In what seemed to be a waterless write up on July 26, 2023, the President and Commander in Chief of the Citizens For Transformation (CFT) People Power Movement has proved to be a great soothsayer following the immediate expulsion of four soldiers manning a check-point near Chirumba Barracks in Karonga for taking bribes from a truck driver.
Mtambo, in his letter addressed to the Malawi Defense Forces condemned the barbaric acts of bribery of some unpatriotic soldiers at the point.
According to confirmed reports the leadership of the Malawi Defense Forces has acted accordingly with swift. A rumour is peddling that the MDF has even transferred the Barracks head.
Four Malawi Defense Force (MDF) soldiers have on Tuesday been dismissed after a court marshal found them guilty of taking bribes at a security check-point near Chirumba Barracks in Karonga.
The four were accused of receiving the bribes from a truck driver driving from Mzuzu towards Karonga in the early morning of Monday.
MDF spokesperson, Major Calvin Mlelemba, said details of what has transpired will be made public soon through a press statement.
He said two of the four soldiers will do time in a military prison; one for 10 days and the other 14 days before going back home.
Road users have been complaining for months that soldiers at the checkpoint demand bribes from road users, particularly traders a situation that triggered Mtambo to write the Commander of Defence force
Mtambo is proof that serious activism is not about torching down the president in any rude manner. Mtambo proves to be a mastermind of powerful and purposeful activism in Malawi.
