[AFRICANEWS] A man in Malawi has been convicted of insulting President Lazarus Chakwera after posting a TikTok video showing an animated figure, with Chakwera's face superimposed on it, doing some quirky dance moves. Sainani Nkhoma was found guilty by a court on Thursday, which said he had posted the video and insulting comments about the president on a community WhatsApp group. Members of the group in the central town of Mponela reported him to the ruling Malawi Congress Party, and he was arrested on Tuesday night. |
