‘We’re better united’: Kyungu hosts chiefs from south, centre on cultural exchange

Paramount Chief Kyungu of Malawi’s northern border district of Karonga has asked fellow traditional leaders not to bow down to wishes of some Malawi who want to divide the country saying  God has given him a mission to make sure that Malawi is one nation.

He made the remarks after a three-day-visit of paramount chief Gomani of Ntcheu and Senior Chief Ngolingoliwa of Thyolo he organized in Karonga district on cultural exchange programme.

Kyungu said he organized the function as one way of fulfilling the mission which God has given him to unite Malawi.

“When I was sleeping I had a vision and God has given me a mission to fulfill before I die and this function is the beginning of that mission,” said Kyungu.

Without making a direct reference to the calls of secession and federalism, Kyungu said he was very much concerned that some people want to divide the country “while we are God fearing people and all what we need is unity and love to build Malawi.”

He said the visit of chiefs from southern and central regions here in northern signifies unity among Malawians.

“This is also one way of maintaining our culture because if people forget their culture, they lack patriotism and love. So it is wiser that every ethnic group should be celebrating their cultural values every year to remind the young ones that Malawi is one.”

Paramount Chief Gomani concurred with Kyungu saying love and unity is the instrument to build Malawi not division.

“People can develop their country or district if they are united so what paramount chief Kyungu has done is the beginning of showing people that Malawians are one and in unity we can develop it not in division,” said Gomani.

Senior Chief Ngolingoliwa said: “we have learnt a lot here in Karonga and this should give people a picture that Malawians are one, if Chiefs are together why not people”

Senior traditional leaders from nothern region and Central regions are expected to visit Thyolo chiefs on 26 September on a similar mission.

  1. This is the works of the DPP. They are brainwashing the Chiefs to frustrate the wishes of the people of Karonga. Chief Kyungu has pocketed MK10,000,000 to drive his so called Gods call.

Kayelekala Iweee

  6. Alfred, you have gone too far on this. The Kyungu is pure royal blood of karonga. Yes he ran away from Kamuzu oppressive regime but that doesn’t make him less royal. You already said his father was Kyungu, that makes him also a rightful Kyungu. Kanyama, orton, yatuta. Chip embere, etc all run away from Kamuzu, did that make them less Malawians. All (some) came back when multiparty came.

    Yes Kamuzu didn’t like his father because the father had a few sons in exile opposing Kamuzu. One even rose to be Nyerere trusted advisor.

    The Kyungu chieftainship rotates amongst the nkhonde royal families. It is the mwakasungula’s turn now but next could be the turn of the mwanyongos, or mwangalaba or mwahimbas, or mwandwanga or mwanganda or karonga, etc.

    People are divided on the issues of federalism or secession and each person had his own opinion on the issues. The Kyungu is entitled to his opinion but that doesn’t mean he should be insulted just because he has a different opinion from yours.

    There is nothing to worry here if people want federalism, no chief or president will stop it. It is the DPP govt that is worried. So let the chiefs enjoy the DPP money, who can blame them? Easy come easy go!!

    Look at the big picture and open your eyes. Karonga and Tz , so Kyungu is perceived to be very important for the govt. But this DPP govt keeps on forgetting that the people are actually more important than the chiefs!!! The will of the people carries the day, not the will Of chiefs.

    So you federalists keep on campaigning for your cause calmly, peacefully and hopefully you will succeed!!’

  7. Malawi was divided long time ago. Now its time to make it official. Ke nako naga ya Malawi yikgaukane. Batho ba Malawi Le bowa watswale puleke ya bona. Batho Malawi Borwa jwale. Kutloba monate ka mokgo. Malawi kupalire.

  8. I HAVE NEVER HEARD NOR NOTED ANY MALAWI CHIEF TO SAY NO NOR MAKE ANY SUGGESTION FOR MALAWI WITHOUT APPEASING OR PLEASING THE PRESIDENT IN OFFICE. FOR THEM ITS JUST YES OR INDE OR YEWO BWANA DINU NOKA CHOSEN BY THE CREATOR GOD . , NOTHING FOR ORDINARY MALAWIANS EVEN THEIR OWN KIDS.

    HAHAHAHA SO WHAT THYOLO AND NTCHEU CHIEFS , KYUNGU BUYING FAVOURS FROM CURRENT GOVERNMENT.

  9. Akyungu basi imwe yayi ise tukhumba yaye kugawanikana muganiza kuti ise tingapulikilani mulupusa chomeni. Ise wana withu ku university ku secondary wasuzgikenge iwe uti yaye chifukwa cha ulyezi wako kikikikiki mwe fumu iyi kupusa mwe nipauli tumafumu utu tukakwendelapo bwenu sono pakuti twatumika na peter ise ni federal basi

  10. The power of our chiefs was diluted in 1912 after the colonialists realised that our chiefs mustered too much power in their areas of traditional power. This was done by putting in place a Native Ordinance that empowered the District Commissioner to choose a chief with the approval from the president. This is very stupid. Now instead of the chiefs fighting for the reinstatement of the power they are being misguided to fight against a democratic right. I am sad to see my young chief Gomani joining stupid things like this.

  11. Amfumu adyera ngati Mfumu Kyungu of Karonga apa nde mwayaluka chifukwa cha dyera la ndalama komanso dyera lokhumba mipando ya Ufumu!

    Mafumu mukudzitukwanitsa nokha chifukwa cha kupusa, munazolowera kulandila zinthu za ulele,mtima wokonda kulandila zinthu za ulele ndiumene umakupangitsani kumakamba za mkutuuu…

    Boma linayamba kalekale kukumangirani nyumba simutukukanso ayi! Pali cha nzeru apa, what is the purpose of Chief Kyungu receiving a Cow from Karonga District Commissioner? This cow is part and parcel of corruption! Tell me where did the Karonga DC got money to buy this cow and donate to Chief Kyungu?

    Karonga DC did you have authority from Ministry of Local Government to donate that Cow to this greedy chief?

  12. You guys you don’t know DPP government! It is good at corruption and cashgating. right know it is very busy corrupting thieves/chiefs all over the country so that they should reject federalism. Its only God who will help us deal with this situation. God liberated us from atrocities committed by Bingu mutharika, and He can’t fail with his younger brother! lets wait and see as the fight goes on!!!!!

  13. The same chiefs again are back at it.They used to deny multiparty and democracy,and they are ow at the forefront denying federalism.A Kyungu,if you see that you dont have a future,and that your years are close by,and you feel that you dont care about the future,you better stay quiet.Otherwise federalism will catch up with you.Just wait.

  14. Kyungu, you are very stupid. This is the only thing I can say to you. The rest of the good reasons why we want federation will not be understood by yourself even if we try hard. Your senses have been numbed by the dirty money you got from APM through Vuwa. Suffice to say you are really silly.

  15. Mfumu Kyungu,ngati wakhuta maphumu,kapene dzungu,usadziyese ndiwe mphungu!Kamutu kongotuluka chitungu kakuona ngati ife tikadali ndi khungu ndiponso sikadziwa chizungu!Takaoneni ka khungu,kothimbilira ngati gututu!Kutinamiza za Mulungu!Takaoneni kamsana kali pyunguuuu kupindika !ngati kagalu kachizungu kochedzera kunyera pa masamba amaungu!Bola tikadampatsa ufumu Lungu!

  16. Funded meetings in fear of federalism, northern, central and southern chiefs meet hahahha osangonena kuti paramount Gomani kyungu and one mlankho met hahaha musova, kamuzu anateroso pofuna kukana multiparty koma sizinatheke.

  17. However, we have to embrace all views for and against. There should no deliberate suppression of views from either divide. This is what is happening if government sends Vuwa to talk to chiefs, bribe them and castigate proponents of the federal system of government. It is my desire also that chiefs should be listening to what people want, other than expressing personal views and projecting them as being from people. We also know that all along, ruling governments have been asking chiefs to serve the government of the day. Hence they may not be neutral as such.Social ills like quota system, biased public appointments and unequal distribution of development projects are the ones fueling the current debate

    1. Which people are u talking about? Rev. Ngwira ndiye anthu ake ukunena? Dont u see that these are failed politicians? U need to see and use yr brain to make analysis of things. If it is important or relevant, why did Rev. Ngwira not bring it when he was holding a ministerial position during Bingu’s time (MHSRIP) or even JB time. Ooohhh, its now necessary to bring it becoz he is no longer in govt. These guys are not serious, i am from the north but honestly as long as its coming from these political prostitutes, I cant side with them.

  18. IF WE HAD A BUSINESS TO RUN WE WOULDNT GIVE A DAMN TIME FOR THE SEE COMMENTS. WAKE UP START MAKING MONEY AND DEVELOP OURSELVES WE ARE BUSY PROMOTING THINGS THAT WE CANT DIRECTLY YIELD. INSANE

  21. No matter how much Malawians reshuffle, change or re-organise social political systems they will never achieve the real need i.e. economic development. Every Malawian mother, father and child is yearning for economic well being. Instead politicians offer them social-political change! Independence, multiparty democracy, now federalism e.t.c all social political changes that have no bearing on the economic wellbeing of our people. Why Malawians dwelling in Mulanje hate Malawians dwelling in Mzimba for example and vice versa is beyond me? Dowa vs Mwanza? Salima vs Rumphi why? Instead of focusing on finding economic solution breakthroughs we are back to focusing on social political issues.
    I would like us to focus on economic development and wealth creation based on our national synergy, shared history and culture. In as a much as a case can be made for federalism in Malawi and it is a plausible case, my argument is once again we are missing the opportunity. Instead let us focus on boosting this economy which is stuck in twelfth century Europe! This country is not in the modern era! This country is not in the iron age! This country is not in the computer age! This country is stuck with cave mentality where instead of industrial development people think the enemy is the one who dwells in the cave next door! Only now “cave” has been replaced by districts or regions. We are one people. We are one nation. What is needed is LOVE and sound economic development policy to lift our people from abject poverty! Don’t rally the people into another social masquerade that will lead them to no economic shift from their “uncomfortable” chairs of poverty. How is federalism an intellectual brain wave to cure economic retardation ills? While we are at it, we might as well go all the way and split the country into villages. That village nation will also go bust! While with development (and there is a secret formula people for development) we create over 10 million well paying jobs for all Malawians. Get rid of dust. Build Sky scrappers cities from Chitipa to Nsanje. Every district will have multiple universities, industries, institutions and descent roads, rail and airlines. That is the vision we must aspire for not squabbling over who touched my rug. This is school play ground stuff! Malawi is endowed with the intellectual capacity to unite and develop this country!

    1. Yoou must be jocking! writing all this sensible stuff for Malawians? wasting your time. The most educated Malawian living in Malawi is a savage. No two ways about it, so what more with the majority who have not touched a pen in a meaningfull way?

  22. A big scone in the mouth of chiefs ,what a shame! If you are failing to equity development activities then what next? Federalism is the answer.Why are you fearing federalism?

    1. U r a big fool, honestly. One is failing to develop his own family, village and u expect him to develop a region? nonsense! U dont need to blame the govt., blame yrselves, period!! As far as I know people, once the federal system is in place (which is remote), they will start fighting over on the districts having more leaders in power, which districts are getting more development and so on and so on. And oyambitsa ndiomwewo a Rev. Ngwira ndi their colleagues!

  23. if you think that kyungu can change the north its a lie, kyungu have been bribed by the government and what is the point of inviting chiefs from south, we want to inform you kyungu and your stupid government that we will not stop this exercise until north becomes independent.

  24. Dear kyungu clear shown that you are now driven by politics. The guests were from ntcheu and Thyolo. Even common sense can tell that Chilima(from ntcheu) and apm(from thyolo) each sent a cheif to convince u. for your personal gain you strive but likalemba lalemba ubwerera ku Tanzania mwawe tikaiphura Nyika republic or just get you relative and stay ku thyolo konko

  25. I will keep these pictures to show my children that these were the people who used to deny you the freedom you are enjoying today.The education you are getting is after we went through these people in the picture.

  26. Something doesn’t add up here: the visiting chiefs are from the home districts of the President and his Vice. And then the timing of the visits:soon after hearing calls of federalism and/secession? Mukunamiza anatuu!

  27. Clement Mwakasungula who is Kyungu now is a learned person but who is coward and corrupt. People from the north do not want to divide the Nation but it is the wish of the president that this country need to be divided. First his brother Bingu told the Nation that the region only contributes less than 20% to the economy as they result he introduced the quarter system to get rid of all sons and daughters from the North who would have been selected to University and dump them in their villages. The government now is no longer employing people from the North. Our sons and daughters are being sent to community secondary schools. Yet Kyungu is saying the country is united.Viva Mzomera Ngwira, Viva Mkandawire,Viva Mwenefumbo. Let these idiot chiefs be removed. First to be removed is Chikulamayembe because the post he is holding now is for the Luhangas.Kyungu must be removed now he is useless. Northerners work up and let us go and build our New Nation.

  28. Paramount Kyungu, no one wants to divide Malawi except you and the likes of Vuwa. Federal governng system has been tested over many decades in America, Africa and other continents. There is emperical as well as theoritical evidence that federal syetem of government engages more citizen participation in political governance besides promotion of more equitable sharing of national resources. You can learn this from Americans and since your President is there right now you can as well advise him to pick some lessons from americans rather than just roaming the streets of NY. The more you oppose federalism the more ridiculous and medeocre you sound. Atleast you have some level of education that should help you understand what federal system of government is.

  29. Thi is bullshit,God shows vissions to bad chiefs like u only to tell them that they ‘ll b punished on such time by the very same pipo u claim to b urs.pipo wl destroy u any time soon that is the meaning of ur vission.

  30. This is bullshit,wen did God starts showing you vissions? bad chiefs get vissions from God only to tell them that they wl b punished on such time.so this means pipo wl destroy u not very long frm now.that is the meaning of ur vission.

  31. Whatever it takes, Federation is our answer. Mafumu dzidyani ndalama za misonkho yathu, but know that Malawians in the North an Central need federal government nothing else. Our MPs, please call for a referendum . We are ready to voice out through a ballot.

  32. Can anyone tell me the benefits of Unity, unitary state? Kyungu says we are better together, how?

    Even the many advocates of Unity have not listed down the benefits that the so called Malawians accrue from this unity. Most of them result to threats or useless slogans.

    You hear comments such as the North and, recently, the centre will not be viable. Tumbukas can go back to their region, Malawi is too small to split up, etc..etc. They have not listed down one justification for Unity. The proponents of Unity have already lost the argument.

  33. Just as few misguided scots,such is the case here in Malawi but what should be microscoped is the fact that moneys will be wasted on obvious outcome.Democracy means, dictates of majority in respect of minority,so thats,in democracy numbers matter most.We have important development iniatives to spearhead than this post electoral insomia which is intriguing three quarters of illiterate but business oriented Malawians-business unusual!!!

  34. Ndiye tawaonani ti mipando timene akukhalirato,ndi ma tebulo,komanso ti nsalu aika mmwambato,just showing kuti anthuwa ndi amphawi ovutika,umphawi uli thoooooo,koma wina akuti inu,ndalama za boma zikuyandikireni,iwowo akukana.Kikikikiki,eeyaaa,kubadwira ku Malawi sikufuna guys,its just fate.Sofa yodyeka,its this mindset of Malawians that makes this country poor.We have been poor for the past fifty years because of such resistance to change.Inu,tawonani patsogolo pa ka sofako,clearly showing that these people are poor.Koma akukana ulamuliro umene ungawatukule,whats that?Kukakamira umphawi?

  35. WISE WORDS FROM OUR CHIEF. CHONDE DO NOT LET THESE STUPIT POLITICIANS DIVEDE US JUST BECAUSE THEY DO NOT HAVE A POSITION YO NONA IN GOVERNMENT. YOU KACHALI WHEN HE WAS VP WHAT DID HE DO ONLY TO ENRICH HIMSELF . KACHALI CASHGATE .MZOMELA NGWILA FOSEKI. KOMA IWE NGWILA YOU ARE ONLY INTERESTED FOR YOUR OWN STOMACH THE TONGAS DO NOT LIKE YOUR IDEA THIS IS NOT WHAT ORTON CHIRWA , KANYAMA CHIUME FOUGHT FOR. WHEN YOU WERE NOT EVEN BORN.

  36. KYUNGU!!!!! YOUR DAYS ARE NUMBERED. YOU HAVE EVEN STARTED RECEIVING COWS FROM THE GOVERNMENT. WHO SAID FEDERALISM IS ABOUT DIVIDING THE COUNTRY.

  37. WISE WORDS FROM OUR CHIEF. CHONDE DO NOT LET THESE STUPIT POLITICIANS DIVEDE US JUST BECAUSE THEY DO NOT HAVE A POSITION YO NONA IN GOVERNMENT. YOU KACHALI WHEN HE WAS VP WHAT DID HE DO ONLY TO ENRICH HIMSELF . KACHALI CASHGATE .MZOMELA NGWILA FOSEKI

  38. YEA ONE MALAWI ONE NATION.WE DONT WANT PEACE.POLICTS SHOULD NOT DIVIDE MALAWI.OTHER MP’S WHO ARE BEHIMD THIS ARE ENVY BUT WHY THEY CALL THEMSELVES GOD FEARING PEOPLE?DONT LET MONEY HINDER YOUR VISION

  39. What stupid paramount chief according and making such nonsese comments about federalism.malawi cn not be divided unless u are the one to start.u hv said so allow ur subjects to speak

  40. Mmmm that visit from other central and southern region chiefs well timed huh. So convenient. DPP is really going all out on this one aint they? At least that shows the secession debate is reaching Ndata and he is having as sleepless nights as poor Malawians who sleep on empty stomachs, go to hospitals without medications, write standard 8s, form 2 & 4 with no prospects of tertiary education. Welcome to the real world APM.

  41. Continue licking the sandals of the oppressors Kyungu and stick to your gods. People want a better system of governance after the current one has failed terribly. What is your message on the QUOTA system which is discriminating against your own people?? Do you dispute that the north has been given a raw deal when it comes to development? And what does a God fearing nation got to do with a people asking for a system of government that promises a fair deal and is practiced in most most advanced countries with geopolitical set up like ours? You are the most dangerous sell out chief of all time!!!

  42. Kyungu is a fool of all foolishness,is it because of his age that he doesn’t care about the future? But even if its that, the future of his children matters more than his, actually than everybody’s. My advice to Kyungu and his fellows such as Vuwa and the like remain calm and allow citizens to debate healthily and draw conclusion to the matter other than suppressing the people’s views on the matter otherwise u will regret in the near future and it will be too late to.

  43. Let me say something here! Federalism is a form of decentralisation – its as simple as that. In other words it it centralises power at a lower level of central Government. federalism is not about land size, but rather demonstrates how Government wants to zoom the welfare of its citizens. Zooming in this case you need more power closer to people. For those why say Malawi is too small for federalism, lets reason this way; if we come with three provinces, Malawi will have at least 6million people in the Southern Province, 5million in Central Province and then 3million in the Northen Province. All these figures are higher than populations of Botswana and Namibia among other countries – so don’t say Malawi is too small.

    The fact is that federalism you create smaller governments with power to set laws and policies suitable for people in that particular province or state. When you too centralised like now, it becomes too complicated for government to satisfy the needs of everyone and that system of government retards development. Malawi could develop with federalism – of course it has its own challenges but we can manage them. Federalism will help in the allocation of resources, create opportunities for social and economic growth and diversity.

    More to come in next posting………….

  44. Kikikikiki,ignorance at its bestest….this Kyungu is not in the offices,he is not seeing the indirect chasing that Southerners and people from the central regions are doing to the northerners.He has not been briefed and told of the same,hence his ignorance of the broadest of daylights.Ife tikufuna federalism or seccission,basi.This guy will be caught unawares.History will be on your wrong side my friend,whether you like it or not,federalism will be implemented.Akuti they dont want to divide the country,is America divided?Is Britain divided?Is South Africa,Switzerland,Tanzania,Kenya,Belgium,Austia,are these countries divided?I thoughtb they are even more united than Malawi?These chiefs who are ignorant and dull better be schooled or eliminated from this land.Mwana Mmbelwa uja knows the truth,and he wants it,ndichifukwa chake akungokhala pheeee.Its us the young generation who understand these things better,than people who have a few years to live on earth.Awa mafumu ati podyera ma allowance ati ndi pamenepo,ndi a Vuwa Kaunda.You will just be remembered in the history books after federalism has been implemented kuti there was Vuwa kaunda and Chief Kyungu who opposed to Malawi’s federalism.You will just mentioned in passing.You will not be heroes.The main characters of the books will be Christopher Mzomera Ngwira,Enock Chakufwa Chihana,Dr Lazarus Chakwera,Jessie kabwila Kapasula,and all tnose who rose against the injustices of this country.

  45. One Malawi, one Nation!! I concur with the Chief and I am sure that most of us in the North do not support what the few are trying to advance. Malawi is a very tiny country. As such, how can you divide such a tiny little country?? The Chief is not even being used by anybody, but is mature enough to read the minds of the majority of us in the North.

    Woza Nkhata-Bay!! Woza Orton!! Woza Kanyama!! Woza Aleke!! ETC

  46. aii prophets in the bible r prophets of doom including jesus himself and tht is the speciality of thier call. Jesus prophesied against the phareeses. the city of corazine. the jerusalem temple. even about the doom that wld be there in the end times. list them all Isaiah, jeremiah nathan micah daniel and the rest of Gods generals were all prophets of doom. god aims at sending warnings to call for repentance and intercession. If there is a prophet who is specialised only in prophesying goodies doubtfull and for what anyway coz normally this is wished by everybody.the idea of calling prophets prophets of doom is the devils idea bcoz he doesnt want people to believe them bt it is 100% correct to call them prophets of doom bcoz thats what they r called to do. Dont just spend time in church study the bible and know wht God is saying.

  47. Northerners do not listen to this corrupt so called chief. Which God has given him a mission if I may ask this corrupt politician? In a democratic society we let people make their own choices. Thank you for expressing your views on this important issue, now listen to what the majority want.

  48. Kyungu is a stooge for politicians really. Most of your subjects are pro federalism so whose interests do you represent when you are making your nonsensical utterances. and by the way who funded this cultural exchange? search me

  49. A mfumu, maloto anu a Mvuwa Kaundawo mukhala nawo chomcho. Ife sitilola maganizo anu obowawo. Anthu okonda ndalama inu.

  50. Kamuzu used those tactics but bowed down to multipartism. We want federal govt now and that system fails we will get our independence, self declared or not we shall ve it. Who is Kyungu? Awafumbatisa ka 10 pin and kathanso kale.

  51. Chiefs, chiefs, chiefs!! Every government likes to manipulate chiefs. Just learnt chiefs appointed by JB have not been included in the budget.
    And the one from Kasungu seems was not involved these discussions, why? Is he still in prison? He was as loud as this Kyungu guy. Meddling in politics!!!

  52. Ngolingoliwa you may be together as chiefs but not with us. Gone were the days when people respected chiefs for their good behaviour now that chiefs are royal to politicians we no longer trust them and we’ll shock them during referendum. What kind of vision can God give you corrupt Kyungu you don’t have to abuse a good name of God Mr Kyungumale.

  53. It is wrong to equate federalism with disunity. True unity will only come when all Malawians see one another as equals and that will only come if authority to plan and implement development is devolved. At present northerners are treated as second class citizens with no power to have a say in the affairs of the nation. This is hardly a recipe for unity. It’s time for a change!

  54. Koma uyu DC wa ku Karonga ntchito akuyigwira ndithu. Dziko lija dakaniza ziwonetsero. Lero ndi uyu akupeleka ng’ombe apa. Speaker wa nyumba yamalamulo walangiza mafumu kuti ndi bwino amvetsetse bwinobwino nkhani ya za Federation kapena Secession asanayambe kupeleka maganizo odzilankhulira iwo okha koma nkumakhla ngati dziko lonse lalankhula! Zinazi mudzapsya nazo zala ndithu!

  55. If you want to know why our chiefs are behaving like betrayers, you have to read the history of Nyasaland and why the Chief’s Act was enacted in 1995 or thereabout. Government wanted pliant chiefs it could control in other words government wanted to control the village. Now what you see is a theatre arranged by Vuwa Kaunda. He is wasting our tax money to do this. But the issue of federetism is a national
    political issue beyond the limits of chiefs.

  56. This Chief wawonjeza The Queen of England never commented for Scotland to remain in United Kingdom she let people decide I expected our chiefs to behave the same.Let people decide Participating in this debate and especially showing sides indicates The Ngonde chief is being used.I feel sorry for our country we do not like one country we have problems and le us not pretend

  57. KYUNGU DID NOT CONFUSE MALAWIANS LET THEM HAVE A CHOICE, YOU ARE THE CHIEF FOR KARONGA AND NOT FOR ALL REGIONS OR DISTRICS,KYUNGU IF BOYS OF KARONGA ARE PARADING FOR THAT AND VERY HAPPY WITH IT, AND YOU COME UP WITH OPPOSITE WORDS, THIS SHOWS YOU ARE NOT IN KARONGA KYUNGU, CHANGE PLEASE YOU ARE THE ONE WHO WANTS TO DIVIDE THIS COUNTRY.
    DO NOT TAKE VUWA AS THE RIGHT MAN NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO.

    CHECK HERE:

    SECESSION ============ DIVIDING THE COUNTRY OR REGIONS, WHICH IS NOT GOOD FOR MALAWI FOR A LOT WILL BE DONE AND HAPPEN SOPLEASE AVOID THIS.

  58. The madness of tigawane Malawi, must be stopped for the paramount chief Kyungu he is the old man with wisdom. Many a times he has been sticking to chieftancy and bows little to political seductions. Where is Bakili Muluzi – the so called a chair? The tigawane issue is giving us who are away from home, you look back and hear peope talking madness tigawane, what next after kugawana? You don’t know what we are creating today for the future generation of Malawi. We live peacefully, marry from different cultural and religious lines without any problem. Brother n sister at home you come to the South even tax got a route to operate n given permit, at home we go anywhere anytime with oor tax just by a change of a board (ya Limbe) two minute the same tax (Ya Lunzu) the same tax (Nsanje Boma) you can not do this here/else where – this means peaceful country with peaceful people. My message to the youth, organisers are too save but we the followers we must take care zizatisalira.

  59. Here is some sober thought from the North. It would be wise to heed the chief’s advice. Those supporting secession have their compasses pointing to the wrong direction. Time to change direction!
    Please, do not belittle the chief by calling him names, just because you disagree with his opinion. Doing that is, simply, uncivilized.

  60. Hahaha Stage managed unity…Khyungu you can’t stop people’s wishes wachepa! Where were these chiefs before?

    A Kyungu which god has given you the mission to unite Malawi? god of money? Hahaha. .money really corrupts. Kungolandila mk2m basi maloto kutuluka a unity…koma inu. Dont lie mr in the name of God..you will die like Bingu..just be eating that corrupted cash. You Kyungu and Chikulamayembe are maniacs seeking cash. Who told you federalism is dividing Malawi?

    If the Lomwe president is telling you on the face Atumbuka conspired against him in treason case is that unity?
    Check all corners of Malawi from central to south how you northers are hated…is that unity?

  61. The DC and the Paramount Chief have been living together for long but this has been high time for the DC to give the Paramount “thief” a cow…yoyoyo! The world shall speak. The works of Vuwa “Chule” Kaunda.

  62. what else would kyungu do,, than protecting his chieftancy? We are not going back. with or without Kyungu support feralims will go ahead. Im glad central is on our side. it is a huge sign that we are heading towards positive direction

  63. Chiefs, chiefs who is funding these stupid trips? You were used on the flag, third term and many other things, do you have brains? Ufumu uthe chifukwa mafumu onse ndi mwanja wa aluna zidempete.

  64. Za ziiii. Za mabi. Zaku mtu……. Nyero first class. This is Vuwa tactics. Kyungu I has respects for you but for now I am throwing away that respect to dogs. You are another dunderhead chief. Chindere chakufikapo

  65. Mfumu yopanda nzeru, yoputsa.
    Federalism is NOT division, mbuzi.
    Federalism
    A principle of government that defines the relationship between the central government at the
    national level and its constituent units at the regional, state, or local levels. Under this principle
    of government, power and authority is allocated between the national and local governmental
    units, such that each unit is delegated a sphere of power and authority only it can exercise, while
    other powers must be shared.
    The term federalism is derived from the Latin root foedus , which means “formal agreement or
    covenant.” It includes the interrelationships between the states as well as between the states and
    the federal government. Governance in the United States takes place at various levels and
    branches of government, which all take part in the decision-making process. Federalism kuchotsa umbuli kyungu iwe.
    And keep on reading

  66. Chiefs from ntcheu,thyolo and karonga greedy idiots,why cant you just say peter,saulosi and kyungu the politician and you expect malawians to believe what you are phwising after being given ma banzi..kamwanakoso kayamba nawo za ufiti,malawians dont trust chiefs anymore.

  67. Useless Chief Kyungu of Karonga corrupting other Chiefs against Good Governance of Malawi…You greedy chiefs such as Kyungu you are the ones dividing Malawi because in your brute mentality you think a chief is above the Law and above State Presidency,this is why you alsways talk shit and nonsense about Good Governance of Malawi… The same bunch of greedy chiefs are the oones who were supporting the 3rd Term Bid of Grey Hair Bakili Muluzi and you are followwing his same idiotic political methodology of Corrupting Malawi and keep it undeveloped through Nepotism and unhealthy allocation of developments of Unitary Government which has failed to develop Malawi…You greedy Chiefs and DPP you are the ones creating Tensions and Conflicts in Malawi because you are supporting the Elections Rigging Government hence Electoral Conflict is not resolved in Malawi….

    Feuderal System of. Government will clean up this mess and nonsense of chiefs,Chiefs will be working to promote the Welfare of the People in their Villages and not indulging themselves into Politics…This Current Corruption of Chiefs by DPP Government is the one which creates conflicts at Village and Regional Level…Malawi will be united as one Nation only if Development spreads across the Country evenly!

  68. Iwe Alfred Munduwabo,,u are infact a big fool,hw can u attack a senior chief like that?,dont u knw that chiefs r the custodians of our cultures.Ur comments r senseless and too personal and I question ur reasoning.Go on chiefs and stop these evil ententions by some frustrated pipo in our society.

  69. Ive lost my trust in this Karonga chief. He was my friend but now he remains to be enemy for ever. To hell will kyungu.

  70. Za mkutu. If the chiefs are united does it mean the ordinary folks on the ground are also united? Theory ya bodza, can not be proved!

  71. of all the people its the northerners who should say no to federalism.if we vote for it onse tiapanga xenophobia azikagwira ntchito kwao konko

  72. Long gone are the days when chiefs represented the opinions of the people. We will not be coerced by any self shelving chiefs. This is a free world and let the voices of the people speak.

  73. Which God are you refering to you Idiot? Yes! you heard me right-IDIOT. Don’t mention the name of the LORD in vain. You think you’re more wiser than everyone? DYERA LIZAKUPWETEKETSANI BAMBO.

  74. Mr chief I think you are out of mind or drunk with DPP wine. Do not confuse us. Whether you like it or not we will fight till we Northerners are freed. 50 years of no development is very painfull to us. We cannot just sit and see abuses from Bingu & now APM. Ngwira na banyako wose we are behind you. Fight on! Nyika Republic woyeeeeeeeeeeeee!

  75. First, who funded this drama? kkkk 2ndly, What about the grievances of federalists? 3rdly, Who told them that federalism is kugawana dziko? 4thly Mwana Gomani, sukulu wamaliza kapena wathawira? M’mbelwa nanga ali kuti?

  76. Choreographed/stage managed unity won’t help this country.Thanks(three) chiefs we have heard your opinions now let’s hear the majority of Malawians through referendum on the federal/secession issue.

    1. Referendum imene mukufunayo ndalama zache muli nazo? Do you know how much money is needed to have a referendum?

  77. You are the only Refugee Paramount Chief in Malawi , you had run away from Kamuzu Banda’s politics and your father was deposed as a Paramount chief because of his comments too much in politics , he was a coward ,instead your mother suffered because of you idiot her sons. You made your mother to suffer and on top of that she died poor because of you. Expect to be diluted with politics . Why DPP using you idiot blind paramount chief to be in forefront of opposing people’s wishes . Ngondes were stupid to choose a refugee who spent most of his dull life in Mbwani Tanzania . You are more of a corrupt politician than a paramount chief.

    1. Khooooo!!!!! Khooooooo!!! Khoooooo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Nganya wayowoya iwe!!!!! mbwenu sono no more comments. Mwe tawina Karonga cha Kyungu ichi chitikhozga soni mwe!!!!!!!.

    2. A successful sellout is what Kyungu is. Trying to thwart democratic views of his people and diverging an important matter nationwide. As for Gomani, hohas forgotten his culture by wearing a military like suit because his father was a cook in the army, all I can say is grow up and respect your people. Ngoni tradition requires sacrifice for the people. Being lion hearted. Osati zako za usakhwizo.

    3. isn’t it what you Tumbukas are good at?? kukumbana mitundu?? if kyungu “ngobwera”, (as you view anyone who is not a tumbuka living in the north)why did you allow him to be your chief?? munthu akangonena maganizo ake olo akasankhidwa in a certain position, first thing that comes to tumbukas minds is asking the origin of the individual. Thats what we Malawians don’t like about you people. too much negative isms inscribed on your hearts. let the chief say what his views are, regardless of him being from the north, or from anywhere, what matters to us is that he is a Malawian. we don’t win any battle through aggression to different minds. Tumbukas, don’t worry you will win this battle, you will secede from Malawi, Thats what we all want, but please do it smartly

    4. You he he is an idiot today. I thought you Tumbukas have always praised this chief as being caragious, strong, and a true northern region chief? Today he is an idiot for not towing your line of thinking? This just shows that it is you who is an idiot and dull. You fail to remember that just yesterday you called this chief your hero.

    5. Hot tempers will not help Malawi, this is a bad article directed at Chief KYUNGU, Iam not from
      the North and one thing I respect the Northerners with is that they respect their leaders like Chiefs. Now if the Chief has a different opinion from yours, is not a warrant to castigate and throw all the garbage against him, in democracy we need the accommodate different views and different Schools of Thoughts. It was not by Accident that this man was trusted to be TA KYUNGU. There were many intelligent Ngondes but the people of Karonga opted for this man is not a mistake, they saw the deep rooted wisdom and fear of GOD, THEREFORe CASTIGATING HIM will not benefit anybody but instigate hatred and evil against him and his family, I trust the Almighty in heaven with protect the Chief from intimidation from people like Alfred Munduwabo, Lets be united as Malawians. It was the Northerners
      who have always led in the liberation of Malawi and most of them had one Malawi in their minds, people like Orton Chirwa, Chinula, the Chisizas, Kanyama Chiume in conjuction with some Southerners Formed The first MCP which liberated Malawi. In 1991-1994 It was Chakufwa Chihana, who led the rebellion against Malawi, his Vision was a bigger Malawi not Northern Region only. Malawi is still in transition and things may not be rosy at times.

      1. But there is no room in a normal brain to accommodate this foolish view by this mad Kyungu, an idiot, foolish beggar who can even sell the rights of his subjects for little money.

    6. I do not know whether people like Alfred know that in order to be become a federal state or to seceed there has to be a referandum. In a referandum there are always only two answers: YES OR NO.

      It is therefore very important to convice the voters to vote with you.

      It appears to me that the people that advocate federalism and or secetion have no tangible arguements apart from insulting those that say NO.

      If people were in doubt whether to say Yes or NO, reading comment like this, which has a very big following, makes the decision very easy.

      When the referandum comes, if you want people to vote YES, you will have to come up with better arguments that this.

      If Ngondes were stupid, Tumbukas stupid, Ntcheu Ngonis stupid, Thyolo Lomwes Stupid for being ruled by their Chiefs, Who do you think they will vote with? YOU? who calls them stupid?

      Do not cry, rigging when the vote says NO!! You are your own decampaigners.

      I can not vote in the same camp, on a matter of principle, as a person who writes such rubbish,despite the fact that I would very much like a fedaral state. I would vote No, just pecause peolpe like Alfred will vote yes.
