LILONGWE-(MaraviPost)-One of the country’s social media commentators Chiza Mkandawire has accused Anti-Corruption Bureau (ACB) Director General Martha Chizuma for staging fake arrests.
Mkandawire confesses that Malawians overrated Chizuma for the position at ACB that she is incompetence to handle the office diligently.
The accusation comes after ACB on Tuesday, August 16, 2022 arrested former Minister of Finance in the Democratic Progressive Party (DPP) led government Mwanamvekha over allegations that he abused his office by arbitrarily approving US$18,374,460 to Ministry of Homeland Security for the unlawful procurement of Uniforms and Equipment for Malawi Prison Service.
Mwanamvekha was charged with abuse of office and neglect of official duties contrary to section 25 B [1] and 121 of the Corrupt Practices Act and Penal Code respectively.
In a dramatic turn of events, Mwanamvekha appeared before the Senior Resident Magistrate Court in Lilongwe hours after being arrested and was granted bail proving to itself that there is selective justice in the courts, the rich are buying justice while the poor, no one can hear them even crying aloud.
Writing on his Facebook page, Mkandawire dared Chizuma to stop embarrassing herself and her organization, the ACB advising her that when she arrests politicians on corrupt charges, she should not inform the nation because Malawians are all aware that this is the old song, it will end.
Mkandawire adds Malawians know that Chizuma is just playing to the international audience saying she has a weak spine to prosecute high profile corruption suspects and is just ceremonial.
“So please, we are serious people not to keep entertaining your charade of fake arrests,” reads Nyirenda’s writing on the wall.
Currently, Chizuma is in court over leaked audio who is yet to formerly charged.
