Leaders for the last week Friday 15th May demonstrations against government decision to sale Malawi Savings Bank (MSB), says they will soon seek another alternative of halting the ongoing sale process.
Billy Mayaya a human rights activist says members of Civil Society Organisations together with some Members of Parliament are planning to obtain an injunction restraining government from proceeding with sale of MSB until Malawians understands what is happening on the matter.
He said the injunction will help to stop government from continuing with selling plans and their injunction shall add to last week stay order which others took in Blantyre.
Mayaya has further warned that if all avenues fail to stop government from continuing with the process of selling the bank, people will continue with vigils and demonstrations across the country.
Last Friday, Mayaya led Concerned Malawians to the National Assembly with petition asking legislature to stop government from continuing with MSB sale. However, parliament has recently failed to stop government on the matter through motion passed in February which restrain the sale of MSB pending Budget and Finance Committee to scrutinize the matter and make recommendations.
But, Mayaya says the petition to the National Assembly was a first step in demanding transparency and accountability.
