General Vincent Nundwe rose to prominence in Malawi when Malawi was going through one of its most hectic and violent times soon after the announcement of the 2019 Presidential and elections. While Malawians held regular and violent street protests protesting against the results and calling for a rerun of the elections.
While the Police was visibly bent on stopping the protests at all cost, the MDF stepped in to ensure the protests go ahead but in an orderly manner, immediately earning the praise of the citizens and human rights organisations.
General Nundwe paid the ultimate price, he was fired as Commander of the MDF, only to be restored about 5 months later when a new government was ushered in.
In this interview we talk about his career as soldier, serving as an outstanding paratrooper, rising through the ranks as an Administrator up to occupying the top most job in the Defence Force.
