you police gurus are you saying suspending the measures in exchange of peoples lives on the roads of malawi? whwt a shame to our security.
before all this i remember we used to have city buses circullor one and two it used to go in circles in the roads in lilongwe city look they can also do the same as before why cant they adopt the way deveroped countries does
If the punitive measures have been suspended..does it mean these people should continue to carry 4 per seat, continue to drive while drunk and all those stupid actions they do with the buses? So the law enforcers have bowed down to the wishes of conductors and driver? Why are they charging the k500 then? A police mukudyapo eti mxiee
Shame to police. What the drivers are saying is that they can’t comply with the road regulations. So the suspension means That it’s better that overloading continues ndipo anthu azifa than punishing the drivers.
What the heck? come on, one step forward another step backwards. My motherland Malawi.
So are you saying Lilongwe drivers and conductors are happy with new regulations and penalties???
