Reports reaching Malawi24 indicate that Malawi’s business proprietor, Reason Chitonya, who was the owner of Premier Bus Company, has died.
The death of Chitonya has shocked a lot of individuals as well as organisations including Malawi’s media.
One of them, Blantyre Press Club (BPC), a grouping of media practitioners from the southern region, has described Chitonya’s death as untimely.
According to BPC president, Blessings Kanache, the club is deeply shocked with the death and described it as a loss to them saying he was media friendly.
Kanache called on other corporate communities to emulate the example set by Mr. Chitonya who would not look at who to support in fulfilling corporate social responsibility.
“Mr Chitonya was always ready to work with the media, regardless of which media house the reporter came from.
“Premier Bus was one of the few companies which supported November 2015 Annual General Meeting. He was media friendly, and the media especially the Blantyre Press Club has lost a true partner who was available at the time of need,” said Kanache.
Chitonya died at Mwayiwathu Hospital in Blantyre.
A great loss to Malawi and Malawians

Its shocking because he was rich suppose same thing happens to the poor you will say it was time wow..!! Poverty is a crime and earth favours only rich pple this is fact…..
if you ask me i will say yes we are shocked with this mans death, he had money, companies, he employd pple, lets just say he contributed to the economy, wosauka ofcoz we cant be shocked, why should we?
very bad
very bad
Any death comes as a shock to individuals,families and community.There is nothing like being used to it and nothing like normal where life is lost.Death is shock to everyone who has life because nobody would want to die soon or later be it those gray haired persons.However, all individuals,families and communities could do to cope up with such shock is to accept that death is inevitable because our days on earth are numbered as such we are to be spiritually prepared to face it.Death would never come with a warning signal whether someone is a tycoon,a business angel,a president,a poor man,a commoner,illiterate or an intellectual because it does not have mouth to speak,ears to listen to the cries and prayers of the brocken souls,and eyes to see so that it can spare the rich and take only poor people and vice versa.Death is cruel to any living creature that walks on earth.Even the person who is dying is caught up with sorrow.So death is a real shock of life indeed but we only cope up with it with understanding that we can do nothing to avoid it when it is time to leave this world.

Ngati mulibe chanzeru choti mungalembe on this post kuli bwino kungokhala osayankhira, enanu mumafuna potchukira basi, is this the first person kuti alembepo kuti “alot of people have been shocked by his death”? Remember ena pompa are related to the deceased basi inu kumanyoza pompa, what’s that? Kumaganiza ngati akuluakulu osati ngati mwana wa standard 1.. To you analibedi phindu koma to others with the business that he had anaalembako ntchito which means anapindula so I think you have to respect the dead. Mawa mudzakhala inu anthu akunyoza m’bale wanu how are you going to feel? May His Soul Rest In Peace!
hey son dead people are not fit to be respected..jst to remind you sionse aphindu kwa awo angakhaleso aphindu kwa ena mining amene akupeputsa or kunyoza sakulakwitsa..I like ua idea
Oh are sure of what you are saying Kirsley Khansala J Chisale? Do you know how it feels to hear anthu akunyoza munthu oti wamwalira? So ngati munthu sanali waphindu kwa inu osangodutsa without commenting bwanji? Kapena kwanu enanu anthu samamwalira. Am saying this because I know how it feels to loose a loved one.kunyoza maliro ndikolakwika, what will you gain mukanyoza?
Imfa ya munthu wina aliyense ndi yowawa regardless of worth or poverty.
RIP malawi has lost one of best business men
You have not said where he came from and where burial will take place! The media is shocked because he could assist them in one way or another.
OMG!!! What a debate!
what makes him to dead?
When, how and where has he died? Investigate properly because he may be mistaken with his brother who died on the night of Wednesday @ Mwayiwathu hospital.
May your Soul rest in peace old classmate.
Akuti it is not true that he has died.
Remove the word Shocked! ngati kunali kulemera kunali kwake ndi abale Ake if sizitikhuza.

Malawi24 is shocked because he died before receiving yesterday’s bus conductors targets

May His Soul Rest In Peace.God Has His Ways.

Dats tym
well meaning malawians should be shocked because this businessman contributed a great deal to the economy; for instance family men who ply callboy business day in day out between llcity and bt. bus depot will have their income reduced per day if the deceased business liquidates.
