  1. Some of the fruits of Democracy: human rights, human rights, human rights…….. human rights of robbers.Never experienced this during my 31 years with Kamuzu.

      1. Your extension doesn’t represent my views. To me and my experience, there was a huge difference between Kamuzu and MCP.

  2. Even the kingdom of God suffered violence, and the violence take it by force. So if they can’t share it with us,keeping everything to themselves. That’s the way to go guys keep it up. May the good devil 😈 be with those who are still on the run. My only happiness is that your still from those stealing from us,so guys enjoy it you have just take what rightfully belongs to you.

  3. Looks like the burglars are testing if the defense is on it’s guard. Therefore, they decided to visit the Deputy Minister of Defence. That’s a message that some people are sleeping on their job . If was Chakwera I would have thought many times about the state of security in my country.

    1. To some K3M is quite alot but to others its not that much. Mind you people have different financial muscle some are in the class of V8 and others are in Mira class.

  4. Ife anthu ndiye tilindipothawira ngati. Chakwera ndiye Chilima inu ndiye mukozepo pamenepa dziko kukhala mu Ulamuliro wa Banana Republic ndiye mmene zimakhalira. Mziona mwakula mwatha kwankhalano adzakutemani.

  5. Why would a whole cabinet minister keep so much cash in her house? Ma allowance? Anyway, that’s besides the point …..

    To catch these thieves, think outside the box. APM has been very, very quiet lately, and we know his accounts are frozen. Exactly what has he been up to? He has “a propensity for compulsive criminal conduct “, says I.

    And then we have our beloved man of god, Al Haj Bushiri. Already on the run from the law and running low on cash, we wouldn’t put it past him that he’d pull a fast one to replenish his dwindling fortunes.

    I declare these two “the usual suspects “.
    They ought to be located and kept under constant surveillance. We ordinarily folks are not safe until these two are in the cooler!

    1. Uuuuuh my friend leave the two alone. The issue at hand is criminal so avoid make such comments. The police will do its job and mind you APM is a retired president and is entitled to his benefits likewise Muluzi, JB and other former vice presidents Malewezi, Chilumpha and Khumbo. So APM is not starving the way you may think but since every body needs other things yes in that aspect i may say he is abit affected but not to an extent of relating him with this issue. Musiyeni mwana wa eni wake chonde munamuyamba ndi kale its time for tonse alliance maso athu ali pa a Chakwera and Chilima. Remember during APM’s regime everything mumati ndi DPP and APM so what about today who is in power? Kodi a police akumenya anthuwa lero ali mboma la APM or Chakwera mwatani kunka ku ma demo because of police brutality. The way they are beating its the way they did during APM regime koma mu nthawi ya APM inali brutality lero si brutality be on the watch and our God sees all these things and you will reap. Sizinachitikepo in the history of this country kuti anthu adziyenda pansi ngati nthawi ya a tsamunda koma lero zikuchitika and tonse alliance is happy kuwawona azimayi, ana, azibambo, wokalamba akuyenda pansi bcoz ma driver apanga strike heeeeede shame on you tonse alliance. Ndi zimenezo munkayesa masewera paja akulu anati chili kunmnzako umati gwira nyangayo nanga inu mwatani tayigwireni nyangayotu tiwone!

    2. By the words you use in your comment, you portray an image of an educated person. How on earth can you think so shallow. You are the a retrogressive reason to the poor development to our country.

      1. Inu ndiine tugwirizana.
        He is an educated person and you are just the opposite,,,,,,,,,,,uneducated person🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

    3. Bwana Ngombwax koma mutu wanu umagwira ntchito bwinobwino? Nkhani yomwe mukuchitira comment yi nanga zikugwirizana ndi APM komanso Bushiri? Mukulimbaba ndi highly successful people who are many times not your match, kodi a Malawi nsanje bwanji?

  6. It’s a wake-up call to our security apparatuses, I have always recommended to those who have contact to people in high offices that in our country good wages are given to people who don’t deserve. I have said that our teachers, nurses and the police including the military deserve better actually high wages,not MPs,.the security are given a raw deal, and the other lot mentioned above. Simple common sense, supposing thieves manage to still 3million and start running then you send even 4 constables after them, if the thieves take 500000 worth of notes and throw up in the air, are sure the police will ignore the bird at hand and apprehend the thieves? I doubt.

  7. Matsotsi anu aja mumakawatuta ku Joni mmabasi aja ndiamenewa ayambapo zitchito zawo and this is just the beginning……mark my words.

    1. Kuyankhula kotumbwa ndi kwa uchitsiru ku John unamba ndani kuti kunatumizidwa ma basi. Aliyese anayendera ndalama yaka. Uwafunse a Chakwera wu ngati anasayinirako ndalama zokatenga anthu ku Joni. Ndiye kuti anakuberani ndarama mukuona nkumati anthu akutengedwa ndi ma basi walipira boma. Kodi palibe president open line kuti tidziwafunsa.

  8. The last sentence says and I quote “The unknown burglars wanted to enter the wing that houses the office of the Vice President and the principle secretary through the waiting room”. Firstly, this shows that the burglars did not enter the wing; secondly, the wing houses two offices, how did you know that the burglars were targeting Vice President office, what about the PS office?

    1. Inuso neinu a chitsiru zedi, mwina unali iweyo kukufunika ufufuzifwe bwino , hope you have more information to assist the police
