Africa-Press – Malawi. <\/strong><\/span>In what seems to be a reaction to political, economic and social rights activist, Ken Msonda\u2019s statement in which he accused people of Asian origin as masquerading as Malawians because they hold dual citizenship, Ministry of National Unity has intervened, saying this tantamount to promotion of hate speech; racially motivated violence and xenophobic statements.<\/p>\n

In a statement Minister Timothy Mtambo said while acknowledging the right to peaceful protest according to Chapter 4, Section 38 of the Constitution of the Republic of Malawi, the Ministry also appeals \u201cto everyone against instigating racially motivated violence and any form of discrimination\u201d.<\/p>\n

\u201cLet us be reminded that Malawi is governed by laws and whatever we are doing should happen within the confines of the law.\u201d<\/p>\n

Msonda circulated a voice note on social media explosively imploring on Malawians to firmly stand up alongside Anti-Corruption Bureau (ACB) Director General, Martha Chizuma, who has been sued by corruption suspect Ashok Kumar Streedharan for alleged defamation.<\/p>\n

Msonda argued that these suspects, who are of Asian origins, should be treated as masquerading as Malawians since they possess dual citizenship yet they claim the United Kingdom as their home with Malawi as just a base to \u201csteal\u201d government money through illegal means. Minister Mtambo takes cognizance that this has led to multiple attacks that are awash in the social media platforms.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe right to freedoms of opinion and expression is sacred to all of us according to Sections 34 and 35 respectively,\u201d Mtambo says. \u201cHowever, we must with great caution concurrently exercise such freedoms without having to infringe on other person\u2019s human rights and freedoms, including right to economic activity in Section 29, and the right to citizenship as stipulated under Section 47 of the Constitution.<\/p>\n

\u201cHaving an issue with one or two members of a grouping should not amount to profiling the entire race of the Malawian-Asian descent. Citizens are encouraged to respect the rule of law and always allow the due process of the law to take its course.<\/p>\n

Mtambo thus appeals to the general public, organizers of demonstrations and all peace-loving Malawians \u201cto desist from using statements that have the potential to instigate racially charged violence against fellow Malawians of Asian descent and the Asian business community\u201d.<\/p>\n

\u201cIn the same vein, Malawians of Asian origin are advised to avoid provocative responses which may lead to further unnecessary tensions \u2014 two wrongs do not make a right.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe Ministry is engaging with all relevant stakeholders and taking all the necessary measures to ensure that any kind of conflicts and misunderstandings are always resolved amicably and in a timely manner.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe Ministry\u2019s mandate is to foster and prioritize peace and dialogue,\u201d says Mtambo while strongly condemning any form of hate speech and discrimination according to section 20 of the Republic of Malawi Constitution.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe appeal to the general public to always desist from hate speech, provocative statements and any conduct that might cause disunity. As peace loving Malawians, we are all obliged to peacefully co-exist as well as expressing our opinions, feelings and beliefs without necessarily infringing on other person\u2019s human rights.<\/p>\n

\u201cAs one people, we all have a right to exist, conduct legally accepted business and live here in Malawi as stipulated in Section 29 of the Constitution of the Republic of Malawi.<\/p>\n

\u201cRacial profiling, xenophobic statements, discrimination and instigating violence are all tantamount to breaking the law. Let us embrace peaceful co-existence and unity as a catalyst for national development and prosperity in line with Malawi Development Vision 2063, since no country can develop without peace and unity.\u201d<\/p>\n

Msonda assured the public that concerned Malawians have mobilized themselves to protect Chizuma and her office and implored on the legal system not to entertain any alleged corrupt individuals to seek court interventions.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, social rights activists Joshua Chisa Mbele and Levi Luwemba have applied to hold legal demonstrations to Ashok\u2019s house on Wednesday, March 12.<\/p>\n

In a letter seeking approval signed by spokesperson of Chisa Mbele\u2019s and Luwemba\u2019s grouping \u2014 trending as Citizens Against Impunity and Corruption \u2014 applies to Lilongwe District Council to march from Simama Hotel to Ashok\u2019s house in Area 9 via Lilongwe Town Hall and Maula.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe have decided to meet this man so that he knows us and we also know him, in person,\u201d said the letter Lilongwe District Commissioner, copied to the officer in charge for Lilongwe Police.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe demonstrations are a direct result of Mr. Ashok Kumar Streedharan, a corruption suspect, to sue the people\u2019s Director General Martha Chizuma in her personal capacity, on matters arising from the very case in which Mr Ashok is being sought to be prosecuted.\u201d<\/p>\n

The statement said Citizens Against Impunity and Corruption is \u201ca congregation of well-meaning and patriotic citizens who have mobilized themselves to stand against impunity and government\u2019s unfathomable tolerance to corruption\u201d.<\/p>\n
