Grace Malera

Grace Tikambenji Malera (born 8 May 1978) is a Malawian lawyer who became the Ombudsman in Malawi in 2021.

[2] In 2002 she was called to the bar[2] and she went to work for the Anti-Corruption Bureau (ACB) as a prosecution officer.

[1] On 2022 the President sacked his Minister of Agriculture and his deputy over the loss of K750 million from the Affordable Inputs Programme which was intended to subsidise subsistance farming.

Malera's report in 2024 recommended prosecution of public officials involved in the fraudulent contract made with Bakaart Foods Limited.

[5] The interview process had to be restarted after it was discovered by Malera and her Office of the Ombudsman that two people on the ACB's shortlist (including Chiloma), failed to meet the criteria required for the position.
