By Dorica Mtenje

LILONGWE (Maravipost): The spirit of community empowerment came alive in Traditional Authority (T/A) Chadza’s area in Lilongwe on Tuesday, as Chief Chadza pledged to make full use of farming materials donated by Salvation for All Ministries International, led by Apostle Clifford Kawinga.

The generous donation, made during a colorful handover ceremony, included hoes, fertilizer, improved seeds, irrigation equipment, and 6,000 bags of maize.

The support targets three farming groups Sasa, Kachitsa, and Chipwete operating under Chief Chadza’s jurisdiction.

Speaking during the event in Senior Chief Chadza,Apostle Kawinga said his ministry’s vision is to ensure that no Malawian goes hungry, emphasizing the need to empower rural farmers with the tools and resources necessary for sustainable food production.

“Our goal is simple to fight hunger and poverty through practical support. We want to see every household food-secure and able to benefit from their hard work,” said Apostle Kawinga.

The donation brought smiles and hope to the beneficiaries, who described the gesture as timely as they prepare for the new farming season.

Chairperson of Sasa Farming Group, Edna Jere, said the assistance will transform their farming experience.

“In the past, we harvested very little because we didn’t have proper tools. Now, with these materials, we expect to produce more and improve our lives,” Jere shared joyfully.

Another beneficiary, Eda Jere from Mingo Village, echoed similar sentiments, pledging to work hand in hand with fellow farmers to make Apostle Kawinga’s vision a reality.

“We will work together and use these resources wisely so that our community can be an example of progress,” she said.

In his remarks, Chief Chadza thanked Apostle Kawinga for remembering rural farmers, noting that such interventions align with government efforts to promote food security and economic empowerment at the grassroots level.

“This support is a blessing to our people. It will not only improve productivity but also uplift lives in our community,” said the chief.

As the rainy season approaches, hope has been rekindled in T/A Chadza’s area a hope rooted in faith, hard work, and the belief that when communities unite, hunger can truly become a thing of the past.

2025 Chipiku Premier League: Extreme thrash Mbabzi

…..Extreme 3-0 Mbabzi

By Edwin Mbewe

MCHINJI-(MaraviPost)-Extreme Football Club on Sunday registered an emphatic 3-0 victory over Mbabzi United at Owen Malijani ground in Mchinji in their opening game of the second round.

In a fascinating match played under scorching weather in Traditional Authority Mavwere, both sides started on a high note, pressing in search of early goals.

The home side drew first blood in the 41st minute through Sly Antonie. After this goal, Extreme pushed for more but were denied by Mbabzi’s defense, and the match ended 1-0 at halftime.

While Mbabzi hoped to equalize early in the second half, Extreme had other plans as Gregory Mwase stretched the home lead just 10 minutes after the restart.

Mbabzi continued to struggle containing the home side, especially in midfield, with attacker Sly Antonie terrorizing the visitors’ defense with his magical moves into the box.

In the 87th minute, Antonie completed his brace after catching the defense napping and slotting the ball into the net to make it 3-0. Shortly after, the final whistle confirmed Extreme’s first win of the second round.

The victory took Extreme’s tally to 35 points, reducing the gap to three points behind leaders Blue Eagles Reserve, who have 38 points from 16 games, as they continue to pressure the Area 30-based side for the championship.

Mbabzi remain in 8th position with 19 points from 16 games, having won 5, drawn 4, and lost 7.

Extreme FC head coach Trust Nyirenda praised his players for their fighting spirit and victory.

“The boys gave their all in today’s match, hence the victory. It was a tough game since Mbabzi are also a good side, but we capitalized on their mistakes. We played them in the first round and took note of their weaknesses.

“We are fighting to qualify for the National Division League next season. We believe we will make it as we have rectified the challenges that led to our relegation from the elite league,” Nyirenda said.

Mbabzi United General Secretary Vincent Malizani expressed concerns over the team’s continued poor run but downplayed fears of relegation from the league they have competed in for decades.

“We recruited very youthful players as per recommendations from the CRFA, hence it took us time to gel. But other teams still used older players, and this affected our ability to produce consistent results, though we are able to win some games.

“The other factor is officiating, especially in away games, as decisions seem to favour home sides. But we will improve and avoid relegation from the league,” said Malizani.

Mbabzi United play their second game on Wednesday at home against Pyramid FC.

Extreme FC were relegated from the TNM Super League in the 2023 season and are fighting to return through the NBS Bank National Division League next season.

The K25 million Chipiku Stores Premier League second round produced 13 goals from five games.

In other Sunday results, Chisomo Academy lost 1-2 at home against TN Stars, with Chifundo Ngochela scoring for the hosts while Noah Malizwe and Joseph Kasewetha found the net for TN Stars.

2025 Chipiku Premier League: Airborne Rangers complete transfer of 14 new players

By Edwin Mbewe

LILONGWE–(MaraviPost)-The Chipiku Premier Division League military side based in Salima, Parachute Battalion-Airborne Rangers has completed the transfer of 14 new players in the just-closed Central Region Football Association (CRFA) transfer window.

General Secretary of the team, Madalo Mkwate, says the signings follow a crisis meeting called by Parachute Battalion Unit Commander Lt Col RM Masese after the team’s undesirable first-round performance in the ongoing MK25 million Chipiku Stores Premier Division League.

“Indeed, we have completed the signings of 14 players following a crisis meeting we had with our unit commander regarding the team’s poor run in the league.

“We had an overaged squad that seemed tired and fatigued, hence we had to utilize the extended transfer window to overhaul the team. We have reinforced all departments, as previous players failed to contain other opponents who are using youthful squads,” he stated.

Rangers which were relegated from the TNM Super League in the 2014-2015 season, have struggled to convince in the league for a decade now.

Currently, the team finished the first round in 11th position with 17 points from 15 games, having won 4, lost 6, and drawn 5. The soldiers have scored 26 goals and conceded 26.

The Central Region Football Association (CRFA) mid-season transfer window opened on 11th October and was projected to close on the 18th.

However, the period was extended by one more week to accommodate teams that had yet to finish their first-round games.

CRFA General Secretary Antonio Manda confirmed the extension: “We extended the window period following an appeal from teams and considering that three teams didn’t finish their round one games.

“We found it imperative to extend the window. Green Rangers were suspended from playing games due to their conduct of assaulting referees”

Blue Eagles Reserve FC finished the first round at the summit following their impressive run in their maiden Premier Division League.

The Area 30-based cops managed to win 11 games, draw 2, and lose 2, scoring 30 goals and conceding 10, with a goal difference of 20.

The second round is anticipated to start on Saturday, as Airborne Rangers host Chatoloma ADMARC at Mangoes Ground, leaders Blue Eagles Reserve play against Armour Battalion at Nankhaka Stadium, and Pyramid FC host Mchinji Boma Strikers.
