Mr so called president, watch yourself closely, or else cardiac arrest will be around the corner. History should be a good teacher to you regarding wat happened to your bro; he used to adamantly talk the way you have begun to, but what was his end result? After all, your buddy looked healthier than the way you are.

He said the current bill has inconsistencies which you don’t find? You have failed to engage with him on many important matters with him widening the gap between you and him. Your ultimatums with your donor masters that dance your tune ignoring to liaise with the government are unrealistic; demanding the bill to be passed before 31 December, 2015 has become unrealistic. The next parliament sitting is in 2016 but you can’t be patient. Do you think even if it was another President would sink too low to bootlick you for your selfish demands? I for one would not. It… Read more »

Bwana Sapitwa, APM is boxing himself into a corner. Has he forgotten that just two weeks ago he was begging donors to bail him out? With a deteriorating economy which he has clearly failed to manage on his own, is there any sense in insulting the donors he badly needs? The real loser will be known soon: It is only a very foolish person who makes threats when he has nothing to back up those threats. The President of the poorest nation on earth has to know his place… APM and DPP are not known for scrutinising bills for the… Read more »

It’s so sad to note that the so called president has grown wings and can speak rudely to his employers. It is very unfortunate that in the twentyth century and a democratic country still more we can have such mean leaders, leaders who are disrespectful to those that put them there. ATI bill is an important element in any democracy as it affords the citizenry an opportunity to know how accountable and transparent their government is. And the DPP government promised the nation during campaign that they will make sure that they will pass it into law once voted into… Read more »

Malawi has never had a president so heartless like this one! The foolish part is with some Malawians who have prioritized region and party inclinations over the livelihood of the ordinary citizen. It is a shame and rebelling spirit by many that considers life of the poor masses a thing not to worry by appeasing a president who never had a heart for Malawi if his brother wasn’t a president at first!! Shame on DPP and shame on people who can’t stand out to this guy like these Himan Rights Organizations have done. If it is in your power to… Read more »

You say that the president is showing dictatorial powers by not abiding to your ultimatums sure? Timothy, are you not dictating as well by wanting that the president should abide to your ultimatums every time? Give this elected president time for once at least! Am always filled with anger each time I see your name on this blog dude. Eeeeiiiii.

Yes we all want the ATI bill passed but we shouldn’t mislead people that once passed then every bit of information will be accessible and in public domain. Highly sensitive and classified information such as security or national intelligence etc will still be inaccessible to every Jill and jack. Even in the USA or uk not all information is released to the public. So we should know that some information cannot be released immediately and can even take years after it has been declassified that it becomes accessible to the public, especially security information. I think people need to be… Read more »

A Mtambo ndi amzanu che Trapence,

We very much know that you always make all this noise a means of finding bread for your wife and children.

We do not have a problem with that. But the problem comes whenever you want everyone/ all of us to sympathize with you. Eversince you started making your noise, do you remember any time that any single Malawian benefitted from your efforts ? Why sir do you want to fool and waste our precious time with petty issues ? To hell my brother !!!!!!!!!!!!!! Ifenso we have our means of surviving.
