Speak up like a brave person: Reflections on “CHIGOBA” Bakili Muluzi TV

In today’s digital age, personalities like Bakili Muluzi TV (BMTV)-which has been operating undercover) have become household names, particularly among Malawians who follow online platforms for news, commentary, and public discourse. With a style that is both bold and unfiltered, Muluzi has captured the attention — and sometimes the ire — of audiences across the country.

Sylvester Kalizang’oma recently weighed in on Muluzi’s approach, urging people to “speak up like a brave person.”

Indeed, watching Bakili Muluzi TV, it is easy to see why such advice resonates. His on-screen presence is audacious, direct, and unapologetic — qualities that often make viewers either cheer or cringe.

Kalizang’oma notes that some may be tempted to label Muluzi as reckless, brash, or even arrogant.

Yet, as Muluzi himself has implied with the phrase “akulu akulu” — referring to leaders or people in authority — his approach is purposeful. Even if his style causes temporary discomfort, it often challenges those in power to reflect and, in some cases, respond.

This tension between audacity and responsibility is what makes Muluzi’s platform so compelling. In a media landscape where cautious reporting is the norm, he chooses to push boundaries.

His commentary is bold, but it is also rooted in a desire to hold leaders accountable and provoke public discussion.

Of course, the very qualities that make him popular also invite criticism. Some accuse him of sensationalism, while others suggest his unfiltered commentary risks misunderstanding or conflict.

But in an era where ordinary citizens struggle to have their voices heard, figures like Bakili Muluzi TV remind us of the value of fearless communication.

Kalizang’oma’s advice — to speak boldly yet responsibly — applies not only to media personalities but to all citizens who wish to engage with governance, policy, or public debate.

Muluzi’s work demonstrates that speaking out, even when it ruffles feathers, can serve a greater purpose: holding leaders accountable and encouraging open discourse.

In the end, Bakili Muluzi TV is more than just an online personality.

He symbolizes the power of audacity, the influence of digital media, and the role of fearless voices in shaping public dialogue.

As Kalizang’oma aptly puts it, if we are to speak out, we must do so like brave individuals — unafraid, thoughtful, and ready to stand by our words.

Identity of “Bakili Muluzi TV” allegedly exposed, sparking debate across social media

Bakili Muluzi TV”

Users claim the long-anonymous online figure behind controversial political content has finally been unmasked

By Burnett Munthali

A social media storm erupted on Thursday after claims surfaced suggesting that the person behind the notorious “Bakili Muluzi TV” Facebook page has finally been identified. The page, known for its frequent political commentary and alleged defamation, has for years operated under anonymity, earning both a loyal following and fierce criticism.

Online commentator James C. Makopa was among the first to assert that the individual behind the account had been unmasked. According to Makopa, the person allegedly linked to the page once worked with him, prompting many users to believe the revelation may be credible.

Agape Khembo added fuel to the discussion, stating that “a person cannot hide forever,” and claiming that the man revealed in circulating screenshots and posts is Haswel—the individual allegedly responsible for running Bakili Muluzi TV. Khembo described him as the “champion of online defamation,” reflecting the frustration many have expressed over the years about the page’s content.

Former legislator Jessie Kabwila also weighed in, acknowledging that although the alleged administrator’s identity may have finally been revealed, his ability to operate anonymously for years demonstrated considerable tactical skill. “Even though we have removed the mask, we must credit him for managing to hide for so long. His forty days have finally come,” she said.

Kabwila also encouraged anyone who may have been defamed or wronged by the page to take legal action now that there is an alleged identity to attach to the long-running grievances. Her comments have fueled further discussion, with many debating whether to accept the circulating information as factual or to wait for more concrete verification.

As the debate intensifies, social media users remain divided—some convinced the true identity of Bakili Muluzi TV has finally come to light, while others argue that more evidence is required before drawing conclusions. What remains clear is that the alleged unmasking has reopened conversations about digital accountability, anonymous political influence, and the impact of online platforms in Malawi’s public discourse.

Authorities have not yet issued a statement, and the individual at the centre of the allegations has not responded publicly. The story continues to unfold as Malawians watch closely to see whether the claims will be confirmed—and what consequences may follow.
