Malawi army soldier kills 2 colleagues
A Malawi Defence Force (MDF) soldier has killed two of his colleagues at Tsangano in Ntcheu where they were working on a road project.
MDF spokesperson Paul Chiphwanya said the soldier, Robert Banya has killed corporals Magombo and Keston Mtambo of Engineers battalion using a pistol.
Chiphwanya however could not say why the soldier killed his colleagues in cold blood.
However sources say Banya had disagreements with his girlfriend who works as a police officer at Ntcheu police.
The girlfriend reported him to Ntcheu police who arrested the soldier and upon his release, he went to Lilongwe where he got a pistol from his office and returned to Ntcheu on mission to kill.
Sensing danger, the woman fled to the Engineers battalion where the soldiers are working on a road project for protection.
It is said Banya followed her there and the two colleagues whom he shot were restraining him from shooting the woman.
He then escaped in the stampede which followed.
The MDF spokesperson Chiphwanya is warning people that Banya is dangerous and armed.
Why so heart less
Our enlisted men are highly disciplined. This is a sad story. And possibly isolated case.
Chitsiru uli ndi mwai kuti waombela amzako a MDF ukanabwera kwathu ku PMF ukananya. May the souls of our brothers rest in peace.
Unfortunately our security forces have too many such unstable people amongs their ranks who feel that being in a police or military uniform makes them above the law. I fear for this country.
Aaaa! What a looser?
All these women in the world?
The best way to fight rejection is to better yourself. Forget the girl and work hard to build your capacities to do better in life azakufuna utachita bwino and it will be your opportunity to reject her
Zoona zake zimenezo ndipo ine ndimmozi amene zinandichitikila Koma ndinazisiya mmanja mwa chauta, ndinagwira ntchito molimbika today m on top akundifunanso…
Ndizomwe mimanamizana. If you say you have moved on and she will want you in future, dude you have not moved on
I like your argument!
Chamba chimazunguza bongo
Ali ndi chiwanda ameneyo, usilikali ndikupha adani osati ur fellow soldiers
Koma mwanakazi anakonza, mpaka Banya kufa head to kill
Finally you mate your fate from commando team.
He is just a fool
He is on the run sure???Loosing two officers.He must be gone to join RENAMO in Mocambique.
we need hi alive that he faces the trial
May the slain soldiers rest in peace. That is not good for the nation.
Umbuli ndikudzimva ndizinthu zachabe, MDF personnel always think they are untouchable hence they follow what their emotions are telling them and ignore what their brain is telling them, a good sign of umbuli!
Mbuli ndi iwe, sukuziwa chochitika…. This is a sad story indeed but it does not portray the picture of all Malawi Defence soldiers. We are different people with different mindsets. Can we conclude that an organisation picture is dented coz of one man’s action?????
Sure, it’s well concluded sir. We can not expect this happening in our camp dude, but no wonder the type of the leader is useless as well. Shame!
Sheeeee, kungopita ku Lilongwe kukatenga fire arm. Pompatsa pistol amati akupita nayo kuti. Kapena inali ku nyumba kwake. Zowopsa kwabasi
Satanism !
Recruitment within the barracks, ana amabwana. Childishness, arrogance and selfishness combined. How do you kill fellow men who were father’s, uncles or brothers. This tragic. sanctity to life.
Ethics compromised here.
May their souls rest in peace.
