Can you believe that up to now teachers are not paid their October salaries? How do they expect them to survive? Ndiye ena oduka mitu akufuna 150% and motor vehicle loans? What for? No wonder these people scramble for these positions to get rich at the poor man’s expense? What have these councilors done to deserve this? Ndalamazo ngati zilipo mupatse aphunzitsi omwe akugwira ntchito yotamandika ngakhale sayamikidwa but know that for anyone to hold any office, s/he has to thank a teacher. Ntchito yopanda qualification imeneyo yomwe akufunira ndalama zonsezo? Tulani pansi u councillor’wo ena apitirize.

It is not appropriate for councillors to demand such an increase in perks or honorarium as you choose to call it of which I disagree calling it because a councillor is not a volunteer as many think and believe a councillor is a public official who serves as an MP does. A volunteer is not chosen on through a ballot box or paper,who ever is chosen through a ballot box such as a president,an MP or councillor can or should not be deemed as a volunteer because these people do invest in campaigning for their offices they put in alot… Read more »

When you have people who take up positions just for the money and have no concept of the economic status of their country this is what happens. Please remind these people it’s an honorarium and not a salary. Let the look up the word and get understanding. How do you ask for an increase on any job when you have just been hired???? Sick!!!!

I am very suprised as to why all councillors are not paying income tax to the Govt in the holy name of volunteers and that they receive honoralium. Does a volunteer get a fixed monthly whooping payment of MK80,000 from Govt coffers? While people at ILLOVO and other companies of similar nature get wages every fortnight and yet they honour their income tax demands by the Govt. Is Hon Goodall Gondwe serious enough on this arrangement? But why Govt has introduced corporate taxes of K1,700 (K700 to Maneb + K1000 for photos) on Primary School Candidates who will sit for… Read more »

Now, doubters of late Ngwazi Bingu, doubt him no more. The man had foresight; and he stalled on district councillorships only after sound advice from economists and planners. Then came JB; that clueless accidental president. She set in motion revival of these positions. I don’t know who she was appeasing. But some suspect her lack of knowledge on these type of issues, and the fact that she never understood any concrete advice; and she might as well have just flipped a coin! I hope APM and the new DPP government will just extinguish these positions, so that they are non-existent… Read more »
