Email a copy of 'Malawians ask President Mutharika to apologise over ‘eat mice and grasshoppers'' to a friend
Citizen Alliance, Eye for Development with support from Malawi Justice Network and State of the Union(SOTU) has urged Government to...
The so called president MUST apologise without delay spinning this won’t work. I too heard this on etv here in SA and my friend (South African) was asking me if the Malawian president is normal upstairs because here in SA no one eats a rat not at all i bet if you can find one. Therefore like someone said and like i have been Saying before, the so called President who is not a presidential material should be very careful when opening his mouth in front of media cameras for the sake of our country’s reputation. What an inept and… Read more »
If it is true that the Malawi’s president said people should eat mice and grasshoppers, it means he looks down on Malawians, as inferior beings. Does he eat mice and grasshoppers himself? This is unbelievable, but knowing how docile Malawians are, they will continue to sing and clap for the man who doesn’t even care about them. His remarks imply Malawians are very desperate salvages and can eat anything, except him. Amazing
Kaziulika or whatever, is peter nutrionist? those words should be uttered by Mrs Mary Shaba NOT the president. president must give hope to the people osati kujoka pa nkhani yanjala.
Malawians are a laughing stock. Atcheya used to call women including Joyce Banda D7s, was that an issue?

Well said.
Ecclesiasticus 23:17
A conversation with a fool is repulsive because he make a joke about serious matters.
His cursing and his swearing make the hair stands on end, when such man argue others stop their ears.
This can not be taken for an innocent joke. This so called joke, is on international news. Other countries have broadcast this on their TV and radio stations. I personally heard about this on radio Botswana. The president needs to be careful what he says in public.This is making Malawi to be a laughing stoke on the international community.
Take it or leave it. The president is not forcing anyone to eat ziwala or mbewa. He only suggested. Mwandibowa kwambiri amene mukulimbana ndi zimenezi. Anaiwala kunena kuti tidzidyanso nsima ya madeya/gaga. Kapena chaka chino chikhala choyamba inuyo kudya zoterezi. Shut up!!
No need for the President to apologise to all Malawians. He can only apologise to Seventh Day Adventist and Moslem leadership through the advisor on religious affairs Apostle Khomviwa. I am from Lilongwe and grew up eating Mice. Grasshoppers and mphalabungu. I don’t feel offended at all. As for jokes; Even Bakili Muluzu made stupid jokes about a small baby who was raped by advising the rapists “to rape the mother” instead. (Mwa mwana mumvamo chiani? Mayi wake anali kuti?). He made similar overboard jokes about HIV kuti azimayi chitani deam as if it was only women spreading HIV. It… Read more »
Mika Kumbire – dude, if you grew up eating mice – good for you. Some of us don’t and will never do, therefore it is indeed offensive to some of us both culturally and morally. However, that is not the point. What people are concerned with is the impression he created. He seems to say that his government does not care to help resolve the hunger issue. That joke was misplaced! Period. Secondly, if Muluzi gaffed about raping babies, it does not make it right for Mutharika to do the same about something equally as serious. If someone says or… Read more »
