Malawi Government has said that it will consider calling for a referendum to give a chance to Malawians to decide...
Kodi inu maNortherners, mukapasidwa dziko lanu loyima palokha, mudzakwanitsa kulemba ntchito amene adzachotsedwa ntchito ku mwera ndi chigawo cha pakati? Nanga ana anu amene ali ku mauniversity,makoleji ndi sukulu zosiyana-siyana mudzawapatsa malo ophunzilirako?
Muganize mofatsa tsiku la referendum lisanafike.
Federal system of governing in this country already exist. Ask our churches i.e. CCAP, Catholic, Seventh Day etc. Mukandifusa ineyo i will tell you that this country requires development. Development everywhere. The question should be how do we achieve that? Federal system if it is based on regionalism then it is a wrong track. Why? Because later on it will become districtism, then areasim, therafter villageism etc. However, we Malawians are very intelligent people. The problem here is development across the country. Let us find a lasting solution to the existing problem of development across the country.
You wouldn’t be talking now if it wasn’t for someone talking about multiparty democracy back in the days. Now someone is talking federal system and you are saying they only want recognition ? Think first before you open your mouth and show everyone that you are incapable of using your brain !! I rest my case …..
Inya we have never been recognised as true Malawians bu since 1912 we have shaped and contributed to the Malawi/Nyasaland history polically and economically. If no one will recognise us Northerners then we will recognise ourselves. If someone is afraid of seccesion or federalism then they must start treating northerners as true Malawians NOW!!
some of you the so called lomwe’s whether chewa’s I suggest you are sick minded and that you are talking” commenting” no sense here because your fore fathers are the creators of this so called nepotism. This thing of nepotisim started long time back only that this time mwatha mantha and that you are doing it plainly. And winawe you saying we the Northerners should go back to our homes kumathengere, watch your big mouth bady waiwala kwanu kuja you still using those round houses yet kumatukwana apa mbuzi ya munthu iwe, my last word is that what goes around… Read more »
I think it is typical for people to see other people’s weakness than their own. Do you remember Chakufwa China’s first executive committee of AFORD when it became a party? Was it not pure nepotism? In fact many people then knew who Chihana was but his tribalistic attitudes made him lose the election. So do a self reflection and you will see why people have issues with the people from the north. Again it is plain simple. How many tribes are in Malawi? There are Senas, Mang’anjas, Lomwes, Yaos, Ngonis, Chewas from the central and Southern regions of Malawi.. Why… Read more »
#INU…..then let northerners become independent coz ur just crying here as if northerners are still clinging to u assholes!!!
Atumbuka mukubowa zedi. kazipitani ku thengere kwanuko. wakuletsani ndaniyo????
Let them go and we stay right here in Bangalala !!!
I had hoped this would be the perfect forum to have this discussion but I see it is wasted on some of these bozos making the stupid comments here. I will still say my piece. I agree everybody seeks recognition ( I prefer the concept of validation) from their society or others that they look up to. Look at our political history. We have glorified John Chilembwe, Kamuzu Banda etc, which is rightly so, but they did not do it alone. We rarely recognize those foot soldiers from all over the country, and Nkhatabay is particularly overrepresented. The Kanyama Chiumes,… Read more »
this is what this forum is here for well said mr some of these people am nt sure why they open their big mouth.they even dont knw the meaning of distributing the cake of the nation equally it is time justice need to be served
The way to go is by ‘federal system ‘ of government. MCP backs it and if the north backs it, the referendum will carry the day. What has triggered this debate? Ignoble leadership of Bingu.
WHEN LATE CHAKUFWA SIMBI YAMOTO CHIHANA CALLED MCP THE PARTY OF DEATH AND DARKNESS WAY BACK IN MARCH 1992, SOME SLEEPY AND SHALLOW MINDED PEOPLE ALSO THOUGHT LIKE THE WRITER OF THIS ARTICLE THAT CHIHANA JUST WANTED COVERAGE BY BBC AND WORLD RECOGNITION.YEARS LATER CHIHANA’S CALL LED TO THE ROMAN CATHOLIC FAMOUS PASTORAL LETTER OF ” LIVING OUR FAITH” THEN REFERENDUM THEN THE MULTI PARTISM AND THE MUTHALIKA POLITICAL DYNASTY OF TODAY.BELIEVE THIS FIGHT WILL RESULT INTO SOMETHING POSITIVE AT THE END OF IT.
Yeah, politics did change, but then what has the north gained? I remember during the transition to multi-party politics, people romanticised the process just as now. Malawians want to change things without deeply thinking about how that change should serve them. We can do a lot better by changing how we value government property, how as individual citizens contribute to our country and the values that we embrace. In our current status, not much will change even if we introduce federalism. It will just be a change of actors but the same scene. For sure now, multiparty has failed to… Read more »
Look at the bigger picture guys. Its first about North getting something than the nothing its having or has had in the past. Recognition can not be avoided here and its not a primary motive.
