Martha Chizuma – New ACB Director

She was automatically appointed Commissioner for the government agencies by virtue of being Ombudsman, a post she is leaving to take up the task of ACB Director.

Chizuma was hired as Ombudsman on 1st December 2015.

Writing on her official Facebook page, Chizuma said she looks back at the last 5 years 6 months with nothing but a sense of great gratitude for all the support rendered to her.

“The time has come to to step into a new career path. I depart with warm memories of my time in the Office of the Ombudsman, at Police at MHRC and Prison.

“I leave having learnt a lot from amazing group of people who have the right heart for this country,” she posted.

She also took time to thank Malawians for trusting and allowing her to head graft bursting body.

She is the first woman to serve as ACB Director.

“Thank you for the prayers, support, the criticism ( yes we needed it and welcomed it) and encouragement. I shall forever remain grateful for this” she added.

We congratulate you our esteemed Madam for your appointment as the Head of ACB and much appreciation for your wonderful work at the former office to ensure rule of law prevails.

Malawi has great expectations from you Madam Martha Chizuma for the ACB Czar position. This rotten system of corruption which has tarnished by evil people needs to be sanitized by your handwork. You have the support for every Malawian who wants to see changes just like me. Let every penny which thieves in government be followed and refunded back into Government Account number one and be used for it’s intended purpose.

Honeymoon is over to all thieves and corrupt Asians. Go Martha Go and stripped every stolen penny from their pockets

Two words describe Martha while at ACB: Courage and Determination. Can most women begin emulating Martha!!!!!!!
