The Magistrates and Judges Association of Malawi (MAJAM) has summoned lawyer Alexious Kamangila for discussions tomorrow, following a series of allegations he has been posting on his Facebook page against Justice Ken Manda. Kamangila has been making these claims since October 2, despite being warned to stop.
Justice Manda, through his lawyer Michael Goba Chipeta, has already issued a letter demanding that Kamangila cease his public accusations and issue a formal apology, along with a compensation of K250 million for defamation. Kamangila has accused Justice Manda of being corrupt and engaging in unethical practices, claiming that there are numerous complaints about Manda’s rulings, which he alleges are being protected by senior judicial officials.
Chipeta’s letter to Kamangila directed him to not only stop posting defamatory statements but also to apologize publicly via the same Facebook platform and pay the K250 million in damages within three days.
However, Kamangila has defied the warning, continuing his accusations both on Facebook and on his WhatsApp platform. This escalation has prompted MAJAM to take action, stating that they are concerned about the situation and feel it necessary to engage with Kamangila in a roundtable discussion to seek a resolution to the matter.
Kamangila has confirmed that he has received the letter summoning him to the discussions. The meeting is set to take place tomorrow, and it is expected to address the allegations raised by Kamangila against Justice Manda.
This case has attracted widespread attention as it touches on important issues related to judicial integrity, legal ethics, and the freedom of speech in the digital age.
