The headline is misleading. Omly 2 police officers were removed grom Joyce banda and replaced by 5 Muthalika and Mulizu just got extra police officers. Police increased police officers to former presidents or beefed up security persennel. Zopusa basi .Muzilemba zoti tikawelenga zizipanga sense nfi headline yanuyo. Shake up itiyo.
Who is interested mu za ziiiiii ngati izi. Bakili Muluzi and APM need G4S services. Anthu owononga amenewa.

Better this government is increasing security details of former heads of state than what was DPP doing by reducing security detail from the vice president coz he choose to differ with them .
