The former ruling People’s Party (PP) has expressed concern over the delay to conclude former president Bakili Muluzi’s corruption case.
Speaking to this publication, PP’s publicist, Ken Msonda, said it is very worrisome that it is now almost nine years since the case started and there seems to be no sign that it will be concluded soon.
Msonda said the most worrisome thing is that the Malawi government is still spending more money on the case.
“Funds that could have been put at a better use for buying drugs in public hospitals, buy the much needed maize, pay teachers’ salaries or even employ doctors and nurses, is being wasted and the government is failing to offer jobs on pretence that there are no funds,” worried Msonda.
He further attacked the judicial system of the country saying it is also being affected. He said instead of the judicial system concentrating on other cases, it has taken nine years dealing with one case which is shameful.
The publicist also suggested that the case is affecting the health of the former president.
“Naturally when one is going through a court case you have no peace of mind and psychologically affected. We are appealing to the ACB and other government institutions dealing with the case to conclude it as soon as possible,” added Msonda.
Msonda then listed other cases which he said the government is failing to conclude. The cases included the Cassim Chilumpha and Yusuf Matumula’s treason case, Friday Jumbe and Philip Bwanali’s corruption case, the murder of James Makhumula, the murder of Issa Njaunju and over 60 cashgate cases.
