Political activist Bon Kalindo says two Memorial Services to honor and remember the departed souls of the 10th June, 2024 tragic plane crash in the Chukangawa forest has proved itself that there is no unity in Malawi under President Dr. Lazarus Chakwera and the MCP government.

Kalindo has described as shame for the whole President Chakwera and his MCP entourages travelling to the Chikangawa forest for a Memorial Service without going to Nsipe in Ntcheu district where Dr. Saulosi Chilima was buried.

He thanked opposition parties for gracing SKC Memorial service at Nsipe in Ntcheu that they did a commendable job other than following a useless SKC Memorial Service in the Chikangawa forest where President Chakwera and the MCP were mourning a military aircraft not the departed souls.

Speaking through an audio clip, Kalindo said it was heartbreaking to see Ngwenyama Inkosi ya Makosi Gomani V joining President Chakwera at the Chikangawa forest leaving his people in Ntcheu mourning for the departed souls alone.

Kalindo said God has proved to the Chikangawa forest SKC Memorial Service that he was not happy with the function claiming that there were many vehicles parking than the people attending the function describing this as a shame to President Chakwera and his MCP.

He said billions of Kwachas lost for holding a useless SKC Memorial service in the Chikangawa forest would have assisted Senior Chief Chikumbu of Mulanje who is lacking K5 million to travel outside the country for treatment after getting a fracture on her leg.

The activist said Chief Chikumbu is a staunch supporter of Boma ndi lomweli but the government is doing nothing to look after her welfare so that she can continue singing praising songs for Chikangawa party.

He said Malawians are still demanding answers from the Chikangawa party on the tragic death of Dr. Saulosi Chilima and eight others, saying this was observed with the eulogies which were made at Nsipe by political party leaders.

The activist said there have been three commission of inquiries to establish the truth on the death of the departed souls but there was no an independent commission of inquiry saying without an independent inquiry, all the investigations set by government will be proved to be of no impact.

“Thank you all opposition parties for holding a very colorful SKC Memorial Service at Nsipe, this is the way to go, let’s be together in times of sorrow and happiness,” said Kalindo.

He has appealed to the youth in the country that they have seen for themselves the situation their country is going, urging them to wake-up and speak with one voice that enough is enough with President Chakwera and his MCP.
