and misguided nations kill people in Iraq, Syria and other countries.
    . . . You look away as Israel continues to kill Palestinians willy-nilly.

    Are you telling us that these are less human hence not worthy of your protection or voice? Are they not part of the United Nations? Why are you selective in your duty?
    Why then do you fear for killing of gays in Malawi when no gay has ever been killed before?; and not even a single hair has ever been plucked from any gay’s head; yet you look not concerned when America, Israel and others continue to kill innocent women, men, children e.t.c?
    Are you of sound mind?
    Your inconsistency, lack of principle and integrity is disgustingly egregious.
    Mxiiiiiiiii
    ……………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………….
    Now, who shall help me hold the head and pump sense into this big egg-headed fool called Mtambo? Which biblical world is this idiot referring to? It smacks of lack of wisdom and intelligence to celebrate one’s ignorance in public. Unless you are talking about Anton LaVey’s Satanic bible; homosexuality is a sin condemned by death.

    “Its a pity that stupidity is not painful.” – Anton LaVey

    Otherwise, this Mtambo could have felt the pain and stopped being stupid, especially in public.
