Tangowasiyani adzingowaphabe. Kukanakhale kuno ku Africa bwenzi akumati “genocide”, koma kwaoko akuti “black lives matter”. No matter whether black lives matter or not, by American standards a black person is a slave and must not eat from the same plate with a white person who is considered superior or king.

It is pathetically hypochondriac that the America’s biggest black caucus honours President Peter Muthalika for destroying our mother Malawi.i wonder whether these brothers had done their homework properly hence,this misguided rhetorics.Do these American African brothers know that millions of Malawians are struggling to feed their families while Muthalika and his cronies fill their foreign Bank Accounts with millions of dollars stollen from government coffers,most recently,several patients died in surgery rooms that had no power,few months ago when people were demanding food from their government due to torturous shortage of food,Muthalika told them to eat grasshoppers and mice,crime in the country… Read more »

Do these jokers carry out serious research before awarding these ‘honours”? And oh, by the way, Atupele Muluzi will join any sitting government in Malawi on any given day. For him its a matter of personal economic survival.

A MCP Simudzatheka and you will not understand it because you will never rule Malawi again. Awards are given sometimes for efforts being made or unique sytle and decisions not eradicating the problem entirely. MCP poverty was not created by Peter Mutharika. Poverty was created by azungu and nursed by the Late Ngwazi. We are just suffering from their greedy structures but you speak as if poverty was created by APM. Musayiwale kuti mu nthawi yanu osauka amalephera kupita ku chipatala, kusukulu, ngakhale kumunda kumangobisala mnyumba chifukwa alibe ndalama ya khadi. and this made Malawians too poor

60 mediocre MPs awarding a mediocre president. Being honored by Akata legislators is about as precious as quenching your thirst with hot air- useless. Those coons haven’t helped create any laws to protect their own people. It’s 2016 and blacks are still treated like second class citizens in the USA and these 60 idiots are partly to blame

Before such honours/dishonours are given appropriate researches must done in country to justify them. Kamuzu, Muluzi, Bingo, Joy and Peter all got awards which had no positive social or economic impact on Malawians. Poverty and corruption are on the rise. Those giving awards must come and see the hell that Malawians are going through because of bad leadership.

In a democracy bad leadership is brought by foolish voters. So APM should be honoured because he is a true reflection of a Malawian. Lazy greedy and careless. eEPuG

Stupid Americans. Does the ruling party in America include members of the opposition in the cabinet? Who doesn’t know that what Mutharika did is a strategy by the DPP to weaken the opposition and such dull Americans are praising this undemocratic move – stupid. Mugabe and Tswangirai were in a government of the so called “national unity”- did their marriage of convenience last? I wish they just kept quite other than say this nonsense. Let it begin with Americans and then they can talk about African issues, otherwise Africa has woken up and will never be fooled by a few… Read more »

The answer is yes…it’s not uncommon for cabinet to have a visible and revered member of opposing party. The reason behind is what differentiates btwn Malawi and America. As a quick note in USA cabinet is not drawn from legislative membership and at no time the opposition is weaken thru such appointments
