Police IG summons Chilima’s bodyguards over shooting in Machinga

The acting Inspector General (IG) of Police Duncan Mwapasa has summoned police officers assigned to the Vice President Saulos Chilima after  they used live bullets to shoot  in Machinga on Friday  when political violence reared its ugly head again  ahead of fresh presidential elections.

Chilima was forced to call off his scheduled whistle-stop tours in Machinga after the road at Nselema was blocked against him

Chilima, who is UTM Party president and  Tonse Alliance running mate,  travelled to Nselema in Machinga to conduct a rally there but things turned ugly on his way to the venue as  suspected United Democratic Front (UDF) and Democratic Progressive Party (DPP) functionaries blocked Bakili Muluzi Highway around Nselema.

Speaking in an audio that is circulating on WhatsApp, an eyewitness reports that people prevented Chilima from proceeding  to the venue of the rally in revenge  that Chilima has been insulting Malawi’s former  president Bakili Muluzi.

The area is Muluzi’s home and the former president is openly supporting President Mutharika’s re-election bid.

In the ensuing fracas, Chilima’s bodyguard sprayed bullets, shooting two people who were battling for their lives and injuring others.

One of the people which the bodyguard shot was innocently on his way to the Mosque for prayers, the eyewitness said.

And there are pictures circulating on social media of another young man and a woman battling for their lives after sustaining bullet wounds.

The woman is in full UDF colours and it is reported she was on her way to a party rally in the area.

According to the eyewitness after the incident, the community mobilized to retaliate the shooting.

Chilima cancelled the tour to evade clashes.

In an interview with Nyasa Times, Police IG Mwapasa said the bodyguards are police officiers and will be summoned to explain their actions.

“They will be called to be accountable for their actions,” he said.

Chilima’s press secretary Pilirani Phiri took to Twitter: “Political violence rears its ugly face again in Machinga. VP Chilima has cancelled his whistle-stops at Ngokwe and Ntaja after DPP/UDF thugs armed with pangas blocked the road at Nselema… To avoid confrontation, cancellation was option 1.”

UDF leader Atupele Muluzi comes from the area where the fracas occurred and is running mate to President Mutharika took to Facebook to condemn political violence.

Atupele said he has information with regards to what transpired in Machinga and regretted the shooting saga.

“As much as the incident is unfortunate, live ammunition should never be used on the population. A woman and a child were shot at today. Wishing them both speedy recovery,” he said.

Just last week Tonse Alliance members in Liwonde and Phalombe  were attacked alongside some  private media personnel covering the campaign trail after their vehicle was smashed.

And  irate Mponela residents in  central region district of Dowa burnt tyres on the road, blocking DPP/UDF running mate Atupele on his whistle stop tour to Kasungu en-route to the Northern Region.

  1. Where is Human Rights Defenders guys now? This is is the issue to call for a press conference. Unarmed civilians are at risk. If these guys are shooting at unarmed civilians what more if they get the power? How many will they be shooting. shooting a woman? seriously? Shame!!!!!!!! What are women saying now? Any apology coming at all to this woman? Let alone care for her in the hospital.

  2. Malawi is stateless nationless and completely failed state.How can the whole inspector general,police commissioner,officer in charge allow vice president to be ambushed like that.Zero pa 10.its good that you have few days to go 150days nomore.rest in peace ndithu dziko liyambe kuyenda

  3. The inspector general mwapasa hired the thugs to deal with chilima’s life, after the job not accomplished and that the bodyguards took a strong action to save chilima’s life this is the reason the reason they have the case to answer. If chilima was injured mwapasa would have been investigating the matter til five years to come.

  4. Ameneyo ndiye chilima kodi siwomwewa anapha wa police kwa msundwe? Kodi APM sanalandirepo zipongwe mdziko muno? Sanamutchingire nsewu when he was coming from BT to LL? And for the sake of peace he just used a different route. Do you think his body guards could not be authorized to shoot all who blocked and were shouting at him making insults? Inu azimayi amene dzana mumanena kuti APM apepese ponyoza JB lero muli kuti bwanji wosapanga condemn this act moti mzimayi amene awomberedwayi si mzimayi ayi koma JB alright God has eyes everywhere will deal with you and mutha udyo kamba kochita zinthu potengera mbali. The whole chilima ndithu kulamula body guard kuwombera nanga wonsewa atati azitero tikhala ndi moyo mdziko muno?

    Its only dpp a party that should govern this country bcoz out of all the five demos no single person or property was affected.

    1. Chataika, To be honest with you, you will labour in vain to defend the indefendable and rotten DPP, imagine after the Nsundwe incident the cadet Mwapasa, acting police IG only sent police officers to rape innocent women and girls.Have those police officers been arrested? Have the DPP cadets who petrol bombed the innocent Seleman and family members in area 24, Liongwe been arrested? Did APM say anything about those innocent deaths? Your APM performamnce in Government for six years has been pathetic, Why is Nsanje Port,Mombera University? APM will be voted out of Government because of his sloppiness on issues like these. He is sleeping at Sanjika, already accepted defeat while Dr Chilima and Chakwera are busy campaigning, can he win by being inactive?. Mwagwa nayotu a Chataika.

      1. Well, if DPP hasn’t built Mombera University in 5 years, MCP didn’t even think of building a university in the northern region for 31 years or was in power.
        How many years did it take MCP to build Chancellor College campus in Zomba?

        And did MCP think of building a port in Nsanje in its 31 years in power?

  5. The police officers who raped women at Msundwe did a commendable job and that is why they have never been summoned……..

    1. You’re very stupid for saying this. What if the women were your mother, daughters or sisters?

  6. U can use live ammunition depending on the situation. The vice president has to be protected just as a President. Anywhere the President board guards use live ammunitions if the life of the president is in danger.

    1. Owooo inu lero amenewo if it were APM’s body guards ikanakhala nkhani koma poti nid vice president komanso wa utm ziri bwino! Be on the watch God will punish all with partisan politicking. Mabungwe kuli zii inu a HRDC muli kuti moti amene awomberedwawo si anthu and alibe ufulu wotetezedwa konse hehehehe mukamamva nyekhwe ndiye imeneyo Mulungu abwezera zonsezi tsiku lake ndi pa 23 June pano we need to silence you ppo with evil mind kuwononga dziko lino

  7. Its the same old story heavy handedness on the part of the police but in this case people are like applauding what they did suppose during the demos some crazy police did that what could have been the story. EisshDPP police or rightly Usman Imedi knew he life was in danger bit did he open fire No he was professional and died in the line of duty. MHSRIP. Not these cowards trying to sow tomorrows promotion on incompetence

  8. You don’t use live ammunition on innocent unarmed civilians period. Why didn’t they shoot in the air? You shot a Woman? Somebody’s mother? That’s messed up

  9. Chakwera said ‘we will spill blood’ and since he said this MCP and UTM have united in perpetrating violence, beating people and killing.

  10. Chilima is reckless. Mutharika has avoided going to Lilongwe and Mzuzu in the past when people were demonstrating there because he knew that if he forced his way through, then people would have died.

  11. Chilima has blood in his hands. He was speaking today as if nothing happened. He has not even apologised.

  12. Anyone who is backing Chilima on shooting innocent people, is just adding the reasons why Chilima should get out of politics. He is not fit to be a leader.

    1. Mumafuna amuphe? Mwauponda. Akanagendedwa mmutu nkufa mkanati chani? Mesa mwawatuma mukhaula

  13. If Mutharika’s bodyguards had shot people who stoned his convoy in Ndirande, what would people have said?

    1. Akananena Kuti zoziputa ntchito yauchifwamba ndizimenezi. Oyenda ndi zibonga zibonga zamupha quter.

  14. MCP and UTM are parties with blood in their hands. Since last year they have terrorised use.

  15. Some of the comments here show how UTM supporters have now internalised MCP’s violence. Shooting people is not right. Mutharika’s convoy was stoned in Ndirande but the president’s bodyguard DID NOT shoot people.

  16. isn’t there job to protect the Vice President of the Republic????……… You need to summon the thugs that attempted to assassinate the VP!!!

  17. There is no problem there why closing the road? Ndalama anamangira msewu zidali Za macitizen onse.Vuto ndi police IG kusankha pogwira ntchito yawo.Chilima ndi UTM alakwa chiyani. Kwawotchedwa magalimoto a UTM no one has been arrested.kulilongwe kunaphedwa Anthu abanja limodzi Ku office ya UTM,no one has been arrested.kuphalombe anthu ena anavula, galimoto lina kugendedwa,no one has been arrested.Why akagenda a opposition mumanyamuka mwachanguchangu kukamanga,akagendedwa chilima palibe akumangidwa.Is this one country.Bingu adapha amalawi akumpoto it was live bullets,in 2011 July.If I was abodydgaurd for chilima ndikanawombera ambiri ndithu, chifukwa ndintchito ya police kuchotsa anthu womwe adaseka mseu.The IG is telling Malawians Kut ukakhala was DPP and UDF alliance you can do anything you want towards the opposition no one will be arrested.Ukakhala wa opposition do not do anything stupid towards DPP and UDF alliance compaigners,you will be arrested.The big lesson is that diso Kwa diso.The police officers and IG did not read the pastoral letter.Ndinu IG wotani womasankha Mbali.Dpp and UDF alliance supporters should understand that Chilima, Chakwera, Atupele, Peter Kuwani and Peter Munthalika can go anywhere in Malawi to look for votes Malawi is a democratic and multiparty country.Next time mudzawombere zenizeni.Zizikomera adpp and UDF alliance okha ayi.Thats why we don’t want Peter Munthalika to continue leading Malawians.He doesn’t have brain.Ndipo chilima munamupasa mabodygaurd Kuti azimuteteza.The same with Peter Munthalika.Malawi police don’t destroy our country.You can’t handle the violence the that can start because of your incompetence.What kind of justice is that kumayanga’na opposition.

  18. Chilima is under state security as VP. Did the IG summon Chisale for shooting an innocent woman in Chimwankhunda? Which situation is more vital, protecting the VP or Chisale – a mere state house guard who by the time he shot the woman, no VIP was present?

  19. Battling for their lives my left foot ! I can’t see anything that suggest their lives are in danger. And what were they doing in close proximity with the state VP? They should be arrested before they leave their hospital beds and face the music. Luckily it seems, the body guard wasn’t aiming to kill just to maim. Bassop !

  20. Koma a acting inspector general tsopano kkkkkk kufuma kuoneka ngati ntchito amaitha heti kkkk nkhani zina mumayankha kuti tikufufuzakayeonu oonela mbali Kuti chilungamo chioneke nanga away a bodyguard a Mutharika anaombera mzimayi ndi mnyamata usiku Ku Blantyre zinatha bwanji? Any action taken or you just left the case like that coz his Mutharika aide chisale?

  21. Last time when Lilongwe thugs blocked the road for the president not to pass. The president simply avoided the route and used the by pass one. People thought he was afraid of the people. The truth is, the president did want to shed blood. He could have used the road but many people would have been injured or even killed.

    Chilima faced the same scenario and decided to do exactly what the president avoided. This shows how reckless and immature he is.

    1. Ignorant comparison is immature when there was NO Bypass route the Chilima Convoy and other travelers traveling to Zomba or Balaka Lilongwe not associated with Chilima Convoy were capable to use.

    2. You are right, Chilima should have avoided forcing his way through. He should have just returned, He is the one who asked the bodyguards to shoot and that shows poor temperament.

  22. Chakwera is very very happy now as he continues spilling blood for southerners. First to spill blood was Imedi of Mangochi and now plenty of blood has been spilled by innocent boys of Machinga. Chakwera is careful not to spill blood of his relatives in central region. If he wins, expect more spilling of blood for southerners. Zandiwopsa izi .

    1. Ndiwedi NYUSESI… Meaning nonsense. Chakwera zamukudza bwanji APA?? Was it right to close the road for the VP??? Akanakhala kunyumba akanawombeledwa???

    2. Only ones spilling blood and causing Violence is DPP -UDF Cadets you are just upset that Finally Police took Action

      1. Chakwera said ‘we are going to spills blood’ last year. Since he has sent MCP thugs to beat people, destroy shops. He has sent Nsundwe MCP thugs to kill police and they did in broad day light.

        1. Vuto lomvela Kwa aneba ndi limeneli kkkkkkkkk amatembenuza chizungu chabwino kukhala cholakwika kkkkkkkkk v pioneer

    3. Chakwera said ‘ we will spill blood’ last year. Since that speech, he has told MCP members to chase people from the southern region. With Chilima, he has sent thugs to burn buildings and destroy businesses. Chakwera has created the violent Nsundwe boys who he congratulated for killing a policeman.

  23. So in mponelabuts irate residents and in Machinga it’s UDF/DPP thugs. What stupid reporting is this.

    1. The pro-MCP and UTM media keeps misreporting incidences of violence by MCP and UTM in order to hide these two parties violent acts. But people are sharing these incidences on phones and they know that Chakwera and Chilima are violent leaders. One day, these same journalists will be on the run when the violence will consume them.

  24. Let not politicise everything Chilima is the Vice President of the Republic of Malawi, violence should be condemned at the highest level.

  25. Well done the men in uniform this time around, in so doing, no one will dare to block the VP ever again….. IG, don’t waste our time on this. Luckily no one died but learn from ur mistakes, a vice president is a state man, second in command. Anakutumaniwo mukawalodze basi

    1. Chilima will know when the bullet is in his head if he thinks he is clever. If what his bodyguard has done was done by APM’s bodyguard, wat would Chilima (and YOU) have said. You are the people who are destroying our country. You will learn why political violence is bad when one day you are affected by a civil war.

  26. This is simple. Blocking the road for hrsd of state or vice can be fstsl as they have armed bodyguards. Ndiye popeza achaws umbuli, akuchiza attack posayenera.

    1. People have seen for themselves. Chilima has learnt MCP violence acts. He is now happy to spill blood.

  27. I don’t see any problem here…The vice president was supposed to be protected and that was that.. period

    1. What is Mutharika had done the same. Would you have said its OK. UTM and MCP supporters are united in perpetrating bloody violence.

  28. No dodging.The police was under his command Chirima.A Chirima nao kulubwalubwa too much mamveramvera amakwiyitsa nazo anthu zonyozanyoza anzao.

  29. They should be disarmed. They are reckless like Chilima. Who gave the order to shoot? What was the threat level? Clearly any security officer with interpretation of events cannot wantonly spray bullets at unarmed civilians. President Mutharika has been stoned before was anyone shot at? This tells you the type of person Chilima is deliberately shooting at UDF supporters because Atupele has been picked as running mate.

    1. Unless they were recruited from the roadside, they should have known the rules of engagement.

    2. I’m surprised. Peter has never instructed his security detail to shoot. Remember the Lilongwe incident where the road was blocked and his motorcade was stonned? What did he do? He diverted. A Malawi lingalilani mozama. This enstranged VP is so powerful. Ndimveleni Chilima azizati akati ‘tidutse ya Likuni’ palibe otsutsa, even Chakwera azizati ‘yes bwana’.

  30. NO ANGER should be DIRECTED at Chilima he did NOT FIRE the Weapon the Malawi Police Service Body Guard Did whom was appointed to That Position by the Acting Inspector General.
    Any foul comments or anger should be directed to the Acting Inspector General for NOT ensuring proper training of the Body Guard if he indeed acted inappropriately.

  31. Chilima a duly Elected VICE PRESIDENT of Malawi with many threats to his life.
    If his appointed Police Officer Body Guard properly trained by the Police Service felt there was an impending threat to the Vice President that he himself disembarked from his vehicle fearing for his own safety and that of the Vice President and his only means to reduce that threat was to shoot as a last resort HE DID HIS JOB.

    Any FAULT should be directed to the Acting Inspector General in respect to poor training in Crowd Control.

    The matter should NOT BE investigated by The Acting Inspector General but a Independent Civilian Commission. Potentially those shot were involved or encouraging the closing of the Highway as they were present.

    1. Mutharika always avoids confronting protestors. That is what a peaceful leader is. Chilima on the other hand is confrontational and violent. At least we know now.

  32. I hope by now the bodyguards have already been locked up. Inu people at Malembo in Chakwera’s home stoned the whole president and kaya ndi kupusa kwa Police ku nobody was arrested or shot. In BT the whole president was also stoned no police shot at the people. All this was trying to kill the president but uchitilu was Malawi police they just watched. Kusonyeza kuti ka Chilima Kali more powerful and important than the president. Arrest all the bodyguards

    1. All these people condoning this violent act by Chilima is a sign of how MCP and UTM supporters are happy to spill blood just as CHakwera told them.

  33. Thumbs up our men in uniform for protecting State Vice President.Do it again when he’s danger.

    1. One day it will be your children or children of the vice President that is if he has some children. The enemity you are seeding today will grow and encroach your territory even if you die. Ask the families which suffered during MCP rule. This will be happening when MCP rules this country.
      You will remember this message if not then your children will do.

  34. This is not supposed to happen in the country where there is democracy. police can shoot yes but with what conditions it takes them to shoot live bullets am not sure coz am not a police officer. Though this reminds me of what happened in Mzuzu when late Bingu was Mutharika was in his second year of presidency ruled out the police to shoot 20 young men were shot to death Who were protesting against the price of things in the country😭😭😢. Is there any crime to this people who were blocking the road if they maybe were trying to put someone people’s lives in danger Who were using the road? Any action taken? My country Malawi 😤🤕🤒😷🤧

    1. WATCH THE VIDEO FIRST…You will agree that the VPs life and his security were both indeed in danger….you will even hear a motor cycle in the background cruising away…..the motor cyclist MAY BE the one with the mission to finish SKC….

      1. Don’t forget that a ‘Chair’ vowed that ‘he is a dangerous man’ and that he would deal with SKC. Why are we surprised?. Supporters of a chair also vowed that they have declared ‘Machinga’ a ‘no go area’ for Malawians belonging to other groupings. And these are the people who want to give Malawi a President that will be for all Malawians?!! Recipe for political disaster! We are saying no to tribal and ethnic based politics.

    2. You are dead right! If there was true democracy in the country under the current DPP leadership this would not have been happening.

  35. Let me be very clear here, if you have the stupidity to wield Pangas and Machetes to block and threaten the 2nd in Command of the country whom you know has armed police bodyguards to protect him, then surely you deserve a bullet. You are lucky it wasn’t between the eyes.

    All this nonsense for a thief like Bakili Muluzi? As for the IG, your days are numbered in that office.

  36. In Ndirande, yhe road was blocked fot APM? the president, but no one was shot. Who is Chilima?

    1. Comrade Bob Finye watch the video clip first and then make comments.

      What you must know is that where life of a VIP is in imminent danger, a ballistic thing is discharged to kill or frighten. You don’t play with your life in such circumstances.

      This will serve as a warning from the Malawi Police Service that their bodyguards are not jocking mates. They’re trained to kill.

      I rest my case

    2. Chilima is shooting to kill when he is a mere VP. Nanga atakhala president? No wonder paja ananena kale kuti they want to spill blood. Chomwe chikundiwawa nchoti akungochita spill blood of southerners. First it was Imedi of Mangochi who was stoned to death and Chakwera congratulated the stoners for spilling blood. Now it is the blood of innocent boys of Machinga which has been spilled, and Chakwera is all smiles. Zandiwopsa.

    3. APM is a president of Malawi and sck is Vice President of Malawi first u must know that. Second Ngati a police omwe amayenda ndi APM sanachite kalikose panthawi yomwe amagendedwa uziwe kt apolice amenewo saziwa ntchito chifukwa chete amene anakharayo osabaralisa anthu ziwa kt kukanakhara kt akufuna kupha president zikanatheka iwo alichete choncho.

    4. Are you Malawian? Chilima is the VP. In case you do not know, if the President dies today, he is mandated to take over.

  37. The blood spilt is on chilima’s hand’s. That udf woman was just passing by and didn’t deserve the bullets. In all his speeches chilima creates incitement little wonder his bodyguards shot innocent Malawians. The past 9 months Apm has been changing routes just to avoid causing this kind of event, koma Mr chilima ndi matama awo akuti spray fire!!!!!

    1. Serious just passing by wearing full UDF colours. More likely at the scene attempting to humiliate the Vice President and encourage those bent on Violence and closing the Road.
      It is unfortunate the Trained Police Officer was forced to Shoot but the Demonstrators created an unsafe environment for the Vice President it is the responsibility of the Malawi Police Service to PROVIDE that Protection and determine the level of Force NOT the Vice President

    2. How do you know kuti was just passing by….watch the video first…amathamangira konko uku akupanga encourage anzawo…..mzimayi wamkulu ngati ameneyu zoona…….aphunzirepo anzawo, kuti chitetezo cha President kapena VP saseweretsa!!!

    3. You don’t play games with the Malawi Police Service bodyguards. Play with them, you’ll will surely stop a bullet in it’s flight path ⚰️

  38. That’s the job of security. How many thugs have been arrested? Let them go back and report kwa mbuyawo amene amaatuma. And remember, Chilima is the STATE VICE PRESIDENT, unlike mwana wa mbava. May be that will send a message to all thugs that such barbaric crimes won’t go unanswered.

    1. My worry is that if that happened with APM or AAM, the whole opposition including their law society and Chilima and some churches would have been heading to the international courts. And people who are defending this stupidity by Chilima would be commenting otherwise. Tiyenazoni. One day God will judge. Akanakhala a DPP mukanaona pastoral letter ikulembedwa apa.

  39. Cadet Police IG tsopano kikiki

    Muthana nokhanokha but the bodyguard should be applauded for pumping sense into the thugs in Machinga. The violent thugs got what they wanted!!!!

    Malawi is one and we should stop this nonsense of saying kuno asabwere …. Bakili Muluzi and APM are to blame for what happened yesterday at Mselema in Machinga

  40. kodi yaku 22 ija anaocha ofesi ija mwapasa anafufuza????????????????

    kodi zinatha bwanji za bodygadi wa pitala anali kogonana ndi mai waku cilobwe kunaomberedwa nzimai kuja???? cisale aliipooooo

  41. You do not mess with vice president…ena atengelepo phunziro…this act is as bad as those who stoned H.E

  42. I said and am saying it again, if you mess around with the security of the president and his vice consider yourself dead. I salute the security officer for their action so that we must learn to respect our leaders. Even ku Phalombe, I blamed Chilima’s security for not shooting anybody. If they did that anthu ku Machinga sakanachita zimenezo. Youths shdn’t be used by politicians.

      1. 10,000 Police surrounding the Presidential motorcade those who throw stones ran off once they released the Stones.
        Totally Different Circumstances when the highway is blocked in the middle of no where with Thugs carrying panga knifes.
        Your Frustration should be directed to the Acting IG of the Malawi Police Service they shot the gun NOT Chilima.
        No doubt Chilima and those traveling with him in this convey have suffered a Traumatic event hearing an being near the loud noise of a discharge of a Rifle.

  43. What is the duty of bodyguards? To make sure that the principal’s life is safe. You must check what the Secret Services do when they see that the President’s life or any other government official is in danger.in the first place people are not supposed to block the road or stone anyone else be it the APM, SKC, Chakwera or any politician.

    1. Secret Service personnel do not have safety’s on their weapons like regular Police Service because if they draw their gun during a threat it is expected to be used immediately

  44. Awa nde kuwapanga summon, achina Malichi anakapwala Wana kwa Nsundwe nkhani mpaka Pano ziii. Chivembe cha IG chenichrni ndithu

  45. After Crying Out loud about the Incident in Mponela Atupele Ought to have Condemned the Incident more Strongly .He is not Vice President but the police can afford to Give him Chimbaula …What if People of Ntcheu decide to Block the Road in Revenge …In much as the shooting Incident is regrettable…We thought Responsible Politicians had condemned Such Actions after the Mponela Incident ….But No it Seems UDF u Vice President akufuna kwambiri ….Bwinotu bwino …

  46. Remember Chirima is the vice president of the country and this is the reason his bodyguards are given guns. Their duty is to protect the VP from any attack

  47. Ukaziputa limbanazo Why close the road why carry pangas.. next time they will not go there it a reason to all Malawian whether in mponela phalombe anywhere is Malawi politicians should be free to contact their rallies..,,,Mutharika Atupele, Chilima Chakwera and all politicians next time tell your followers to avoid stupid behaviour by closing roads, stoning burning tyres. These are thugs and do not defend them …Do not defend bad action..,,

  48. But Why People they’re blocking road’s, instead staying at there homes if they don’t want to attend the rallies…?

    Malawi is a democratic country, #Atupele he can go to #Ntcheu and #Saulosi too he can also to go to #Machinga, the is no need of blocking Road’s now is this, innocent people is in hospital…

    And by that tym, people were blocking that road where was that 👮…. This police officers they always delaying to come in tym…. Then you see the results now…

    Whish them quicke recovery

  49. With all the nasty things people do to APM, he has never commanded that anyone should get shot. He even avoided Lilongwe, sometimes using unchattered routes to save the lives of his people and let them protest. None has been shot under APM. SEE THE DIFFERENCE MALAWIANS. A leader puts his people first. What harm could this Poor UDF regalia clad woman possibly cause Chilima?? why order to shoot? Kukhetsa Mwazi as promised before even gaining power, being greedy with positions before even gaining power. Are these really leaders? change is good, but change to what? they say the devil you know is better than the angel you don’t know.

    1. President does NOT LEAVE STATE HOUSE without 100 body guards, Police and Army last year he travelled during the night and his convoys close every road for hours.
      Totally different circumstances

    2. Watch the video clip first and make a comment later.

      Oooooooh I remember giving you earlier on a degree in Master of Arts in Imbecility for Poor Countries. I still remember you Comrade

  50. Not police IG but acting police IG. Why did you not summon Chisale when he shot an innocent woman? Be warned, people are watching, tthis government is going next month

  51. Surely, they could have shot in the air, warning shots. These officers should be fired for being trigger happy. Chilima incites violence with his Osaopa and military approach to politics like that thug Mtambo. He must be held accountable. These are poor Malawians caught in the line of fire because of stupid Politicians.I dont not see how in anyway that power woman can cause any harm to the VP. Chilima and Chakwera have brought ugly and disgusting politics to Malawi. Politics of vandalism fear and terrorism. please change

    1. It is not Chilima inciting violence. Bakili Muluzi -UDF -DPP is inciting violence. This has to stop. Blood thirsty camp. You are ALL THIRSTY FOR BLOOD. Your hidden schemes are on the open. You are busy inciting terror, rigging elections and using intimidation tactics. Shame on you.

    2. You were NOT PRESENT or were YOU always ignorant backseat drivers who judge after the fact.
      FACT Chilima’s convoy was attacked last week, people were injured, yesterday UTM people were injured vehicles damaged there was a THREAT.
      What is truly wrong is the fact the running mate of DPP is better protected than the VICE PRESIDENT
