PLEASE MR PRESIDENT FIRE FINANCE MINISTER NOW
Kanthu uko, it is you who is dumb. You mean to say GDP cannot be cooked up? What you should know is that government is so powerful that it can do anything. It can print money. Do you know that? It can use services and goods and not pay them. Do you know that government is owing the private sector over K150 billion.

As a nation, we need to build structures that ensures total transparency and accountability from… Read more »

You are small minded, you do not think for yourself. Anything that is in a news paper is not always true. But with your small mind as shown in your language, you can not think beyond,”Zili munyuzitu ndizoona”
A single person manipulating GDP? only a fool can believe that.
Chitsiru chindere. Minister wopusa kwambiri. Too nepotistic idiot.

This reads like a Nigerian movie. Too many twists and unrelated connevtions that show the uthor doesn’t know what he is talking about
