UDF query Livingstonia Synod silence on on ‘vampire’ lynch mobs

United Democratic Front (UDF) youths in the north under the banner of Friends of Atupele Muluzi on Sunday attacked the Livingstonia Synod of Church of Central Africa Presbyterian (CCAP) leadership for being silent  on  lynch mobs who  continue to attack people suspected of being bloodsuckers.

UDF says Livingstonia synod general secretary the Reverend Levi Nyondo should speak against lynch mob

Police spokesman in the country’s Northern region, Superintendent Peter Kalaya, said over the past two weeks mobs had blocked roads, attacked strangers and vandalised the properties of business people, accusing them of either sucking others’ blood — supposedly a form of witchcraft aimed at helping one acquire wealth — or harbouring such people.

The villagers in these areas believe human blood sucking is a ritual practised by some to become rich. They also believe they are failing to catch the blood suckers because they use magical powers.

But UDF’s Steven Moyo said they were expecting synod general secretary the Reverend Levi Nyondo and moderator Rev. Douglas Chipofya to condemn the mob attacks which has affected region mostly.

The UDF youths leader said the Synod has a voice in the region because they have radio station and followers hence could help top civic educate the people about the bloodsucking myth.

“We wonder why Livingstonia Synod leadership is quite on bloodsuckers myth. We were expecting them to be on forefront in condemning it as they have been doing in politics. Through their radio and church which is around the region, we believe the messages would have reached many and by now many souls and properties would have been saved,” said Moyo.

On UDF future in the region, Moyo said that the party has the morale in the region and that they will soon hit the ground running.

This has nothing to do with Livingstonia synod, you UDF /DPP have the role to play too if are concerned citizens by stopping these people in believing these fake rumours and taking the laws at hand.

The Livingstonia Synod is simply an agent of devil. If you can GENUINELY and deeply reflect on the conduct of this synod, you shall agree with me that the synod needs deliverance. The synod leadership is not being led by the holy spirit at all and this makes all northerners raving and behaving like mad people. Alibe uzimu. Alibe umunthu.

Is UDF still a relevant political institution? Malawians are experiencing economic, social, and political problems today because of UDF. The closure of many companies due to foolish privatization policies by Bakili Muluzi, lack of investments, and the degeneration of Malawi’s hard-fought democracy into an authoritarian rule by Pater Mutharika are all due to UDF and Muluzi in particular. Does anyone need to be reminded that DPP started because of Muluzi’s selfish ambitions? He went for an outsider to succeed him without following leadership hirachy. Today Malawi is in deep trouble. Look at Atupele, a big time opportunist who is on… Read more »

Why Livingstonia Synod and not government? When did Livingstonia Synod become government of the North? Has government surrendered the North to Livingstonia Synod? UDF please know that you are in government and you, together with your partner in evil doing,are responsible for civic educating the citizens.

What type of a youth arm of a party is that to be raising such insignificant issue in these trying times of our country. Can that party be trusted to lead the country. Signs of loss of direction like fleeing headless chickens. Repent and you shall be saved.
