CONGRESS OF NYIKA PEOPLE

Mzati Nkolokosa has been rewarded for inciting ethnic violence against the people of Nyika. This shows how tribalistic the regime of Peter Hitler Mutharika is. People of Nyika you must wake up and fight for total separation from this Mulhako dominated tribalistic government. For how long you shall put up with this garbage of being the third class in your on Nyikaland. It is time to wage the armed struggle until our beloved Nyika is free from our oppressor. Fight daughters and boys of Nyikaland to liberate your beloved country. Alluta continuaaaaaa until Nyika is free from our oppressors.

If the government is talking about reforms and yet performs poorly in recruitment of suitable people, then the reforms will not change anything for the better. I cry for my beloved country because we move in circles and not forward because politicians simply come up with ideas. I remember Dr. Bakili Muluzi came up Vision 2020. Is it still working? We are about to reach 2020 in 5 years time. We need people like Hon Chakwera who can take national agenda, not personal gratification, as a priority to develop this country.

At least now Nyasa Times reporters know how to report. In the past, they used to write ‘fired’ when someone is re-deployed or re-allocated.

Nyasi zenizeni za pa Mulhako Broadcasting coorporation .The Minister of information and the PS are sending their relatives to start working at MBC which turned to be more like their Estate.No interviews,shame.Highest qualification JCE and MSCE but on higher positions.Opposition MP’s speak for the marginalised staff.Panunkha kwambiri pa MBC.Most of the people. stopped some months ago to listen and watch MBC.Its worse than the time of MCP.

Malawians are known for patience but these re-deployments are a bore, mess and retardation of progress. This is really disturbing and discouraging to the “would have been” candidates. Zotsangalatsana izi zithe. Wadutsamo, wadutsa basi!
