Though Mr Mungomo promised at the beginning of his articles about Kamuzu not to make any judgements but to leave the readership make their own judgements as to whether Dr Banda was a despot or a democrat, it is not difficult to tell what he wants readers to think of Kamuzu. See, Mr Mungomo has presented only one letter of praise leaving several where Chipembere regretted Dr Banda dictatorial behaviour. This letter including that of Kanyama were written before they really got to know the real Kamuzu. Read “Chipembere: Missing Years”.

Our forefathers of Chipembere agegroup suffered a lot from Kamuzu as the president of Malawi. Indeed Kamuzu was being treated as a lion, a biggest lion of the world for that matter.

Then finally Mr. Chipembere now is concluding his letter as I am Your affectionate son but also a servant.

Please write a book Mr Mungomo those born from 1990s dont know about our first and please open our eyes on the cabinet crisis and why Kamuzu became to be feared so much and not loved who and what made him to be demonised although born in the mid 1970s my research on the matter has never got me a clear picture from old timers.

Mr Mungomo, I salute you. Malawians need to know this. We were told that Kamuzu was such an egotistical maniac who wanted to be praised lest people ended up as food for crocodiles. What you are bringing out is beginning to open our eyes why Kamuzu became the man he was. These were for sure leaders who cannot be compared to the madeya we have today. Please …more fire, we need to know the truth about our heroes. And by the way, please come back to Malawi and help to rebuild the Malawi Congress Party which has been reduced to… Read more »

You cannot keep a good man down no matter how hard you may try. The heroes of our motherland are and will remain part of our history. Our perceptions of what each one contributed or did not contribute are varied and definitely subjective …. thus those are never going to converge. What is not disputable is that there were politicians who played a role in the genesis of our country. May their souls rest in peace.
