Social commentator Isaiah Emmanuel Sunganimoyo is under fire following his audio clip released on 2nd August, 2024 in which he spoke highly of the divisions and confusions rocking the Chewa tribe that they cannot reach to one body for all the Chewas in Malawi.

Sunganimoyo known for not closing his mouth, he speaks of his mind in issues of politics, culture and religion and the audio released on 2nd August, 2024 did not please some Chewa chiefs one being Group village Head Sosola of Salima.

GvH Sosola whose real name is Raphael Nowa after listening to the clip, failed to hold his mouth but started insulting Sunganimoyo left and right in obscene languages that many are shacking their heads in disbelief of how come a chief like Sosola insulting Sunganimoyo using obscene language.

In a recorded audio CLIP circulating in various social media platforms, GvH Sosola described Sunganimoyo as a man who is not of Chewa blood and should stop talking of issues affecting the Chewa divisions and confusions claiming that Kalonga Dr. Gawa Undi of Zambia is his relative.

“If there are confusions, is this going to your family or your tribe, you must be stupid yourself and don’t speak anything of President Dr. Lazarus Chakwera, you cannot defeat me,” said GvH Sosola.

Isaiah Emmanuel Sunganimoyo when contacted said he has no words to say claiming that he has sent the clip of insulting him using obscene language to President Chakwera speaking for itself that he is being taken as an outcast not a Chewa.

Sunganimoyo has been digging the Chewa history to find out the reasons that have made the Chewas to be divided into two tribal groupings; Chewa Heritage Foundation (CHEFO) and Bwalo la Chewa Foundation (BOLA-CEFO).

He has for long been lamenting that CHEFO goes to Eastern Province of Chipata in Zambia for the annual Chewa Kulamba ceremony at Mkaika headquarters of Paramount Chief Kalonga Dr. Gawa Undi of Zambia, While Bwalo la Chewa holds “ Chizangala cha a Chewa in Malawi.

Bwalo la Chewa Foundation has been arguing holding of Kulamba ceremonies in Zambia on the claims that Lundu and Undi were from one mother-Nyangu at Mankhamba headquarters, Undi settled in Zambia while Lundu settled in Malawi and there’s no way Gawa Undi be recognized as the Paramount Chief of all the Chews in Malawi.

As the two Chewa tribal groupings are not enough, Paramount Chief Lundu break-away from Bwalo la Chewa for a new tribal grouping “Malawi Chewa Heritage -Chifukwato cha a Chewa” meaning that the Chewas beside of having a population of 15 million people in Malawi have three tribal groupings representing the Chewa people.

Political activist Bon Kalindo has advised various groups, religious leaders and chiefs going to State House to comfort President Dr. Lazarus Chakwera not to forget the bereaved families whose loved ones perished in the plane crash in the Chikangawa forest in Mzimba district on Monday, 10th June, 2024.

Kalindo said he finds it strange that instead of people going to the families of the deceased including Dr. Saulosi Chilima, people are going to State House a development not only worrisome but suspicious that the mourners are paying khaki envelops to those coming to comfort them.

He said during the meeting with chiefs of the northern region, President Chakwera admitted that he is receiving insults and castigations over the death of Dr. Chilima and 9 others making him to speak for the things  he does not want to speak.

Kalindo has concurred with President Chakwera that people have even composed songs of Chikangawa forest against him advising him to do the needful, release the report findings on the death of Dr. Chilima and nine others for the people to stop speaking against him.

He said in Iran, it took only a week to establish the reasons that made the helicopter which carried the country’s President to come out wondering why the report is taking so long in Malawi after the incident on 10th June, 2024.

The activist said Malawians are still mourning over the death of Dr. Chilima and nine others, they will stop mourning after the report has been released and made available to the general public but without the report, the mourning period still continues.

“From 10th June, 2024 till this day, there’s no report and even the MDF report is not available to the public only the autopsy reports from the hospitals, there’s growing pain in the eyes of Malawians,” said Kalindo.

He has also informed President Chakwera that a 70-year-old man Dytone Mhone who was arrested in Mzimba for sharing video clips of Chikangawa scenes is still languishing at Maula Prison in Lilongwe, he is poor and cannot afford to seek for legal representation for court bail.

The activist has finally invited all pensioners, THEBA People and Malawians of patriotic hearts for their country to join in solidarity protests in Blantyre and Lilongwe on 8th August, 2024 and on 15th August, 2024 Mzuzu, Mangochi and Zomba.

He has appealed to pensioners and THEBA People to form a network so that together with Malawians they can go to Parliament to stop parliamentary deliberations until government pays them their monies expressing his heartfelt sympathy for these two groups that many have died while waiting to access their monies.
