Malawi news publishing 24 hours a day about Malawi, including business, tourism, politics, and news.
Let’s be clear — this is not a personal attack on Mbeta as a man and as a professional. His brilliance as a lawyer is not in dispute.
But with all due respect, if I had the immense powers that President Peter Mutharika wields today, I would never consider appointing Mr. Mbeta to critical offices such as Attorney General, Director of Public Prosecutions, Director of the Anti-Corruption Bureau, or Minister of Justice.
These positions are not simply about legal prowess or political loyalty — they are about character, integrity, and conviction.
- Attorney General (AG)
- Director of Public Prosecutions (DPP)
- Director of the Anti-Corruption Bureau (ACB)
- Minister of Justice
These roles are the cornerstones of justice, the gatekeepers of accountability, and the defenders of the public interest.
Author’s summary: Mbeta’s appointment raises concerns about Mutharika’s leadership.
