The action to impound a minibus in Mzuzu city for exceeding passenger limit has pleased Malawians who have applauded Minister of Home Affairs and Internal Security Grace Chiumia.
Chiumia who also calls herself Obama impounded a minibus in Mzuzu for having four passengers per seat instead of recommended three on each seat.
The action is noted to have made Malawians happy as they have faulted minibus drivers for contravening road traffic laws.
Commenting on a story carried by Malawi24 on Saturday, Malawians applauded Chiumia for impounding the minibus.
“That’s good madam minister we are happy for you,” wrote Maureen Christabel Mackene.
While Patrick Nkhoma wrote: “Obama did well, minibuses are supposed to carry three passengers per seat well done madam.”
Another commenter Gift Mzava faulted the drivers for contravening the law despite hiking minibus charges.
Malawi government took seriously the law of having passengers not exceeding the recommended capacity of minibuses.
This followed an increase of road accidents in the country with dozens of lives being lost.
The introduction of the stiff measures witnessed minibus drivers and conductors rioting but police insisted that they will continue to implement the rules.
Everyone is responsible malawians!!

200 mapassport unapangila managerial aja ndalama zatha ukulimbana ndima minbus
What does a blood minister of home affairs has to do with the minibus? I thought the ministry of transportation is responsible for this? Made in Mzuzu
It’s wek-up call transport minister is sleeping
Kkkkkkkk yaa I can see because that’s unusual right
Mubwerenso kuno madam
Busy with minibuses yet the big buses still move at night ylo overloaded
A thump down wasowa chochita mpaka kusanduka wa traffic pa nseu, ndiye anamulembela mlandu wanji?

Publicity stunt iyi: How many times will she be doing this? How did 200 passports disappeared under her watch? i hope one day she will catch a thief in the street. I would have praised her if she had apprehended Chaponda and handed him to the police
Grace ku lilongwe kunonso zikuchitika bwerani kuno mudzagwire awa ndinthu thumb up
Instead of constructing good roads u r buys fighting for exceeding which contributes very little to the accidents happening in Malawi.
Develop a good road network and protect Malawians.
Achitabwino anthu amaminibus amaonjeza kumangopakila anthu ngati atenga matumba akachewele aziwalanga choncho ndye muona china chopanda umunthu ndi nzeru chizizuzula kuti minister analakwitsa go a head mama
I STOP UN SAFE WORK, safety is in your hands. It begins with you. Congratulations honorable. You have shown your commitment for safety in our roads.
INDE ANAPANGA CHINTHU CHABWINO KOMA ANTHU AMADANA NDICHABWINO. SHE HAS TO BE CAREFUL, IF SOMEONE FEELS PAIN WHEN HE/SHE RESPONDS. IT WAS NOT HEALTH FOR THE HONOURABLE TO DO WHAT SHE DID. SHE COULD HAVE USED DUNDUZU ROADBLOCK OR LUWINGA POLICE UNIT.
get buk we ar cita
get buk we ar cita
It is the Ministry of Home Affairs that enforces motor vehicle discipline on our roads not transport.
Speed trap camera???
But who is minister of transport?
Tikufuna nyanja osati za mkutu zo. A traffic ndiye kuti alephela mpaka anduna zamkutu.
abuse of power…. she should no better
THE CONDUCT ITSELF IS GOOD BUT BASED ON THE LAWS OF MALAWI,SHE HAS NO POWER TO DIRECTLY PERFORM THAT WORK.
Good example to emmulate hope minister of transport will do more
That’s good our Police is full of bribes.
Surely this must be done by all those people in authority. This is for purpose of safety. Safety and health for all citizens is one of priorities to nation building. Law and orderly conduct of citizens is important in any nation as first step to peace and calm.
She has gone overboard
Is Grace chiumia the minister of transport or home affairs?
Home affairs
she is the one of law inforcers , including she is a citizen of malawi ,here in SA we saw minister of agriculture helping police to catch the thugs, so many people ask him why is doing that .He said I’m a citizen of South Africa and I have a right to protect anyone.
what is wrong with that ? amalawi kuyamikira chinthu chabwino kumativuta. mtima wa chidani umatibwezeretsa mmbuyo. ngati apolisi akulephera chifukwa cha corruption, pakufunika ena achitepo kanthu. thats patriotism. kumakonda dziko lako munthu ndi kukhala ndi udindo. nchifukwa chake maiko anzathu amatukuka. mitima imeneyo mpovuta kukhala patriotic.
INETU NDAKONDWA NAYE
she was supposed to punish the mini bus driver, not the owner of the mini bus… that action will cost government money if it continues… minibus drivers get driving licences from Road Traffic, not from bus owners…. kuwa shosha ma lawsuits kumeneko…
mini bus yi anthu adakafa mudakanyoza boma, wat are ur duties passengers
ma passenger titamatero sangamationelerw
Iyi ndiye nduna yachitsazo asangoti ndi nduna koma dziko zee. Mawa anduna mukaime pa pengapenga market ntcheu muwagwila pamenepo.

Nothing wrong honourable minister. Anthu amenewa samamva
For sure, ifeso a Malawi timaonjeza akutiuza kondakitala kuti tikhale 4 4 kumagovomera basi ngati ndife zitsilu. Tiyeni tithandizane tonse kumakhala 3 3 basi akati 4 4 tonse kuyakhula ndi one voice.

Kungoti Ayi 3 3
Eeetu vuto amalawife tilibe ufulu oyakhula ndikuchita. Tchito kuderera ndi kunyozesa zomwe ena akuchita.
What are the duties of a cabinet minister? This is not one of those. What if she could be roughed up, any recourse?
Kumayamika znaz
Can you rough up a minister?
Me not. But thats possible. They are just humans.
A cabinet minister has seen and unseen bodyguards. She can hardly be roughed up.
Is it? I have worked there before, in those roles. There is only one bodyguard. I know the vulnerabilities.
Zikutiwawa kukwera minbus ya 49ndi k500 koma kumatenganso 4:4 zoona? Anachita bwino aminister wo
She is leading by example. Ministers, just like all other politicians, are supposed to be servants, not bosses who give orders without monitoring whether the orders are being followed or not. Sitikufuna ma minister omangokhala phwii mu ofesi thinking kt everything is alright…
azikozekera kuluza 2019 iyeyu,,watizuza mokwana

Passangers must realise there rights and enforce the rule of sitting in one voice,then these pple will not take advantage,
