Mzimba Ngoni Chiefs Council chairperson Inkosi Mpherembe said he will not condone any form of violence in his area.

He said: “Violence is barbaric behaviour, it is uncalled for and it has no room in democratic Malawi. I cannot tolerate that.”

On his part, Inkosi Kampingo Sibande said one of their roles as chiefs is to enforce peace in communities. He said he will work closely with other chiefs to sensitise the youth to consequences of violence.

Inkosi Khosolo and Mzukuzuku said they will invite political party leaders to devise a peaceful campaign before campaign starts.

Recently, Democratic Progressive Party (DPP) youth cadets caused chaos during the opening of the 2018/19 budget meeting at Parliament Building in Lilongwe where they barred Mulanje West legislator Patricia Kaliati  and Blantyre City East legislator Noel Masangwi from entering Parliament. They also beat up Times Group journalist Douglas Banda for taking pictures of the supporters as they were being evicted from Parliament. n
