Malawi Police ‘ready’ for demo: Mbewe, Usi blame CSOs

Malawi Police Services has said it is ready to  police and protect Malawians including those who will be take part in the January 13  anti-government  street protests  organised civil society organisations (CSOs) against the National Aids Commission’s (NAC) disbursement of funds to non-conventional organisations and governance concerns.

Police brass: Our priority is and will remain ensuring public safety

According to the police, the general public should feel free to go about their daily economic and social activities without fear as it is in full control.

National police spokesperson Rhoda Manjolo told Nyasa Times that the police are ready to protect people and property .  She said they are not expecting anyone to misbehave.

Manjolo said Malawi Police Service is mandated by the constitution to provide safety and security to all citizens regardless of one’s standing in society and is also mandated to provide security in all planned demonstrations as stipulated in Police Act under part 9.

“We understand that these will be peaceful demonstrations,” she said. However, Manjolo said the police are ready to act lawfully if some people will start misbehaving in order to protect the property and lives of the innocent people.

“The organisers have assured us they do not want any trouble and their intention is to hold a short peaceful assembly before moving on,” she said.

Manjolo said law enforcers will act in a neutral capacity to facilitate the peaceful assembly and  expect those attending to ensure they do behave peacefully and they don’t become involved in trouble.

Police has since asked those who are taking part in the demonstrations to ensure that they are following designated routes to avoid the wrath from the law enforcers.

Some CSOs are taking to the street on January 13 against NAC’s disbursement of funds to First Lady Gertrude Mutharika’s Beautify Malawi (Beam) Trust and Mulhako wa Alhomwe cultural group which counts President Peter Mutharika among its members.

But Cultural Heritage Cooperation of Malawi acting director Dr. Owen Mbewe has described the planned as unnecessary.

Mbewe said the CSOs have personal interest in the planned demonstrations hence their reasons for demonstrating are not valid.

“Where were all these people and CSOs when people were stealing money from government in the infamous cashgate scandal and hiding it in cars and roof-sealing, why did they not choose to demonstrate then?” pondered Mbewe when he addressed reporters.

He added, “I appeal to Malawians to change their mentality on how to deal with issues affecting the nation, people should not rush to demonstrate but try to find a peaceful solutions through dialogue.”

Adventist Development Relief Agency (Adra) deputy executive director Michael Usi has also argued that demonstrations against NAC disbursement of funds to non-conventional organisations do not have a valid basis.

“Demonstrations should lead to elements that should build Malawi and not just to show power and presence,” said Usi, who is popular for playing the actor ‘Manganya’ in the local television Aids drama Tikuferanji.

Usi accused organisers of the street protests of being confused in their approach.

Buts CSO’s spokesman for the demonsytrations, Timonty Mtambo, said those that are speaking against the demonstration were part of government propaganda machinery to frustrare the protests.

“It’s all system go, the demonstrations will take place peacefully and our message will be put across. It’s a right to demonstrate and also our responsibility to do it peacefully,” he said.

According to Mtambo, there will be wide range of issues of national concerns that will be covered in a petition to be presented after the demonstrations.

  7. Manganya is one guy who is always trying to seek public attention,all his wants is popularity Basi nothing else!!! Legally those demostrating r simply exercising their constitutional right

    1. what Manganya said was correct all premises were built correctly into facts.If you say he is a popularity fanatic then his mind is the right place

  8. Call demos Mtambo .why are northeners alwas critical for nothing. U build houses in bt and Ll instead of developing ur dead north. Shame mtambo and Undule etc…

  10. I always wonder why people argue against demonstrations on the basis of deaths that occurred in 2011. Our Policemen went overboard in controlling these demonstrations. Demonstrations are a democratic right. How is it that the JB regime controlled demonstrations led by Kapito? Some regimes are just bloody.

  11. Stupid noisy dogs bark at their own shadows and other stupid individuals allow themselves to be used by gay organisations and failed politicians who want to achieve their personal interests and political milleage. Only savages allow themselves to be used but responsible citizens cant allow that.

  13. goverment diverted k50m within the government in other words that money was not put in ppls pocket rather used in a different department for th better of the nation, now due to some jeolous ppl, govrnment will have to spend more than k50m to arm th police, fuel th vehiclez etc…now i ask th inteligent ppl does it make sensel

  14. The demo should be rerouted in less busier streets to avoid incoveniencing other road users who are not concerned with the demos;the police should escort the demos to protect property and citizens from unruly vendors that may join demos

  15. Nanunso tulo. DPP ndiye chipani chenicheni, DPP inakakhala matumbo osachedwa kuola lnakabwerera m’boma? Ngati unadya nawo za cashgate umangidwa. Ka chipani kako ndi kamene kanaola moti sikangakuteteze.

  18. Dr. Owen Mbewe, osamafunsa kuti where were all the CSOs nthawi ya cashgate, nthawi ikakwana for a change yakwana basi mpusoooo!!!

  19. Mtambo is a confusionists , no direction , hungry dog on money. You are being used for nothing and you will end up like LUTEPO in cahgate cases wondering alone later on having heart attacks due to being used. Concentrate on issues like KAPITO who gains after saying it…………see fuel prices now. That’s development for common people. Think like a man.

  20. Whatever reasons one group or may have for demos,they are legally allowed to do so.Its their right to do so.What I want is to hear from NAC.I think I have enough from those who are against and who are for.These two groups arguments exposes something went wrong with NAC..

  21. @ mac
    Activism does nt only appy to those critisizing the govt, bt also assisting the society to achieve a certain goal weather economically, socially or health. So Manganya is also an activism.
    Kawelenge Dalaweni wako wamva.

  22. Demonstrations to whose benefit? What about those people who died during demonstrations what did they benifit other than leaving their families in problems? Poor uneducated people don’t allow to be used up to the extent of losing your lives for nothing. Tell me people revolutionize in Libya, what did they gain? Libya was a power house in Africa economically but now the country has got two governments running concurrently is that stability? Don’t be stupid leave that useless cheap politics to those who benefit from that & concentrate on kulima chimanga ndi nthawi yopalira iyi

    1. Nde imene simbola ndi itinerario? Ngati DPP ikumanga ma University ndi miseu ilí mbola ku Malawi sukuzapezeka chipani chabwino. Imaging kwacha appreciating tobacco off season. Boma la ma genius. Wakwiya ndi mfiti.

  23. thought that is silenced is always rebellious.majority, of course, are often mistaken. this is why the silencing of minorities is necessarily dangerous. criticism and dissent are the indispensable antidote to major delusions. we are given rights to demonstrate our constitution is very clear. imwe namwe wa owen mbewa kaya u call it mbewe- you seem not to have collected your Dr in the right way. the reason to demonstrate is open to everyone who feels have a good point to do so– if you too had comprehensive idea to demonstrate in the parade of cashgate, bwanji sunapange? leave these people to do so chifukwa they have reasons to act. namwe wapolice nthumbo waka chuku apa ngati mwalya nkhala–dont terrify wanthu with your guns during demonstrations—ndinu amene mukapangitsa ziwawa. Nawe mtimbusha kaya ndiwe tembusha— let me teach you, there is no contradiction between effective law enforcement and respect for civil and human rights. the reason why your parents insisted you to go to school is for you to know these things. basi kukhalira kukumba mbewa tsiku lina you will dig Dr mbewe as his name is related to this animal. a police nonse kapena azilonda awanthu pa 13 mzapite ku munda tchire lakulu do the weeding.

  24. A Usi a Seventh Day anakuchotsani paumbuli ndikukupatsani kuwala ndi maphunziro, plus sukulu ya mature koma nzeru zikali zomwezija za chimidzimidzi malo mowaonetsa anzanu kuwala. Kodi wawononga tikuferanji kukha chida chopangira kampeni DPP si inuyo a Usi? Kutereku mukuwona kuyipa kwaanzanu osati kwainu?

  25. When such issue transpire, it provides some of us microscope to see how most Malawians have empty carves in their heads. But some demonstrate marked flawed reason simply because their tribe matters more than mother Malawi. In the first place, it is foolhardy to trash the whole concept of holding demonstrations. The thing is if people didn’t demonstrate during the previous regime, it doesn’t mean that when the current administration messes up things people should just watch in silence. What pint sized Manganya and Mbewe are implying is that governments are at liberty to plunder natural resources so long as the similar fraudulent activity happened during the preceding administration.Thats faulty reason at its peak. What is then the reason to usher in a new administration? I thought it’s all about seeing change for the beer ?

  26. Usi must be schooled that what the people want to the street is not of his interest at all. We know that he has been given K10m to write against the demos in the paper as well as on this Tv station is very poor Televisiion in the whole southern Africa. If thee is the truth
    of what this boy manganya barks why did Tv Tutsi boy not bring in those citing for demos to be aired on the same Tv. Kupusa a manga nya kobasi kuzolowera yemweyo mkazi wa mwini wake make asikono . And for your poor Chichewa languge USUSA ah! are you really a Malawian or MNYACHUSA? We say KUTSUTSA KUPUSA ZOTUMIDWA AMAPANDIDWA NAZO.

  27. I fully support demos. The first lady is irresponsible and insensitive. Do you that her actions has made Global Fund to cancel $600million on Malawi?

    So Manganya is talking nonsense here. Those who are defending this confused government are also insane. They do not have relatives that will need ARVs, malaria and Tb drugs. Lets not argue like chickens.

    Keep up Mtambo and company!

  28. iwe manganya kufupika sikukuthandiza ukatero wapeza masewero he he he nzeru zinatha to hell with you

  29. usi kufupika msinkhu ndi nzeru zomwe ngati akufumbatitsa banzi idya chabe…siyani anthu ayende iwe ngati ulibe vuto sikuti nditonse ayi chitsilu fotseke ukhale chete.

  30. All those who are against demonstrations are stupid, foolish, monkeys and barbaric. Do you not know that everyone has brains so that he/she think independently and his on decisions. At no time should anybody think as you think. Do force us to be like you,we are all originals in our thinking.

  31. No time to waste demo goes by democracy the looting of govmt thumba started long time ago it revealed in time of jb coz she was leniant pls don’t Block demo malawians let us wake up of these so called andale.

  32. Manganya mwayisiya tikuferanji mwayamba u activist siyani ku Adra chifukwa anzanu akufuna mpandowo. Ndipake Manganya kuthandiza anthu a DPP chifukwa anafuna kumukwapula pa nthawi ya Bingu pasewero loyerekeza Kamuzu .mukuonaso musewero la tikuferanji akutchulamo JB ZIKUGWIRIZANA NDI ZOFUNA ADRA? Tikuziwa manganya akufuna ndalama kwa APM basi palibe china.

  33. Mr Usi respect yourself u have nothing to do on this, just shut your small mouth. People are tired of being treated like fools, tell the cops also that if they are happy with the leadership, it means they dont have love for there country

  34. @ kanyimbi

    Ndinu opusa kwambiri. Go and hung. Chicken brain. The right to express one’s service through demonstrations is enshrined in the supreme law of the land. School baba

  35. Demos are way of showing frustrations. Its true that demos must a last resort after exhausting dialogue. The problem with our system is that the people in power become immune to voice of reason. Look around you whether in offices or villages leaders tend to rule not lead

  36. What do u expect from Usi? He is a pure Lhomwe. Just watch n listen to his Tikuferanji Program these days, pure partisan politics, he thinks wr kids eti? Afterall, just FAVOVERED tobe there by the church

  37. In 1993 we voted for multi-party democracy. The right to demonstrate about issues citizens have concerns about is a core principle of democracy. It does not really matter whether some of us think the reasons are adequate or not. It is the right of the people who want to demonstrate to do so.

    The question we should be asking is not really whether any demo should be held or not, but rather why each government since 1994 thinks it is wrong for people to demonstrate against it when it knows fully well that this is part of democracy? Why is the DPP govt cartooning the national broadcaster and people like Usi on this straightforward matter?

    The previous DPP govt killed a lot of people in 2011 during a demonstration. One would have thought that the ‘new’ DPP govt would have learnt its lesson and would not have interfered with the planned January 13 demo in any way. Because of the fear that Malawian Govts show towards demos, CSO leaders have seen that if you want to get Govt’s attention you simply have to announce a demo – immediately you have the govt ‘wetting its pants’.

    Malawian govts have nothing to fear about demonstrations as was shown during Joyce Banda’s administration. Initially she was also jittery about the demo, but in the end the demonstration went on so peacefully. Everyone was left wondering what the initial fuss was all about…

  38. What ‘ll change after all?let them eat the money deir is nothng we can do to stop them….dey r many.remambr what GOD said”LOVE,FORGIVE AND FORGET.JUDGEMENT IS MINE.lets try to be children of GOD he will fight 4 us!!!!

  39. Through the comments now I have known why CSOs are advocating for demonstrations.

    It looks like the battle which is being waged here is between the TUMBUKAZ AND THE LOMWEZ
    Why?

    Chilichonse chimene anganene mtumbuka ndi chanzelu because he or she is against QUOTA SYSTEM these other reasons being purported are just for the sake of those who do not lead the situation and follow the trends.

    Remember undule mwakasungula organized demonstrations against bad governance but this was after QUOTA SYSTEM was introduced and to him this was discriminatory policy. Hence the reason behind those national wide demonstrations.

    chilichonse chimene anganene mulomwe ndi chopanda nzeru because he or she [to the thinking of mtumbuka ] support QUOTA SYSTEM which has been re introduced by APM and DPP led government.

    That is why Timothy Mtambo from the North though he might not be Mtumbuka per se who took over leadership of CHRR from Undule Mwakasungula would like to continue and finish the job his former boss started. So besides Nacgate there is a BIG THORN IN THE HEART OF TIMOTHY MTAMBO which is QUOTA SYSTEM of which for him and others equates to BAD GOVERNANCE hence the MAJOR REASON BEHIND THE DEMONSTRATIONS.

    During amayi 2 year period the issue of quota system almost died a natural death and it was not clear to the public whether the policy still existed or not. I think may be Mtambo was aware of what happened to the policy hence Cashgate, Maizegate, Jetgate etc etc DID NOT AMOUNT TO BAD GOVERNANCE. Therefore there was no need for demonstrations.

    You may wonder that so if MTAMBO and relatives do not want APM, among the potential leaders who do they want? Simple DR CHAKWERA. Why? Chakwera is regarded as a Northerner because he married a northerner. furthermore during his campaign he promised people of the north that he will abolish discriminatory policies among them QUOTA SYSTEM. Remember the chipelekezyo cha wa MAMA Chakwera kkkkkkk!!!!!

    I hope those of you who are supporting or not supporting the demonstrations now you know the MAJOR REASON BEHIND THE DEMONSTRATION. And watch out be on the look out after these demonstrations another wave of activities against APM and DPP is coming among them Demonstrations by healthy workers 7 days ultimatum already presented, Demonstrations by those supporting federation or secession 90 days ultimatum also already presented to government.

    God Bless You All!!!!!

  40. Asowa chonena a Usi. Angopitiliza kuchita sewero ndi Amai ake a Sikono. His reasoning is flawed and wrong. How can reducing the number of PSs to 18 help the country? Training of people in various skills is good but with a rapidly growing population and limited land what is important is a policy to create jobs. I have seen nothing from DPP on job creation. Mr Mussa Minister of Labour is mistaken to think that Community Colleges will create jobs.

  41. Agalu inu et? Mukadyapo mumafuna mudziwoneka ngati wodzitsata. Ma demo basi, even kuphwanya office ya Beam’yo

  42. Michael Usi or manganya better close his mouth if he thinks the who Malawi can bow to his drammas. We know he is a Dpp dramatist and therefore anything said by a drammatist is not serious at all.

  43. It just shows who has paid you mtambo,and how immaturity you are. Kunali anzako komweko anapanga resign mwakachetechete, kkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk tikuonera pa 13

  44. If the Malawi police is allowed to act professionally then no lives with be lost as was the case with demonstrations organized by pro Lhomwe Kapito who masquerades as a member of CSO. During the 2011 demo’s government wanted to silence people with killings as is typical of DPP. I can say without fear of contradiction that after the brutal MCP regime DPP ranks second.

  45. mtambo approached chanco student to join the demo but to his disbeliefe, the students have said a big NO. WHAT A SHAME, MR MTAMBO. Just prepare to take ur relatives and children to go to the streats otherwise u ll b alone there. let me ask u r u going to give us money to buy food for our families? after demos, what next?

  46. I think its stupid and useless for mbewe and manganya to say people did not demonstrate when people were cashgating, people started demonstrating long before cashgate and if you think its not right well just shut up.your mouth and be at home. Geting and using money meant for hiv for something other than hiv relataed is cashgating as well. U are part of blue we know that but God is watching you as well. Idiots

  47. a John Chindere kaniso nanu mumamudziwa kuti ndi hule lalimuna Manganyayu.ndipo ameneyi sakuyenela kumakamba za edzi chifukwa ndiyemwe akufalitsa matendawa.kukakhala kuba ADRA ingopulumukila kuti imayendela madonors,bwenzi pano itatha kalekale kulowa bankrupt.
    He is morally bankrupt just a loud mouth

  48. Kikikiki Police ndiye yaneneratu kuti ndiyokonzeka ndipo will not hesitate to use force (within limit of law) to protect life and property of innocent citizens. Didnt they say the same during the July 20 demos? Basop!

  49. Achina manganya adya mabanzi, akuti cso’s were not demostrating after cashgate scandal, have they forgoten that we were once told to put on black atires? Were these not demostrations? And he even said 5 million is not much money worth matching, do u mean that we hav to wait until it accumulate up to 5 billion? Y were u busy condeming the same CSO’S when they were supporting federalism, kodi umazitenga wanzeru kwambiri eti? Manganya panga za tikufelanji zakozo zonyekhula pa gulu zo.

  50. Mbewe & Usi u dnt knw wat u tok ngati iwe mwanganya watopa ndikupanga ma drama bwanji ukakale mu depot. U too guyz tikumana after our demo tikulangani muonaso. Nanga iwe mwanganya paja umadyeraso ku NAC eti tikulanga. Dnt eva try to coments u too ba——-.

  51. Mine is a question, mukuti kale zimalakwika koma kunalibe mademo lero zalakwika mukuti tisapange mademo coz dzulo zitalakwika sitinapange mademo…kodi amene akufunika kusintha mentality yake ndani pamenepa?

  52. MBEWE IS TALKIN ABOUT DIALOGUE,DIALOGUE WHITH WHO?DIALOGUE WITH ARROGANT MUTHARIKA’S WIFE?DIALOGUE WITH APM WHO USES NACMONEY TO BRIBE AND CORRUPT JOURNALISTS?MR USI U R JUST PRO DPP LEARN TO BE NEAUTRAL.INFACT WE R MARCHING FOR BAD GOVERNANCE NOT ONLY AGAINST CORRUPTING PRESSMEN.U WANT TO MISLEAD POPULACE THAT OUR MARCH CENTRES ON BEAM? NO NOT AT ALL BUT GENERAL BAD GOVERNANCE.HOWEVER, A PLACARD WITH TITLE,”APM CORRUPTS JOURNALISTS “WILL BE THERE .SO DR MBEWE AS A BOOTLICKIN EXPART U SEE ROOM 4 DIALOGUE?

  53. Mbewe and Manganya,or whatever they call you, must be very stupid, how could you ask such a foolish question. Where were you when master Bingu,APM, and the rest of Dpp top officials were looting government money just about 2 years ago? I don’t support unnecessary demos but at the same time we shouldn’t condone the wrongs of today because it’s our brothers or tribes-men who are doing those wrongs. If you want to be the view or the voice which people should hear and reason then stop covering those doing wrong to our country even though you’re a beneficially of that wrong-doing. Maybe you think we’re stupid as you are and don’t know that this country has been in the hands of looters since the dawn of democracy, do you think if APM was as innocent as he preach, would he leave his profession in the U S and come back home immediately after his brother was handed a hot seat by another crook Mluzi?Do you think donors and 64% of Malawians don’t know the main architects and culprits of cash gate are the ones back in the government today? We shouldn’t support the stealing of government money by any administration including JB’s but why this current administration and its sidekicks are saying our suffering today is only as a result of the 13billion looted by the previous government,what about the 92billion? If these so called Mbewe and Usi are standing for the truth then they should blame all the ills affecting our society and causing so much suffering especially to the disadvantaged population of this country regardless of who did it or when don’t just talk because your stomachs are full you bastards. Why are you so stupid that when you get a piece from the looters then you turn around start accusing those who stand up for people who are suffering? Where’s LICIOUS BANDA today? Is he silent because his boy-master joined the looters of today and he’s getting a pass of a piece of cake? Where’s this world going? Where’s the love, honesty, heart -felt for those in pain and suffering? How can you live in a world where your monthly salary is equal to two packets of sugar yet those you voted in power are enjoying life above limit while you and your children are bleeding to death and they just passing-by.

  54. Usi working with adra should have know how important NAC funds are. Him being a lomwe should not mislead the nation. Mwayamba matukutuku kwambiri that’s y anakutibula. Mwayamba kuzimva kuti anzeru ndinu and u feel u can speak for the Nation. Adra should look in ur contract critically.

  55. The demos nowadays have lost value and logic because they are jst being organised on very petty issues. You can see that the CSOs will spend more than what they wish to secure. In my opinion, the cso directors jst want to gather recognition so that they should be taken care of in the next gvt like what has hapened to Voice Mhone. Anyway go ahead, but me & my family will be in doors as it will be pouring heavilly as per forecast of Met. Dptmnt.

  56. Apa palibe concrete reason yopangira ma demonstration’s…..rather than coming up with ideas,which are going to help the government during this hard times….malawians we have to learn to pull each other up not pushing each other down….

  57. Activist Go A Head With Demos So That Malawians Should Not Taken 4 Granted. I We Usi, Kani Ndiwe Wautsilu Chonchi Together With Mbewe,isa!!

  58. I find it quite misguiding to refer the nacgate to cashgate(both 20bn and 92bn). In the first place the cashgates were happenning without absolute authority, and yet the nacgate is using powerful evident names. Secondly cashgate was not known until those three or four bullets, yet nacgate has taken a whistle blower. It is not befitting to accuse the CSO of not acting during cashgate when there was no blown whistle through out the period the malpractice was taking place. And in the present scenarion CSO are acting upon information revealed. If anything those apportioning the blame should direct it at NIB, Police and FIBB because these are the people or oirganisation that failed us, and not the CSO’s. GUYS SOBER UP

  59. Now I can see that Usi was against the government of JOICE Banda.Why’s he talking like that just now and yet he had a lecture when woman Banda was ruling? Ooogh paja nayenso individual mulomwe,ok lets wait and C

  60. Usi wagulidwa ndani sakudziwa hule lalimuna iwe. Kukonda kuona maliseche azimayi basi. Mbuzi mbuzi mbuzi.

  61. Fellow Malawians when are we going to wake up from this abuse? Government responsibility is to provide essential service delivery. No water and Electricity we take it normal Malawians wake up.. We dont have medecine in the clincs and we keep quiet when are we going to wake up? Lets learn from our friends from south africa we need more service delivery protests. Now there is Cholera in Blantyre because there is no water and we are busy defending the government. Running a country is serious business we dont need excuses

  62. who is utsi after all to tell the natiion not to carry on with demons. Ngati wadya kalingonda wa mathanyula ungokhala pansi. Ukandidati unakukanika chifukwa ukukhala ngati unadwalapo chakumutu

  63. So”what if you go on demons traiting and deliver your petition and govt choose or fail to address the silly concerns?”Wise up.

    We have the opposition parties in Malawi responsible for those issues,so take to task the opposition if u feel govt is not delivering.

    If i recall very well on 20 July it was poor and ordinary Malawians who died demonstrating,you talk whilst in office eating donor money in the name of advocating what what….shit you know.This tym go yourself and your company of cartels,we will just be watching on the outside.

    Don’t brainwash Malawians you devils’ advocates,go to Hell,i say go to HELL.

  64. Manganya your quite stupid,your the one confused bcz we have a number of issues to raise not only one as you saying.Dont you see that Malawi is directionless?We are not employed by ADRA so leave us alone its our rights to demonstrate if things are not going well.

  65. I commend the police. That is how a professional force should be perceiving the demos. It shows to some extent that our police force is serving the people or country and not an individual president or govt of the day.

    As long as the demo organisers have complied with the procedures for holding such demos, nobody should be crying foul for people exercising their human rights!!

  66. i don’t know who is behind these people.After the demo,for them would have gain some thing, more especially money and local malawians will remain poor.If you want to assist them becoming rich go ahead.But avoid being a victim of the day.Many thanks it is your right to do so,but a right has got a responsibility in.

  67. These are simple fools, who have no understanding of national priorities and have no interest to pursue genuine national agenda. These are works of PP and tumbukas. Personal agenda indeed. Wait and see- they will match on their own!

  68. Khani ndiyakuti mukubisa za mtundu wanu uchilomwe, Steve maseya home boy to mutharika tiyembekeze kuti atiuza chiyani angokoka alomwe amzake fotseke angulu kunyasa pakamwa

  69. SHAAAAAA…THERE IS NOTHING INTELLIGENT MANGANYA CAN SAY. WHERE DO YOU COME FROM, MANGANYA. YOU ARE JUST AS ROTTEN. YOU CANT CRITICIZE YOUR OWN LOMWE, CAN YOU?

  70. DR.MBEWE YOU ARE A DOCTOR, BEING A DOCTOR YOU KNOW VERY WELL THAT THE MONEY WAS MET FOR HIV/AIDS PEOPLE, THEN YOU ARE TELLING MALAWIANS THAT YOU HAVE NO INTEREST WITH SICK PEOPLE, YOU WANT THEM TO DIE, THINK TWICE DOCTOR, MAY GOD CHANGE YOU AND BLESS YOU + AMEN +

  71. A Usi why this mess? People expect better thinking from you and not this corrupt approach. Do not soil your decent reputation. Keep far from unfruitful Muds. Be cross to it if you are a sower.

  72. I hope utsi has run out of point. utsi if u are not careful u are going to kill your future. ask bill, osaweta and phungu will tell u how dirty politics is

  73. Where were these two intelligent fellows when kids went on the streets ? Where were these fellows when the money was being found in the boots? Next time please teach people what peaceful demonstrations are. You can go ahead with your demos, its your right but remember to be responsible. Usi and Mbewe remember to respect other peoples views in a democratic environment. You don’t agree with their stand stay home because they may as well have reservations on other things you believe in but they choose to respect your reasoning. The problem in Malawi is that nonsense is nonsense when you are the object whilst the same is sense when you are the subject.

  74. This is wat Pipo wanted & voted for,I don’t tink ders somting to Demonstrate bcz its wat U choose.So to hell wit U.

  75. don’t say Malawians are not happy with current admn nop, cause I am also Malawians and all is well with me as far as this government is concerned. those that find broblem with admn, them are broblem

  76. Inu a manganya ndi Mbewe, negative mukukhuta ingokhalani chefs. We know you are all lhomwes but this country is not only for you lhomwes. Which school did you go to? It seems you got the job through your plays and Mbewe through traditional herbs. You cannot put forward those comments as if you don’t know the economic problems Malawians are facing. When you are on TV or radio, consider Malawi first not your tribe or self aggrandizement.

  77. Include the reduction of fuel prices in your demands. And was this not the same mannganya who was publicly lecturing in streets during the JB’s regime? We thought he cared for justice but to the contrary he was only being used by the DPP in order to bring down amayi so that they could continue stealing from NAC no wonder we don’t develop.

  78. Akuluakulu ndifunse nawo,kodi Undule Mwakasungula alipo?Wangoti ziii bwanji?Was my man during Bingu’s tenure in office.

  79. Abale tiyeni tiziwonesesa pochota demo osamangosatira ziri zonse.Anthu awa akulira chifukwa Mutharika sanapase maudindo.Bwanj cashgaie munali kuti anthu inu zopusa basi.

  80. its a sign that people have lost hope in our politicians and demonstrations should act as a wake up call to all those who love to take advantage of power to trample on the ordinary citizens

  81. Ambewe mfundo zanuzo mpana kuitanitsa atolankhani. Inunso ndiye kayatu. Kapena munapasidwa ndalama kuti mulankhuletu ndi pitala. Polish your speech Mbewe be4 inviting press conference ulibe mfundo. Bola usi ngakhale nayenso sakulemekeza kwambili zaufulu.

  82. A usi ndi a mbewe khalani chete ili ndi dziko nkhanga zikuwona ask fred ndala where is he tangojoinani ndale ku dpp mumalo mongotisokosela after all come 2019 dpp will not win

  83. Before you criticize the CSO look at the circumstances that have led them to hold the demonstrations. Global fund has stopped funding Nac because of the mess at the organisation and you are here accusing the demos. Let them hold the demos it is their right. If you talk of cashgate. Plundering of resources started way back during the reign of the Big Kahuna. Demos were there.

  84. Not everything that Manganya say or do is right. His arguments are baseless.
    Mbewe is not reasonable to ask about CSO’s whereabouts during cashgate. Unless they are caught thiefs and theft can not be known.shupiti thinking, go back to xool.

  85. Manganya is mulhako so there is nothing he can do. So people must leave beautify Malawi to use HIV money yet nurses organization was not given money to buy things which were supposed to be used for their protection? So providing food and transport for chiefs for mulhako is now HIV related? Manganya wandikhumudwitsa. U are a fool

  86. Can u give me assurance, after the demonstrations ndalama zaku NAC’ ko ndiye zidzabwenzedwa pompopompo? Musatinamize, inuyo mudzapenzapo ma allowance pena enafe tidzangoguba nawo popanda cholowa! Koma pa Nyasaland!

  87. Mtamboyu tingopangana nae kuti chimene chizawonongeke mlandu azayankhe ndiyeyo, .Apolisi patsikuli muzangonyamula ndodo basi, mfuti azanyamule mtamboyo, azizaopseza akuba amzakewo.kutereku wagwirizana ndi timbava tinzake ncholinga azizaba mashop athuwa.akufuna azatsokoneze bznes ntaunimu.kodi anali kuti pamene 20bil imabedwa?anali kuti pamene ama amagawa ving’ombe? Ufa?kukwatsegulira tower ku mulanje boarder?daily moving?kodi mwina wabwera july yemweyu mudziko lathuli?apm umusiye alongolore atopa ameneyo.inu ab6a uyu ndi kafucheche musavùtike nae,mkaka zimwani akhaula ameneyu.bwanji osawuza mai akewo amene anaba ndalama za boma akawagwire anthuo cìfukwa akuwaziwa.kungompatsa peter busy ndi zopusa.ng’ona

  88. U hav denied silver(money) to stop demos. And lead,Pb (bullets) will strike into fresh shud u or any of u misbehave. To meet in the streets!

  89. Mbewe walandira banzi ndipo ndi wa DPP and mlomwe
    Usi kwawo ndi ku Mulanje therefore mlomwe.
    Palibe chanzeru chimene mlomwe anganene kwa mlomwe mnzake.
    Okuba dzira akuti sanabe kanthu. Akuti K5 million (Beam) ndi K9.4 million (mulakho) si ndalama kanthu. Ayiwala kuti DPP is just testing the ground for how to steal more.
    Okuba dzira tsiku lina azaba ng’ombe ndithu.
    Mbewe ndi Usi, to Demonstrate is our DEMOCRATICAL RIGHT.
    Ngati simukugwirizana nazo, ikatha demoyi, start processing the amendment of the Constitution to Remove the Right to Demonstrate in the Constitution.
    Stupid Lomwe pipo. No Offense.

  90. Manganya ndi mlhomwe & what do u expect frm him.Such a useless creature koma kuziyenereza nde kwake.Amazitenga ngati kuti ndi influatial figure.Nde poti to us malawians nthabwala ndi mfundo timatenga zolankhula za manganya ngati mfundo.Ndim’mene tinaonongera dziko ndi atcheya.wake fellow malawians.

  91. Usi ma Pray ako ndinasiya kumawakonda chifukwa unayamba kuonetsela the side U belong, ngati wazisudzo usamaonetsele mbali if u wish to be more populer, much as we understand u are from lomwe Belt, dont mislead us, Mbewe, were u not in Malawi when in Joyce B admn when pple matched carrying the pracurds demanding JB to resighn just bcoz ofTeachers ariaz cachgate, cashgate started with Bingu admn and it even went ahead in mamas admin to end up in Peter proscuting the very same pple, masten arrested, so udzilankhula ngati udali konkuno kapena mwabwela akuluwa atathandizidwa ndi Frag kuti awine? Shame!!!. Be Forwad Malawians matchday 13 Janus15, mkamwa mopanda manomo uluma bwa?

  92. Palibe zonyengelela apa amanganya akupanitsani sikono lekani anthu akumwera chilichose chimakhala chabwino look at them mbewe and usi onse alomwe munganene chiyani chosakomera petro inu

  93. Empty, geedy organisations makes a lot of noise.go into the streets but you will achieve nothing.Intelligent Malawians will not help you to achieve your personal interests.

  94. After your demos pliz gives us a detailed report on what you have gained & achieved!
    Mulebe manyazi! Kudyela dzina la ufulu wanthu pamene mukupanga ndalama zokadya ndi mabanja anu!
    Zamanyazi!!

  95. Mbewes are lomwes, what do you expect from him? Shut up you waste of space! Who takes Michael Usi seroously? The man is after money. Have you seen a dogs behaviour when i bone or piece if meat is waved in front of it? Thats how i view michel Usis behaviour when he sees money, it doesnt realy matter how dirty the money is.

  96. So we r demonstrating against NACs disbursement of fund to non conventional orgnz??huh?..u v sum personal interests indeed..u must b stupid u organisers!

  97. Thumbs up to CSOs organising the demos. Don’t waste time with Manganya and Mbewe. Bambo wa sikonoyo ndi mbeweyo apatsidwa sikono. That’s why they are paraded on MBC like idiots. Slaves! Kodi Manganya ka mlhomwe kakafupi kaja? ha!ha!ha! hehedee!!!

  98. Zikupanga mtambo sizikusiyana ndi zomwe apanga pa golomoti road kuchosa ma carvet a bridge lero bridge yagwa ndiye adusa kuti. Iam not suprised with his behevior he did the same during ELECTION results do you remember CHRR its no longer nation issue this is personal

  99. Who is Mikel Usi ? Is he the same comedian who wanted to rape one of lady who is in the group he does his comedies ?
    This guy was once involved into abusing and touching private parts of one of the lady who is in his comedy group. This is the time that the law should take it’s course , he is getting used abusing our Malawian women.
    Just arrest this idiot this time as the judicial strike is over.

  100. Mbewe & Usi you r one of the bad leaders who don’t wish malawi good, if we want to dev.let’s not repeat same mistakes. why not advise the gvt not to follow de same ways that led malawi into problems.if u hav money to feed ur families is not de same with all malawians. why behaving stupidly malawi is not only u,getrude,mulakho and peter is for all malawians,had it been u advise de president and his gvt before all these couldn’t reach this extent.nawenso getrude being president’s wife is not an advantage to misuse gvt resources sizambumbatu is.

  101. Let them go to the streets and hold demonstrations. At the end of the day they should tell us what they have achieved. These are greedy people. Adzafa imfa yowawa.

  102. Waste of time and energy, where were you when JB and friends were busy stealing our money. Why can’t you demostrate so that JB should return and held acountable for the cashgate money she is busy spending outside all these months, where do you thinkl she got those monies she is spending? Mbuzi ,paja ndinu ajawo, azawo a bwande

  103. This is a new Malawi, leave them, its their right, the only problem here is that, they are the same people who were in the Joyce Banda government stealing money. They are hypocrites. I love my country and family, I cant waste time to go on street, but who ever wants can go as that is every person ‘s right and choice. God bless Malawi

  104. Malawians r nt happy wth the current leadership. Its their rights to protest. The country is fallng apart into tumbuka nation, Chewa nation ad yao or lomwe nation. Its just the begining
