Major Aidini’s widow appearing before the inquiry committee said she was given an Airtel phone number 09 which was heavily smashed and can no no longerfunction and she was not given a TNM phone of 08.
TNM’s Chief Engineer Lloyd Gowera said last contact for Major Aidini’s TNM number was 11:11 a.m at Mzimba turn off on Monday, 10th June, 2024 speaking for itself that the 08 number was in the hands of someone.
Gowera said one of the phones for the deceased persons in the plane crash took TNM Pasavute loan on 21st June, 2024 but this time, it was not handed back to the family but when they handed it back to the family, it was completely smashed.
From the two accounts by TNM, a conclusion can be drawn that MCP allegedly murdered Dr. Saulosi Chilima and eight others, and not a plane crash as the inquiry instituted by President Dr. Lazarus Chakwera put it on paper.
If the last contact of Major Aidini’s TNM number was made at 11:11 a.m of Monday, 10th June, 2024 this then means that President Dr. Lazarus Chakwera deceived Malawians in his national address that the wreckage of the plane was found on Tuesday 11th June, 2024.
Appearing before the inquiry committee, one of Dr. Saulosi Chilima’s best friend Mthakomwa said the wreckage of the crashed plane was discovered the very same day Monday, 10th June, and not 11th June, 2024.
After Mthakomwa’s appearance to the committee, a lot of words were said about him claiming that he deserve to be arrested for presenting lies under Oath and TNM Engineer Lloyd Gowera has cleared Mthakomwa of telling the committee nothing but the truth.
Lies and contradictions are continuing to be heard at the inquiry committee, Ms. Flora Mkandawire’s accounts were dismissed by the MCP media with others calling for psychiatric Doctors to examine her but today, former Head teacher of Nthungwa Primary School Atusaye Mwalwanda has told the committee that Flora Mkandawire was not a mad person as many of the MCP family thought of her.
Mwalwanda has confirmed that a police land cruiser came to pick up Mkandawire’s two children saying they came to him to direct them to the house of Flora Mkandawire.
In his account, Mwalwanda confirmed having not mentioned the name of Flora Mkandawire to the police officers but they came with her name raising a question that how did the officers know and be looking for Flora Mkandawire?
One social media contributor, has advised the inquiry committee to recall the Head teacher for giving contradictory accounts to the committee that after being told by Flora Mkandawire that the plane has crashed to call the police, he called the police at 7;00 p.m on Monday 10th June, 2024 meaning that the call was made in the absence of Flora Mkandawire.
A Malawi Congress Party (MCP) diehard of Mvera in Dowa district Mr. Rodgers Kamphangala, has advised MCP media team not to mislead the people claiming that many MCP members and supporters are following the proceedings of the inquiry.
Kamphangala has also appealed to the MCP family to reserve their comments on the social media and wait till the end saying accounts being heard at the inquiry are carrying realities and not fictions.
