AGP Executive Report

Last update: 6 hours ago

Kidnapping Alert (Blantyre): British mother Nusrat Osman, 47, was abducted in broad daylight at about 12:30pm on Friday from Mount Pleasant by four men in a grey Nissan Dualis; police have offered a reward of 30 million Malawi kwacha (about £12,600) and say they are blitzing the public with SMS updates as the motive remains unknown. Constituency Development Fund (CDF): Government has released K85.5 billion for CDF projects to 30 councils, with advance payments to contractors so work can start immediately, plus K5.4bn for project management and K2.8bn for sports and creative arts. Health (Measles-Rubella): Malawi will run a measles-rubella supplementary vaccination campaign from Sept 21–25 for children aged 9 months to 9 years, with vitamin A for 6 months to 5 years. Governance & Courts: The High Court has halted MCA’s exam ban affecting 115 students, ordering the case to proceed after an injunction issued Sept 15. Politics (Oversight row): President Peter Mutharika and Speaker Sameer Suleman agreed to pause 12 planned joint ad hoc parliamentary investigations following a High Court interim order. Economy (Forex pressure): APL says persistent foreign exchange shortages are disrupting vehicle supply and making it harder to meet demand. Agriculture & Finance: Finance Minister Joseph Mwanamvekha welcomed an EIB-backed €7.5m (K15.6bn) partnership with Centenary Bank to expand affordable credit for small farmers and agri-food businesses.
