Lumbadzi Police Station Officer In-charge Senior Assistant Commissioner of Police (SACP) Micklina Medi, says bank-nkhonde shares and loans are some of the factors that are fueling suicide cases among married men.
Medi was speaking Saturday at Chinkhuti CCAP under Nkhoma Synod in Dowa during the zonal Women’s World Day of prayers.
She said in most cases women do not tell their husbands about their shares and loans that they get from Bank-nkhonde, which later becomes a burden to their husbands.
“Let me advise you to always engage your husbands when joining and obtaining loans from Bank-nkhonde,” she said.
Medi further said it is worrisome that some women are involved in mob justice and gender based violence saying the behavior is counterproductive.
“Other evils which are very common among women these days are extra marital affairs, jealousy and gossiping which should not be condoned in our families,” she said.
Deputy Minister of Health Halima Daud who was the guest of hour during the event read the book of Ephesians 4:1-7.
