Nankhumwa denies lying about JB, Lutepo CCTV footage
Malawi’s Information Minister, Kondwani Nankhumwa has maintained that government handed over to the Anti-Corruption Bureau (ACB) footage of meetings between former president Joyce Banda and Cashgate suspect Oswald Lutepo that implied the two were discussing something sinister bordering on corruption or fraud.
The minister has been facing demand to tell Malawians who he gave the footage to ACB and how the pictures were taken after revelations that CCTV cameras in State residences packed up long time ago.
ACB hierarchy has been emphatic that it knows nothing about the CCTV footage handover and Joyce Banda’s office said all State residences do not have working CCTV and that is the reason the nation does not know the last moment of former president the late Bingu wa Mutharika in 2012 because even then the cameras had ground to a halt.
Speaking during Tiuzeni Zoona interview program on Malawi’s privately owned Zodiak Broadcasting Station, Nankhumwa denied that he was lying about the submission of the CCTV footage to the ACB officials and maintained that he sent the footage to the officials of the director of the ACB.
“Yes I watched the content of all the footage but I can’t reveal what it is about because our lawyers have advised us not to reveal the content of the footage,” said Nankhumwa.
Nankhumwa also claimed that he was not aware of the query filed by the ACB on the whereabouts of the footage.
The minister also strongly declined to mention the specific people or government organ that sent the footage to the ACB officials “on legal grounds.”
“What I can say is that it is the government which sent the footage to the ACB. Yes, I know those who sent the footage to the ACB but I can’t disclose because our lawyers have advised us against mentioning them in public,” he said.
Nankhumwa said he feels the footage has delayed to reach the ACB offices because of workers strikes. He hoped that the footage will reach the ACB soon after strike.
The information minister said Malawians should not rush at accusing him of lying because “within the coming two or three days something is expected to come out which may be strongly connected to what we earlier said.” He did not elaborate.
He therefore appealed to members of public to stop accusing him of lying through his teeth on the CCTV footage.

Amalawi siopusa ngati iwe opanda satifiketi
makiliyobasi has cooked we know it and we have the evidence. It was cooked at MBC and know the (cooks) people involved
To quell these disputes, simply air the footage for all Malawians to see how JB was looting. I have no doubt she did but please expose the evidence for everyone to see
It takes 72 Hours for one send to pray how many Cd’s do they have?
ikani mma dvd ifenso tioneleko. Anankmwa mwaishosha nokha mumafuna muijambule mwachinyengo pano anthu omwe munatumao akukanilani, UISOVA
CCTV Footage yachokera kuti if the cameras have been out of use since time immemorial? Mukodza naye JB as mukuoneka kuti mukulephera kugona. Dziko likuphotchola thengo ili ngati galimoto lopanda driver. Deal with that
Angofuna atibere ndalabe
Its possible that JB may have been the ultimate thief in the cashgate saga but there is no evidence pointing to it at the moment. What DPP is trying to do is to set ground for 2019 elections to ensure that JB and PP are out of the contest in the South. DPP will pair up with UDF as the case is and make Atupele running mate. They would want JB out.
If she is properly linked to cashgate with concrete evidence to convict her, then it will be just as good for DPP as that will be the end of PP. Paja ndalama zachipani zimakhala ndi founder yekha ku Malawi the rest are supposed to worship the founder for them to consider releasing funds to a party
Minister of misinformation and deceit Mr Nankhumwa what you must realize is that Malawians are not fools. You may try to hood wink us by fabricating evidence against JB. you will not convince any of us. It is a well known fact that your corrupt, inept and clueless president is so desperate to try and win our sympathy by making up stories about JB. You and his advisers are ill advising this man. You are feeding him lies and if it is alzheimer then you guys are in trouble. The donors asked APM to address cash gate from 2009-2013. All of a sudden JB has become the issue instead of letting the courts deal with Cash gate. What is APM afraid of if he is clean? Why try to divert the attention and all of a sudden JB becomes the center of the investigation? What you need to know is that its not just the Malawians that are watching the donors too. So you can continue to make fools of yourselves because we Malawians know better.
Lets wait poor malawians for wat Namkhumwa said dnt critise him plz lets be patient
Bwana Nakhumwa, do not take us as idiots. We’ve been told the cctv packed up during Bingu’s reign. Where, then, did the pictures come from? We know your IT wizkids, the same ones who helped rig the elections, have been at it. I would believe the story if the information originated from the foreign IFMIS Auditors. Otherwise please shut up.
Yes i watched the content of all the footage. It is government which handed over the cctv footage to ACB. Who got hold of this footage first? Umakawonera kuti mafootagewo? Kunyumba kwako kapena kwinakwake? Unaziziwira kuti m’mene zimagwirira ntchito? Ndekuyipa kodziunjikira dzinthu pafamilly kapena ntundu umodzi zinthu zokuza dziko lonse.
Shaaaaaa….kodi Nankhumwa ankafula agalu asanayambe ndale eti?
Nankhumwa. you have really connered yourself. You are just proving to the nation how stupid you are together
” GARBAGE IN, BARBAGE OUT”. That’s what APM ministers are all about.
Kodi Mu DPP mo zinazi simukumaletsana bwanji? I thought APM is a Prof in Law. Surely, what makes him sink so low by allowing this so called spokesman to be telling the Nation of Malawi all these childish gabage. Instead of getting serious with sirting out the Nations welfare, you are busy having sleepless nights fighting JB. JB lost the elections and its history. JB is the former President pliz stop fighting with her. Sort out the issues we are facing here and leavevthe former President alone. It seems like the more u fight her the more u are being exposed. Please leave JB alone before you loose ur dignity. JB is not a saint but what DPP is doing, is causing the Nation to like JB more and more. Whatever u are purposing for evil God will turn it round.
Stop taking the nation of Malawi for fools.
I think the best way is that Nankhumwa must just shut up because he is neither the ACA spokesperon nor the PRO of the malawi police service
JB former president of the republic of Malawi . Plse tell micheal usi and mlaka maliro to immediately stop their drama at MBCTV plse i plead with MBC to tell these boring guys to stop it
Za chamba basi. Ukuuza ana? Taoneni! In English, “Look at him!”
Nankhumwa is complicating issues for himself as well as government. One month after he told Malawians thru atolankhani that cctv footage had been handed over to ACB (not sent mind you). Now he is telling the same Malawians that the cctv may not be with ACB (still on transit, with who). This is at a time when ACB offices have been sealed by government. Mukuseweresa aMalawi eti? Kuwona chithupi ngakhale mutu wa Nankhumwa mwina amadwala matenda okugwa ali aang’ono kapena amadwala khunyu.
Kondwani, are you sure that it has taken all this time for the CCTV cameras to reach the ACB WITHIN lILONGWE? Are you serious about that? If the cameras have not reached the acb for all this time, what has happened between the time you handed them to you stewards and now? Be serious guys.
Unduna womangoponyeredwawu ndi chomchotu. Koma JB mutseguka naye mmimba ndithu. She is no match to your mathanyula
to Nakhumwa I just sing this song we used to sing when we were kids. “WINA ALIRA, EEE WABA MZIMBE KUMADIMBA” YO YO YO YO EEE WABA MZIMBE KUMADIMBA. FOR U WINA ALIRA EEEE ANANDINYENGEZA. try another trick.
Nakhumwa is someone so pathetic, why not just keep quiet, you are used to using shortcuts and dirty tricks, u can not make a CCTV footage now, I wonder why the Guard COmmnander and those who were there during Bingu’s time did not advise u that it will backfire on u, they knew these stopped working long time ago BUT I love the fact that you were all blinded, why? coz God wanted to show u that – NDINU ABODZA, WONAMA for the world to see who you really are, I am sure you are all scratching your heads as to why you did this stupid thing – God making that MAlawians continue seeing who you guys are really are – lol. La 40 lidzakwana kuyamba uku. PEPANI find something no nail JB. Puu mu dothi. Try again.
childish
shame on Nakhumwa you are a disgrace, so the CCTVs were not working since Bingu’s time and they only started when u went into Govt and u make CCTV footage to suit your propaganda, wagwa nayo, Mulungu si JAmes – kuyaluka basi – paja anayimba nyimbo kale ty ” amene anandiuza ndiwo analakwa”, you told the nation several weeks ago and the strike at ACB just started recently so no connection in the delay of delivering the CCTV footage – lame excuse, shame on u, we have no respect for people like u, just shut up and nurse the shame. God is goodooo for everyone ooooooo.
DPP grow up guys! Come on.
Aaaaaaa! Ndilibe chonena abale anga.
Does this mean that the former president was being spied upon? and if so which national agency was responsible?, who authorised it? and why?
this may yet prove to be a smoking gun for gross misconduct and even anti-constitutional, hitherto treason!
yemweyo akuti footage yinaperekedwa ku ACb, yemweyonso akuti yachedwa kufika chifukwa cha Strike, kumvetsa chisoni kwabasi ati a NDUNA
let’s wait and see.
Useless, u r taking us for fools huh. Boma likukulephelani kuyendesa nde mwati musokoneze a malawi nd maboza a cctv.
Koma ku Malawi kokha! This guy Nankhumwa is simply NOT ministerial material .
I am fed up with this rat. He will be made to eat his own ***t one of these days.
Apa palibe nkhani. A minister sakutiuza zoona kuti ndi ziti.
Zako izo namnkhuma, umanamilanji zithuzi zikjgenda pa train kupita ku ACB kmkkk
I am fed up with this rat
That’s the best madness coming out of a Minister. Why can’t you just keep quiet Bhatia zakuvutani avail uni.
Honourable Minister! its true that when you start lying don’t change. But this is a different scenario Mr Commissioner for Information. It would have been better if you didn’t say anything at this point in time. The saying goes: its like murder case to confirm a blue lie
WAITING, KUONA MASO AKHONO NDI KUDEKA—————KAYA LITI.
Kodi JB zinatheka bwaji kuti Kunyumba ya president kusakhale CCTV ? Linali dala limeneli. Usatinamiza ayi. Uthatu kunama kwa anthu koma mulungu akukuona kuti ndiwe wabodza. Kubvomereza ndi kwabwino kuti mulungu namalengayo akukhululukire. Zengerezu adalinda kwau kwau.
Nankhumwa don’t think that you are the wisest person in Malawi. Some of us are more wiser than you. Some ten times, some twenty times than you are.
Is this guy TB Joshua, so he knows in advance what is coming up in two days that will make us believe his story? Why not tell us right now?
Nankhumwa know that one day you will regret lying to the public. Politics is all about being used and that is exactly what it is doing to you.
nthawi ikwana yokha, awona zakuda amenewa.
Chitsilu “checheni”
Nankhumwa, why don’t u also submit the 92 Billion footage to ACB. What comes does not beat a drum, otherwise Bingu could have spent that month outside state house. CCTV stopped functioning long b4 your ngwazi gave goodbye to all his enemies.
Kondwani, Kondwani, the name sounds feminine therefore prone to lying through the teeth. All correspondences to ACB are addressed through the director and no any other official. The two top officials are denying ever receiving the footage. Kondwani is a pathological liar.
Ukanama sikuchedwa kucha Hon Min.
Inu cctv cameras stopped working way back. Ndiye munatumiza makamera osagwira ntchitowo kapena zojambula inuyo zabozazo? Be very careful nankhumwa on what you are saying. It is sad to see learned young people like you to be used by this fool. Mulungu since muthalika, wamva? Watch out at the fingers that are pointing at you!
Let us wait for the blue lie,we have heard several lies,the famous black red green of Mwanza ministirial slaughter,yellow lie of Matafale,Chiradzulu ziwalo murders and recently,orange lie of rotten maize,cashgate and Mphwiyo shooting culprits and jet sell proceeds.
This stupid minister is such a joke that he has taken Malawians for a granted. He is only stressing to the public his lies he hasn’t said anything different from what he said before he shouldn’t politicise cashgate because its the thing we want to know in details though we already know that every ruling party in Malawi is was and is being bankrolled by stolen money from public coffers hence ruling parties get rich within a day of its members stepping into the state house corridors. Therefore Mr Nankhumwa what you have disclosed that you interfered with the case that is in court as a cabinet minister can be used to quit JB even if the court can hear overwhelming evidence against her but on the basis of government interference the accused is deemed as a victim of political persecution so no one can be put in jail for such an unfair trial. And about the handing over of the so called CCTV footage you are lying in blue colours that the process has been delayed by strikes, u told us that u HANDED over the footage to the law enforcement agencies not SENT as u are saying now do u think we cant differentiate the two simple English words? and more over it was long before the strikes started and your ministry is not part and parcel of the strike you madly talking about.
OMAYITU YASOWA CHOCHITA NDIPONSO IKUONEKA KUTI IKUTSOGOLEREDWA NIZA ANTHU OSATI MA POLOFESA NGATI TIWADZIWIRA ZACHISONI KWAMBIRI
Awanso ndiye kaya,,anawasankha bwanji kodi? Oooh paja ndi alhomwe eti? Mamina okhaokha.
Lies do not build but destroy! Liars will never sleep but will be haunted by their own lies! Ife sitisiya kukutengetsani bwana munatiyamba nokha! Ukanama sikuchedwa kucha! Malawian democracy is maturing fast, sikale lija tinkati akayankhula a Nduna ya Boma ife tonse zii! Lero kungokanthamula bodza tili nawe pa Nyasatimes!!!
From “handing over” to sent. How can CCTV have sound? He says he heard that “they were discussing” something bordering on corruption. Izi ndi nyasi za nkutu.
He was not even eloquent in his explanation a sign that he was telling lies.
Slow down bwana minister. At the time you said about the footage, acb staff were not on strike. You have gotten it wrong altogether. Why are you making a fool of the president?
Then nankhumwa is ACB director now. Usiye chizungu chomangoti as far as government is concerned. Chizungu chambuli wamva. Improve ur English u are a government spokesman. Ngati a jean kalilani bwanji. Akuti the dynamic leadership of professor nthawi zonse. Mxiii
Slow down bwana minister. At the time you said about the footage, acb staff were not on strike. You have gotten it wrong altogether. Why are you making a fool of the president?
Both nankhumwa and pitala opanda mano are silly. Only a fool can buy ur crap.
Joyce Banda can never blackmailed nor intimidated by this trivial and desperate move by government to contain her. That is mischievous and waste of resources. Instead of cooking up evidence against the former President why dont you use the money to address water shortages here in blantyre.
Zitayeni zimenezi m’mene munazitayira za tcheya. Mungoononga ndalama chabe.
monkey
But you confirmed that its in the hands of ACB. Mwana wosapola pa nchombo zikuvuta pompano
Nankhumwa ndiwe mbuzi I thought the time u were releasing the so called cctv the acb guys were still working? How long can t take from ur office in city centre to acb office considering how close ur offices are? Chauta akulanga. Ndipo ngati muli a chilungamo mutionese footage Ya bingu n the nation will trust u in wat u sayin.
Nankhumwa you are a waste of time. I dont think you even believe to what you are saying. Listen to yourself. You are talking nonsense.
Iwe George Mdeleza usamatinamize apa wamva. Munthu wakuba iwe mpaka kuba dzina?
Tikufuna kaye footage ya maliro a bingu osati za umbuli wanu uwo
Guys,plz leave Namkhumwa alone, chilungamo chiwoneka pompano,nobody is above the law.
These idiots, how do you go to retrieve the CCTV footage information where by there is no case against JB , where by there are no lawyers representing JB, where by there is no court order , where by the interested parties are not represented and where by we are being told all CCTV cameras stopped working close to ten years ago ?
The issue of ACB staff being on strike it has just come in now after your fictious CCTV footage revelation .
This is the most childish government in the world , there are many activities which were taking place in all the state residences which your friends will want and demand to watch as a proof before the court of law.
This is the time that the nation will prove to the whole world that the techeknowladge used to rig votes is the same one you have used to get the so called CCTV footage. Donors are waiting for this information and if you are playing YOYO with donors , don’t expect any donor coming to donate money to this rigid government.
Bodza lophunzilira limenero. Kafunseni kwa mwana (Dausi) kuti amatani anzanu akafuna kunama. Fwe fwe akukakumana ndi OBAMA poti adamuphunzitsako ku college.
Inu mukumvela za awa zoti zamilandu sadziwa kanthu?apita ndi cctv chifukwa chiyani osatenga a ACB ndi a Court pamodzi ndi Lutepo kuti akawonele limodzi ku state houseko ngati umboni? Umboni wumenewu satenga koma kukawonela limodzi
Ndiye mutulutse footage ya what happen to Bingu????
They have run out of ideas.
Amalawi mumasekesa kwambiri. Is this why u sent police to seal ACB offices to stuff a dubious CCTV in? he he he de! Mwanama mwamlephera mayi ameneyo!
Chitsilu choyankhulila palilime anga gwape tachionani chinankhumwa. Koma pa college munapondapodi inu? Why cant u leave the school dropouts Dausis to be telling the world lies while u do your work professionally? Chindere chakufikapo imwee haaaa wandikwiyyisa shomene!
Zitsiru zokhazokha nankhumwa ndi mbuyake opusa kwabasi
Handed over has now turned to intransit. Where is ACB, in north pole
My friend Martin Kantikana phee kumvetesela chitsiruchi chikulankhula….haaaaa
Chilungamo chigwire ntchito. Akuthawa chani mai Joyce. Alithawa bwanji dziko lokhala lao. Bravo Nankhumwa. Waiting for the three days said.
Some ppo dnt evn knw hw to lie
Zomvetsatu chisoni munthu wabambo kumupusitsa chonchi. I hope he will wise up and see some sense in all this cooking. Kodi cctv sinatumizidwa before strike? Okapelekawo akuyenda wa pansi? Ma office a ACB ali ku Chitipa and CCtv footage ikuchokera ku nsanje wa pansi. This man shaaa! Akuuza ana chiani? Paja akuti something is going to happen. Tiyenititchere khutu and amaso totong’ole. Why is the govt interfering with this cashgate really. I wonder what ACB Boss is making out of all this rubbish.
