News

By Smile Hamilton Malawi

Leader of the United Transformation Movement (UTM) in Parliament, Patricia Kaliati, has urged the Minister of Homeland to conduct a thorough investigation into the circumstances surrounding the tragic plane crash in Chikangawa that claimed the life of former Vice President Saulos Chilima.

Speaking in Parliament, Kaliati described the loss of prominent national figures as deeply painful and said it demands urgent government attention.

She called on the minister to ensure that Malawi does not continue to lose key leaders and professionals in such devastating incidents.

“The government must institute a fresh inquiry to establish the real cause of the crash and to ensure that those responsible are held accountable,” said Kaliati.

The plane crash occurred on June 10, 2024, when a Malawi Defence Force Dornier 228 carrying Vice President Saulos Chilima, former First Lady Patricia Shanil Muluzi, and seven others went down in Chikangawa Forest Reserve in Nkhata Bay District, killing all on board.
