Solicitor General and Secretary for Justice, Janet Banda, has revealed that the Malawi government will not be bullied into changing the country’s anti-gay laws to embrace homosexuality.

While echoing Justice Minister Samuel Tembenu’s earlier remarks following a meeting United States’ special envoy on Homosexuality that Malawi will allow debate on the matter so that people are informed, Banda said the country’s position is very clear and that the so called anti-gay laws will not be changed.

According to published reports, the Solicitor General said there is a general consensus among the people indicating that Malawi is not ready to embrace homosexuality.

She however said that the country will try to prevent violence against gays and all other people who indulge in same sex activities, a move that follows remarks by People’s Party spokesperson, Ken Msonda, that all gays in Malawi should be killed by cutting off their heads.

  17. For even though they knew God,they did not honor Him as God,or gives thanks;but theybecame futile in their speculations § their foolish heart was darkened.,…………for they exchange the truth of God for a lie § worshiped § served the creature rather than the creator,who is blessed forever(Romans 1:21)-25

  19. All bullying is unacceptable and unnecessary…Work place bullying, what will he do about it? All bullying needs to stop. What will they do about work place bullies and bullying? I was also the only one he treated like this..All he needed to do was be kind, show kindness. I want to bring more awareness to work place bullying in 2016 to help others not have to deal with bullies for bosses. The laws need to change!!! What will they do about work place bullies and bullying, it needs to stop…I was fired 12 days before Christmas…
    I use to like people but a bully shot me down! Bosses should lead employees not Bully…Yes not from bullies! What about work place bullies?! Remember bullies come in all shapes and sizes….I was bullied by an adult named Jeff Ursino , my manager at Citibank in Carmel, Ca…after he successfully made me sick with nerves and caused my blood pressure to go up he fired me via UPS 12 days before Christmas while I was out on a workers comp pending case…my family will never forget the pain he caused us….and I haven’t worked since due to all of this.
    Jeff Ursino once told me that I couldn’t wear the hats I’d been wearing to work for almost four years with no problem. He said it was company policy yet there was nothing in writing. I called HR and they said there was nothing in the codes about hats. About six weeks later Jeff Ursino decided to tell me that I could wear hats again but only a couple days a week. I asked him what about the policy and he replied ” I’m in control” , it was his way of throwing his weight around, what a bully! He also threatened to fire me for job abandonment if I didn’t show up to work on a day I couldn’t work, my daughter was ill and he was already fully staffed. He put me on the schedule at the last minute to pressure me into working…a Bully at his finest. He also stated that I hadn’t worked on days that I had and I still have a copy of the schedules.
    Bullying needs to end and companies need to properly train manages to be leaders not bullies! What will politicians do about it? Nothing! We need to unite and do something about adult bullying and in the work place!
    I have two boxes of proof and I did document everything. When I realized that there is actually an Awareness month for anti bullying I decided to tell my story again in hopes of finding an organization that I can help bring light to this also very ugly issue!
    What I have mentioned is just a bit of all he did. No one cared or did anything about it. I wrote my leaders, congressmen , senators , mayors, city leaders, the president , attorney general, etc…everyone past the buck. Since then, bullying has come to the forefront and I want to tell my story.
    He is a father of 3 sons, still a ” manager” , on the board of trustees for a school district and I can’t help but wonder who he is bullying now.
    He had choices and he chose to be unkind, uncaring, not understanding, treated me like crap, ignored what others where doing, focused on me until he ruined me!
    ALL BULLIES NEED TO BE STOPPED!!!!! All companies need Bullying training and the manager isn’t always right! Only cowards bully other people! He didn’t care what I was wearing he simply wanted to show who was in control and bully me. The hats didn’t prevent me from doing my job nor did anyone ever complain about them, in fact I got lots of compliments from customers and a couple of his bosses and someone from HR, it’s was great until he showed up as a temporary manager. He just wanted me gone and set out to wrongfully terminate me. He couldn’t even write me up correctly and I have the proof. He couldn’t even fire me correctly as he broke California Labor codes in the process of firing me. He was simply unkind and heartless to me.
    Please grow up to be a kind, caring person. Never purposely make someone fear their going to loose their job for putting their daughter first, that’s what he did to me…and yet he is a father.
    Time to open their eyes and our leaders and change the laws. Speak the truth state the facts and have your evidence ready! One of the reasons I am doing this is because I have proof, my journal, the forms he used to write me up incorrectly. He was in such a hurry to write me up that the first time he wrote me up he used the wrong form, he used the second warning form. He threatened me with job abandonment yet didn’t know how that law worked. For some reason the universe, my God or what ever you want to believe, had me keep all the evidence. In my journal I wrote daily of what occurred at work, he singled me out. In four and a half years I loved my job 98 percent of the days then he came and ruined not only me but the spirit of that bank branch. He took away causal Friday and tried to take away cookies on Fridays for our customers. He said we all had to only eat in the break room but yet would eat at his desk and not say anything to the pretty blonde when she ate at her station. He took all my family photos down and claimed it was best for my family but allowed others to have their family photos out! A BULLY!!!!please share my story to bring awareness to work place bullying.
    The more I read the more I realize he was threatened by me. My reviews didn’t justify what he did. Several times I was asked if I was the manager as he stood next to me. The hat issue was just him being a bully, he ignored what others did and wouldn’t give me credit when it was due to me, he played it down. He snapped his fingers twice, said my name , pointed to the back room and said Damari in the back the very first time he ever addressed me. In the back room he said my reputation precedes me, that upper management had nothing but glowing reports about me. He asked why I thought I do so well and I told him because I love my job. He was a temporary manager, the branch was looking for a full time manager. Jeff Ursino was managing two branches during this process, I was trying to hang in there until we got a new one but he couldn’t wait to fire me. I’m understanding more about bullies these days, it doesn’t make it right but we need to pray for the bully.
    That’s was awesome, thank you for caring and reposting. I use his name and the bank and location to keep it real and honest. I have nothing to hide. I use to tell my kids’ if you don’t want grammy to know what you did then don’t do anything you’d be a shamed of because I will tell grammy the truth’ it really helped with their behavior. I once wrote him and asked why he did what he did and I also told him that I hope no one ever treated his family as he had treated mine, but I got no response to my email from him. It’s all true so it’s not slander. Have an awesome day, thank you very much. So sorry about what you went through, hopefully we can get others to come forth and share their stories. I honestly feel that the bully should be called out, if he/she was so proud of their actions then don’t get upset when we share what you’ve done. Please feel free to share my story to bring awareness to work place bullies and bullying, it needs to stop, the laws need to protect the employees and victims not the bully. Share my story please.

  44. Thats what we were expecting the Government to say.The government must stands on its own feet when making decisions.The government is well recognised when it takes into accounts what majorities are saying.The time that our government must be enticed or to be jerpadised by donors has gone.For how long are we going to depend on donors?Go ahead our honor solicitor general.Tell those who are coniving outside this country that they will assist us after complementing their harsh and abominations bonds, that we are not totally ready to do so.Stand firmly your honor solicitor general Madam.

  47. if they don’t want to help it doesn’t worry us only God iz our side and to say the truth the Americans we don’t need them anymore its better to be poor and serve the Lord. openly we malawians can’t allow that fake thing and once a gay is caught we are going to burn. tell the stupid donors we font need them

    1. The Same Bible Says If You Find Men Commiting Adultery Kill Them Both. We Must Be Careful When Quoting The Holy Scriptures. I Believe The Same Treatment Our Spiritual Minds Direct Towards Sin Like Lying,stealing Etc Should Be Exacted To Homosexuality.There Is No Higher Sin.

  91. The funny thing people don’t realize and the devil doesn’t say is the “the end of anything” devil can’t tell you that you will go to hell, he only manipulates people to follow him.

    Why can’t you you embrace the truth of the gospel cz Christ is clear when he says the “the wages of sin is death but the free gift from God is eternal life” then why do you like following stuff you are not sure of it’s end? Don’t be deceived brethren.

    All those who are enforcing gay marriages have their wives and husbands at home. Leave us alone with our poverty and God will take us through.

  94. Mr Peter Mathanyula,i Knw U Were Living In America,so The Solution Is,take Your Fellow Gays And Lesbians Plus Your Gay Rights Fighter And Go Back To Your America And Enjoy You #thanyulalisation,kuipa Nkhope Ndi Mtima Omwe
