The Malawi government through the ministry of education, science and technology has withdrawn a prescribed Malawi School Certificate of Education (MSCE) Chichewa literature book over its content.

This is according to the ministry’s press statement released on Tuesday, December 5 and signed by principal secretary Justin Saidi.

The ministry says the book, ‘Kusintha maganizo ndinkhani zina’ by MAWU contains a story that is bad for the image of Catholic Church.

“The ministry of education science and technology wishes to inform all secondary school teachers and stakeholders that it has withdrawn a prescribed Malawi School Certificate of Education Chichewa literature book titled “Kusintha Maganizo ndi nkhani zina” by MAWU from the prescribed examinable texts.

“The book has been withdrawn because it contains a story titled “Mdalitso Wabodza” which is immoral by nature and portrays a damaging image of the Catholic Church,” reads part of the statement.

According to the ministry, the story is insensitive to the Catholic Church and therefore not appropriate for study purpose at national curriculum level.

The ministry has since advised heads of schools, teachers, principals of colleges and proprietors of education institutions to comply with the instruction.

      1. if you are really a Christian why are you against other peoples faith? have you ever seen a Catholic Christian fighting against other faith? no, so if you didn’t see anything in the Catholic you better shut up your mouth than misleading people, of all the comments your the only person talking nonsense, get a lifetime has gone to argue about faith and worshiping

    2. ???? sinali catholic unaliyo. Ngati catholic ili chipani. Then ansembe and sisters ali muzipani. Unamva akumalizisa kuti zipani zandale? If so ndekuti muchipani cha catholic muli zipani zina. Who runs for president mu chipani cha catholic? Be civilized aise. Even in other countries churches play a role as activist zinthu zikamalakwika. All in all tikudalisikira konko kuchipani unasiya 2015 ko.

    4. That book u guys are talking about was written by a person. Ts shame u left the Catholic Church without knowing the teaching of the church no wonder ukudabwa word yoti chipani. Consult your chichewa teacher akukuphunzise meaning of that word. In english ndi party not political party. If u don’t kno the difference then focus on the denomination u are in rather than fighting against mpingo wapamalo ponse man. Kumwamba mukalowera ntchito zanu not mpingo.

    5. Innocent Dinala whatever you call yourself kumeneko nde kupepelatu???if you saw nothing in Catholic church I’d recommend you keep your mouth shut cause I do not think you have any proof of what you talking about, do you? unless you communicated to God somehow??? and I believe yemwe analemba the secret book whatever is not God, inuyo if you found a better church stick to it and respect other people’s church just like you’d want yours to be respected otherwise you don’t have to judge anything here like you can even pull out any proof

    6. grace salanaye i am not asking u to stop going to that church and sindingakhale chete zinthu zikulakwika pokhapokha yehova atandiuza kuti ndikhale chete.koma osati munthu kundiuza ayi.pali anthu ngati inu ndi ena amene mumaona ngati mukulondola koma muli mbuli pa chinthu chinachake.mukanena kuti book limenelo analemba ndi munthu apo simukulakwitsa chimodzimodzinso inu mabuku ena amane mumawelenga analembedwanso ndi munthu ngankhale baibulo analembanso munthu koma ndi mzelu zochokela kwa yehovayo.a catholic mwakhala mukusocheleda anthu kwambili pa dziko lapansi lino koma sono nthawi yakwana kut muuzidwe chilungamo.1 mumapembeza ma fano,chifukwa chakusaziwa simuziwanso kut kupembeza mafano kapena zosema zimene mumapembezazo zinabwela ndi ndani? ndinu makape. ma proof alipo koma kungot mwina inu ndi ine tatalikilana mwanva mayi.ee osamakhala ogona paziko lapansi lino,ena amati mpingo wapamalo ponse za ziii,kumene kukulowela mkhamu mayi kulibe chipulumutso ine sindili pa mpingo

      1. I think you need to get a life if you are fighting with an empty tin you are also an empty tin, the door is the open man come back to Catholic

    7. The good thing umapemphera wekha. If u were a true catholic sunaziwe bwanji the origin of ur church? ??? this last reply is very funny munthu wamulungu wakwiya. I had to go to ur profile and check. Next time u trana prove understanding the word of God try to edit ur biography on ur facebook profile maybe that can help us pay attention to the nosense you are writing here. Catholic itisocheresabe. Or uinyoze, lucky are u unapita njira yolondolayo. Koma osamapya mtima abusa. ?????

    8. i tend to wonder mipingo ina mumalimbikila kutinena akatolika kut timapembeza mafano mind we dont worship we just venerate( respecting). more to that if u see catholics kneeling infront of the statue of blessed mary, we dont look at the statue just anyhow we loook at it in faith n with faith comes our salvation the same with the crucifix timagwada facing the crucifix n worshiping Jesus christ through our faith n for us to see the crucifix we remember the suffering of our saviour Jesus Christ …..for more mr Dinala contact me on whatsapp 0994752469 ….lastly let me correct u we dont say yehova we say yahweh coz mu bible suzapezamo kut yehovah n that word came into its existance because ayudawo kalero they believed kt dzina la Mulungu siloyenera kutchulidwa directly so thats wen yehova came into its being ndiye kaya undimvera kaya sundimvera catholic is the only church which was began by jJesus christ himself and its where you find the sacrament of the eucharist which was started by Jesus Christ himself and timapembedza Ambuye Yesu okhala mu ukalistiya …..thanx alot ukafuna zambiri halla pa wap

      nkumayikira kumbuyo ma bible oti amene anachita enterplate he now owned by satinism.

      who can give good version of bible
      KJV
      NIV
      Catholic version etc

      which one is good? simply means truthness of the bible was somehow tampered.

      ngakhale zikunyaseni akhristu but you need to watch out. coz the truth dont have versions

    1. Am afraid, bible doesnt condon the acts of catholic church, i was once a catholic but after studying my bible clearly, i realised i was on wrong side. I didnt read any anti-catholic book

    2. Am afraid, bible doesnt condon the acts of catholic church, i was once a catholic but after studying my bible clearly, i realised i was on wrong side. I didnt read any anti-catholic book

    3. I thank Jehovah who made His truth known to everyone through His own ways. The same shall happen to you if you allow His spirit without resistance i hope. Study ur bible with earnest spirit.

    4. ku malawinso zafikapa kulinso choonadi?
      ndibwenzi chitatimasula mu msinga za magetsi.

      zimandidabwitsa anthu mukamapikisana nkhani za ma churches,

      mumathawila kuti munthu awerenge bible, meaning that church matters less but the word of God “bible”

      simply say a person can be going to catholic church komanso akulitsata bible mkumachita mawu.
      winanso can go to SDA koma osalitsata bible kumangotsata zomwe mpingo ukufuna…..

      #musaweruzane poti kuweluza mkwake namalenga.
