I intend to seek the assistance of Greenpeace so that this “lake-polluting” project does not see the light of day. Watch the space!

My fellow Malawians,let us all stand up against this exploitation. We don’t have to allow these greedy leaders to fool us again. Water is life and a source of livelihood to some.
