BLANTYRE-(MaraviPost)-Football Association of Malawi (FAM) President Fleetwood Haiya has issued a bold challenge to his critics, urging them to stop hiding behind what he describes as smear campaigns and instead face him in the ballot during the 2027 FAM elections.
Haiya made the remarks in an interview with the MaraviPost Publication, where he expressed concern over the increasing spread of what he calls “fake news” aimed at damaging his image and creating unnecessary divisions within the football fraternity.
According to Haiya, a specific group of football stakeholders has been relentlessly pushing misinformation with the aim of undermining the progress achieved under his administration.He argued that despite the noise, the results on the ground speak for themselves.
“As far as we are concerned, we are doing the right thing for our football and the results are evidence of this fact,” Haiya said.
“We are not sidelining anybody and these lies are being created by a certain group and we know their end game,”he added.
He went further to warn his detractors against using political tactics to influence football matters, saying that the sport should remain neutral and focused on development rather than personal agendas.
“They should not be hiding behind politics and spreading false news.Let them come out in the open. If they want to contest, or their proxies, let us meet in 2027,”he explained.
Haiya’s remarks come at a time when debates over football leadership and administrative transparency have intensified, especially following the recent success of the Malawi women’s national football team, the Scorchers.
The FAM president has also dismissed claims that he is sidelining National Women’s Football Association (NWFA) President Adelaide Migogo, describing the allegations as baseless and misleading.
The accusations were fueled by a voice note released on social media by Isaac Jomo Osman, owner of Kukoma Ntopwa Women FC, who alleged that Haiya had stolen the spotlight from Migogo after the Scorchers qualified for the 2025 Women’s Africa Cup of Nations (WAFCON) in Morocco.
Haiya, however, insisted that his administration fully respects the structures of women’s football and that no individual efforts were being overshadowed.
He said the Scorchers’ success belongs to the nation and not to any single person.
He also urged football stakeholders to focus on sustaining the momentum behind women’s football rather than promoting divisions that could derail progress.

Krysten Ritter is known for playing powerful women — and is grateful for how her past roles have often “saved the day” in her real-life experiences.
“Playing Jessica Jones, I realized how much strength playing that character gave me and how much protection she has brought me, because she is somebody who is so weighted and so heavy with all of her traumas layered on top and just, like, resentment for her powers and the way she informs how she moves to the world,” Ritter, 43, exclusively old Us Weekly while promoting her new film, Stone Cold Fox. “She’s so tough and she’s so strong, and having the superpowers, having that strength, protects me from all of the trauma that she’s been through. And then all of those layers that you have to build for yourself, Krysten has to play and bring home.”
Ritter explained that Jones’ “strength” ultimately helped protect her from getting “too dark or lost” in her story, which sees Jones battle post-traumatic stress disorder as she attempts to run her own detective agency. Ritter was initially cast as the title character for the 2015 Jessica Jones Netflix series, which ran for four years. She’ll reprise the role for season 2 of Disney+’s Daredevil: Born Again, set to premiere in March 2026.
Tapping into Jessica’s powers — super and mental — has also allowed Ritter to also find strength in her own life, not just on screen. She explained that she’s often channeled the character in her more difficult moments.

“There have been times where I’ve had to, like, find her in my body,” she told Us. “Like, she’s come in and saved the day quite a bit. She kind of reminds me of how strong you can be, even if you lose your way up for a minute.”
Embracing her characters’ attributes doesn’t end with Jessica Jones. Ritter is “surgical” with how she chooses her projects, often opting for strong, morally gray women. That was the case with Ritter’s latest movie, Stone Cold Fox, the neo-noir action thriller that features Ritter as an abusive drug dealer named Goldie opposite Kiernan Shipka.
Ritter said she was drawn to how “unpredictable and crazy” the character was, something she finds “so fun” and “delicious” to play. She noted that crime boss–type roles “don’t always come around” for women, so she jumped at the chance to step into Goldie’s shoes.
“I haven’t seen a role like that, so I was just like, ‘Are you kidding? Yes, check, check, check,’” she said. “And I was looking to do something stylized and over the top, because it’s fun. Anything where you have an opportunity to take a big swing, that’s my MO.”
Ritter was fascinated by how Goldie’s status as a “loner” shaped her life decisions, telling Us, “She’s probably informed by her trauma,” she explained. “She didn’t just become this evil psychopath for no reason. She’s a result of her circumstances, like we all are, but she had an extenuating set of circumstances. And the way that she took control of her life — is it totally insane? Yes, totally insane. But I just love that about her.”
Ritter said she was already “in” by the time her agent called her with the movie’s title, but reading the script sealed the deal even further, as did watching director Sophie Tabet’s first short film, The Lonely Whale.
“I love a first time female director who’s, like, going for it,” Ritter added. “She’s obviously a big Quentin Tarantino fan and Grindhouse fan, and that’s all here [in this movie]. I just wanted to support her.”
Costar Shipka was another woman Ritter was excited to center as a self-admitted big fan of the Chilling Adventure of Sabrina star’s work. Shipka, 25, plays Ritter’s love interest and title character Fox in the film, a young drug addict who breaks away from Goldie’s abusive commune in search of her missing sister.

“She’s so amazing, she’s so incredible, she’s so good,” Ritter gushed. “I always joke that I’m her forever hype woman. We kind of mutually gush over each other, and I think that we just adore each other, to be honest. I’m always like, ‘I’ll be your biggest fan. I’m rooting for you.’ We [just] had our premiere, and I was like, ‘You’re so good in this movie. You look so great, you’re so good at acting, I just love you.’ She’s so cute and so fabulous and such a hard worker.”

Los Angeles Dodgers relief pitcher Alex Vesia has established himself as a critical piece to his team’s bullpen, and his wife, Kayla Vesia, has been by his side the entire way.
In October 2025, however, Alex was forced to step away from the team on the eve of the 2025 World Series against the Toronto Blue Jays as he and Kayla — who announced her pregnancy with baby No. 1 in April 2025 — address a “family matter,” the Dodgers announced.
“It’s with a heavy heart that we share that Alex Vesia is away from the team as he and his wife Kayla navigate a deeply personal family matter,” the team posted via Instagram. “The entire Dodgers organization is sending our thoughts to the Vesia family and we will provide an update at a later date.”
Manager Dave Roberts told the media that he considered Alex “day-to-day” but was placing no expectations on his trusted southpaw. The team left him off their World Series roster.

Kayla and Alex announced in April 2025 that they were expecting via Instagram as they held up a mock newspaper with the headline “Extra! Extra!” and pictures of a sonogram.
“Baby Vesia coming soon, we are beyond excited for this next chapter!” the caption read.
In November 2025, their excitement turned to grief when they mourned the death of their daughter.
“Sterling Sol Vesia🪽. Our little angel we love you forever & you’re with us always,” the couple wrote via Instagram at the time. “Our beautiful daughter went to heaven Sunday October 26th. There are no words to describe the pain we’re going through but we hold her in our hearts and cherish every second we had with her.”

“THE BEST DAY OF OUR LIVES!” Alex wrote via Instagram alongside photos from the wedding. “We couldn’t have planned for a better day it was everything we dreamed of and more. Very thankful for everyone who traveled and made time to celebrate us! LOVE YA’LL -The Vesias”
Kayla has built a strong social media following with more than 80,000 followers on TikTok and 42,000 on Instagram. Her content revolves around her role as an MLB WAG, taking fans through her days at the ballpark and, more recently, postgame celebrations as the Dodgers move forward in the postseason.
Kayla’s TikTok channel is littered with footage from events with other Dodgers spouses, including fundraisers that the group puts on together.
When the Dodgers announced Alex would be away from the team at the start of the World Series, Chelsea Freeman, wife of first baseman Freddie Freeman, took to Instagram to offer her support.
“Please keep the Vesias in your prayers,” she wrote via her Instagram story.

…..CSOs push for full Probe into panga violence networks
LILONGWE-(MaraviPost)-The country’s Civil society organizations and human rights activists have renewed calls for a comprehensive investigation into the networks behind Malawi’s past political violence, insisting that the country cannot claim progress while those suspected of financing and coordinating panga-wielding gangs remain untouched.
The organizations, led by HRCC Chairperson Robert Mkwezalamba and FND Coordinator Fryson Chodzi, told the news conference in the capital Lilongwe on Friday that uauthorities must to go beyond prosecuting the foot soldiers and begin examining the powerful figures who allegedly orchestrated and protected the violence.
The CSOs argue that recent arrests of suspected zikwanje members represent only the first step toward meaningful justice.
According to them, Malawi’s darkest period of politically motivated intimidation was too organized, too well funded and too widespread to have been executed by youths acting independently.
They insist that the real architects of the violence must be identified, interrogated and made accountable, if the country is to break the entrenched culture of political terror.
Their renewed demand follows persistent allegations linking certain political operatives, including Annabel, to the coordination or sponsorship of panga-carrying groups.
While no court has yet established her involvement, the CSOs believe that her name’s frequent appearance in community reports and security briefings warrants a formal investigation.
They emphasized that their intention is not to prejudge anyone but to ensure that every allegation is handled transparently and in accordance with the law.
The rights groups further a stressed that Malawi must reject selective justice.
The grouping however warned that focusing solely on the young men who physically carried out the attacks, while ignoring the individuals who allegedly mobilized, funded or shielded them, risks reinforcing the same impunity that has fueled political violence for decades.
The CSOs further noted that many of the violent incidents witnessed before and after the 2025 elections showed patterns of coordination indicating substantial logistical support and protection from influential actors.
The rights groups also highlighted concerns about possible foreign involvement in the supply of weapons and logistical assistance to these groups, describing this dimension as a direct threat to national sovereignty.
They urged government agencies to follow all credible leads, fortify intelligence systems and ensure that no foreign national or local collaborator escapes accountability where evidence exists.
Mkwezalamba and Chodzi underscored that Malawi has reached a defining moment in its democratic journey.
The groupings said the country must confront the full truth about how political violence was financed and sustained and must ensure that all suspects including those with political connections are subjected to the same legal scrutiny as ordinary citizens.
Ending political violence, they argued, requires the political will to pursue justice not only against the perpetrators seen in courtrooms but also against those who operated behind the scenes.
They warned that without a deliberate effort to dismantle the networks that armed and protected zikwanje gangs, Malawi risks repeating the same cycle of intimidation and fear in future elections.
The activists concluded by reminding authorities that justice must travel upward, not just sideways and that the credibility of the justice system will be judged by its willingness to investigate all individuals named in connection with political terror including Annabel.
