Mota Engil is a multinational. Their works are mostly superb if the construction contract specifies so. In Zambia right from Mwami (Malawi/Zambia border post) through Chipata to Lusaka they have constructed super highway. I quizzed one of the Engineers on site to know why they same company constructs substandard roads without adequate kerbs, poor drainage system and leave gaping holes where they haul gravel sand which are environmentary hazardous . The engineer said ” We do the job according to what is specified in the contruct. What you see is what is in the contract here in Zambia” In this… Read more »
Smoke screen plus cosmetic intelligence nothing new from the VP himself. We have career corrupt politicians in the current administration masquerading to be sound yet lose morals rule their enterprise. Malawians are getting a raw deal where the same corrupt politicians unashamedly feasting the taxpayers money!!!!!
I don’t think there is any department that is bothered to inspect these projects. Almost all road projects have no drainage system or poorly constructed drains. One example is the substandard roads being constructed on BT city. like all other Malawian roads ziyamba kudyeka mbali cz of plrains, parking and no pavement and drainage system. Chonsecho you guys go outside the country and see how roads are constructed.. Shame to this poor mind of thinking from president,VP,mimisters.. cz you open these roads and clap hands to mediocrity like you did not spend 50yrs in US Peter Mutharika. if I were… Read more »
The best is to get Mota Engil out of country. It’s a company of Muntharika. It milks poor Malawians tax money. It gets all contracts which is paid by the government. Some percentage of the money go to bank account of Muntharika now APM. How can a poor Portuguese company be the only company to get contracts? It is the same company which built Ndata and Musolium of Bingu and his wife. These Muntharikas has really milked Malawians.
Very tough speaking Mr Veep but you disappoint a little bit. Why would you foam this much? Is it because the construction industry couldn’t beat you politicians but, clevery joined and are now beating you at your own game? Give us a break! You want us to believe that you and your boss don’t believe the numerous revelations about corruption in very high places in your government? What will it take for you to, just confront, the chief government mafia on these allegations? So you are too scared of him therefore you resort to venting your anger and frustrations at… Read more »
VP Saulosi Chilima is afraid of the thieves in construction industry. First of all he waited for this conference to say whatever threats and he will until next conference. This is how a president think in Malawi.
Isn’t it just today that we heard Mota Engil is bankrolling Chaponda’s campaign? Most construction companies are very corrupt. However we cannot entirely put the blame on them. You see construction contracts runs into billions of Kwachas. To be awarded these contracts one has to do a little bit of Palm oiling. We know where the rot is. It is with the leadership. The get rich quick schemes of our leaders is to blame. So Mr Veep, don’t beat about the bush. You know the culprits. The late Bingu is one of those who benefited from these contracts without regard… Read more »
