Nyekhwe! DPP councillor Jomo re-arrested

July 10, 2020 Green Muheya - Nyasa Times 51 Comments

Malawi Police Service have rearrested opposition Democratic Progressive Party (DPP) Bangwe Mthandizi Ward councillor Isaac Jomo Osman.

Jomo Osman arrested

Osman, popularly known as Ntopwa I, was arrested  on Friday and transferred to Lilongwe on accusations that he assaulted UTM Party members and former legislature Allan Ngumuya in Blantyre.

He is also being accused of assaulting a boy drapped in Malawi Congress Party (MCP) cloth  ahead of the May 2019 Tripartite Elections.

The arrests comes after Blantyre Magistrate’s Court last week granted bail Ntopwa 1 bail when he was charged with malicious damage and theft contrary to Section 344 (1) and 278 of the Penal Code.

He pleaded not guilty to the charges.

Limbe Police Station spokesperson Patrick Mussa said it is alleged that on May 25 2019 Osman with other people, armed with pangas, stormed into the compound of Blantyre Bangwe legislator Orphan Shaba (Independent) where they caused chaos.

He said Osman allegedly damaged three car windscreens and stole five mobile phones amounting to K1 035 000.

  2. This ruffian of a fool must rot in jail. He was simply mafioso controlling Limbe vendors and minibus tout and extorting money from them

  4. Well done police.. Jomo was simply untouchable during the Dpp regime. Ameneyu asatuluke ndipo akhaule zenizeni kuti ena atengelepo phunziro

  5. Pliz muyambilile kufufuza kuti ndenge ya tsongoleli wadzikolino inapita kuti? Joyce Banda akuyeneleka ayakhe, osayendela zipani apa

  6. komatu nawonso amayi joyce banda afufuzidwe mrs cashgate sizoyendera zipani nawonso amayi amenewa anaba ndalama zambiri kwambiri ndiye sizokondera amangidwe basi

    1. Munakanika kuwafufuza muli m’boma ndi ambuyanu apita kowedza nsomba ku Mangochi aja!

  7. Well done Police….this what some savages always forget : that just because you belong to a ruling party does not mean you are above the Law! Mumangeni ameneyu kuti ena aphunzilepo!

  8. JOMO THIS IS YOUR TIME FOR YOU TO HARVEST WHAT YOU PLANTED YOURSELF,
    NOTHING TO DO WITH POLITICS HERE,
    NO WITCH HUNTING HERE,
    KOMA NTCHITO ZAMANJA AKO NDI MASO AKO LERO ZAKUTSATA.

  9. Kodi aja Anakhapa Mayaya ziri pati….Anawononga katundu wa MEC during Registration alowa LITI ….These People amalitola Dziko- ngati lilibe Malamulo Makamaka Chimenechi ….

  10. This is not political witch hunt but it shows that the police was heavily compromised with politics. How could they allow this ugly terrorist to be above the law. He embarrassed that young man in MCP cloth. How can he do that in multiparty? Bingu did not allow such things. Bingu was a decent man unlike his half brother from Ntcheu, APM. Malawians are peace loving but Yound Democrats and Cadets behaved differently.

  13. Professor Peter Mutharika Never wasted precious time arresting political foes. If he did, most ur asses wld be in jail rt now. Leave petty issues aside, stop arresting opposition members. You need to Concentrate on real issues. Malawi has to develop. People in the villages r still goin to bed on an empty stomach. Work on how to Deliver on ur promises. What will these arrests benefits an ordinary Villager?

    1. So your brain has stopped thinking at the point of political foes? This guy assaulted several people and he was never arrested because he was DPP. Now things have changed, he deserves to be paid!

    2. You mean such people Should just be left like that？ No No no！Let them face The law. Ananyanya

    3. Dont worry brA , other ministries are busy working on Agriculture, trade, environment and others.
      This is just another swamp draining. If you were involved you are gone idiot

    4. The lives he victimised this Chule were of poor Malawians too where can’t you see you illogical cadet?, those he considered voiceless or maybe those he considered powerless as he deemed himself above the law. Such was the salvage leadership, without integrity and not upholding the principles of good governance under dpp, Shame on you all merciless dogs. If there is evidence and the charges are right, the chicken heads who were stealing must be punished. To change the mentality in Malawi. They were the corrupt system and there is no better way to build than to start with the jomos, the evil mbilizi at MRA , itaye at macra, mchacha deals at ministry of lands. And send a message to other little Jnr cadets hiding and silent right now. If it’s not the law that punishes you, trust me the wrath of God will hunt you down friends be assured.

  14. This is just political witch hunt which Will yield nothing on our ailing economy as well as our already volatile political landscape.
    One of the things for which I salute prof. APM’s government was it never wasted our precious time on petty political arrests, not that there were no issues to score against its political enemies, no, but it understood how retrospective it is.
    If the current regime continues on this path, believe me, it will create serious problems that it won’t be able to solve. And it will end the way the Bingu administration ended – people giving out beers in jubilation for the end of dictatorial leadership.
    Ndangodutsamo sindinathyole nkhwani at I.

    2. Report those wrong doers if you have evidence for the law to take it’s course. Aliyense amene alakwa amangidwe basi sizoyendera chipani izi.

    5. I believe you don’t know this Man and non of your friends or relatives have been victimised by him ….He is One of the reasons why Tonse got many votes in the Bangwe area without doing any Campaign….Nkhanza za akuluwa zimapangira Tonse campaign…Tsiku lovota kummenya mbama mpaka kumgwetsa mzimayi ….Her only crime being a well known UTM supporter….

    6. Political witch hunt on Jomo, ha ha ha ha what will the gvt benefit from arresting him leaving the big chambos. He was untouchable. Inenso mulandu wanga uli kale komko and he was challenging “that no one can arrest him just go and rot”.

  16. Awa mukuwanyengelela,he did a lot,inflicting pain to innocent pipo
    We need all this trash to be sorted out that even their un born shd not do the same
    14 yrs,apo biiiii miyala ilipo tingogenda

    1. Zowona ameneyu akanamugwira ndi ndani kuli Mchacha ndi Dausi?

      Achichosa mapiko KUTI ana asewere nacho 😭. Wawona NYENKHWE live 💪🏾🇲🇼🤣

  19. It never rains but pours. When you allow yourself to be the stick used to bully others. Today he’s alone answering for the orders he took from above while those above are still out there. This boy was too loud selfish and evil. Untouchable. Even his presence never pleased most in DPP. Trust me he deserves to be in reformatory, rather prison in our case here.

  20. Why is he transferred to Lilongwe is this transfer not similar to HRDC members MacDonald Sembelekaand Gift Trapence when DPP was in government

  21. Anyapala kundendeko: Chonde Jomo yo munchite zijazi! Abereke ma twins! Pepani kuti chi “chick” cho ndi chonyansa nkhope!👙🥶☻💀🙈👽🦍

  23. The court once stopped the police from moving Mr Timothy mtambo who was arrested in Lilongwe and police intended to move to him Blantyre. The conduct by police does not make any sense at all.

  25. you reap what sow. It might look like they are mistreating him, but this guy was notorious to the core, it’s just fair on him…

    1. Ali ndi milandu yambiri. Mulandu wina anaupalamula ku Lilongwe… wina ku Mzuzu, wina ku Chikwawa, wina ku…etc etc.

  28. Presumably we shld all be equal under the Law. However that’s not the case in Malawi rt now. DPP cadres r being persecuted in broad day light. If Jomo committed an offence he shld be arrested. However, it seems like he is only being persecuted for bein a DPP sympathizer. So far only DPP followers have been arrested left , rt and centre. . So many people committed crimes in the run up to the Elections. How come nobody from UTMCP camp has been taken in? We lost a Police Officer at Nsundwe. Timothy Mtambo and his crew were all behind this. But instead of letting justice take its course, u r rewarding him with a ministerial position as if life of a Police man didn’t matter. We all know Jomo committed a crime in Blantyre. Why has he been transferred to Lilongwe? Where is fairness and justice? We say NO to selective justice!

    6. Wawa,those suspected of killing that innocent policeman are already in police cell/remand. You also know that we have millions of DPP supporters in Malawi( including yourself ) why Jomo only? It’s clear , he committed a crime. Don’t say its political persecution. In fact Jomo can not win all the cases against him. He will obviously be convicted .The cases are just too many and you know that. This fool went overboard with his brutality. I fail to understand why the whole ruling party failed to tame him. I wish you could use the same wisdom you are pretending to have now to help him that time.

    8. Kkkkkk! Walira munthu! One cardinal rule you should never forget in life is this: Whatever you do as part of an organization, club, party, church etc.etc, there are things there where one day you will be called upon to answer as an individual. Jomo used to think that he will always be a part of the DPP in all that he did. It is now time for him to learn that he is basically an individual.
