The more I read the more confused I become but the more I crave for more to read.Credits are due to this articulate,intelligent,and well versed author.He has tackled a spectrum of issues,well presented but require a magnified mind to understand.I have enjoyed every phrase more especially the words used to bring a point home.I may not be a fedo fan but have enjoyed reading.Looking forward to more topical issues.

FEDERALISM WOULD ASSIST BUT THE NORTH MAY EVENTUALLY SPLIT INTO DISTRICTS SOME TRIBES PRACTICE A LOT OF TRIBALISM AND NEPOTISM. LOOK AT NED BEST HEADTEACHERS ARE ALWAYS FROM RUMPHI OR ARE THOSE THAT GIVE FAKE SUBSISTENCE TO PIPO AT NED OFFICES. A GRADE J FROM RUMPHI IS SAID TO BE BETTER THAN ANY GRADE FROM OTHER DISTRICTS. PATHETIC.

Federation will not solve anything if we don’t transform our political landscape. We have too much sleepy and incompetent politicians. What they do in parliament nobody knows. Every year, they go to parliament to approve budgets but not asking where are the related plans and where to implement the projects so that each vote is passed in accordance with national priorities. Secondly, they do not start with a reflection and review on how government spent funds during the previous year in line with the plans of that year. All these cries we see now are the fruits of having an… Read more »

The funny thing is how fully awake citizens would wake up very early to go and elect a sleepy and incompetent parliament. But you are right. Federation will not solve the problems as presented by our brothers from the north. It will only legalise the quota system. That is if the regional governments will control education and other social services. Surely the regional government in the centre will not allow students from other regions to suffocate their schools while their own have no places. Remember the Chewa will rather have a half baked graduate than no graduate at all. After… Read more »

Minister of Education, Emmanuel Fabiano, is the main Architect of Bingu’s and Peter’s Quota System. His speech during his last graduation as Vice Chancellor of University of Malawi testifies to this. He said openly that he is for quota system. No wonder he has been rewarded with a ministerial post. But let him know that it is a mission in vein. The north will always find places for its students elsewhere as he ages and rewards laziness. I still don’t understand the justification for this evil quota system. What advantage do students from the north have over those from Cholo?… Read more »

If Fabiano said this, let him know that he personally in his personal choice drew battle lines with the northern region since the was touching the heart of the northerners.. Now that he is a Minister of education, do we expect anything good from him? In turn does he expect us to have anything to do with him?
If only he said this publicly he rejected the north publicly and the consequences are anybody’s guess

Unfortunately clever as you sound, you have just rewarded him with more voice in parliament by electing a dpp mp in the just ended Mzimba north by election. Educated fools talking too much and doing nothing about it. Bolaniso MCHEWA was nyau. Kuzolowera ukapolo nmakampani ndi m boma

Look at the speakers at the well organised debate, they are all from the North, will this change anything at all. regionalism at its best mungowonongapo nthawi yanu apa. because the debate is not inclusive of other regions, does this means only the Northern people are the ones understanding federalism not in other region? please if you want to make this a national issue spread your wings to other regions other wise this is just a TALK SHOW for us to know who is the best educationist.

My brother, ask Bingu, APM or Fabiano which region was targeted by the quota system. The north is suffering; the north must talk; the north must act now. Which region has one of its sec schools filled only by pupils from other regions and not a single pupil from that region? My friend, if you were near me I would spit on your face rightaway. I ask teachers of N/Bay sec school to stop teaching and relocate to other schools immediately. That school will soon be on fire – we are its custodians but not its beneficiary and we now… Read more »

brother, this was not about any region being targeted, its about sharing the little resources equally. the problem with northners is that they are greedy, they want everything that is for malawi to be theirs
