By Edwin Mbewe
LILONGWE-(MaraviPost)-Goals from Chikumbutso Salima and Babatunde Adepujo were enough to defeat Kamuzu Barracks on Thursday, 27th November at Civo Stadium in Area 9, Lilongwe.
The visitors showed their intent to secure maximum points from the onset, creating numerous chances in the opening 20 minutes.
Bullets won a free kick outside the penalty box in the 2nd minute. Chrispin Mapemba’s effort struck the wall, and on the rebound, he blazed over the bar.
In the 4th minute, Babatunde Adepujo took a long-range effort that rattled the left post. Ephraim Kondowe reacted to the rebound but rifled his effort wide.
A minute later, Yamikani Mologeni overlapped on the right flank before whipping in a cross to find Kondowe, whose header went wide.
The pressure continued in the 10th minute when Salima set up Wongani Lungu, whose shot was saved by Kamuzu Barracks goalkeeper Charles Chisale for a corner.
Mapemba took another good shot that the goalkeeper fumbled towards his own net, but one of his defenders cleared it before it crossed the line.
The soldiers couldn’t endure the relentless pressure. In the 12th minute, Chikumbutso Salima broke the deadlock after excellent interplay with Chawanangwa Gumbo.
After the goal, Bullets’ Innocent Nyasulu and defender Andrew Jovinala nearly cost their team with a defensive mix-up, but they recovered before Zeliat Nkhoma could capitalize.
Kamuzu Barracks came close to leveling in the 21st minute when John Mchema’s bicycle kick went over the bar.
The visitors also shot over the bar when Wongani Lungu tried his luck from distance in the 25th minute. The home side made their first substitution in the 27th minute as Raphic Bahat was replaced by Smey Chimunkho. Chisale made a crucial save from Mapemba who broke through on the left in the 28th minute.
Kamuzu Barracks had a penalty appeal turned down by referee Godfrey Nkhakananga in the 33rd minute. The home side attacked down the left through Zeliat Nkhoma, who won his battle against Jovinala and went down in the penalty area, but the referee waved play on.
Bullets’ Mologeni whipped in a corner kick to find Babatunde Adepujo, whose header went wide of the post in the 41st minute.
Babatunde Adepujo fired in the second goal just before halftime.
Chikumbutso Salima beat Lloyd Mughala on the right before delivering a stunning cross into the box, and the lanky forward rose highest to meet the pass, ending the first half with Bullets leading 2-0.
At the start of the second half, Bullets made three changes as Hassan Kajoke, Sean McBrams, and Kennedy Musonda replaced Chrispin Mapemba, Ephraim Kondowe, and Aaron Chilipa.
Substitute Sean McBrams accelerated down the right in the 48th minute, beating two markers before putting in a brilliant cross to find Salima, whose header skewed wide.
The soldiers tried to respond through Captain Gregory Nachipo, who attempted an effort through a crowd of legs in the 50th minute, but his powerful shot from his weaker foot couldn’t beat Nyasulu.
Chikumbutso Salima outpaced his marker in the 58th minute before delivering a good ball to the edge of the box, finding Hassan Kajoke whose effort went over the bar.
Kamuzu Barracks made another change in the 74th minute as Zinjani Yona replaced Geoffrey Game. In the 78th minute, Lumbani Mkandawire was booked with a yellow card for a bad foul.
As the match approached its dying minutes, Bullets scored through Hassan Kajoke, but it was ruled out for offside in the 83rd minute.
Coach Mponda substituted Babatunde Adepujo and Chikumbutso Salima for Peter Banda and Bright Munthali in the 88th minute.
Kamuzu Barracks nearly reduced the deficit when Captain Gregory Nachipo whipped in a brilliant corner to find a teammate, whose header was brilliantly saved by Innocent Nyasulu. Soon after, the match ended with Kamuzu Barracks 0-2 FCB Nyasa Big Bullets.
Bullets’ Chikumbutso Salima was voted player of the match.
Kamuzu Barracks head coach Nicholas Mhango acknowledged the defeat, saying they didn’t play according to plan.
“We conceded two goals in the first half and our plan didn’t work out. In the second half we played better but failed to score. If we had played at home at Champion Stadium, we could have done better, but still we will play to get maximum points in our remaining four games,” said Mhango.
Bullets assistant coach Gilbert Chirwa was excited about the win.
“We played very well and created a lot of chances today. The result is a true reflection of how we played.
There is no team which plays well without pressure—even those fighting the relegation battle have it. Today it’s water under the bridge; let’s prepare for our next game on Sunday against Creck Sporting Club,” Chirwa said.
The win has taken FCB Nyasa Big Bullets to the summit of the table with 56 points from 24 games, opening a one-point gap over second-placed Mighty Wanderers FC, who have 55 points from 23 matches.
Meanwhile, at Champion Stadium, MAFCO defeated Civil Service United 1-0 courtesy of China Chirwa’s lone goal.

General Horta Nta Na Man has been sworn in as the transitional president of Guinea-Bissau following the removal of President Umaro Sissoco Embaló in a military coup.
The armed forces announced the takeover after a disputed election that deepened political tensions across the nation.
Military spokespersons said the coup was necessary because the country’s stability had deteriorated under months of political deadlock.
They accused the outgoing administration of failing to safeguard national cohesion and allowing divisions to paralyse governance.
According to the junta, the disputed election undermined public trust and left the nation facing what they described as an institutional crisis.
A one-year transition period has now been declared to restore constitutional order and prepare for fresh elections.
General Na Man, in his inaugural remarks, pledged to stabilise the country and ensure an inclusive political process.
He also promised that the armed forces would not cling to power beyond the designated transition timeline.
Regional observers and international partners are closely monitoring developments amid renewed concerns about democratic backsliding in West Africa.
The Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS) has called for calm and urged a swift return to civilian rule.
Guinea-Bissau now enters a critical phase as citizens wait to see whether the transitional leadership will deliver on its promises of reform and stability.
The success of the one-year transition will determine whether the country can overcome its recurring cycles of political turmoil.

LILONGWE-(MaraviPost)-Readers on the BBC Facebook page have exploded with humour, satire, and disbelief following claims that security dogs from Malawi’s State House were stolen.
Many users immediately questioned the need for such dogs if they could disappear so easily.
Others joked that Malawians must be shooting a new blockbuster titled “The 4 German Shepherds.”
Some commenters remarked that the missing German Shepherds have now become more famous than local artists.
A few teased that the dogs were actually “expatriates” from South Africa working within the police service.
One user exclaimed “Haibo!” to express shock at the absurdity of the situation.
Another proposed a film titled “German Shepherd at Kamuzu Palace” to dramatise the incident.
Several readers urged everyone not to take the matter too seriously.
One commenter declared that “the king’s dog is king for all dogs,” suggesting that someone stole royal creatures.
Another joked that the correct movie title should be “State House German Shepherd Theft.”
Many pointed out that the story had now gone viral across all platforms.
Some claimed the dogs must have been taken as a sendoff gift when someone left State House.
Others suggested that the dogs might simply have returned to Germany on their own.
A few insisted the missing dogs must have been pedigree German Shepherds, hence the commotion.
Some users reflected humorously that Malawians love to play too much with serious matters.
Another proposed yet another film title: “The Lost Shepherds.”
Some joked that the proper headline should have read “Former President of Malawi Stole 4 German Shepherds.”
Another corrected it further, insisting it should be “Former President of Malawi Assemblies of God Stole 4 German Shepherds.”
At least one commenter distanced themselves, stating that former President Lazarus Chakwera is not their former president.
Others argued that the dogs merely followed him when he moved out and that nothing was actually stolen.
Some added humour by claiming a middleman had been arrested while the kingpin was left holding his fingers.
One reader introduced music by referencing DJ Faka’s “Who Let the Dogs Out.”
Others mocked the idea of a pastor getting involved in such a comical scandal.
Some wondered if people seriously believed Dr. Lazarus Chakwera could be accused of theft.
Others described the situation as “kuyaluka kuposa apa,” meaning extreme chaos or exaggeration.
Some mentioned that he is known as “Kwantere,” adding cultural flavour to the humour.
One warned mysteriously that “night has ears,” implying the dogs might be listening.
Another joked that Malawi is so chaotic that even mangoes get stolen.
More users repeated that the best movie title would simply be “4 German Shepherd Dogs.”
Others insisted the dogs were not stolen but followed their “fellow dog.”
Some stressed again that the whole saga is nothing more than a movie concept.
A few joked that the dogs were kidnapped, not stolen.
One commenter said the headline should have been “The Ex-Shepherd Stole Shepherds.”
Others hilariously noted that even cats have been stolen before.
Some concluded that Malawi has now become a full-time comedy series.
Many pointed out that German Shepherds are expensive and that thieves should be locked up.
Some joked that “security has been stolen,” hinting at deeper concerns.
A few insisted the missing dogs deserve recognition in the Guinness World Records.
One commenter declared the incident equivalent to kidnapping four police officers.
Another asked sarcastically whether the mother of the dogs had lodged a complaint.
Some noted that the issue has become so widespread that even the Area Chairperson must know.
Others wrapped it up by calling the entire saga “Animal Farm,” a fitting metaphor for the bizarre events.

BLANTYRE-(MaraviPost)-National Bank of Malawi (NBM) plc has awarded six outstanding innovators for their impactful solutions at the 2025 ICT Association of Malawi (ICTAM) Innovation Jam Awards held in Mangochi at the weekend.
Staff Nyoni emerged the overall winner under Imagine Tech category with an assistive learning platform called ‘The Blind Classroom’ designed for visually impaired learners, a solution he says is already transforming learning outcomes.
Nyoni said his innovation emerged from witnessing first-hand the academic struggles faced by visually impaired learners.
He thanked NBM plc for believing in the project which walked away with K2.5 million and a fully funded incubation programme sponsored by the Bank.
“Sometimes an idea alone is not enough you need people who believe in it. NBM plc has shown that they believe in the work we are doing, and we are truly grateful. We also encourage other organisations to support innovations, as this will help drive national development,” said Nyoni.
Earn Mwachangu emerged winner in the FinTech and Digital Economy category, receiving K2 million and an all-expenses incubation programme scheduled to take place in Zambia in 2026, under NBM plc’s sponsorship.
Other recognised winners included Zaulimi App under Agritech category, National Digital Health Systems under eHealth, Chipatala App under She-code spotlight, and E-Flood under Open-Source category, each walked away with K1.5 million.
Speaking during the awards dinner, NBM plc Mobile and e-Money Services Manager, Enala Chirwa, said the Bank has been a consistent supporter of ICTAM’s Innovation Jam since 2019 and has significantly increased its investment in 2025.
“The 2025 edition marks our highest commitment yet, with K75.5 million invested. The Bank’s motivation is anchored on two major pillars: identifying and supporting the brightest innovative minds and providing platforms for visibility and growth for innovators,” said Chirwa.
She added that the Bank’s broader mission aligns with Malawi’s digital ambitions.
“Our strategic objective is to become the most digitalised bank in Malawi by 2027. But we cannot be the most digitalised bank if the nation itself is not digitalised. And the nation can only be digitalised if we have innovation in this space. That is why NBM plc remains committed to supporting the Innovation Jam,” she said.
Chirwa emphasised that NBM plc’s involvement goes beyond awards and monetary gifts.
“Our support does not end with giving out cash prizes. We are funding an incubation programme for the winning innovators. Over the next few months, they will undergo grooming, mentorship and technical support to help them scale and strengthen their innovations,” said Chirwa.
In his remarks, ICTAM President Clarence Gama commended NBM plc for the support and the innovators for playing a crucial role in shaping Malawi’s developmental path.
“Innovators are thinkers and this country needs thinkers if we are to move forward. Our role as ICTAM is to identify these thinkers, nurture them, and through partnerships with institutions like NBM plc and UNDP, help them turn their ideas into impactful national solutions,” said Gama.
This year, NBM plc sponsored the 2024 overall winner, Goodall Salima to go to Ghana to attend the Third Annual TICON Africa Conference.
