Using a skit around a lady named Mwandida who has been suspended from work and arrested for alleged corruption, Bwande points out at how the bureau is leaving everyone it arrests in suspense for a long time.<\/p>\n<p>True to this, Chizuma\u2019s ACB has arrested so many people since February 2021. To everyone\u2019s surprise those arrests have not yielded anything as the suspects have not been taken to court after their successful bail application.<\/p>\n<p>This tendency, Bwande argues, destroys livelihoods as people start suffering socially and economically even when they are innocent until proven guilty.<\/p>\n<p>Most of the people that were arrested lost their jobs or were suspended waiting for the courts to clear them through a judicial process. Bwande\u2019s take has over the past months been shared by other quarters as well.<\/p>\n<p>Others that have spoken on the same include governance experts Humphreys Mvula, Unandi Banda of National Electoral Systems Trust (Nest) and legal experts Kamudoni Nyasulu.<\/p>\n<p>Other reasons attributed to Chizuma\u2019s incompetence are to do with her failure to work in coordination with other state agencies in the fight against corruption.<\/p>\n<p>She is failing to work closely with offices of Attorney General (AG), Director of Public Prosecutions (DPP), Malawi Police, Malawi Revenue Authority (MRA) and Financial Intelligence Authority (FIA). Chizuma is also wanted in court over leaked audio\u2019s defamation lawsuit. She has however remained with 18 months before her contracts expires at ACB.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/malawi\">Malawi<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Malawi.
