Government has defended the number of roadblocks on Malawi roads saying the aim is to ensure security not to intimidate politicians.
Minister of Home Affairs and Internal security Grace Chiumia said this in Parliament on Wednesday after Members of Parliament (MPs) questioned the erection of numerous roadblocks on the country’s roads.
The MPs claimed that the roadblocks on the roads of Malawi are mounted to intimidate politicians.
However, Chiumia said police are not there to obstruct politicians but to protect their lives and property.
“It is the mandate of government to make sure that all Malawians are protected in the country and everyone who enters the country is checked in order to ensure that they have proper documents to enter the country,” she said.
Chiumia further said security is important in any country that is why there are roadblocks on most roads.
“Security is important in every country and members of Parliament must know that police officers are there to ensure security in the country,” said Chiumia.
She added that the police officers who man the roadblocks are competent and will always do their duty by arresting anyone who is on the wrong side of the law.
The minister has since assured Malawians that police officers will continue doing their job as they have always done to ensure that every Malawian is safe.

Kungomva kuti apolice ndi azilonda nde kungowamwaza m’misewu adzitibera? Amvekere: “Ya m’memo bwana..!” aGalu onse.
kkkkk is another way of promotion in police service! they are doing nosense just waiting someone to buy drink for them,chamba chikudutsa pompo evryday kufika pomafunsa munthu kuti shirt wavalayi ma papers ake ali kuti kkkkkkkkk remove those rabish like buwa end mvera they are doing nothing!
The effect of roadblocks is less than 5% because even someone who is not a road traffic officer, the first thing he says is “May I see your driving license, ” then he checks the windscreen for a valid COF and insurance,they have less or nothing to do your cargo. Try it; If you know that your vehicle have got some problems, when he or she ask you for a driving license, put a K1000. Bank note under it and see what happens. Believe me expect one of these two things, 1. This is not enough. 2. You can go but make sure that you have corrected the problem.
You just promote corruption in the police service,fighting to serve in roadblocks,there’s many ways to tight security not roadblocks only.
Mwanza to Blantyre seven roadblocks.and they dont even search sometimes its like they are waiting for acertain man.
Kkkkkkk

Palicholakwika kuika ma roadblock ?
For security reasons then justify to us every 2kms there’s a roadblock, really?
Kupempha apolice too much.

Yess is for security, but its too much.
Lies all you want is to milk us hard.
The policemen on the roadblock are just another version of street begging.Some reach at the extent of saying”njala bwana tithandizeniko yammemo!”
