It’s sad we are hearing nothing from the govt. and the department of disaster and…..The rains that have fallen in Mzuzu were extraordinarily high that even some good houses in high lands have been affected . Let’s help the affected people without prejudice. A lot of people who are talking rubbish and insults have nothing to offer in terms of assistance even in prayers. Please! Please! Mine is an appeal let’s help out these people with whatever little we have. The situation is very pathetic in some areas.

Funny enough that when government and other NGOs were appealing to people from chikwawa and Nsanje to move, others were up in arms calling them fools and they were named different kinds of words like,, they want to be receiving free things every year and it was as if the problem was for the Lower shire people only. This is a wake up call for all of us and let us stop taking other peoples’ problems lightly. Tomorrow, it will be you in Mzuzu, then Karonga, before it goes to other areas.

The reporter seems is living in heaven. If he was in Mzuzu He could not have written this negative story. MCC officilas were all over the townships visiting the disaster striken areas. For your own information, The Mayor, Deputy Mayor, CEO and four councillors visited Masasa to appreciate the situation. They even attended burial ceremony of three family members. The saturday meeting he is talking about is to review friday’s actions and thereafter distribute a few relief items that were already solicited in anticipation of the disaster.

The City council has a big problem. Four years ago geological survey and Germany experts came to Mzuzu and mapped the city’s disaster risky areas but up to now we don’t know where the report is. It is rumoured the report and maps were submitted to City assembly with recommendations but no implementation has been made. Malipoti kungokhalira mmaofesi mapeto ake ndi zimenezo. No wonder a city mulibe chonena.

People in Mzuzu build houses in natural waterways. This is no surprise
at all. They should vacate those places and buy land in areas not classified as disaster prone. Mungoti Boma this Boma that. Ngati month ukumanga nyumba yako pa njira ya madzi, ukufuna bomb litani????????? Vacate the area.

It’s unfortunate that nothing has been done so far despite cries from people concerning the heavy continuos rains in the northern region. Now we have lost some lives. They were sons, daughters and mothers to someone.
