ACB officials live in fear over Mchacha corruption investigations

Graft busting body, the Anti-corruption Bureau (ACB) director general Reyneck Matemba has expressed fear that some of the officers at the bureau might be pursued for vengeance by some people.

ACB czar Reyneck Matemba: The law will come after them

Matemba said this during a news conference on Thursday in Lilongwe.

He said the ACB has since reported to police an incident in which a National Statistics Office driver was pursued from Ntcheu by strange people who, he later established, mistook him for an employee of the ACB.

The ACB Czar said driver told the bureau that the strangers specifically wanted to know where Democratic Progressive Party (DPP) regional governor (South) Charles Mchacha, was being kept after his arrest.

Matemba, who said he did not want to link Mchacha to the incident, warned whoever could be planning anything against ACB officers that the law would  come after them ‘personally and not those sending them’.

ACB arrested Mchacha after reports that he dubiously acquired government land in Blantyre.

The former minister of Irrigation and Water Development is answering three counts of influencing public officers to make processes necessitating the acquisition of the said land.

A former ACB top official, Issa Njauju, was brutally murdered years ago in a matter now yet to be tried in the courts soon.

Bwana Chakwera never renew this dude contract. He is doing cosmetic things to impress that he is doing something. He know that you will be happy if he penelises DPP officials. Matemba is a useless political stoogie

That is the problem of treating every crime involving money as corruption.

What happened to the good old fashioned theft by servant, misappropriation of funds,simple theft,stealing etc.

This is why the police are becoming the thieves,they have no thieves to catch,and they can’t catch each other so they carry on stealing.

By the way how many people in Malawi know the definition of corruption?

What Matemba said about Mchacas thugs is irresponsible, Mukanyengelana akazi mwaphana you will say amupha ndi anthu a Mchaca, thereby impeding justice.

We are talking about ACB,how is Muthalika coming in?

I despair for this country.Theakority of people that commemt here are nitwits and dimwits and thick as two short planks.

Some believe it or not are MPs and aspiring politicians.

Poor Malawi

This Matemba guy is very childish. Always quick to go public before getting to the bottom of issues. And he desperately seeks vindication but nay often his childishness protrudes confusing all of us. These positions zimafunika a chakulungwa okhwima nzeru osati every Jim and Jack because they are talkative or kujijirika.

Do you really know what is going on? Matemba acted on information from whistle blowers. If you have information that you want the ACB to act on then all you have to do is give it to them. They are currently doing a good job.
