The Malawi Police Service (MPS) has redeployed Nkhotakota police
Public Rlations Officer (PRO) Sub Inspector Williams Kajoloweka
Kaponda to Ndonda police unit in Kasungu over a Facebook post.
Kaponda allegedly wrote “Dear God, akumbutseni anatiuza tizasiya
kuyalana m’misewu akamadutsa” apparently referring to President
Chakwera who is on record saying he was against the deployment of
police officers on the roads to provide security to him.
National Police Spokesperson James Kadadzera has confirmed the
redeployment of the officer in question over what he calls
indiscipline.
He also confirmed that the police officer has reverted to general
duties.
Kadadzera said the police have a duty to protect the President at all
cost.
This development saves as a warning to most civil servants working under Home affairs to resist from diluting their mind on Social media like Facebook or what’s app
