Alex Kamangila once stood as a beacon of hope in the murky waters of Malawi’s judiciary system, a voice against corruption and malpractice that won him admiration and support. His bold allegations against judges like Ken Manda and prominent lawyers such as Wapona Kita and George Kadzipatike electrified the public.
Kamangira’s bravery in exposing what he claimed were deeply-entrenched judicial conspiracies positioned him as a hero of justice. But heroes can fall, and Kamangila’s trajectory has now veered disturbingly off-course.
Today, Allex Kamangila has degenerated into a polarizing figure. Instead of staying steadfast to his original cause – fighting corruption and pushing for justice – he has devolved into what may be seen as a bitter opportunist using his fraudulently cultivated fame to settle personal scores.
His relentless Facebook rants have morphed into tirades targeting an ever-expanding list of individuals, often without a shred of evidence to support his claims. It is no longer about exposing corruption, but about feeding an insatiable appetite for attention and controversy.
The absence of evidence in his serious accusations is the most damning aspect of Kamangila’s antics. His accusations lack the rigor and credibility that ought to define his intended cause of ensuring justice and eradication of corruption in our society.
If corruption is as rampant as he claims, why not supply to the public concrete proof against those he accuses? His reckless approach undermines not only his credibility, but also the very fight against corruption he claims to champion. It paints him as a man less interested in justice and more interested in tearing down those he has personal issues with.
