Branson Njunga

Branson Njunga is the Human Resources Manager at the Amitofo Care Centre in Malawi, who has been implicated in a wildlife trafficking scandal that exploits vulnerable orphans. Recently arrested for possession of ivory, Njunga allegedly acted as a critical link between the orphanage and Chinese wildlife crime syndicates, coercing former residents into participating in illegal smuggling operations. His actions have drawn significant scrutiny, highlighting the dark undercurrents of exploitation and corruption surrounding the centre, which was originally established to care for orphans and vulnerable children.
