Most of these refugees come through mozambique, then why put them in karonga instead of MWanza closer to the border they come from. Those who come through Tanzania are mostly intercepted by boarder police

There is plenty land at NDATA why not relocate it to Thyolo?

Zabwino zonse mumafuna zizipita ku NDATA, zonyansa ku north. Sitilola, dothi ku dothi!

Kwa amene amadziwa ku Katili…it is unfortunate kuti govt ikufuna ichite zoterozo. Yes it is a hard to reach area but has a lot of untapped natural resources besides its proximity to Nyika National Park. If this happens tiyembekezere kuwonongeka kwa chilengedwe kupitirira apo kulanda malo abwino a anthu a ku Katili. Izi zisachitike.

Govt, how much can K100 million take to repatriate how many refugees? Its all wrong as well to have a refugee camp inside the country and closer to the capital. Repatriation and intergration should be solutions. Its painful to a Malawian who has been suffering all along for poor road, water, health, electricity and other basic services and only come to respond when trying to relocate refugees. This is an insult to Malawians. Its not about the north abale anga atumbuka take out your hard won tribal remarks and lets look at the issues objectively. The question is not them… Read more »

What I know about this issue was that the temporary transit shelter at Karonga old town should relocate but not the whole Dzaleka camp relocating to Karonga. For Dzaleka camp the workers are not happy with Dzaleka moving elsewhere because they say ndi mgodi wawo uwu. Komaso kodi bomali tulo. why not repatriate these asylum seekers? Amachita kunyadatu anthu amaenewa. Amatha kugula galimoto kukasiya kwawo ku DRC etc. search me.

What kind of government is this that we have in Malawi? Malawi doesn’t need to relocate these people but to repatriate them to the countries of their origin. Is it a crime that Malawians chose to be peaceful even in the face of reasons to go to war with itself. In these other countries quota system or favoritism by government on tribal basis is enough reasons to go to war. We have instead chosen peace in the midst of these adversities. So why should we allow these war mongers into territory. WE SAY NO TO KATILI RELOCATION.

Let the north not be a dumping ground of the ‘unwanted’ Why provide water and a road to refugees when the indigenous’ cry for development falls on deaf ears – and so a Burundi is a recognisable person to Malawi government than a Ngonde?

The most ridiculous thing is that Government is promising a road, police station and water infrastructure just because of refugees! So refugees are more important than citizens!? Please tell UNHCR to repatriate these refugees forthwith! Ntcheu and other districts are suffering heavy deforestation and overpopulation because of Mozambican refugees. Now we have an influx of Burundi and Somalis…our country is too overcrowded and too poor to take in more refugees. Let this problem be resolved by African Union, not a small country like Malawi. Let
