The Human Rights Defenders Coalition-HRDC says it will organize more protests next year to help Malawi citizens demand good governance and accountability by those in power.

HRDC chairperson, Timothy Mtambo, says punitive laws, increasing corruption, authority incompetence and impunity; and oppression of the poor have been the order of the day.

Mtambo says this is the more citizens need sensitization to understand the importance of demonstrations and protests as their role towards achieving socio-economic development.
