“Through our investigations, we traced him and we have evidence that he is among three individuals who are behind the so called Bakili Muluzi TV on social media.”

However, there is a screenshot making rounds on social media, purportedly of the said fake TV, in which somebody claims to be the true operative of ‘Bakili Muluzi TV’ and that he is based in South Africa.

Makopa hails from Mitowa village, Traditional Authority (T/A) Mpama in Chiradzulu District.
