Enanu mumadana ndi ma Lecturer chifukwa you dont know what it takes to become an academic. You think every Jim and Jack with a degree, whether Masters or PhD can become one. Kulikonse muzapite padziko lapansi, University lecturers are highly paid and respected people in a society. Its just a pity kuti Government controls our public University functioning to the extent that our Lecturers are still miserably paid with pathetic conditions of service. Kumangothawila kuti Malawi ndi dziko losauka sikungatukule maphunziro chifukwa University education ndi yodula basi. Ndalama koma kumangokhalira kuba Cashgate zoona moopanda manyazi kumati dziko lilibe ndalama?? If… Read more »

what about student’s monthly allowance? How does the council expect a student to survive on a K1000.00 per day coz they give us K30,000.00 per month. Can anyone tell me if u can get a standard lunch or supper with only k400 and a breakfast with K200.00. please dont take as for a ride we are complaining about real issue here!

Our tertiary education will always be paralysed if the authorities do not solve issues with sober minds

NYASATIMES at it again. Telling readers half truths. UNima Lecturers never went on strike. It was the support staff who were striking. I am convinced nyasatimes is angry that government has resolved the issue to pay these people the highest salary increase in the history of unima. Bravo DPP government.

It’s a goddam pity when a few greedy individuals, these university lecturers who are really glorified teachers, should jeopardize the education of young Malawians. Holding them ransom, as it were. Why should it take eight plus years to graduate with an engineering degree, instead of the intended five? Meanwhile, that elite campus, Chancellor College, is slowly but surely going to the dogs. Most of the teachers there now are underachievers; only looking forward to payday.
Maybe the government should start afresh. By mandating a new university constitution. And maybe making all non-tenured positions redundant; and hiring anew!

True that, becouse, some people, are, actually, misleading malawians by actually misguiding malawians, or, miscalculating, misbehaving , or, and, misinforming Malawians that, in Malawi, we have, good leadership, whilst we dont have. Becouse, this issue, could have been, solved, settled,
ended, or, and, bowed down to the Lectures demand, than, taking such along period of time. This actually shows, arrogance, misbehaving, failling to accept the truth, or, and, igonorancy. Hence, its high time, for malawians, to take, grab, accept, or, and, realising very late, what is actually needed. Hence, this, should save as alesson. Amen
