Dr. Michael Usi, a prominent figure in Malawi’s political landscape and a senior member of the United Transformation Movement (UTM), has expressed surprise over the party’s approach to handling internal issues. According to Usi, UTM seems to prefer publishing sensitive documents on Facebook rather than addressing them directly with the concerned individuals.
“I am surprised that the UTM leadership finds it more convenient to rush to social media with documents instead of sending them to the appropriate people,” said Usi, clearly perplexed by the situation.
While he acknowledged receiving the party’s summons regarding multiple charges, Usi did not categorically state whether he would appear before the party’s disciplinary committee. This has left political observers speculating about his next move and the potential implications for UTM’s internal unity.

The summons come amidst growing tensions within UTM as the party prepares for its forthcoming convention. Some insiders believe these issues reflect deeper divisions and a lack of clear communication within the party’s leadership structures.
Political analysts have pointed out that the use of social media to handle internal matters might not only tarnish the party’s image but also discourage unity among members. “UTM needs to resolve its issues professionally if it hopes to remain a serious contender in the 2025 elections,” one analyst remarked.
As the situation unfolds, all eyes will be on Dr. Usi to see how he navigates this political storm. His decision on whether to respond to the summons and attend the disciplinary hearing could shape his future within the party and influence the broader political dynamics ahead of the elections.
Outspoken activist Bon Kalindo has once again captured national attention with a fiery new audio clip in which he lambasts telecommunications giants Airtel and TNM for their poor services and high costs. He argues that these companies are exploiting Malawians with expensive bundles that expire too quickly and operate on unreliable networks. Kalindo went further, stating, “If Airtel and TNM are tired of serving Malawians, they should pack up and go. We need new companies that can offer better services.”
Kalindo did not spare the Malawi Communications Regulatory Authority (MACRA) either, accusing the agency of prioritizing politics over its regulatory duties. He criticized MACRA for failing to hold Airtel and TNM accountable for their substandard services, saying, “It seems MACRA is more interested in politics than ensuring Malawians get value for their money.”
Message to President Chakwera: Chikangawa Plane Crash and Lake Malawi Issues
In the same audio clip, Kalindo directed sharp criticism at President Lazarus Chakwera, particularly regarding the handling of the Chikangawa plane crash. He questioned the credibility of the commission of inquiry, stating, “A commission of inquiry without a black box is pointless. This report is full of shortcomings and leaves many questions unanswered.”

Kalindo also accused Chakwera of surrounding himself with “useless advisors” who prefer feeding him lies rather than addressing pressing national issues. He raised concerns over rumors that critics of the government are being targeted, alleging that Rwandans illegally residing in Malawi may be used to silence dissenters.
On the Chikangawa plane crash, Kalindo highlighted inconsistencies in the government’s narrative, pointing out that the Minister of Information initially claimed the black box and transponder had been recovered, only to later retract the statement. “This mishandling is an insult to millions of Malawians who are outraged by this nonsense,” Kalindo said. He stressed that the incident must be handled with utmost care and transparency.
Regarding Lake Malawi, Kalindo dismissed the need for discussions on international boundaries, asserting that historical records clearly establish Malawi’s sovereignty over the lake. “This is not a matter for Assemblies of God or any church group; it’s a national issue,” he remarked.
Kalindo expressed his frustration with the government’s lack of urgency in addressing critical issues. “Malawians are tired of lies and half-truths. The leadership must rise to the occasion or face the wrath of a disappointed and angry nation,” he warned.
Final Thoughts
Kalindo’s remarks reflect the growing dissatisfaction among Malawians with the state of governance and service delivery. His call for accountability resonates with millions who are grappling with poor services, rising costs, and a perceived lack of transparency from those in power. Whether the government and corporations like Airtel and TNM will take heed remains to be seen.
Allegations of financial impropriety have rocked the United Transformation Movement (UTM), as its former secretary-general and current Minister of Tourism, Dr. Michael Usi, claims that some senior party members have embezzled funds left by the late Dr. Saulos Klaus Chilima. Speaking at a private gathering, Usi raised concerns over the mismanagement of resources that Chilima, the UTM’s founder and former Vice President of Malawi, entrusted to the party before his untimely demise.
“These funds were meant to sustain and grow the UTM, but it’s clear some individuals have prioritized personal gain over the party’s future,” Usi allegedly stated.
In response, UTM Publicity Secretary Felix Njawala has dismissed the allegations as baseless and politically motivated. “The party remains transparent in all its dealings. These claims are unfounded and only serve to tarnish the reputation of our leadership,” Njawala said during a press briefing.

The financial controversy adds to the storm brewing within the UTM, as the party faces yet another scandal involving the alleged misuse of K61 million allocated by the government during Dr. Chilima’s funeral. Reports suggest that while the funds were intended to facilitate a dignified farewell for Chilima, several party members claim they have no knowledge of how the money was spent.
“This issue must be addressed,” said one anonymous party member. “If the funds were meant for the party or the funeral, there must be accountability. Right now, it’s all speculation.”
Critics argue that these allegations could damage UTM’s credibility ahead of next year’s elections, especially as the party seeks to redefine its identity following Chilima’s passing. Transparency advocates have called for an independent audit of the party’s finances to clear the air.
Meanwhile, political analysts believe the internal strife could weaken the party’s unity and derail its prospects in the upcoming polls. “The UTM must handle this matter swiftly and decisively to prevent further fallout,” said one analyst.
As the allegations unfold, it remains to be seen whether the UTM leadership will take steps to restore trust within the party and among its supporters. For now, the shadow of financial mismanagement looms large over one of Malawi’s key political movements.
The High Court sitting in Lilongwe on Friday acquitted 10 police officers and convicted 11 police officers over the death of Buleya Lule who died while in the hands of police officers at Area 3 police station’s cells in Lilongwe.
The conviction of 11 police officers who on 8th January, 2025 will be sentenced to serve prison sentences, has attracted comments from many Malawians that some of the police officers who are aiding panga wielding thugs harassing innocent citizens holding peaceful demonstrations, will one day appear in court to answer their charges

Political activist Bon Kalindo said the Malawi laws are in the hands of individuals who are loyalists to the MCP saying these people are untouchables before the law and can do whatever they can even killing their opponents at will.
Kalindo said the Malawi Parliament is the most respected institution saying it is very strange that MCP youth armed with pangas sneaked into Parliament to threaten MPs and shouting on top of their voices disrupting parliamentary deliberations in “This is the government going nowhere “Boma ndilomweli silikuchoka”.
He has advised MCP panga wielding thugs that no one has long life, no one is above the law, disrupting parliamentary deliberations does not mean that they are next to God leading to some of the notable MPs one being Sameer Suleman running away from Parliament.
The activist has questioned Malawians to open their eyes that if well educated people are inviting thugs to Parliament and what about if President Dr. Lazarus Chakwera is given the second mandate to run the country from 2025 to 2030?
He said it is up to Malawians themselves to decide whether to continue being ruled by pangas of the MCP or their vote to remove President Chakwera out of power in 2025 saying Chakwera’s leadership did not come to rule but to terrorize and threatening people to be silent.
Kalindo has reminded Malawians that the late Kamuzu Banda was the most feared man but death escorted him to the grave observing that these thugs are demonstrating their thuggeries in full view of police officers.
“Police officers working with politicians take care, the world will turn against you tomorrow, you cannot always be harassing and threatening people with pangas, one day you will pay for your pangas,” he said.
Kalindo has finally advised MCP panga wielding thugs that instead of terrorizing, harassing and threatening fellow Malawians, they need to go to Lake Malawi to reclaim the land taken by Tanzanian soldiers.
