All this is because of cashgate. Government needs to be ambitious in the following ways if we are are to develop:

1. Set itself a target for a zero illiteracy rate by 2030.
2. Set itself to quadruple the currents intake at higher education qualifications.
3. Eliminate quota based selection replacing it with meritoriousness. But ensure that all secondary schools in Lowe shire, Karonga, Nkhatabay Salina and other low lying areas are air-conditioned to provide good learning and teaching environment.

This can only happen if cashgate is history by arresting corrupt officials immediately.

You delay, development stalls!
