Since when has DPP been a corporate “citizen”. DPP enacts and breaks laws at will. It has no regard for procedures and processes even those laid down in their own charter/constitution. The party is known for disregarding the dries of the people and the CSOs cries won’t be any exception. The part is known for buying its own way even it means bribing judges. DPP is know for collapsing the very legal system and law enforcement agencies they have themselves created. DPP thrives in chaos and it has fans to the tune of 36% of the voting population. DPP is… Read more »

The National Audit has been used by politicians to appoint their stooges, Joice Banda appointed Kamphasa who gave an audit report without names. At the National Audit Kamphasa was seen as a very bad guy. He sub contract to private auditors all audits to be done by the National Audit, yet NAO use ISSAIs and private audit use ISAs. The lack of experience on private auditors led to his outcry on substandard work. By subcontracting people at the NAO were suspect corruption by their head the former AG.

Where is the commitment do to things differently (transparently) if you are more than happy to do things the same old (corrupt) ways! And if indeed this guy was best placed to assume this position why subject him to “appearances” that this was done because he was not?!

Mwala’s CV is very rich having worked in the National audit before. Those questioning his appointment are fully aware of this fact that’s why none of them have questioned his professional competence. No law has been broken, therefore seeking court redress is abuse of the court process. Demanding the setting of the effective date for the new law so as to have that date fall before the appointment of Mwala is asking for the application of that law retrospectively. That is illegal. Since the effective date is not yet, there is no way it can be backdated. The appointment of… Read more »

Mesimadzi do you know how many people in the National Audit who have better qualifications than this guy? Many. He will lack experience because the time he was there as an assistant auditor audit was not using RAM. So as a head He will be taught even the basics of audit as it was with Kamphasa.

Mesimadzi, the issue is around the lack of transparency in the appointment of one of key appointments especially in light of rampant corruption in the country. What is wrong with the government following a transparent process (new or old laws). Government should be be seen or be above abroad when it comes to its own conduct. The appointment just looks suspicious hence the challenge. In any case, mesimadzi, you should be siding with the CSOs for challenging the appointment process. DPP is known for lack of governance in its dealings and this appointment just proves the same. DPP is always… Read more »

I thought once a law is gazetted it becomes law. Does it need an effective date. Once gazetted its law.

The World Bank has also protested the appointment of the new ODPP saying that they will withhold 80 billion budget. World Bank has issued a strongly worded letter. za ulendo uno kaya.

I know Mwala well. Definitely not suitable for the job. Don’t read too much into the qualifications. For those that say he worked for National Audit before do you know kuti anali ndi udindo wanji kumeneko?
