Zake Muluzi named Scotland’s 3rd strongest man
Former President Bakili Muluzi’s 26-year-old son, Zake, is Scotland’s third strongest man following a recent competition and the young man, knick-named “Malawi’s Monster” is now eying World Strongest Man feat.
In an interview with Malawi News Agency (Mana) via email, Muluzi, who lives in Inverness in the highlands of Scotland, said he emerged from 16 athletes who made it to the finals from regional qualifiers.
“This was my first ever attempt at this sport which surprised a lot of people,” explained Muluzi.
“I have been training for this sport for 6 months and by scooping 3rd position at Scotland’s Strongest Man I have qualified for UK/Britain’s strongest man which will be held in Belfast and it will be televised on national TV.”
The Scotland’s Strongest Man Finals involved six activities namely, Dead Lift, log Lift, Human wheelbarrow, Car walk, Loading Medley, and Atlas stones, according to Muluzi.
“In Dead Lift I managed to lift 350kg, in Log Lift – also known as overhead press – I managed to lift a personal best of 160kg which became the Scottish new record,” explained the 3rd Scottish Strongest Man.
He added: “In Human Wheelbarrow, I had to push a purpose-built wheelbarrow with people in it weighing 500kg, while In Car Walk, a real car was strapped to our shoulders weighing 450kg and we had to carry it over a distance of 20m.”
The Loading Medley activity required the contesters to carry 4 implements each weighing 120kg over a distance of 10m and load them on to a platform; while in Atlas Stones the athletes had to load stones ranging from 130kg to 200kg onto platforms.
“Throughout the day you got points in each of the events depending on your performance,” Muluzi explained, adding, “I’m impressed with my performance so far and hopefully, I’ll continue to do so at the forthcoming UK/Britain’s Strongest Man competition.
“I hope to build on this achievement and move towards competing in the World’s Strongest Man competition – that’s my ultimate goal.”
Muluzi said his favorite sport had always been American football but seeing that he was naturally strong and always went to the gym, he thought of giving it a go and participated in the Scotland’s Strongest Man competition which gave him reasons to move on.

I envy you Monster Muluzi!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!How many chickens and goats do you eat a day?
Za ziii , lets talk about real business here
Zake is putting Scotland on the map. Not Malawi. He is Scotland based. He was not sent there by Mw olympics
This is grateful, he’s putting our country on the map. Atupeleyo nsiyeni azipanga ndale zakezo koma Zake is stronger than him.
This is grateful, aliyense mulungu adampatsa ntchito mosiyanasiyana. Asiyeni Atupelewo apange ndalezo.
oooooh kkkk. Cashgate is really helping
paja mwati mwachokela mai ati ati sitinamveko zainu
M’mimba ndi mchipala, pangani zimenezi basis chinenepetsa nkhumba sichidziwika.
So Zake Muluzi is Scotland’s Third-Strongest Man. Many Scots think that Nicola Sturgeon is their Strongest Woman. She is tiny compared to Zake. I guess the the criteria used to judge strength in men and women are different.
A strong woman is expected to be able lead a country while a strong man is expected to be able to lift 350kg.
A strong woman cannot be replaced with a fork-lift truck; a strong man, on the other hand . . . .
if you have nothing useful to say, then don’t say anything at all. your comparison makes no sense at all. well done zake
Atupele asiye ndale naye azinyamula zimenezi kkkkk
Zake u are awonderful man, keep it up

He all had the nutritous food in Malawi while 99% percent of Malawian povos designed by the greedy system could not afford a decent meal.That’s the only thing that he can do in Scotland apart from attending classes in lifting heavy metals and become a bodyguard for his aging father.Nanga bambo kukhala ndi kukhala ndi 1.7 billion kwacha mdziko losauka ungadyenso ka kapenta?
Congratulations. Zonse ndi za Team leader Atupele.Enawa mu will mulibe and they are not close to their father. Ana a Muluzi aku chibwenzi nthawi yanu ndi ino. Sitikufuna milandu a chair akazapita ngati zimene ndinakaona kwa Bingu kuja ayi
Really,we are proud of you as back home could not look fit with famous bonya pa Mbayani market. Oh,if we put at Songwe border, the Taifas won’t touch our beautiful lake.
