  2. lets make one Africa lets unite like the US and the other big countries they thout it wise to join and make one world, one currency no passports and moving all the areas freely where are these thouts

  3. the most important aspect of this issue is how they got deported where they raided like they do in joza ,where they stopped searched or raided like in Botswana or they had improper travel documents.if its like so then proper protocols calls for them to deported to home country.if they get stranded cause some one doing trafficking s mission gets aborted then where can they be kept.its so unfortunate the Zim jails are no bed of roses .so its important for us to get proper facts or else the press can lead us astray. you think zim govt has such a luxury of chasing people around I don’t think so.

  5. thousands of Malawians are living in Zimbabwe freely I’m one of them papers are needed everywhere very story guys

  6. akuphuzira asiyeni sakudziwa Kut dzikolo ndi landani?akuwona ngat LA Mugabe zot ndi lamulungu adayiwara kale kale.

  8. Govt shud not just sit phwii. They shud also also start deporting illegal immigrants living in Malawi. We have Zambians, Pakistans, Tanzanians, Burundians, Rwandese, Lebanese etc living illegally. The abscence of IDs is not a reason not to identify a foreigner. We live with them in townships and surbubs. The problem with DPP govt is that it does not work, but only knows politicking. The police should move door to door in townships and surbubs to identify illegal immigrants. Journalists should ask minister of home affairs Grace Chiumia when this exercise will start. It is very unfortunate that Malawians are victims of deportations in other countries while govt allows illegal immigrants to be live here freely. Tanzania, Mozambique, Zimbabwe have deported Malawians. But how many nationals of these countries are living in Malawi illegally? Next we shall hear that Zambia has deported Malawians. Can govt wake up and start deporting illegal Zimbabweans, Tanzanians, Mozambicans and other illegal immigrants?

  9. well what has come about regarfing 3million ximbabwesns are indeed Malawianz and you are talking of 124…..amenewa anali illegall immigrants amakatani, poyi enafe abale anthu alipo konko phee kudy ma Dollar.. komA kaanthu.kuno slenfo anyanya at least lets chevh thrie identitie, komansi tione osmodzi nfi ma chima ena yamna kugulitds tanaousi ku chilombee/bt, nawondo achoke..have you gone to limbe lately chinese outnumber or inded matvh amwenyetu…

  10. The problem is not Jobs in Malawi. NO investors. In Zimbabwe despite economy there are more Jobs and investors. Look at people deported are Young and many men. Its sad. A young man need to work to get married and support family many can not do that in to days Malawi. And yet APM /DDP say they are developing Malawi. Development in what? Malawians are deported from everywhere. While there are full TZ, Zimbabwean, Kenyans,Zambians, in Malawi withiout legal documents and are doing businesses. They dont even pay Tax. Go to old town market there u will find what Iam saying. How many Nigerians are in Malawi doing business? Do all have papers? In my time young Malawians were encouraged to be in Village and farm. Farming is dead. Its whole generation which are poor. This is future of our country. I read Chakwela saying APM has failled people attack him. Those Who attack anyone Who say against government contribute to poverty of The nation. A nation were youths are jobless is a ticking bomb. For Malawi to survive we need to give young people education and Jobs. Anyone Who dos not see DDPAS failure u are insane

  11. So the majority of the people deported from Zimbabwe are from Mangochi! As far as I know, these people do not like school and think that they can manage to do tailoring and sell second hand clothes and shoes in a forein country! Ironically, come 2019 they are the same people who will vote for our failed government that has failed to solve the economic problems facing our country, which is the same reason they went out of the country to search for a ‘better’ life. Mangochi people, come 2019 vote for people who can develop and uplift the lives of Malawians, not because they are your tribesmen! I hope your experiences in Zimbabwe will direct you in choosing good leaders in 2019.

  14. Shame guys, i always regard malawians as one of the most friendly nations on earth. I think mgabe is paying revenge on wrong people, our african leaders are the cause of all this poverty that makes people to become migrants. We must all unite to fix our countries, many women and children get raped and abused during these ilegal border crossing. One Africa.

  15. Our greatest crisis is that one of leadership. Zotichititsa manyazi zachuluka and we can’t afford to list them coz they are just ma symptoms of failing leaders. Chimpwirikiti……..

  16. Shame on Zimbabwe. How many of her people are illegally in other countries? The Zimbabwean government must forcus on improving it’s economy than wasting resources on foreign nationals.

    1. We are having more than 5 million Malawians in Zimbabwe stop talking about Zimbabwe. Robert Mugabe’s real name is Robert Matibili and he named his son Chatunga, i think those names are familiar with you that side. Africa is for Africans and let’s be at peace

  17. The government of Malawi never had IDs like in other countries.How can a police man, can identify if
    someone is aMalawian, Zambian, Zimbabwean, etc. This time since they have introduced the system of IDs, we shall identify these ousiders and will evacuate them. Every Malawian MUST have an ID, is important , from 1year to 100years of age. Other countries you can not move on the road if you dont have an ID. If not after 10 years to come Malawi will be full of strangers and alot of killings.

  19. THIS PROBLEM IS DUE TO OUR GOVERNMENT NEVER HAD IDENTITIES I.D. LIKE OTHER GOVERNMENTS. OUR POLICE CANNOT IDENTIFY WHO IS A SOUTH AFRICAN, TANZANIAN, BURUNDI, ZAMBIAN ETC. BUT SINCE THEY HAVE JUST INTRODUCED ID SYSTEM I THINK IN AFEW YEAR TIME WE WILL ALSO EVACUATE THEM.

  20. AMalawi pano muchangamuke. A lot of Zimbabweans mukukhala nawo muma komo mwanu mukuwadziwa bwino bwino kuti ndima shona but you don’t report them to authorities. A lot of Zimbabweans, Burundians, Tanzanians akumakulandani zintchito mwai yama business inu muli duuuu kukanda maliseche. Ndi izo muone mene amapangila azinzanu kunjaku.
