Report Links Malawi Army to Vice President Saulos Chilima's Death in Air Crash | Firstpost Africa

A year after Malawi’s Vice President Saulos Chilima and eight others died in a military plane crash, a German investigation has revealed shocking negligence by the Malawi Defence Forces. The aircraft was not airworthy, with an expired certification, unresolved mechanical issues, a medically unfit pilot, and a dead emergency beacon battery from 2004. Crucial flight recorders were also missing. Despite these red flags, the plane was used for high-level missions. The findings have sparked national outrage, with calls for an independent inquiry, military accountability, and aviation reform. Chilima’s death has left a major void in Malawi’s political future.
