Slammed by Chakwera.

Opposition leader Lazarus Chakwera is just not happy with the way state owned Malawi Broadcasting Corporation (MBC) is doing its work, most of which he says is solely misleading the nation.

In his New Year address, the Malawi Congress Party (MCP) president said MBC is not an independent media platform and is only being used to cheat the nation that things are normal when they are not.

He claimed that MBC has also become a platform where the opposition are castigated when they give vital advice to the president. According to Chakwera, it is sad to note that despite all the un-professionalism MBC portrays, regulatory bodies do not pounce on them.

‘’MBC (Radios and TV) have become a platform where the critics of the government are castigated. This is sad, we tend to wonder why the media platforms under MBC mislead the nation and get away with that,’’ he said.

Recently, Chewa chiefs stormed MBC where they attacked Chakwera for calling President Peter Mutharika a failed leader.

Led by Paramount Chief Lundu at Bridge View Hotel in Lilongwe, the press briefing was attended by 13 traditional authorities (T/As).

Their statement has been replayed over and over again on MBC and has earned the state broadcaster criticism.

Chakwera has since asked Mutharika to make sure that MBC, Anti-Corruption Burea (ACB) and other institutions work independently.

  15. one word 4 mr chakwela,4get about be a president of malawi,u will talk to the maximum but u will end up loosing everything

  16. When I see clearly, in my experience these pple 4rm the south are the ones starving koma amalankhulaso moyelekedwa kwambiri samaziwa kugwira ntchito zakumunda ndi aulesi
    kwambiri. Koma kuwauza zoswana prostitution eeee palibeso, pliz let chakwera alone had it been ngati maiko anzathu akuluakuluwa, I swear tikadakuthamangisani Ku central kuno am out

  17. Zinayamba ndi kamuzu the founder of the party which his ruling….am not on DPP but saying the truth in case abusawa awina azapanga use MBC yomweyo to attract peoples attention

  18. On the issue of a mad man breaking into the State House, is it not supposed to be a fortress? This nutter’s shenanigans will trigger a crazy MP into calling for security upgrades there. Maybe the nutter is a fake. Take him to the Mental Hospital for an examination. Security upgrades will only enable some people to line up their pockets.

  21. Kodi iwe Ramsy apa unena kuti chakwera adadya ndalama iweyo udaliko kapena ndalamazo ndi zomako utakhala kuti wasowa zolemba uzingosiya wamvaaaa.

  24. Apite kutchalitchi adzikalalikira ameneyoyo.Daily kumangolimbana ndi azinzake.Iyeyo chipani chake chumulephela kuchipanga manage nde dziko angakwanitse kuliyendetsa? Amuthawathawa anthu muchipani chakecho because of poor governance and he is still having the guts to dream of governing the country? No way! Good leadership must start right in his own family which in this case is his party.You can not run a church if you are failing to manage your family and you can not run a political party if you failed to manage properly your church and you can not run a government if you are failing to manage your party.Enough of your noise Mr chakwera.You are not better off.Everybody claims to be a better leader during campaign period but once they get there, the do the same things the previous Presidents have been doing.So its enough of your noise.

  46. Mr.Frank Ides plz listen carefully the man is just trying to say things on behalf of many Malawians u know nothing about the problems we are facing and this is nothing to do with anger he is just speaking the truth.If things are good with u just thank God.

  51. Even Malawi24 has been demonised by the likes of the foul-mouthed lady for giving the people what is supposed to be told.We greatly marvel at your pieces of important news ladies and gentlemen at malawi24.You are just doing a commendable job.Keep it up compatriots!!!!

  52. MBC with beston tembo was well organized,,more especially time ya Amayi at least they were trying….sizalero ambwana

    1. Benson Tembo was wim the best ever General Manager having been appointed at MBC in a multiparty democracy.From that angle JBs could be viewed as the best ever democratic adminstration to have reigned.

    4. Jones thuboy mind u’re words when writing,,we are discussing issues not insulting here..if u don’t have manners then don’t reply someone’s comment please

      2019 mpaka kutsogolo, chipani chimene chidzatenge chidzateronso. Pokhapokha MBC Act itasinthidwa ku Parliament.
