Academic Freedom 2011

He was head of the Academic Freedom Commission in 2011, where democratically elected President Bingu Mutharika had a standoff with the lecturers at UNIMA. This was the result of a lecturer, Dr Blessings Chinsinga being summoned by the police Inspector General Peter Mukhito for comparisons Chinsinga drew in a political science class with regards to the Egyption uprisings in 2011 that resulted in the overthrow of President Hosni Mubarak. It led to the firing of Dr Blessings Chinsinga, Jessie Kabwila-Kapasula, Gaston Kanchedzera, Edge Kanyongoro and Franz Amin. It also led to student protests at the University of Malawi. The six-man Commission of Inquiry, headed by Prof. Brown Chimphamba, was convened by Mutharika ‘to define academic freedom, investigate the cause of the stand-off and propose measures to avoid future ones’.
