Merlyn Yolamu

Merlyn Yolamu is the Inspector General of Police in Malawi, a position that places her at the forefront of law enforcement in the country. Recently, she has been criticized by the National Anti-Corruption Alliance (NACA) for allegedly failing to protect civil rights and turning a blind eye to political violence, particularly in the lead-up to the 2025 elections. Her leadership is under scrutiny as the NACA demands accountability and reform within Malawi's law enforcement agencies.
