MEC’s Kalonga was running a secret account at Malawi Savings Bank -Audit

October 6, 2015 Nyasa Times Reporter 113 Comments

Malawi Electoral Commission (MEC) chief executive officer Willie Kalonga operated a secret account at Malawi Savings Bank (MSB) which was used for suspected cashgate activities, according to a special investigative audit conducted following allegations of financial mismanagement and fraud.

Kalonga: Refuses to comment, saying the audit is not final

The fraud allegations in the report before the Secretary to the Treasury and donor community, shows Kalonga had access to K118, 667,404.44 and made internal transfers between April 2014 to February 2015 not indicated with accounts transferred to in cashbooks.

A special secret code named CEO Account at MSB opened in March 2014 number 1024883104001 was overdrawn by K8, 093,858.33 on 31/12/2014 in the bank while many transacts were not entered in the cashbook which was overdrawn by K33,819,387.69.

The abuse on the account cost the public K20, 634,732.20 in accumulated bank charges and interest which were also missing in the cashbook.

MEC chairperson Maxon Mbendera, who is also a judge of the Malawi Supreme Court of Appeal, was a recipient of the mysterious cash transfers which the management of the electoral body failed to produce documentation detailing purpose of payment.

Kalonga’s account received K37, 191,268.37 of the transfers between 14/07/2014 to 08/10/2014 with no proper accounting records and payments, the audit report reads.

“We have noted the observation and promise to make a thorough follow up to trace the documents to account for the transferred funds. We believe that weakness in recording and keeping of records might have caused the event,” MEC management defended their position when they responded to the audit query.

MEC further blamed newly recruited staff in accounts who did not receive orientation training in public accounting system training.

“All the experienced staff were redeployed to non-financial duties after the fraud scandal that was reported by private auditors in the past,” MEC was quoted verbatim in its defence.

“Kalonga is accused of wasting public resources under the pretext that MEC is an independent corporate body as if it operates on its own generated income,” he report notes.

Kalonga has since refused to comment saying the audit report is not final.

Ministry of Finance, which carried out the audit through the Central Audit Unit, explained this week the audit was carried “because MEC’s large budget vis a vis the national budget posed a higher fiscal risk”.

On procurement, the auditors reported that they did not find evidence of a claim of payment for supply of goods by a Tanzanian company, SCI, amounting to K16.6 million; goods procured outside procurement plan and budget amounting to K40.6 million and procurement without Office of the Director of Public Procurement amounting to K526.6 million.

  1. Ichoicho,vengeance is for the Lord not yours. Be careful about getting so emotional about national issues unless if you are personally involved in those who lost the election. And if you are, I would encourage you to sober up and objectively examine why your side really lost. No single person can influence results from over 4,000 centers.it is also immature to project and Attribute your failures on other people.You will never improve.

  2. Zondiwe.I assure you Willy is the most trusted and reliable CEO Malawi has. The problem is that we trust these online reports. The audit report which this reporter is extracting information is not final as commented by the Commission itself. People here are comment out of hatred not reality. Let me remind you, during the JB rule there came unfinished audit of 96 billion on DPP. Why did the PP government not arrest the concerned culprits.? The answer is the report was not final. Ethics of audit allows the culprit to respond. So the non responded audit report is the one which nyasatimes is using now. Let’s be honest guys. Zinazi tiziona in both angles. Don’t depend a ine sided report. Thats unprofessional. How on earth can Willy bit the whole government financial system for him to open a secret account and treasury be depositing money into that? If this is true then it should be a chain. Treasury people should be involved. Ambuye since the mphwiyo cash gate ndalama sizingatuluke chisawawa as being alleged here. Aaaaaa never!!! Willy is clean in this scam. And be assured Willy is clean. No doubt about that.

  3. 106, we are talking about huge amounts of government money disappearing, and the one responsible being Willie Kalonga. You worked with him and did not know him.
    His purported infidelity disqualifies him from being one of the best CEOs Malawi has ever seen. Malawi is in need of trusted and reliable people at the top, and if Mr Kalonga fails the test, it will be his fault.
    You do not have to work with someone to know them. You only have to hear about their good works.
    Our works follow us wherever we go. This is what matters. Other people will share our story, and if it is one of dishonesty, then we are finished.
    Malawians, learn to call a spade a spade.

  4. If this is true then Malawi is finished. Just imagine the whole SC being involved in these messy dealings. Whom can we trust now?

  5. Chifwirimbwiti thumbs up. I agree with you. I once worked with this Willy here in Lilongwe. I can rate him as the best TOP 3 CEO Malawi has ever had. Willy is a Cabinet Material. the guy is genius. yes he can have some weaknesses. but his positives will definitely outweigh his weaknesses. lets be honest guys. this financial scam is just fake just to tarnish his image. those despising comments are from people who never worked closely with him.

  7. iwe highly favoured , ngati mec chair ali ambuyako ukonzeke kukawawona ku ICU soon. be informed that time is drawing closer and closer for this chief thief in the just ended general elections to be punished. This animal mbendera can not go scot free regarding the heinous affliction he deliberately, because of his greedy for money inflicted on the malawi populace. so its pay back time. walupanga amanya ndi lupanga lomwelo.

  8. highly favoured educate us if mec uses a different system than the ones we all know what’s so special about Mec’s accounting system . An audit is an audit its has its own standards unless you have better audit systems . Any system is bound it be abused and this system has been abuse above all mec doesn’t havery their own system rather than reconciliation of payments and expenses so don’t take us for fools all cheques for mec should originate from treasury . Excess funds and all cash should be returned to account number 1 so what are you talking about .

  9. Stealing is fully entrenched in Malawi, even lawyers are thieves, so how can the country develop with so many greedy people? There is need for death sentence for all thieves. It is disgusting how state resources are misused by greedy assholes.

  10. May God forgive Nyasatimes & everyone who is speaking bad about Mec’s Chair & CEO. Reading through your comments really shows that you dont know MEC’s accounting system nor do you understand an audit process. My advise to Nyasatimes: try to be a bit more professional when publishing news. As for the less knowledgeable crew, only comment on issues that you believe you understand & are an expert at. Otherwise, talk is cheap; have facts & not just opinions.

  11. What is the point of the death penalty if such abuse of public office is tolerated with redeployment. Such people should be tried quickly with the evidence at hand and hung.

  12. If indeed Justice Mbendera and Mr Kalonga were involved in these funny deals, then their credibility is in tatters, especially Mbendera as he is a Judge .
    What a pity.

  14. a Khuere #95, you don’t know MEC system just like myself I have done a thorough investigation.. how can the whole organization be cheated by a secret account by one man. let me tell you this though simundimvera coz of your hatred on Willy. take this. during election MEC is exempeted im many things including panseu. amachita kupatsidwa makalata oti athamange mmene angafunire panseu. a traffic asawayimitse kapena kuwalipilitsa. why? coz during elections zimafunika zambiri mwachangu , nthawi ija imachepa. now let me go back to these so called secrete account. these account is not secret as you allege here. even a kubomawo ngakhalenso ma donors amadziwa. these account is signed by not only Willy but many including commissioners. final approaval yoti ndalama zilipilidwe ku ma staff or ma suppliers amapanga approve ma commissioners, omwe ali mu committee ya finance and admin. approval ya willy is not enough for a cheque to be cleared by a bank. pitani ku MEC konko mukapange verify mau angawa. ulipo apa ndi udani against Willy. Nyasa times yomweyi towards election alleged Mbendera deposited 100 thousand ku account ya MCP. lero mukuti mbendera ndi willy ndi wa DPP timve ziti? tafufuzani kaye nkhani zanuzo before you publish mukuwayipitsira mbiri ana ayini ake. akukanthani mulungu a kanyimbi inu.

  16. achifwirimbwiti nanunso ndiakuba kodi mulipo ambiri eti zausilu osangokhala ngati mulibe chonena bwanji hard working yake ili pati kalongayo alhomwe anabera mavoti iye ali ku mec konko uzikati ndi olimbikira ntchito mbabva.

  17. These revelations makes believe that as Malawians we are a rich country. With all thrse billions siphoned by individuals we would have been somewhere up the worth ranking ladder. Usually people who steal and cheat are hard working people and so goes the day with noonr daring to question. If Malawi is really serious on eliminating corruption then we should do so with all institutions. Please hire an independent international audit firm to do this job. We should audit institutions such as escom, all water boards, roads authority etc. After that we should check the private sector as well. You see…the most serious corruption that detains Malawi in poverty cells is happening in private sector institutions. When costs for importing rawayerias are inflated …its the consumer who bears the cost. When water treatment materials are imported af an exaggerated cost…its the consumer who bears the cost…and so goes the story with transformers at escom, and again cooking oil etc…

  18. I cry for my beloved Malawi. thats why things do not work. starting from health to education to agriculture yet we have well educated people. A failed state!!!!

  19. You may hate Williey as much as you can. but Know that he is the most intelligent, hardworking and professional CEO Mec has ever had. I challenge you even MEC staff will miss him. he is human being , just like all of us here. he might have some weakneses, kaya kupanga Zibwenzi kaya chani. that’s his private issue. inu simupanga zibwenzi kumeneko?. uyo nde munthuyo. honestly mwangomuda munthuyu. mumulira simunati. if there is someone akukutumani looking for CEO job at mec tell him or her that he or she should wait. Williy is there. Mwamulira. One CEO at a time. Last week munamulira CEO wa MBC (Sumbuleta) . the other week munamulira MRA CEO. lero mumulira Willy. mufuna ma CEO Onse mmalawi muno achotsedwe ntchito. inu ndi ma SAint kumeneko. mxiewwwww

  20. James Bond 007. A new movie “Licence to Steal”. That’s when you work for Malawi Government and it’s affiliate organisations. If people who are mandated to uphold the law are withholding it what more with the rest. A blockbuster.

  22. Ma rubbish business bring insecurity in Malawi. One day I will explain all the rubbish. Get rid of the rotten rubbish.

  23. BAMAMA JOYCE KWENDA
    I WANT TO EDUCATE YOU ON THE ISSUE DELOITE THAT THEY ARE FAR TO BE LISTED AS REPUTABLE AUDITORS. TAKE IT OR NOT IT IS A TRAINING CENTRE FOR MOST ACCOUNTANT THIEVES IN MALAWI AND THERE SEVERAL REASONS THAT I PERSONALLY CAN TELL THE GENERAL PUBLIC. I WAS FURTHER SHOCKED ONE PATICULAR DAY WHEN EVEN THE STATE PRESIDENT HIGHLY PRAISED THE NEW AUDITOR GENERAL THAT HE WORKED WITH THE PROFFESSINALS DELOITE AS AN ACCOUNTANT! ASK THE AD. GENERAL HIMSELF ABOUT HIS FAILURES AT MCA AS WELL AS MIM.MALAWIANS ARE OF DISGRACE INDEED BUT LET THE COUNTRY FURTHER GET ROTTEN.MALAWI’S ECONOMY WILL NEVER AND NEVER IMPROVE NO MATTER WHAT THE LEADERS COME IN SORRY.THIS COUNTRY IS USED TO GET FAST FORTUNES THAT DO NOT EVEN BELONG THEM. DELOITE IS THE ONE WHICH PREPARES FAKE ACCOUNTS OF FDH BANK AND WE CLEARLY ARE AWARE, SHIT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  26. Worry not son of Major 1.
    “The Lord will grant that the enemies who rise up against you will be defeated before you. They will come at you from one direction but flee from you in seven.”

  27. Nyasatimes kodi bwanji osangochita publish report yonseyo kuti aliyense awerenge payekha payekha mmalo momangonyotsola pamene yatchula amene simukuwafuna inuwo?
    Komanso paja anthu angapo afunsa kuti kodi ku MEC kulibe afinance department? Analikuti mmene anthuwa amapanga zemenezi.

  28. kkkkk credible elections with this mess and DDP is so proud that they stole elections shame now the time has begun Kenyata ukumva bwanji pamenepo

  29. Is Willie so powerful that he could fool the whole government machinery, and he is still in office today? What were the departments of Internal Audit and Finance doing? MEC is audited by Deloite , a very reputable firm. Couldn’t they have unearthed this scam?
    How did Kalonga convince the Accountant General to transfer government money into his account?
    How did MSB accept to open this account ?
    This story begs more questions than answers.

  30. Malawi is in trouble because she is full of evil and wicked people in the name of Willie Kalonga etc.

  31. Arrest them all, umboni upose pamenepa? Zuwa lachuluka ku kaki,Osanama zinthu sizili bwino. Msonkho umawawa kupeleka kwa ife ma business ang’onoang’ono. Wakuba amangidwe

  32. When chief election officer late George masanza husband to Hon olive masanza fired Willie Kalonga anthuwa Amati ndioipa read undp report of 2005 u Wil see undp warned about stopping funding mec there.was a great abuse of funds by Kalonga and commissioners then. Joyce knew what she. Doing by.putting Kalonga there. Late George masanza is vindicated today RIP

  33. Kalonga ndi anzako a DPP mind you la 40 likuyandikira remember your thoughts are not God’s. You won’t reach 2019 the punishment is jst near’ kaya muyisova

  34. That’s why Mbendela was quick to swear in the big pig while the ballots were rightfully being contested.
    I told you, even the lawyers who are meant to protect and administer people’s rights are corrupt.
    It is time to rise now.

  38. This disease is now far too serious and needs to be halted immediately at all costs, otherwise we shall have no country to talk about.

    It is as if no one cares. These thieves who steal are dismissed and within a few days they are in another big job.

    WE HAVE A NATIONAL CRISIS ON OUR HANDS AND WE ARE ALL TO BLAME FOR JUST SMILING AT THESE PLUNDERERS.

    THIS LOOTING HAS TO STOP.

    “CRY OUR BELOVED COUNTRY.”

  39. APM please fire and arrest 3 people at MEC Kalonga, Mbendera and Chimkwita basi problem solved at MEC

  41. Mutukwana mutopa. You will only be frustrated . Willie will not move out of that place. just imagine since he rejoined in 2012, tamutukwanayeeee!!! But he is still there and getting stronger !! He amazes me

  42. This is a revelation. Of how serious things are in Malawi . Doesn’t Mec have an internal audit department?
    How about Deloite the external auditors? How about the finance dept? This story cannot be correct

  43. If this story is true, then the Secretaty to the Treasury, the Accountant General and the Govenor of the reserve bank must all be arrested . These are the people who were transferring the money into the Kalonga account . It seems to me very strange that even the bank could allow this madness to happen.

  44. What more evidence does ACB need? What are they waiting for? Please open cases for these thieves and let justice take its course. “We have noted the observation and promise to make a thorough follow up to trace the documents….” What nonsense is that? It clearly shows that the CEO is not on top of his game and the honourable thing to do is to resign and pave way for an indepth investigation to be carried out at the institution. These thugs are now busy creating documents to cover up the mess they have created. Please remove them before they torch MEC offices….

  45. Ana ndi akazi mbwe mtaunimu nkhani yake ya ndalama zakuba!KOMA MULIMBA?WAKUNDIRANDE UJA NDIYE NDITENGATU CHONCHONSO WAKU KU NCHALO UJA.NDISANKHEPU UTI?INUTU POTI NDI NDENDE KALE IMENEYI KUBA MUNAYAMBA KALE

  46. mbendera Almighty God will never be fooled by any man. mbendera you thought that you are clever but you are the worst foolish judge Malawi has ever produced. you betrayed innocent innocent souls in Malawi by imposing this idiot and a dog (APM) as a president.

    mbendera mark my word ” Oppressor man you are running but your evil kingdom is falling apart” I quote by Lucky Dube the late South African Rastafarian.

  49. 577 + this I think Lutepo is a saint. If ACB do not probe all this, Lutepo and all the cashgaters needs to be freed.

  50. This is not a surprise,remember Willie Kalonga was once fired and this was his second coming and in between he once worked for John Kapitos CAMA where he stole a cheque,I once worked for EC and the audit is long overdue people get employed without interviews,Kalongas relatives are many at EC and his girlfriends too,I can even write their names here,though all Commissioners regardless of political parties have their relatives employed at EC without proper interviews

  51. Malawi’s Presidents since 1994 have made it a free for all to steal and loot public money. Mbendera and others at MEC are following the example of President Mutharika of looting.

  52. I had a dream. kamuzu came back to life and had a meeting with Muluzi. He shouted to both Muluzi and JZU Tembo for leaving the leadership to thugs. He was willing to stay for a while but was very angry. When Mr President heard that Kamuzu is back he rushed to his bedroom, took all the money he was keeping and run away not knowing kamuzu was just visiting us.

  54. A malawi, we can remove this govt.titagwirizana. Apm is more corrupt than jb. Kalonga machende ako stupid. Komanso inu a ACB, U GUYS UR USELESS

  55. at this rate, most people are going to work with an intention to defraud rather than benefit the organisation they’re working for.

  56. Malawians deserve these thugs. Kalonga had been implicated in an embezzlement scandal and CAMA, and he was still appointed Chief Elections Officer by those who were interested in ‘stealing’ what they could.

    Don’t complain

  57. These are very serious allegations and necessary and appropriate actions must be taken against the caught thieves

  59. These were payment to steal elections, paid to Mbendera through Kalonga. Malawi kugona bwanji, zuka Malawi zuka

  63. That is what happens when the 40th day has been reached! Your balls become too hot and heavy to move properly ;and you also use them in place of the grey matter upstairs for thinking.Willie Kalonga and Maxon Mbendera & Co. Ltd are in this situation.Unfortunately no ice blocks can be found!

  64. Kalonga and Mbendera got the license to loot when they manipulated the elections results in 2014. They will get away with it.

  65. MALAWI SADZATHEKA BASI..THE LOVE OF MONEY IS THE ROOT OF ALL EVIL THINGS BUT NOT MONEY ITSELF

  66. You guys why are you giving us bits of information? If you say tha he was a receipient of the dubious transactions from this account, why dont you specify the amounts and purposes? You have already stated that the MEC chair got 8,000,000 in loans. So was this money coming from Kalonga account? If so why was this noted by the accounts that the transaction had issues? There is no way one csn sign a loan with one institution and gets the money from someone else

  68. Bad bad bad bad! Oh Malawi: Everyone is corrupt in Malawi. From the Presidency to common man!

    One ndilibe chonena ndigoti:O God bless our land of Malawi,
    Keep it a land of peace.
    Put down each and every enemy,
    Hunger, disease, envy.
    Join together all our hearts as one,
    That we be free from fear.
    Bless our leader, each and every one,
    And Mother Malawi.

  70. This guys must with immediate effect resign from their duties to pay way for thorough investigations. Their presence at MEC will jeopardize thorough investigations.

    This is a very clear advice to the government authorities and ACB. Tell them to immediately resign from their positions.

  71. KALONGA PAJA NDIMULOMWE ANTHU AMENEWA NDI MBENDERA NYAPAPI ATIPUTIRA MAVUTO KOMA KALONGA MIMBA YIRI TOLO NDALAMA KUBA ZATHU

  72. Kudyapo basi ambwiye. A Kalonga takunyadirani. Mupitilize kugwetsa bungweli. Afterall enafe sitiona phindu la bungwe limeneli. Mukamaliza kudyamo kaperekeni makiyi kwa nyapapi kuti asankhe ena oti nawonso adipemo. Ma tally Centre anu saweka. Zimaweka ndi izi muchita akazi. Ndikudziwa kulira basi. Afterall Bwana impi Mbendera amaliralira akakwapatira sikono. Uli bo Kalonga. Judge ndiyemweyo akamvere mlandu wako.

  74. Kalonga this, Kalonga that. What is happening in this family. Are they trying to out do each other? Are these paople having a good sleep? Pepani Gogo Kalonga. Anawa titani nawo.

  75. Willie Kalonga took MEC as his personal asset. I don’t know how this evil man found his way into MEC.

  76. iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii kapumeni mwasaukitsa anthu mdziko muno anthu oipa inu osakonda moyo wa munthu koma kuba,katatangale,ufiti kkkkkkkkkkkkkoma dziwani ichi munuwake ndi mulungu ngakhale mutadziunjikila shuma koma njenjeti zidzapo basi zotsala

  79. Koma ziliko nanga munthu wa MEC wa Civic Education mpaka kugula galimoto 5 ana ku Acadamy? Nyumba ku 43? Tafufuzani bwino anthu amenewa aba kwambiri

  82. Now we knew how they sponsoring their expensive life Malawi government workers. From president to traffic officer, lawyer to accountant. I was wondering why Malawians don’t like careers like mechanical, civil, so that they can built there country and empowering manufacturing. Now I find the answer. They have role model becoming millionaires by having close to money in a Government by doing fraud. We saw main figures that do better for the country like lawyer, judges,politicians,accountants just to mention a few busy doing corruption

  85. Sadly the day that Malawians elected Bakili Muluzi and UDF to power in 1994, we Malawians laid the foundations for killing of the hard fought for democracy which we had just won, and enable a system of the looting of public funds by Bakili Muluzi, Bingu, Joyce Banda, Peter Mutharika, Senior Civil Servants, Army Commanders, Police IG, MEC, Judges etc.
    Where there is theft of public funds with impunity like there is in Malawi, democracy cannot thrive,
    As a nation we Malawians are doomed, just look at the ill gotten, stolen wealth accumulated by our political leaders, by our civil servants, by our senior army and senior police officers, by MEC, by the judges etc. – they have destroyed Malawi and we will remain poor forever unless we wake up.

    1. My brother you are right without accountability and transparency there is no democracy. Mutharika and the dead brother have finished off the job Bakili Muluzi started on the day UDF won the first multiparty election. We Malawians are indeed sleeping.

  88. Pa Malawi pano almost onse amene akupeza bwino ndi chifukwa cha cash gate. My worry is that the money belongs to govt, which is the people of this country and not just a few individuals. When are we going to manage three course meal? When are we going to enjoy our country because those who are stealing and robbing the country are not sharing to the poor people. Go to monkeybay and see how people are suffering. Malawi siidzatukuka, the old and damaged roads kamuzu left will remain like that till God comes.
    How is chapaphewa managing to stay outside all this time? She has enough, akupungula. Painful!
    Nde kuti aliyense amene ali ndi dzina ndi amene adzidya bwino? Kodi dzikoli a nzeru ndi okhawo amene anayamba ndi kamuzu like the Dausis basi? Dziko silinatukuke nde akutanimo mboma? Atsogoleri athu sakudziwa kuti these people are after ndalama basi not developing the country?

    Sooo painful, they will never find peace.

  89. What is this Malawians? What do you want the people of Malawi to do? How can donors start giving aid to Malawians knowing very well that People like Kalonga Mbandera and Chinkwita etc are ready waiting for the same/ Let the President fire all these people are arrest them for proper investigations. Once again, thank you very much Nyasatimes for the good job and please give us more . Malawi is on sale. MEC let alone Mbendera should stop threatening the public for commenting on this sensitive issue because its their money and my money too.

  90. He must pay back the money and stay behind bars,these people they take Poor Malawians for granted,there is always time.See my name.

  93. Mbendera cried tears of relief when he announced his fellow thieves as winners of the elections. He knew that anything less than DPP, he was going to be found but GOD is not man, here we are all coming out in the open.

  94. Kokakokakoka anyamata amenewo kuyendela mwambi woti kupha nyani nyani ndi kusayang’ana nkhope kapenanso kuti papsa tonola chifukwa siwudziwa mtima wa Moto. ” Mbendela analira”.

  98. THERE IS NOTHING WRONG HERE. They did a big job worth being paid. Remember Mbendera cried during the Elections? those were tears of Joy knowing that the Rigging was successful and that big cheques would soon come their way.

  99. Now I believe all these stories against MEC are fake . How can an individual open an account with a bank using govt funds?
    Nyasatines you have lost it here. Can Willie fool the whole govt machinery ?
    Where were the commissioners ? How about the director of finance? How did the accountant general transfer money into that account?
    This story is fake!!!!!!

  100. The accomplices of thieves are their own enemies; they are put under oath and dare not testify. May God execute his written judgement

  104. I am the director of finance at MEC.
    These are total lies aimed at tanishing the CEO. The CEO’s account is available yes and is used for election purposes. The account is audited by DELLOITE and government auditors . It’s not a secret account.

    1. Khumbo Phiri, your job was to ensure proper financial administration at mec and to cooperate with the auditors. You failed on both counts as is clear from the preliminary report. The fact that you knew the auditors had to be provided all information and still you failed to do so has caused all these problems, if the mec hasnt diverted the funds. You should thus apologise to the commissioners and ceo, and futhermore resign because youre the one who’s embarrassed them. But we know that there is evidence of fraud and theft at the commission, and claims of additional information which will clear up all the questions raised seem crippy. Suddenly you have converted stolen money into loans? Do us a favour and get out of this forum and bark elsewhere.

  107. Be Sirious Malawians . MEC operates an account with MSB in the name if CHIEF ELECTIONS OFFICER. It was opened with the authority of the Secretary to the Treasury. All donors are aware of this account. The Malawi government is not daft to allow an individual run an account using govt money like that.
    You may hate Willie, but publish the truth . Nyasatimes , you can do better with a little investigation before publishing

    1. Which government? The same that orchestrated looting of public funds through Lutepo and company, treasury/government departments and RBM? We already have thugs in prison after being successfully prosecuted for massive looting of public funds (even though we had these ‘trusted’ government departments and sinstitutions you are talking about!)

  108. Now it explains the puzzle I have had. These people have constructed mansions in every city of the country. One wonders where on earth do they get the money? Surprisingly no one is interested to follow up these matters. I believe there is more of cash gate in parastatals than in the main stream civil service- search me

  110. Kodi Willie Kalonga MEC ndiyache????? Usangomumanga bwanji? He has been at the institution for over 20 years ntchito kuba basi!
