Political activist Bon Kalindo, has advised the newly appointed Inspector General of Police Richard Luhanga to give back to refugees and asylum seekers what the Malawi Congress Party (MCP) led government under President Dr. Lazarus Chakwera stole from them.

Kalindo said the relocation of refugees and asylum seekers back to Dzaleka Camp in Dowa saw police officers accompanied by MCP panga wielding thugs terrorizing innocent Burundian and Rwandan nationals operating their businesses across the country.

He said in the course of relocation, some refugees and asylum seekers were being arrested and thrown into Maula Prison as thieves while others, were being beaten up and surrendering their cash to those who were beating them.

The activist said Burundians and Rwandans shops were vandalized leaving them with nowhere to start and others on cooked up charges were deported back to their countries of origin to be either hanged or killed.

Speaking through an audio clip, Kalindo said MCPs bad omen to lose the 16th September, 2025 elections did not only start with the tragic death of Dr. Saulosi Klaus Chilima and eight others, in the Chikangawa forest on the 10th June, 2024.

Kalindo said Burundian and Rwandan nationals whose shops were looted and vandalized in the course of relocation to Dzaleka Camp, cried to their God for help observing that their cries were heard, MCP was voted out of government and has been buried for life.

He said with the change of the country’s leadership to President Professor Arthur Peter Mutharika, it would be wise and proper to give what belonged to these refugees claiming that at Area 30 national Police Headquarters, there are containers whose owners are still alive.

The activist has appealed to IG Luhanga to set a date inviting owners of the containers to take them back to where they will be plying their businesses as one way of boosting up the country’s dwindling economy which the MCP left it in the hands of dogs.

“Some of the refugees had their property, houses and land confiscated and occupied by MCP individuals, these should go back to the owners,” said Kalindo.

He said by virtue of having a black skin, we are Africans and there is no way Africans can treat one another as dogs and Malawians should be reminded that they will also be refugees and asylum seekers hence to support these foreign nationals.
