Mutharika cares really? Persons with albinism reject APM branded alarms
Association of People with Albinism (Apam) has rejected the security gadgets which the government bought to aid in monitoring the security of people with albinism because they are inscribed “APM Cares” – apparently refrerring to President Arthur Peter Mutharika.
Apam Deputy General Secretary Ian Simbota said they are against the personalisation of the 1 600 security gadgets .
Simbota said it is wrong to personalize property bought using tax-payers’ money.
“It is one big question that I think a serious organisation like Apam shouldn’t just look at it and let it go. We are not ready to look as if we were siding with anyone,” Simbota said.
He added: “If you look at guns, which the police and the Malawi Defence Force have, you will not find anything like ‘APM cares’, you will not find anything like ‘Bakili Muluzi cares’ or ‘Bingu cares’ because they were bought within the time such leaders were in power. So, why are those security gadgets written ‘APM cares’? We, as an association, can’t subscribe to that and we are not ready to use that and until it becomes neutral.”
Human Rights Defenders Coalition (HRDC) chairperson Timothy Mtambo has backed Apam’s stand to reject the blue gadgets, saying nobody, including the incumbent Head of State should be using people because of their vulnerability.
“Somebody should not use national resources for campaign. That’s actually unacceptable. APM did not take the money from his pocket,” Mtambo said.

The DPP is just a morass of morons. How stupid and idiotic.
Please countrymen, lets get rid of these idiotic, morons. How can we leave the country in the hands of these dunderheads?
The Way these DPP People are Reasoning sindizatodabwa ndi pa Panado pa Ma bandage pomwe atalemba APM Cares ….Kodi Anatogulira makobiri ache Ambwiye Che APMwo ….kapena Misonkho yathu?
@Anzelu ndi Anzelu the albinos’ lives are already at risk from APM Govt & the gargets labelling of APM Cares is to fool them coz the killings origin is DPP lead Govt. This culture of personalizing tax payers money with the ruling party is pure theft & insult to Malawian lets hope Chilima & Usi put it to stop after 21st May.
@Kanyimbi mwaonesa kale kuti mulimbali yiti. This issue of killing albinos inayamba ku Tanzania, then Mozambique, after that Malawi. The chief culprits behind this are these satanic witchdoctors who are promising people riches and lucky charms through albino tissues. DPP officials may be implicated, yes. But let’s cast the net wider because there are others also who may be involved. This being an election month and with so much smear campaigns, I smell a rat in those accusing others. After elections, when there is all-round sobriety, then we will know who the real killers are.
@ Anzelu
We are talking about killings of persons with albinism and the information we have is that the mutharika led government is involved. Musanamizire asing’anga please . The names have been mentioned and we all know them. Is this rocket science for you to understand?. Incase you haven’t heard the names mentioned well I will volunteer them to you. It’s mutharika, mussa, Dausi and ntaba
@from likoma U r so loughable indeed… follow these events carefully and with a sober mind of analysis…don’t be partisan in ur thinking and analysis..can’t you see that these are the most hated names in DPP by the opposition and mtambo’s CSOs??..these are names in DPP that are causing too much headache in the opposition UTM n MCP camps…. that yohane guy has been bought just to bad smear these DPP guys mnthawi ya campaign ino…but it’s too late even village pipo know it’s all lies akungowanamizira and pipo will still vote for them….bodzatu silisowa likanenedwa ..I tell you silikhala… Read more »
Chitsiru iwe eti…Magufuli in TZ took action, mfiti yakoyi couldn’t because ikupha ma alubino ndiiypyo ndi Ntaba. Its nor speculation kapena smear campaign, Mutharika ndi thakati uzingoona kunyansaso chinkhope ngati kumatako. Nonsense. Aziika chi dzina chake choopsacho pama gadgets anagula ndi iyeyo kapena Malawian money? Mfiti zokhazokha kubakiraba mitumbo yanu fotseki
NDE kuyalukatu. Campaign mpaka pa ma alarm?
There are no brains left in the DPP, just Madeya basi. Blunder after blunder. Useless people.
Apam you’re drived with someone I can see. Jst a brand? Why we have Bingu stadium? Did he use his pocket money? Why we have Kamuzu central hospital ? Did he use his pocket money?
Munyera simunati, APAM mumakwana
Abweze a DPP ndalama zaBoma anagulirazo.
Just leave them Mr President, these people of Apam are being used by opposition so whatever you can do for them will never appreciate by complain of it so leave them to do whatever they want to do with their lives but don’t mind then again if they will need your help. They are fully politically used.
Dinda vimavi vako. If you eat together with your nonsense keep quiet. The state president should leave them in case they need help.
Kkkkkk which opposition now? Government property must be written APM cares really? Come on Malawians. Who cursed this beautiful country to deserve this ??????
Inu nanu these albinos are being used by the UTMs,MCPz,Mtambo etc against the DPP govt….but akungozitaisa time….big thing here is kungowasiya apange zofuna zawo with their lives mwina akuwatuma mwanowo awathandiza..after all they are not the only group of people being murdered in malawi… everyone is at risk so boma should focus on every citizen’s security
The sooner DPP gets out of the government the better. I can put a bet here.. once DPP gets out of government, that will be the end of DPP. At least UDF has survived… DPP will become extinct. Mark these words. Take a screenshot.
Ukuyamba kumene kuzisata ndale eti??! DPP could have vanished the time the great Bingu died when it was pushed to opposition unexpectedly…but it reorganised and bounced back into govt….be careful with ur analysis man
Really president wa dziko munaganiza bwanji pamenepa? Si mbuzi zanutu anthu amenewa. Mpaka Peter cares. Tikutukwanani atsogoleri
