Itaye removed at Macra, swaps with Shamu at Malawi Posts Corp

Government has fired controversial Malawi Communications Rugulatory Authority (Macra) director general Godfrey Itaye and replaced him with Malawi Posts Corporation postmaster general Henry Shamu.

Itaye: No more impunity , fired at Macra

Last week, Itaye drew public wrath after he warned public broadcasters over their live broadcasts of opposition rallies.

Itaye has long been accused of being a government pony after several missteps and behaved larger-than-life.

Last month, he failed to reign in on stated owned ย MBC TV after they flighted a Facebook post that insulted UTM leader and the countryโ€™s estranged ย vice president Saulos Chilima.

Nyasa Times’ efforts to talk to both Itaye and Macra Spokesperson proved futile as both their phones went unanswered.

Itaye was a total clown. The boss is just another circus member even.

Our national anthem doesn’t lie, Njala, nthend, Nsanje. A lot of comments happy that someone has been fired. A lot of people here with miserably stinky hearts. Why always celebrating and wishing someones downfall? This is why Your lives don’t change. However Itaye goes home with a hefty package and will be considered for another gargantuan position in the public sector. nsambi

Enter Seventh Day, Exist Seventh Day. MACRA is a Seventh Day institution, not a Government entity. It must be investigated. Something is fishy in this organisation.
