BLANTYRE-(MaraviPost)-The High Court has ordered the reinstatement of Vincent Wandale on government payroll.

The court also ordered that government pays Wandale his salary arrears within 30 days from the day of his reinstatement.

Wandale, leader of People’s Land Organization was interdicted from the Ministry of Agriculture in 2016 after leading a string of protests for land rights in the country.

However, having fought his interdiction the Court has reinstated him with an order to government for his half pay during the period of interdiction.

The Court learnt government had gone against its own order for half pay as per interdiction letter.

Wandale was stopped from reporting for duties in 2016.

Ironically; in spite of the interdiction letter indicating about half pay; Wandale never received anything.
