People with albinism are living in fear in Malawi due to an increase in killings and abductions of albinos. Some people are also tampering with the graves of people with albinism to exhume their bones with the aim of selling them.

This has made several stakeholders in the country to discuss sound ways of curbing the inhumane act.

Such stakeholders are the government institutions, Non-Governmental Organisations (NGO) and churches.

  2. Do you discuss with criminals? Why don’t you just go straight and deal with them? If these people can manage to take someone’s life with no mercy, do you think they have time to listen to your civic educations? Please police help these albinos. They are your fellow country men and women.
