i dont really agree with the article. He is failing to tell us the source of the problem..it was the responsibility of the government to clarify on what is happening to our president..it wasnt our responsility to call them and ask..but they are paid to give us credible information..this gap was the cause of rumour make up..not that we are lot

Who art thou to censure the populace in such manner? Have you read the Economist’s article on this issue? Bottom line is: The dude invited this on himself. As you point out, this could have easily been averted altogether. But typical of our leaders, they thrive on opaqueness. As despicable as the rumours might be, don’t laud executive arrogance by calling out citizens. Most Malawians are well meaning people working hard to get by. Rumors express the collective psyche and popular sentiment. This virulence evidently reifies the the underlying socio-politico context. Rather than deflecting guilt on the citizenry, advise the… Read more »

Very true, A Malawi timakana chilungamo. We are spending useful time on silly whatsapping and waste a lot of the little struggled money on foolish roumour mongering and silly whatsapp chats. Make a cost analysis of time wasted and money wasted then later complain of poverty. Poor Malawian apa mukukana making such self analysis and pretend as if its a justified expense. its not. Many people today spend a lot of their time behind a cvomputer in office as if they are working when they are just on facebook is that productivity? Time to change thats why Trump says Africans… Read more »

This is the first critical article Nyasa Times has published that makes a lot of sense. Malawians are amazing people. They spend a lot of resources on gossip, bringing each other down, rumour mongering rather than spend the same time to think of solutions to their problems. For example, lately, we have complained incessantly about ESCOM. Why not just some small business and buy solar so that your bills are small and little by little ESCOM becomes irrelevant to your life. For a fact, government is irrelevant to your livelihood worse still politicians in the name of politicians. They are… Read more »

When somebody is pronounced dead before he dies, it smells bad omen, Michael Yekha was pronounced dead and he died sooner or later, Kachamba was pronounce dead and he sang anthu abodza akuti Kachamba wafa and he died soon after. So circulating that the president has died is tantamount to coup de tat and the origin should be investigated and be hanged for treason

First the president is elected to lead the Nation, to solve our problems. It is the job he took on his free will. He was not forced. He had to campaign for it and he knew exactly what that job entailed. He is given all the freebies to ensure that his citizens are living a better life. He is given the powers to appoint the right people in the right positions. You can’t solve problems by putting wrong people in wrong places as the situation is right now. These people are only after their survival. He has himself to blame… Read more »

Charlie, did these dunderheads require you to tell them the obvious? They want us to be doing their work when they are also eating our taxes? When they are making the situation tougher and togher for us everyday? We pay so much tax but our kids are not in college. What really went into the minds of those few naughty Malawians to put in these fakes for leaders? My Malawi!!

“Why have suddenly Malawians become so heartless so as to wish each other dead. Yet day in and day out you profess to be a God fearing nation”.

my brother the death of APM is the only immediate solution to the mess we are in now, are you a Malawian or an alien? I bet this guy is not coming back alive, this delaying strategy is just for protocol as u know a president’s death is not just communicated to people as the death of a rat
