hit him this side god knows maybe the chest and so on so that's why it was meant that he should not survive i don't want to believe that it was a miak state because what speed was the person what he said the the brexit failed why was it entered to the brexit failed when uh under the kandawiri was opening the gate no i don't want to believe that and i want the police to go to the bottom of this thing if this police is still police men still belong to the pf let them treat that man with kid gloves but otherwise no i appeal to the police command let them take this matter very serious we are not safe our mps are not safe our leaders are not safe what you're saying madame is is that he had walked his car and walked out of the car he was bashed when he was outside the gate he was trying to open the gate and he was bashed outside the gate so the vehicle had to be wrapped into in some kandawiri's vehicle and it moved to kandawiri and up to this place where kandawiri was come again the man hit me some kandawiri he hit the vehicle he hit the vehicle first at the back in some kandawiri then the same vehicle came now the the the assassins vehicle i'll call him that came to hit him here hit here and then that's how the office that's how the office thank you very much for where was he coming from okay all right that's the upnz deputy deputy secretary general there i'm madame gertrude amenda just narrating to us what she has heard as regards to what transpired here and according to the information that we have received right at this very moment is that mistam kandawiri was just hit there um well i am just pointing at as he was trying to come out you know from his yard let me talk to the upnz media director tabukawana was also come here the residents of mistam kandawiri i would have to say it's a good afternoon in this moment of shock i lost my words and here i pass my future kandawiri since family of one of them kandawiri we got the news about the accident and uh we came here to see for us and i think what is happening is like we have seen fresh in the road itself this is a speed limit of 30 to 40 kilometers per hour this is a smooth street but if you look at the impact it shows you that one would not be far from the truth if one suspected that this was an assassination attempt but we will not speculate we will leave the matters to the police to be able to investigate or do their job and when they come up with a conclusion now let us know but we remain shocked we remain fearful we remain lost for words but at the same time we remain complaining because we cannot understand how a vehicle in this street which is in a residential area could be driving at such a high speed and missing all targets but clearly getting off the road and targeting our our member of parliament here to a point where the crash looks like it was intended to ensure that when they hit him he can't survive the crash and this is what has happened so we are shocked really we are shocked we are saddened by these events but we leave it all in the hands of the Lord we also leave the official communication as far as what transpired to the police to do their work and they will tell us what they would have found all right thank you so much Mr. Tokawana for having an interview with us thank you very much okay Mr. Tokawana there who is the UPND alans media director also giving us an interview as regards to what transpired according to what you know the people the UPND you know members are saying here they are actually alleging that this could have been an you know a suspension attempt but we do understand that the driver who was arriving the vehicle has since been arrested and the police have actually began to give interview and investigating rather this particular you know science development that occurred good evening this is the honorable Levin Kandawire speaking I'm alive as you can see from the video there's a fake news that has securated on social media I want to confirm and affirm that Levin Kandawire is alive very much alive as you can see from this video thank you very much he has died I'm telling you my husband is just from calling
