In a heartfelt message shared on his social media page, Gamphani described his time at the club as a journey filled with mixed emotions, balancing moments of growth with periods of difficulty.

Gamphani emphasized that he leaves the club with valuable lessons, which he believes will guide him in the next phase of his football career.

Despite the ups and downs, the midfielder expressed gratitude for the opportunity to wear the Bullets jersey, acknowledging the significance of representing such a historic team.

He also extended appreciation to the club’s supporters, whose unwavering backing, he said, remained a source of motivation throughout his stay.

In addition, Gamphani thanked his teammates, technical staff, and everyone connected to the club for being part of his journey over the past two years.

While confirming his departure, the player remained tight-lipped about his next destination, leaving fans speculating about his future.

However, sources suggest that several teams have already shown interest in securing his signature ahead of the upcoming season.

Among the clubs reportedly monitoring his situation are Civil Service United, Creck Sporting Club, and a possible return to his former side, Goshen City Dedza Dynamos.
As Gamphani turns a new page, his departure highlights the ever changing nature of football careers, where every ending opens the door to a fresh opportunity.

Social commentator Stanley Onjezani Kenani, has thanked Malawians for coming out speaking on Amaryllis Hotel sale saying their fight was not in vain, there is hope.

Writing on his face book page, Kenani said he is  very happy to hearing what the Reserve Bank of Malawi (RBM) has done that it has given the Public Service Pension Trust Fund (PSPTF) to rescind its decision reached to buy Amaryllis Hotel in Blantyre.

He said the Reserve Bank of Malawi has instructed the Financial Intelligence Authority ( FIA) to follow up the money saying so far, K76 billion has been frozen or preserved.

The commentator said each Pension Trust Fund trustee has been slapped with a K40 million penalty for which they are personally liable and must pay within seven days.

” The Reserve Bank of Malawi has referred the matter to various prosecutorial authorities to take action,” reads Kenani’s writings on the wall.

Counsel Bob Chimkango writing on his face book has written a food for thought that in their wisdom today, the Reserve Bank of Malawi has frozen the Amaryllis Hotel operating accounts, saying they should not cry tomorrow if the Malawi Supreme Court of Appeal orders compensation to the owner of Amaryllis Hotel.

Morocco and PSG defender Achraf Hakimi has reportedly turned down the Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) title awarded to Morocco by the Confederation of African Football (CAF), saying the decision does not reflect what happened on the pitch.

In a statement seen circulating on social media, Hakimi revealed that his mother advised him not to accept the trophy, stressing the importance of honesty and fairness in football.

Hakimi stated that Morocco had the opportunity to win the AFCON title on the field of play but failed to do so, with Senegal emerging as the rightful winners of the tournament.

He emphasized that football is about either winning or losing, and taking credit for another team’s achievement would be unjust and against the spirit of the game.

According to Hakimi, Morocco worked hard throughout the competition with hopes of lifting the trophy, but ultimately fell short, and that result must be respected.

The PSG star added that accepting a title under such circumstances would undermine the efforts of teams that genuinely earned their victories through performance.

Hakimi openly accepted Morocco’s defeat and urged fellow players and supporters to do the same, calling for integrity and sportsmanship in handling the situation.

He further extended his congratulations to Senegal, recognizing them as the legitimate AFCON 2025 champions following their triumph in the tournament.

Hakimi also wished Senegal continued success, acknowledging their determination and performance throughout the competition.

Meanwhile, reactions from former players and football fans have been mixed, with many expressing dissatisfaction over CAF’s controversial decision to award Morocco the title.

Critics argue that such decisions risk damaging the credibility of African football and could set a worrying precedent for future competitions.

Head coach of Goshen City Dedza Dynamos FC, Alex Ngwira, has clarified that the club’s recent decision to release several players was made in agreement with his technical panel as part of a broader strategy to strengthen the squad.

Ngwira disclosed that he communicated his recommendations to the club’s executive immediately after the Castel Challenge Cup final against FCB Nyasa Big Bullets at Bingu National Stadium. The decisions, he said, were informed by a thorough assessment of players’ performance levels and conduct during the previous season.

“We made these decisions to create room for new additions who can improve the overall quality of the squad, especially considering our performance in both league and cup competitions last season,” Ngwira explained.

The coach emphasized that attention has now shifted to recruitment, expressing confidence that the executive will act swiftly to secure the targeted players ahead of the new campaign.

“With the new season set to kick off on April 18, 2026, through the Charity Shield, it is crucial that we bring in the players we have identified as soon as possible,” he said.

Ngwira further stressed the importance of early preparations, noting that integrating new signings into the team setup will be key to achieving better results in the upcoming season.

“We need to regroup with the new players and build cohesion. I trust that the executive is taking the necessary steps to support the technical team,” he added.

Meanwhile, the team is scheduled to regroup on Monday, March 23, 2026, marking the beginning of preparations for the new season.

The coach revealed that the break was intentional, allowing players adequate time to recover after a demanding campaign that extended into February.

“We had a long and competitive season, so it was important to give the players time to rest before returning to training,” Ngwira said.

As the squad reconvenes, the club is also expected to unveil new signings, signaling the start of a new chapter as Dedza Dynamos aim to improve their performance.

A Bumpy Ride Ahead: DPP gives Road Traffic Police a K25 Billion Revenue Target

By Joe Cholinga

Turbulent period awaits motorists in the country as the ruling Democratic Progressive Party (DPP) has set a staggering K25 billion revenue target for the Malawi Police Service Road Traffic Department – an outrageous increase from the previous year’s K8 billion.

Minister of Finance Joseph Mwanamveka has described the increase as a necessary response to rampant traffic violations.

Justifying the increase, Mwanamveka says the target is necessary because there are a lot of traffic violations on the roads.

“There are many vehicles breaking traffic rules, unroadworthy cars on the roads, and drivers without licences. These must be penalized. In fact, K25 billion is a modest target,” he said.

However,  the directive has unleashed a torrent of concerns. Motorists anticipate more frequent roadblocks, increased scrutiny on driving licenses, and rigorous checks on vehicle fitness and insurance documentation.

“How are they expecting to collect that much?” wondered Thomas Kalibwino, a local taxi driver. “It sounds more like a cash grab than an effort to improve road safety. More roadblocks, more inspections, it’s not going to be good for us.”

Meanwhile, Miriam Banda, a student who commutes daily to school, was anxious about the impending chaos.

“I don’t mind traffic rules, but it feels like it’s all about the money now,” she lamented. “I have seen how desperate some officers become during inspections.”
