Malawi police say no live bullet was used in Nselema
Malawi police in the Eastern Region have set the record straight that no single shot was fired when Democrtaic Progressive Party (DPP) and its political bedfellows United Democratic Front (UDF) thugs blocked roads to stop State Vice-President and Tonse Alliance running mate Saulos Chilima from going to Ngokwe, Ntaja and other places in Machinga on Friday.
Following the incident, the Vice President cancelled his rallies and returned halfway before Nselema, technically meaning that there was no any showdown between his security and the DPP/UDF supporters.
DPP-UDF running mate Atupele Muluzi and former vice-president Cassim Chilumpha, who is also Assembly for Democracy and Development (ADD) have separately accused Chilima that his bodyguards used live bullets and shot people.
However, Eastern Region police spokesperson Joseph Sauka has refuted these reports, clarifying that Chilima’s bodyguards did not reach Nselema and that no gun was used by the police who were deployed to Nselema.
“No live bullet was used. No gun was used. The only incident we had was that Nselema police used one teargas canister to disperse DPP/UDF supporters. This affected a lady but she is fine.
“The canister hit a man on the leg. He is fine too. In all this, there was no involvement of police from Chilima’s security detail,” said Sauka in an interview with Zodiak Brodcasting Station.
Asked to comment on the matter, UTM publicity secretary Chidanti Malunga said both Atupele Muluzi and Chilumpha are either being petty or largely uninformed.
Malunga said ruling a country is not by stoning, insulting or hacking people.
Master Dicks Mfune, a peace, security and conflict resolution expert at Chancellor College—a constituent college of the University of Malawi, has said there are indications that DPP-UDF Alliance are the architect of the violence.
He said: “They are creating anarchy so that the country becomes insecure and a State of Emergency is declared.
Youth-Decide Campaign team leader Charles Kajoloweka said in a statement madeavailable to Nyasa Timea that as the country counts down to the fresh presidential election, political intolerance and thuggery pose a worrying threat to a peaceful and credible election.
Reads the statement he signed: “Most disturbingly, authorities, including President Peter Mutharika, Minister of Homeland Security and the police, paradoxically remain unresponsive, unmoved, elusive and absent despite rising calls for law and order.
“The absence of decisive leadership to clamp down on the horrifying wave of criminal terror causes deadening concern and only nourishes public fears that the perpetrators could be agents of the ruling elite.”

Now the expired Chilumpha and arrogant Muluzi must apologise to the VP and the nation for spreading lies and character assassination. NOW !! Thank you.
That`s very true
Useless leaders Atupele ndi Chilumpha zoti Chilima anauza mabodyguard aombere anthu munazitenga kuti.Choncho mufuna upulezidenti wakuti wa kumalawi kapena wa kwa akapoloma.simuzakhala pulezidenti a Atupele mukuxitemberera and you are not fit for presidency ndithu.Very careless and regionalistic and interested in tribalusm and religion use of islam
Like father like son, ATUPELE carelessly opens his mouth anyhow just like his dad Bakili Muluzi and this most illiterate young MP FYNESS MGONJWA. What is wrong with people of Machinga? What is wrong with Dr Cassim Chilumpha for engaging in propaganda and cheap politics? If this what young Atupele calls issue based politics?
Chilima ndi chakwera akutsogozedwa ndi wa mmwambamwamba.Nkhalamba ziwiri sizingaononge tsogolo lathu la ana athu ngoo.Apo bii zizatisiya ife tikunjoya chakwera govt.The devil is defeated in the name of Jesus .Amen
Nanga zimene amankhula mwana wa buluzi uja amazitenga kuti. Bamboo ako anatha ma were a azimai Ku chiradzulo. Nawe wa joins ya ma albino.
Che Atupele and Chilumpha muti njibwano? Kumangoyankhula za nkutu basi kuti mupeze sympathy mwagwa nayo, DPP/UDF is going down whether u like it or not
Kicks of a dying horse, they are desperate but time is not on their side
KKKK ANYA
Atupele needs some sense as well………
Now, we shall see how Atupele and Cassim will react. The devil has been shamed.
Blame it on useless nyasatimes reporters. Pictures of Chilima stranded on the road were seen in the media and he did not even get to the said place but you went ahead to write the story without verification. Shame on you idiots. Paid to write fake news
Shity reports so how much did they pay you
So where did all these stories of shooting Atupere and his friends are spreading came from.
Ma Cadet mwamva kuchokera kwa ma Cadet anzanu ovala zipewa ,chocho mumuuze mwana wa njoka ung’onoung’ono ,kuti palibe adaombeledwa ku Mangochi atsamakhale ndi mphuma ngati atate a che ayi, tikamati utsogoleri umafuna kudekha otsati iziii, pano wapanga manyadzi
Kunamiza ana? Anthuwo anaziwombela Okha? Who carries live bullets in Malawi? Village Jemusi or trigger happy Malawi police? Absorbing yourselves of responsibility,protecting each other while people suffer. The people that got shot in Mzuzu, none got compensated. That is the Malawi we live in.
cadets carry live bullets in Malawi
@irresponsible opposition……. Malawi lost alot of Donor support that year when the Donors withdrew Aid because of DPP’s Dictator tendencies of Bingu.
Now his brother Peter wishes to do the same.
What is this other idiotic former vice president Qassim Chilumpha saying? Is he trying to appease the frail APM? He knows that APMs days in life are numbered and that when he dies udf will revenge on what Bingu did to udf in 2005. That is why all udf functionaries are excited about.
Atleast the truth come out
People were severely injured. Blood was spilt just as Chakwera said ‘we will spill blood”. Chilima anakhetsa mwazi. He should not have done that.
Foseki why block roads and carry Zikwange
Atupele and Chilumpha should apologise
Kodi Atu information anatoyitenda kuti? Paja ndi Mwana wa Ntcheya…Ndie boza ndi Khalidwe lawo …Zikakhala za Akasimu mmm …Azingolemba mabukhu ndiziphuzilira Business Law …Kodi Treason ya Bingu ija milandu inatha?Too much Coca-Cola can affect the Brain ..
.Ati titokhalira kumwa Coca-Cola Boma silikundipasa ndalama …Maboza okho Okha .
I feel sorry for Atupele. He thinks after speaking
Atupele has verbal diarrhea cannot trust anything he says always lies. DPP is going to spend Billions on this road, Billions on this University, Billions on new housing, Billions in new schools, will reduce price of fertilizer, reduce electricity, everyone to have fresh water every day new on going diarrhea. Let the President come and speak.
Ok so where did Atu the baby got the message that Chilima’s bodyguards shot three people who are fighting for their lives in the hospitals?This shows baby and his cronies that his father Principal Thief Bakili Elleson Muluzi is busy staging this thuggery in order to sow seeds of discord thinking that in doing so the elections will be postponed. He wants to frustrate the elections because he knows that he has case to answer genuinely. Give us our MK1.7 billion plus interest over the past 15 years and see how it feels to steal from your own people after you sold every company that MCP had instituted in Malawi like PVHO, MDC, Spearhead, MITCO, Cold Storage, BAT, Berec, MDI, MMM, Malawi Railways, Crown Fashions, David Whitehead, GRAMIL, AGRIMAL, ADMARC Leather & Luggage, Air Malawi, ESCOM just to mention a few. The writting is on the wall you two families. You are going down together. You thought that Malawi is your plaza in Machinga or Thyolo isn’t it? SKC is not your size and he will trim you to your size. See if some of you would not end up in prison legitimately. As much as you try to suffocate the winds of change, know that as the wind blows from the south to the north, west to east, you are going down. SKC has upped the game of politics in Malawi and its not for the faint hearted people like you who rule by hook or crook. For sure you are going down hard this time. Viva SKC/LMC. Viva UTMCP!!
Nde mukuti bwanji mbuli za udf/dpp?
Chilima has to be dragged to ICC for ordering a shooting at the malawians in Machinga. Phuma a Chilima.
@Yona Gondwe…, Cadet you do not trust Malawi’s Courts. If you read the article Chilima shot no one NOR did his Police detail it was FAKE NEWS.
Welengani Statement from Police spokesman from Eastern Region….No live bullets were used…
So it follows that the police never raped any woman in Nsudwe
No. The regional MPS source is different from the one who originated “Nsundwe report”. Each case must be looked at its own merit. There are cadet policemen as well as ethical policemen. Have you ever heard of ballistic tests, this police regional office knows that the case has no evidence of such at the scene of incident.
Good question
