Blackout in Parliament? In the middle of deliberations? Bravo ESCOM! I like this! Now our lawmakers know what it is like to have power outage when one is working. The only difference is that the august house is not a profit-making entity, so they can relax because there is no loss of profit. But if the honorable MPs reacted the way it is reported here, then what do they expect to be the reaction from the business community when production stops? Madam Deputy Speaker, I move that you do something about this, not now but yesterday.

When Parliament faces power failure, the Speaker should order that deliberations take place on a non-working day like Saturday. This is so because Parliamentarians do not return the allowances they pocket and they should realise that they are working. If they don’t do this they are stealing our money. The excuse that it was not their fault should not be entertained. Parliament should always have plans B and C. so that the meeting doesn’t get disrupted in totality.

Very embarrassing for our party DPP. But what can we do now? We have stolen enough from these parastatals. Yes we have fat bank accounts; yes we have nice bungalows and one storey houses and flats built within the year; yes we have all the power we sought in the past. We are welding too much power that we are now deaf and arrogant. We are now using our tribal lomwe tool to the fullest. But it’s all vanity under the sun. Real vanity. Dark nights have become our companion together with the very Malawians, including the Lomwes we thought… Read more »
