Malawian lawyer Alexious Kamangila's allegations of corruption have prompted an investigation by the Judicial Service Commission, highlighting significant issues in Malawi's judiciary.
Patrick Mpaka emphasized that the judiciary must maintain independence, which hinges on public trust—allegations of corruption seriously threaten this essential trust.
Mpaka articulated the urgency of restoring public confidence, stating that confidence in the judiciary is necessary for upholding unpopular rulings that may not initially sit well with the public.
He called for a swift, transparent response from regulatory institutions to either clear judges' names or ensure accountability, noting that trust cannot be restored without effective measures.
