Chikakwiya sues Ndirande SDA church
by Ellen Lusinje, 03 November 2004 - 08:43:51
UDF regional governor for the South John Chikakwiya has sued Ndirande Seventh Day Adventist Church Board and Pastor Benson Mbewe for character assassination.
Chikakwiya told The Nation on Tuesday this is in reaction to the story this paper carried entitled SDA excommunicates Chikakwiya.
“The church is spoiling my Christian life and I should also point out that heaven is not a monopoly,” said Chikakwiya.
According to anonymous sources Chikakwiya was excommunicated from the church following remarks that he made at Bakili Muluzi’s rally in Bangwe, Blantyre that Malawi would face genocide if UDF politicians are not respected.
In an interview Monday Chikakwiya confirmed the excommunication but refused to shed more light on the issue.
The church’s pastor also refused to comment on the issue, saying it is against the church’s rules.
