Security expert Sheriff Kaisi has praised President Arthur Peter Mutharika for selecting new leaders to head the Malawi Police Service and the Malawi Defence Force. Kaisi described the appointments as an important step toward rebuilding the nation's security agencies. He noted that political meddling has weakened these institutions for years, with ruling parties allegedly using police and military personnel to harass opposition members.
Kaisi said the newly appointed officers have the skills and experience needed to implement reforms if they remain impartial and honor their constitutional duties. He urged Mutharika to continue supporting independence and accountability within security forces. The appointments were announced earlier this week as part of the president's plan to restructure the sector and ensure both services operate without political influence.
