AGP Executive Report

Last update: 11 hours ago

Activist Custody Row: Malawi’s Homeland Security minister Peter Mukhito denied claims that detained civil rights activist Sylvester Namiwa is being denied basic necessities, as opposition and civil society leaders renewed calls for his release and access to lawyers. Parliament Standoff: The House rejected a bid to suspend business over Namiwa’s arrest, with the Leader of the House saying police must handle the matter through procedure. Court Fairness Claims: Lawyer Alexious Kamangila accused the High Court of bias in his defamation case, saying his application has been delayed while the judge’s side moved quickly. Human Trafficking Crackdown: Government says it will overhaul the Immigration Act to close loopholes traffickers exploit, including fake job scams and social media lures. HIV Prevention Boost: Malawi has begun rolling out the long-acting PrEP injection Lenacapavir, with about 2,000 people already receiving it. Tobacco Market Pressure: The minister backed a push to reopen Kabwafu Auction Floors after farmers—especially women—described the hardship of selling tobacco far away. Sports—Commonwealth Games: Malawian sprinter Asimenye Simwaka’s 400m campaign ended after disqualification, while the Malawi Queens beat Tonga 55-49 to set up a playoff. WAFCON—Falcons vs Zambia: Nigeria’s Super Falcons face Zambia in a must-win after their shock loss to Malawi, with local broadcasters and streaming options highlighted. Business & Tech: Lindian Resources says it has advanced mining-readiness at Malawi’s Kangankunde rare earths project, while AuKing reports deeper drilling progress at Tundulu. Road Costs: Mzuzu City Council plans new road user fees at entry checkpoints from 10 August. Airtel Money: Tola Promotion winners pushed payouts to K330 million, with the grand draw set for 5 August.
