MP Kamlepo exonorates himself from free-for-all fuel at Escom

Firebrand politician and member of parliament (MP) for Rumphi East, Kamlepo Kalua, has dismissed assertions being advanced on the social media that he benefitted from the free-for-all fuel sharing at one of the Malawi’s cash-strained parastatal organization, the Electricity Supply Corporation of Malawi (ESCOM).

Kalua: I did not benefit from that

Kalua is among powerful politicians, businesspeople and members of the ethnic group – Mulhakho wa Alhomwe – who are said to have tapped from the fuel buffer at ESCOM since 2018.

However, the lawmaker told Nyasa Times on Wednesday that he has never benefitted from the free fuel galore that happened at the power supplier.

Kalua believes his adversaries are behind the scheme to tarnish his image and to put him on the wanted list by law enforcement agencies.

“Look at the ESCOM list you will find that my name has been listed with the so-called alleged fuel scam that time I was still with public Accounts Committee of Parliament. Furthermore, I don’t have a car by that registration number. So how come?” he asked.

According to the list that is circulating on the social media, Blantyre City South lawmaker Noel Lipipa and Mulhakho wa Alhomwe chief executive officer Mutchanakhwaye Mpuluka are some of the people who reportedly helped themselves from the ESCOM spoils.

  1. And people suffering with blackouts while Escom was being milked so hard that it failed to maintain the hydro electric power plants. Expenses by these evil greedy people drained all of Escom finances. These people must repay and / or face the consequences by the wrath of the law so that it never happens again.

  2. Koma Mulhako! Munatasatu! Kulikita chums chaboma kumeneko? A CEO a Mulhako kumalandila green fuel from ESCOM? A criminal enterprise indeed! Glad that DPP is now out of government so that LMC and SKC can drain the swamp!

  9. Too movious, too hurrious, too furious Mr. Kaluwa perhaps if you could be principled enough, none of these things could be smeared with you, I saw it coming that way, it started with your utterance of praise and appeasement during exclusive interviews which you said Muthalika would win the staged elections because opposition block deemed to be weak by then, and there then you started shooting down reformatory bills at honorable table settings with your young zealots Billy Kaunda and when this merit was questioned, you responded arrogantly on your Facebook wall by writing ” voting will never be done on Facebook, tell your members in your respective constituencies to stand behind 50+1, and you further said you don’t belong to our party slogans and constituents and you have your own people to represent referring may be few family members from Mulowe:it was a pure sign of high headed mind which seemingly could not wish to listen echoes of truth. You are finished and this is new Malawi, new generation, new version of doing things, come 2025 you will be shown door of exit to exile if you don’t confess your stupidity!
