Mahomed warned ministry over Livimbo school encroaching into his land

Businessman Nurmahomed Ahmed Mahommed instructed his lawyers Phoya and Associates to inform Ministry of Education that plots 2/213 and 2/229 at Livimbo Secondary and Primary Schools in Lilongwe was actually encroaching into his land.

Mahomed: Owner of the warehouses informed the ministry of education about encroachment in  the year 2000

According to a letter seen by Nyasa Times, Mahommed informed the ministry on July 19 2000.

The letter brought to the attention of Ministry of Education that the perimeter wall being constructed around Livimbo “encroached” into Mahommed’s land “so much so that if the same is allowed to remain in place, our client’s land will completely lose its value.”

Mahommed through his lawyers requested the ministry to stop the construction and “pull down” the part of the wall which had been constructed.

The revelations of the letter comes as government says it  will take legal action against the two Malawi businesspersons  over part of Livimbo schools land where the latter are alleged to have encroached on.

According to Minister of Lands and Urban Development Symon Vuwa-Kaunda, 6.1 metres of the school grounds was encroached upon and that government will be forced to demolish the erected property if developers were not going to comply.

Vuwa Kaunda said government acquired the said school plot (No 2/212) from Conforzi Estate in 1971 and that Livimbo school land is not sold.

But the businessperson also claim they acquired the plots 2/239 and 2/213 from Conforzi in 1956.

The Livimbo saga follows a syndicate that the Lands Ministry busted some few weeks ago where parallel lands office is being run in issuing of fake documents for plots. Seven suspects were arrested in connection with the dubious ‘Lands Office’.

Conforzi was a big crooked.He typically fooled our local leaders kalero while deliberately aware that during that time land was not permeanately given to the foreigners.They started grabbing land little by little through tricks and subtle approaches at an expense of our chief who could not even understand what they are sighning..This is a total shit.In India they even become not when the black man fuck an Indian lady they kill.When you go for further studies,they charge more a black student on rentals than fellows.Racist? Yes these are racist.Agrarain change and rural development Ex411

My dear FB Judges, I have observed and noted that the wrangle is about a boundary between plots 2/212 (Livimbo School) and 2/213 (Mwenyedala). These plots were formally owned by Conforce. My question is that where is Lilongwe City Council. LCC musamaoneke odziwa anthu akamakanganilana malire pano zakhudza boma ndi mwenyedala muli ziii. Bring the official map about the two plots on the site and let the public know the encroacher. Can somebody tell us also more about this man called Conforce? It’s like he had a lion’s share of our land across the country, for example, Thyolo, Limbe, Blantyre,… Read more »

Guys stop this foolish behaviour and use some common sense this guy has done nothing wrong his not encroached the Livimbo land and no one has. The fact is this land was being sold to a high profile Indian connection who has most ministries in his back pocket from to to bottom and when the shit hit the fan they decided to divert the attention to this poor man who has done nothing wrong. And the minister came quickly to divert the attention of the public by saying the land has been encroached and not sold. And unfortunately majority of… Read more »

City land is supposed to be developed within 2 years or else the city repossess the land. So if he acquired it in 1956 and 50 years passed without developing the land the the land is for the city not his

The mwenye issue is a smoke screen because ministers are also involved in this land grabbing spree. One minister has built a lodge on a forestry department land reserved for expansion. If people were stealing like this during the Kamuzu Era then what we see today would not be there.
