Mulhako Wa Alhomwe festivities in pictures

Over the weekend, all roads led to Chonde in Luchenza Mulanje where the Lhomwe people were commemorating the 1st anniversary to the day they launched their cultural grouping, the Mulhako Wa Alhomwe. There was eating, drinking and dancing among many other things. It was all, Alhomwe Noophiya, meaning Lhomwes have arrived. Malawi Digest was there to capture the event for you.

  4. Good pictures. Though a Tumbuka, I don't see any reason why people are making a fuss about Mulhako. Let them come together and defend their tribe.

  5. The Ngoni's led by Mbelwa are doing it, the Chewas under Malewezi and I hear Lundu is forming his Mang'anja grouping. What's wrong you Malawians.

  6. Koman a Chairman a Mulhako a Mwanamvekhawo ndiye kuvalatu. Mpaka trouser ya Chitenje cha Mulhako? I have have laughed my lungs out. Is this the same guy who was being framed as RBM governor? No wonder he lost a post. Is he still the Malawi Savings Bank CEO?

  9. Very interesting news about alomwe in Malawi. The Idea of learning and writing emakhuwa/elomwe languages is great. so I suggest to those interested in the language to see the site www.muthuko.zoomshare.com having active home page, photos and blog.

    Congratulations to those seeking to revive and develope peoples culture. Success
