Government has made some changes to security detail for former presidents Joyce Banda, Peter Mutharika and Bakili Muluzi.
Joyce Banda has additional security
Malawi Police Service has withdrawn two security guards from Banda and replaced with five; and deployed five to Mutharika and one to Muluzi.
This is according to police communication dated 17th February, 2021.
The withdrawn police guards are sub Inspectors Vincent Mtalawi and Isaac Msukumwa who are redeployed to Police Mobile Service (PMS).
Those deployed to Banda include sub inspector Alick Chafikana from PMS; Gift Kupheka from Chimbiya police unit; sergeant Yohane Mlenga from PMS; Sgt Chimwemwe Mkwamba from Muloza police unit and Sgt Aaron Amon from Lilongwe police station.
His father, Getson Nyondo, has confirmed of the development.
On 4 January, Malawi Police Service released a statement saying that the younger Nyondo was a suspect in a robbery that happened on New Year’s Eve, pointing out that he was shot by a Malawi Broadcasting Corporation security guard at Njamba in Blantyre after a scuffle with the guard and a Police Mobile Service officer.
However, the family insisted that the deceased was on his way to a religious crossover service but was shot using a pump gun with pellet bullets for being mistaken as a mugger.
