Reverends Nyondo, Chipofya refuse to apologise to Tumbuka chiefs
Livingstonia Synod general secretary Reverend Levi Nyondo and the church moderator Reverend Douglas Chipofya have refused to apologise to Tumbuka chiefs for demanding that some political leaders speak during the funeral ceremony of Paramount Chief Chikulamayembe on Tuesday.
Nyondo said there was nothing wrong that he and Chipofya did.
“As church, our role is to ensure that democracy is at work, this is why we were requesting the Leader of Opposition in parliament Right Honourable Lazarus Chakwera and the president of the United Transformation Movement (UTM) Right Honourable Saulos Chilima to give their eulogies,” said Nyondo.
A letter signed by chief principal group village headman Kabazamawe, chief principal group village headman Khalapamhanya, principal group village headman Kamzinga and principal group village headman Hunga is asking the top synod officials to apologise for allegedly causing mayhem during the funeral ceremony.
“We did not like the conduct of the two synod officials for dishonouring our late paramount chief by causing confusion and chaos during thefuneral ceremony,” says the letter in part.
The letter says the funeral ceremony was a state event, saying as such it is the family in collaboration with the state who decides who should speak and who should not be.
Tension started building at the funeral after director of ceremonies Chimbizga Msimuko of taxpayer-funded Malawi Broadcasting Corporation (MBC) clarified on an intervention by Nyondo to acknowledge the presence of estranged Vice-President Saulos Chilima at the ceremony.
But the director of ceremonies responded by asking all speakers to only acknowledge President Peter Mutharika in their salutations. Nyondo, who was on the initial list of speakers, was later skipped.
The synod leadership, which sanctioned commencement of the service before the President’s arrival, accused government of sidelining other political leaders.
Immediately after taking over the programme, a visibly fired up synod moderator the Reverend Douglas Chipofya announced that Nyondo, Chakwera and Chilima would speak before the church section of the ceremony. His announcement drew applause from sections of the mourners.
He said: “If the GS [Nyondo] does not speak, it means the Synod of Livingstonia has not spoken and that is unheard of.”
Chipofya’s announcement stirred panic and group village head Kazamawe moved in to seize the microphone from Chipofya, stating that protocol does not allow anyone to speak after the President.
At this point, Nyondo emotionally threatened that his church would not proceed with the funeral programme and declared that the chiefs carry over: “Tiphalazgenge yaye! Mafumu walutulizgenge [We won’t preach, let the chiefs takeover].”
But the clergy were persuaded to proceed and Kazamawe said : “We accept that government erred by not including other political leaders on the programme, but they should not speak after the President has already spoken. This should never happen again.
“We ask you as a church to preach the message in honour of Paramount Chief Chikulamayembe who loved attending church services.”
When the synod resumed the programme, Chipofya ignored the President’s presence and only saluted Chilima, Chakwera, the Speaker and other dignitaries.

Democracy mpamaliro pomwe. Hehede, Malawi is heading for yet another interesting leadership will one of these two aspiring candidates take the mantle. They even not feel ashamed of themselves. Nthawi yanu nkhalamba zidzavutika komanso ulemu wamaliro ndikuuona ukudzatha.
What was the synod’s intention? Were they trying to hold presidential debate? These other leaders and their followers are proving to me that they lack maturity. They are useless too and they totally have nothing on offer to us. Instead of making their manifesto clear they are allowing to be used as puppets by politically oriented churches. These other churches are political parties. By the way what is the essence of bringing eulogy political debate at the great chief’s funeral?
Livingstonia under nyondo has been fiercely fighting DPP. The battle started long away in Bingu’s era and only brought to a brief ceasefire in JB’s two yr rule. Noticing this APM, the true leader, sent an olive branch to Lev nyondo and his secretariate soon after DPP’s reelection in 2014 which nyondo proved to have turned down. Dispite all this APM has been engaging the synod by holding prayers with them, remembering them in development programmes, allowing the government to assist in the synod’s University and even by going to preside over their graduation celemonies which is a rare in born in humans to their adversaries. Nyondo has been in the center stage taking the church in opposition against any DPP government and he reterally take sides. I still want assistance here, what prompted this embattled dictator church minister to call upon the opposition leaders to make their campaign eulogies at the great chief’s funeral ceremony? Why not inviting them to his church or family to make their campaign? Definitely these guys were waiting for the right time to proof to APM that they are also a force to reccorn with. Unfortunately they miscalculated their timing. Honestly saulos and the dictator were intentionally invited by this so called man of God to be used as a tool to intimidate the development ambassador in front of everyone attending the funeral directly or indirectly. Had the man of the moment failed to be in attendance, the very same foes would have started accusing him for their failed intimidation plan. Trick your fellow fools not us.
It’s absurd to note how the totally blind opposition guys are failing to appreciate what APM has done in 4years. Beautiful roads, state of art infrastructures, great maintenance works in our higher learning institutions, new state of art furnitures in our higher learning institutions offices etc. Even though some are backing this dictator rev nyondo, the guy is so stubbon and confussionist. How can a church hijack the funeral ceremony from the family members. It was clear right from the beginning that this dictator, the guy who is seeking the 4th term beating the synod’s constitution term of two years with his so called moderator started talking about party legalia soon after they realized that the president was to attend the burial ceremony. He was in high mood to showcase his prowess before the action man APM. He was doing this shamelessly to buy a political podium for his fellow dictator, retired rev chakwera, who in his service in assemblies clinged to power for more than two decades without anything tangible in terms of developing to the church. This guy too in his life presidency at the synod’s has reterally done little and only get ranks in fighting the president, the true performer, and angaging the church in it’s land wrangle with nkhoma synod. This guy is nothing but useless and he lacks the true spirit supposed to be possessed by true men of God. What credit has he got from all this rabbish apart from bringing this debate. To be honest APM is the performer: in zero aid he did massive development and he doesn’t hold enemosity with anyone. He even develop the back yards of his adversaries eg njangwa livingstonia road. This guy , APM was worthy to be a reverand osati zinazi zongolowera sukulu, makani ndi kuba.
Stupid zero deficit, there is no development in malawi
Don’tapologise! Whois Mutharika &wherewashewhenwewerefightingfor Multi-party? Kungobwera basi & get the presidency on a silver platter ndikumatiberanso? Akagwere, Mxiew!
No way for Nyondo and Chipofya to apologise.Inu mukunyozanu kanyozani mungotengapo tembelero.Petala wako ukunenayo palibe akuchita mmalawi muno iwe anakupangila chain?Musalimbane ndi azitumiki aMulungu uzasiya tsiku lina zimenezo.
I am writing from PHALOMBE and Lomwe clan. The Church was NOT wrong at all and these Tumbuka Chiefs are very wrong because it appears they were there to please their president and not following Democracy. I am so shocked to see these Tumbuka Chiefs taking wrong direction and always have saluted them due to their Schools. It is pitiful to hear that they still want the Church to kneel down before them?
I don’t see anything to apologize for. They did nothing wrong. Problem is that APM has been wrongly advised and, in the process, misled by his so-called advisors that funeral occasions present a golden opportunity for him to gain some mileage in popularity. Unfortunately, depending on how the funeral program has been arranged, one can lose popularity instead.
Let’s imagine the program offered Chakwera and Chilima an opportunity to speak before APM. The President would have scored a winner.
Eduardo… better are the two reverends with hatred towards Mutharika Family than Mutharika Family having wholesale hatred towards 2 million+ northerners
Chindere Zeleza! So you know that all the confusion in the north is led by the two reverends????? What is your interest about the north??????????? If they confuse the north, is it your mother or uncles that will be affected????? North ikome pano??? Ife kuno ku North timalowola, ndiye aliyense MPONGOZI timampasa ulemu. How can IN-LAWS (Chakwera and SKC) be denied an opportunity to speak at a funeral of their In-law Chikulamayembe and someone (APM) who is not even close to us allowed to speak in the name of State President. Presiding over which state??? Since 1994 Malawi has been ruled by Southern Region Governors (aka Pseudo-Presidents).
the church should use right channels not in that uncivilized way. suppose this govt wins elections, what will the synod do as it has no power to form or appoint a govt. disrespecting the govt is the same as disrespecting the pple of Malawi who elected the government. diplomacy is important and they were supposed to address this issue befre the actual celemony. we pple we could have not knwn this savage confrontation as this would have been resolved at their inner circle with the government. the church acted like politicians that why one time they colled politivcal parties to a form one political party. but also the government side should have make sure the church knows what wsa on the program and help them clarify why others were left out and this discussion consensus could have been reached to avoid this francas.
much respect to the founder of tribal politics Chakufwa Chihana (RIP)
Fake pastors promoting hatred.
Can someone with a dictionary teach these henyas the definition of STATE FUNERAL. Thanks
By not recognising the Head of State in the salutations by Reverend Chipofya in retaliation to the government’s failure to acknowledge the presence of Chilima and Chakwera, the church showed disrespect to the Head of State and also proved to be no different from the government MC. I was expecting the church to recognise all of the big people; APM, SCC, Chakwera and Speaker without sidelining anybody!
SHAME ON THE SYNOD! SHAME ON CHIPOFYA AND NYONDO. You are a disgrace to the Synod as you no longer represent the church’s interest but your own vendetta agenda towards the APM. The government officials were wrong but by doing the same the church goofed big time!!
APM doesn’t deserve respect at all. he is just very useless!!!!!
Brave Nyondo and Chipofya
Chikulamayembe preferred the church to vimbuza.
If I was Mutharika zi athu za kumpotozi ndikanangozisiya. Sizimayamika olo. This was a state funeral. The church was there for prayers. After prayers all the proceedings were supposed to be under government and chiefs who falls part of government under local government. Now ichi chimunthu cha tchalichi wanted to hijack the proceedings, kaya umbuli kaya ufiti kaya usawi. Now on this platform pali athu akuyikila kumbuyo mbuli yotchedwa Nyondo kaya Nyundo kaya.Thats why Kamuzu had nothing to do with these people. Osati anali woyipa koma kusayamika.
You bastard stupid nigga,,u dont have to speak such words to us the TUMBUKAS,,,tia nthu tosaphuzila inu,,,mumangokhalira kuphalurana bas kumangochulukana mu zikko muno ,,u stupid YAO
Tiyamike chani? Amatidyesa ndi president? Anthu akumupoto timafuna chilungamo osati uchitsiru ukuchitika ndi azitsogoleri akwanuko.. how do you bar others from speaking in a democratic dispensation? Democracy yinabwera ndiife ndiye simungaimvetse and we understand..
Kkk we are living kamuzus mistake of deporting some teachers. We are now struggling and complaining that many northerners are flooding in tertiary institutions.
Its like John Tembo who nurtured a prison for others yet he was later dumped in the same prison.
Apologise for what? We have seen people like Julius Malema speaking on a funeral where there is a president and even oposition leaders so why not here in Malawi? Chifukwa munthu sungapite ku maliro kuti nzako akakuphepesere mmalo moti upepese wekha. Anthu ofunikas kuyankhula akanawapatsa mpata kuti onse ayankhule asanayankhule oyimila president.
Saying the “this was the state event” while denied others to speak what’s the meaning of state event??? In Democratic country one of its pillars is freedom of speech ,,, free mean it’s for,,, after all afumu amasamala aliyese weather mbava hule or guy all these pple belong the chiefs,,
Apologize for what, and to who? Let the DPP Government apologize. This whole incident happened because of these uncivilised and greedy DPP guys.
It is a naked truth that Kabazamawe, Khalapamhanya, Chimzinga and Hunga are all stooges of the DPP and APM. They are cadets of Jappie Mhango, hence being accorded TV coverage to rant against their own leaders. These same chiefs masquerading as advisers and council to Chikulamayembe have caused untold miseries to people of Rumphi District through bribery and corruption. They misled Chikulamayembe on a number of occasions to an extent of shifting land boundaries in favour of those that palm-oiled them. Wherever money is to be generated, let sweat be the witness. To the contrary, these despots generate money while sitting behind microphones under DPP’s sponsorship. Rumphians are not fools. Tumbukas are not fools. Northerners are not fools. We will vote for Chakwera. We love SKC as well but for the sake of not dividing the votes, we will vote for Chakwera en masse. We will not vote for this crappy DPP party. God is watching all of you demonic chiefs. Kabazamawe is pompous and always posing big with threats to those feeling they are marginalised. Mwakhala mukwenda na Sabira muvigawa kuswita zinyama munthowa yavimbundi. Mose apa mulikukomwa nakachibungu chifukwa chawendezi na kupapaska tumwali. Mwazgora zina la Chikulamayembe kukhala lakulyera. Kabazamawe acknowledged the mistake by the government for omitting other speakers but does not ask them to apologise. Nyondo is our own. This Lambya or Tumbuka naming is junk. We cry the same, we suffer the same. The draconian rules by the DPP affect all of the northerners wholesale. We are one. Kabazamawe is the most useless chief who is always bent at seizing an opportunity to his advantage. What if all the SYNOD followers demand Kabazamawe to apologise for denigrating their Leader. DPP and APM are stubborn with draconian rules e.g. Quota system. Killing our children slowly. They have anything northern. They are not even ashamed to come to a Tumbuka funeral. Akuti aPresident ali ndi chisoni kwambiri ndipo sangayankhule. Shame with your CROCODILE TEARS!!! You block our children into public learning institutions with your selfish policies and then you come to the funeral of their leader pretending to be a caring father. If you indeed care for us, let our children with deserving scores go to public universities. Thank you northerners for coming up with this popular nyasatimes online media. Ena akulowanso pompa kumatukwana aTumbuka opanda manyazi. Yambisani yanu. APM do not be fooled, northerners are angry with you. The best you can do is at least allow their deserving children sail through to universities and not continue coiling yourself in a cocoon.
I agree all this mayhem happened coz of these chiefs. Kabazamawe and his colleagues shld apologise to the Chikulamayembe family and the people of Rumphi.
It was a well calculated move. Initially the president had delegated nankhumwa but changed in the night. It was a move to gag Rev Nyondo and Chakwera not to speak. So people should not be surprised at the backlash.
These two Reverends have a personal hatred over the Mutharika family I think. They are always against the President for unknown reasons. What they should know is what they are doing is not biblical at all because the Bible teaches us to respect authority. They should be the first ones to know this as men of God. Why did they decide to demean the president like that? Is it because the president is too quite? You crossed paths with the Ngoni chiefs now it is the Tumbuka chiefs and then it will be with the Ngone chiefs nde mudzafalitsa uthenga wabwino bwanji mukayambana ndi eni nthaka?
Well said. The Bible demands respect for authority. Leader of opposition, General secretary and VP are all authorities. It didn’t say DPP authority
True men of God never worship idles as Eduardo does, Mourning is for everyone, at the funeral nobody cries for another one
Nyondo usapepese iyi ndi proganda ya DPP achita kuwudza mafumu kuti azenene zimene izi, Shaa!! shame on you DPP
kkkkkkkkkkkkk Nyondo and Chipofya are really Malawian who will not arrow useless thing to happen on their presence, these are really man of God, what should they apologising to you Useless Tumbuka, Moti Jappi wakusinani kuti mulembe kalata yakuti apepese nde mwangozivutatu athu ake simkkuwaona bwinobwino kkkkkkkkkkk Thumb UP MR NYONDO AND CHIPOFYA< DONT FEAR ANYONE WHETHER IT'S A PRESIDENT OR MINISTER KAYA NDI A FUMUWO AKAGWERE
Nyondo is a die hard supporter of DPP. He is the only one with a blue gown of all the men of God in the country.
Why did he not give space to Rt Honourable Khumbo Kachali, a leader of a political party as well to speak? Anthuwa adya zambiri za Chakwera ndi Chilima.
The chiefs at the funeral accepted that Government was wrong and said that this will not be repeated again.
Let them write the Government to apologise otherwise our Tumbuka chiefs wakutikweza soni.
Mungoliwa is eating more money than what u have received.
Bravo to Rev. Nyondo and Chipofya for rebuking the system of politicizing funerals of prominent figures by the DPP led Government. The DPP should learn to put aside political differences at funerals and mourn the dead with dignity and unity as MALAWIANS. Those other political representatives were cordially invited along with APM himself. Manong’onong’o pamalilo munvekele, awo ayi, awo ayi, awonso ayi achotseni pa pologalamu ndi otsutsa boma! Kkkkkkkkkk They deserve to say a word at such a function. Ndale zadzizondi mpakana pamaliro for what????????????????? Olo manyazi mulibe????? Come May 21, 2019, you’ll see chomwe chinameta Nkhanga Mpala!
By the comment of chindele zeleza I now agree that names play a considerable role in the holder of the name. To me I suggest we add chakufikapo to chindele zeleza’s name so it should read, Chindele Chakufikapo Zeleza. What makes chindele chakufikapo think that it is right to politisize chikulamayembe’ funeral ceremony? Why did the govenment allow the president to speak first before others who were on the list had spoken? This was pure politics at a funeral service which the church did not want. Ngati akufuna zimenezi adzapange Mutharika akadzamwalira not a chief because a chief represents people of all political parties while a president is for party followers. The synod as leaders of people of God does not want politics to affect za mu mpingo wawo and always preach tolerance to its faithfuls thas why they arranged that everyone including the opposition should speak because at the ceremony both anti and pro government pple were present therefore I see nothing wrong in the actions of the church leaders. The president must realise that he is a leader of the country not a church leader and must respect the church leaders iin just the same way he would church leaders to respect him when it comes to government related matters. So you chindele chakufikapo you must stop thinking the way your name sounds or otherwise change your name to Wiseman Zeleza.
politics in nyasaland
Problem when clergy expects democracy form goverment and fail to abide by tenets of democracy in the elections to leadership to positions in the church.
Azaweluza mwini wake if these two pastors are saving the living God,pamene apezeka pamayenera pasokonekere mmmm zovuta azitumiki azolinga masiku otsiliza
Men of God….what does Jesus tell us?
Two obstinate and stupid reverends of Tumbuka origins, driven by their indigenous thengere logic disrespectful of the traditional rulers in death or alive. Want to be respected as men of collars. What a shame!
Mafumu ghambula vinjeru agha. Seeeh
TOUGH LESSONS FOR THE STUBBORN DPP IN THE MIGHTY NORTH.
I have learnt one thing in this world When a blind person leads blind people it becomes a blind situation. What happened at the funeral was just a spiritual confusion. This is how the church loses direction. Jesus said do not look for heaven in the sky because heaven is within you.
Its you who have loss direction not the church. The church will be there for ever but these politicians will go. Remember we had people like Bakili where are they now whilw the synod its still there.
It is sad development to see that the so called reverends cannot apologies. The bible teaches us to. do so. Romans 13:1-2, 1 Timothy 2:1-3, Titus 3:1, 1 Peter 2:13-14 teaches us to respect rulers, kings, governments, those in governing authorities. David, the great King of Israel respected Saul . Why is our modern so called men of God feels they are superior that they cannot respect those in authority. The chiefs has power to ban them operating in their areas, and they cannot do anything. I remember once upon a time , the Ngoni King , Inkosi Ya Makosa Mbelwa , warned them. It is not good when people who are considered messengers of God start showing off their muscles. The bible tells us of Lucifer, who was once upon a time an Archangel responsible for worship who failed due to pride. What am seeing is pride in Levi Nyondo and Chipofya. They have no repentant heRt because of pride. God like the humble and he resists the pride.
No need for apology, they were right!
Nyondo and chipofya are stupid.or idiods or mad. Kondi atumbukafe bwanji. Anzathu ku NKHOMA synod and Blantyre ccap sapanga zachamba ngati zimenezi. Ukufuna democracy pa maliro. Iwe NYONDO iwe ufiti kapena chani. Mukuwononga dzina LA mpingo wathu. Mutule pansii udindo chonde. Be like NKHOMA synod. No wonder the two synods akutulusa nyimbo zabwino za MULUNGU
. Chimwemwe Mhango anachoka bcoz of u
But that was good so that wolves in sheeps’ covering (skin) as stated on Mathews 7:15 can be visible in these final part of days. If it were not for incidences like these how would we recognize them? That was not a political party function, actually Nakhumwa simply spoke as a line Minister and on behalf of the President (not as DPP/Party) Now this synod has every reason to be ashamed for its all-time combative stance. They fought Nkhoma synod, they fight among themselves, they fight with government, they fight with chiefs. They are just like sodium hydroxide (NaHCO3) which react with virtually anything. Shame. Visible sign of ends of days.
Reverend of artificial color unfortunately form Tumbuka.
Reverend Nyondo is a big-headed fool who thinks his authority is next to God. He has no respect for the current government out of tribal hatred. Chilima is VP and claims to be part of government, so, there was no need for him to speak during the funeral. Nyondo and the other idiot need to apologise for disrespecting the late Paramount Chikulamayemb, the local chiefs and all of us for disrupting the state funeral.
Politics is at the centre of everything
Next time don’t involve the Church azizalalikira a Pulezident anuo si mwati State Funeral .Chikulamayembe was not a Coward like most Chiefs who think they are Employed by the Ruling Party.That’s why his Subjects bought him a Car as a gift, he commanded so much respect.Mafumu mukapitiriza khalidwe limeneli you will lose all Respect and Remain with only Names.
Chiefs have been sent and pressured to ask for this apology. I love Livingstonia Synod, I wish my Synod was like this one.
Our synod is not as stupid as livingstonia.
You may not like the president but he is still your president and deserves some respect. The synod acts like they own the northern region and northerners.
In all this who will be the casualty?….. Yet to see
Which Chiefs that shud be respected these corrupt Rumphi ones? It was the late Chikulamayembe who couldnt be bought. U think Nyondo & Chipofya are fools they knew govt came to monopolise or look like samaritans & APM was in bad books with late thats why church were putting the record straight so the public judge who is the oppressor or the confussionist.
The president should have diffused the situation easily by allowing all to speak, instead he chose to throw his toys out of the cot and threatened to walk out of the funeral if anyone allowed Chilima or Chakwera to speak. Zero leadership and clearly senile.
CALL FOR A REFERENDUM SO
THE PEOPLE CAN VOTE AS TO APPOLOGISE OR NOT — DON’T JUST IMPOSE EVERYTHING ON THE POOR MASSES NO NO NO !
Za ziiiiiiiiiiiiiii. Maliro anali a tchalitchi awa not vimbuza. Chiefs have to be careful because very soon chiefs will become irrelevant in the society with urbanization and people becoming more educated. These days it’s the acts of parliament that take charge not za ku dambwe or vimbuza or u ngolongoliwa. Do you think youthful presidents to come will recognize mafumu? The church will remain strong. Maliro a mpingo amalemekezeka.
it will take a long time for chiefs to llose power becoz of urbanazation. check even in urban centres chiefs have more power
Mr Kawazamawe shuld have known better that it was not incumebent on him to cause the mayhelm that he did.
He should have known better that governments come and go and he will still remain a so of Rumphi
He should have known that what the clergy demanded was only fair and that was the spierit for which the chursh should stand for
He should have known that they fact that the eurology was prepared without the consultation with the church was a big mistake which even the Chikulamayembe himself should not have have condoned.
In fact it should e the Kawaza mawe himself who should have apologised for snatching the speaker from Nyondo. This was uncalled for and never has this happened not even when Bingu was the president of the republic.
The Principa Chief Came around to accept responsibility for exclusion of the Church in program lay out. The principal chief then apologized and ASSURED Synod leaders and all people that “vizamuchitikaso yayi”. Therefore, – CASE CLOSED right there.
This is sad development because chiefs and the Church were supposed to work together and not in confrontation. The president was innocent as he could not have directed the proceedings. This is the problem of politizing funerals when in real sense it ought not be the case
If the president was innocent he will punish the civil service cadet who removed the names of Chilima and Chakwera from the list for initiating the whole embarrassment. But I assure you he will promote him instead. The President is not innocent at all.
The President was not innocent. He let a golden opportunity slip past by not waiving protocol and letting the two opposition leaders speak. This would have made him look magnanimous and statesman. People would have clapped hands for him. But there h was silent and letting the row rise and simmer on it’s own. Of course that is typical of APM. He never solves problems. Remember the Unima saga in the past and the divisions in DPP that led to the current split.
I wonder why it is always Nyondo and Chipofya who are controversial in all events happening in the North. In the first place, it is a mistake to include the two stubborn Reverends in important functions. It was better to advise them from the start that they should pave way for other peaceful Reverends in the North to take part because they bring confusion. Chief M’belwa warned them already that he could dispel them from the region but these two crooks are always adamant. The two Reverends should by all means respect the chiefs of the land or just chase them away.
Remember these are the two top bosses of the Synod of Livingstonia hence they can choose to delegate the program or themselves take over. Nobody within the synod can speak.
You are entitled to your opinion
Nyondo wana chikanga kkkkk! Mukusuzgika waka imwe, Nyondo wangaphepesya yayi! Wakatondana na Ngwazi Bingu wa Muntharika (may his soul continue resting in peace) imwe ndi ndimwe anjani imwe! Dpp bootlickers 😂😂
Nyondo walije chikanga kweni uzereza na utchebe. Mxiiii. Chikatimbanizgaso nyifwa ya Professor Chirambo, he was arrested and later the so called Church and Society program blamed Government for arresting this fool of a reverend. To say the least; Nyondo is a CONFUSIONIST!!!! Mad person
uli chizeleza nadi
u must b very stupit Chindele Zeleza with ur Stupid name…………. Go to hell & fire upon uuuu Mxieeeeeeeeeeew
I suggest you’ve missed the message because this report is not in your mother’s tongue! Why have you decided to disregard the statement that and I quote: “……….Chimbizga Msimuko started it all! He directed all speakers to only acknowledge the president in their salutations…” Why did he do this? Why that direction and who gave him that direction? Based on the above, why blame Nyondo and Chipofya? Awanso awaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa. Mukuopa kapena kufuna kusangalatsa ndani? Za ziiiiiiiiiiiiiii
Mr Central, you have no idea about all this. You should have known better commenting on issues you dont. Your you so-called Rev Nyondo is a damn disgrace to the church, society and his own family. The programme on this day was well designed by the family and the State. The role of the church was to preach and comfort the bereaved therefore there was no need for your Rev to hijack the programme. And this idea of blaming Chimbizga Msimuko as the MC is a non starter. Msimuko was simply following the programme as it was laid down. The biggest problem with your Rev is that he thinks he knows everything and yet he does not know. That is why Msimuko took time to educate Nyondo on the need to observe and respect Government protocol. Next time; sit down and investigate properly before you start attacking people on issues you don’t know. Both you and Nyondo are ignorant. You may also wish to know that Nyondo in very un-pastoral in his approach.
Cadet iwe nawenso iwe, it was not the duty of MC to do what he did! Rather Msimuko’s duty was merely to inform the people on who was next to eulogize basi…………….. osakhala ntchito zimene anayamba za ukadeti zakezo………………….!!
Never they are innocent
did you hear about the euology protocal a day before the funeral?
@Chindele!!! Kudana ndi chilungamo. To begin with the initial press release from Government indicated it was Hon. Nankhumwa to represent the president at the funeral. then came a different press release indicating the president would attend the funeral. Was there ample time to communicate to all parties involved and taking part in the funeral programme.? It is Government that erred and its standard protocol that the president is briefed on every detail of a programme. Clearly these developments could not have surfaced if proper protocol was observed. Should we say that if someone dies and is accorded military honours then the funeral becomes government business.???? The chief that snatched the microphone is the one that caused drama…
Mr. Zeleza, you have jut hit the mail on the head. These two Crooks have destroyed the Northern Region. We are taken as arrogant people without principles because of these idiots. The Problem is they consider themselves as very wise and intelligent more than anyone.
If indeed there are men of God which I doubt very much should take the blame and preach peace. They have never impressed me in there teachings either.
It were my Grand father lying in state I would rushed in the house with a panga knife and send them away from the funeral. That was ridiculous to say the least.
No wonder they are always at loggerheads with Blantyre Synod. Useless idiots!!!!
KAUNDA, i will never say anything bad about the northerners or tumbukas again. I now know that there are some people in the northern region who have sane judgement. Thanks to you KAUNDA, you are a man of principles.
Being one person, when you are not impressed it does not mean all are not impressed!
Point of correction bwana Chidele Zeleza ,nyonda and chifofya stand for the truth. The reader of opposition and vice president should have both gave chance to speak according to the potofolio. The problem with cadets like urself you don’t know what democracy means. Late Chief chikulamayembe was chief of all people regardless which party he/she belowings. Just to remind u that in 1993 we voted multiparty democrancy therefore I don’t see no reason for u to blem the two reverends. They were trying to make things correct .
Foolish comment of the year
Chindele iwe ndiwe zeleza nadii zeru ulije vyolemba vyako vyalongola kuti ndiwe 10 pa 0 🤔
These two men are not controversial as you stated but they are cowardless and voice of the voiceless like you.By declaring that the funeral will be a State Funeral,it was a part of political because they knew that opposition leaders will be there also.It take stupid people like you as you are known here(CHINDELE)not to know the motive behind the move.It was a funeral not a state function.
