Sele Media Malawi — Reported by Rahim Abdul
Blantyre, Malawi – FCB Nyasa Big Bullets has announced the immediate suspension of Mr. Stone Mwamadi, who until now served as Chairperson of the Supporters’ National Executive Committee. The decision comes amid serious allegations concerning Mwamadi’s alleged involvement in a recent incident currently under police investigation—an affair that has sparked public outcry.
According to a club statement obtained by Zaamtv, the suspension is intended to ensure that due process is respected and to protect the club’s integrity, values, and reputation. The statement emphasized that the club maintains a zero‑tolerance policy toward any conduct that could bring the Bullets name into disrepute.
> “We will not tolerate behaviour capable of bringing the club’s name into disrepute,” the club statement reads, affirming their commitment to discipline and professionalism.
In the interim, *Mr. Chingeni Gumbala Kadam’manja* has been appointed as Acting National Supporters Chairperson, pending the outcome of investigations and internal review.

Context & Reactions
Over the years, FCB Nyasa Big Bullets and its supporters have occasionally been embroiled in controversies involving misconduct and disciplinary action:
– In June 2024, during a match against Silver Strikers, Bullets’ supporters threw stones and bottles onto the field, forcing the match to end prematurely. The club was later charged by the Super League of Malawi (SULOM) for failing to control their supporters and bringing the game into disrepute. [1]
– The club has also been penalised in past seasons for fan violence, including fines and suspended bans. [2]
– In 2024, the club publicly condemned supporters’ attacks on Silver Strikers’ team bus, pledging compensation and cooperation in investigations. [3]
While no public details have been confirmed regarding the specific allegations against Mr. Mwamadi, the club’s swift action suggests seriousness and an intent to preserve order and reputation.
