Facts: 1. You are a thief when you are convicted by the competent court 2. Malawi has more than 17 million people but less than 10 thousand demonstrated meaning that the majority did not take part and this can’t be vote of no confidence. 3. Catholic priests in Malawi have children. 4. Many Catholic priests and nuns have died of AIDS related diseases contracting HIV through sex yet we believe they’re not supposed to do sexual intercourse 5. Presidential appointments go to party loyalists who will work according to principles of that party 6. No demos were held after cash… Read more »

Catholic bishops, don’t you know that lawyers defending thieves is DEMOCRACY – the DEMOCRACY you fought for. It seems you are confused about what democracy means. Did you want the thief to be thrown and killed in prison without trial. That’s why we don’t listen to you any more.

Let the priest throw the first stone if he knows that he has not done any sin. Let him prove to the world that what he receives as offerings and Mtulo is not from Katangale. How many children do we have that the priest have fathered in the community? What do he ask to be given when he is conduct a memorial mass or weddings? We can hire the pope to be president. Cardinals to be ministers and priest as MPs still the country will suffer from corruption. Why ? There is a need to change the way we do… Read more »

Don’t be a fool. The commitment and seriousness of a leader make his subjects to revere him and bring about the necessary change needed in a nation. A very good example is found in Tanzania, where Magufuli sasakelera za uchitsiru. That is how serious a leader should be; putting the country first and self behind. The Catholic priest was really right. Our bububu leader cannot bark, let alone bite at the beasts of pray around him. He is an accomplice in the crimes.

WHAT A WASTE OF TIME.

Jesus had 12 apostles. Judas Iscariot betrayed trust and had Jesus betrayed. This does not mean that all apostles were traitors. They continued with the mission of Jesus Christ. If Muhosha priest has betrayed trust, it does not mean that all priests have betrayed trust. Separate indivividual sins from community work. We, as staunch Catholics are behind our beliefs whether you like it or not. The journey continues.

The Civil Society, the clergy, academics and the media, have not adequately understood Malawi’s fundamental problem which politicians have long taken advantage of. We can’t solve Malawi’s current socio-economic and political state if we don’t understand Malawi’s root problem. Early colonialists, missionaries and post-independence politicians have bred a population of uneducated, delinquent children, incapable of independent critical thinking. Malawi’s 80% is in this category, mostly living in the rural areas and generally very poor. That being the case, one only needs to design a message that resonates to this constituency to win their votes and the current politicians know this… Read more »

Well said, I have been thinking this for so long. I understand how our politicians misbehave, but someone in the rural areas doesnt know that he is the boss of the president, ministers, Mps etc.

LEGO, are you sure all ministers are corrupt? Does Callista agree with you? You mean even Callista’s anointed presidential candidate is corrupt? You are not serious LEGO.

I wonder why Malawians we take things for granted. Catholic priest are trying to address the problem that we malawians are facing but we still ignore this. The issue of the killing of allubino was already addressed and in their letter they stressed that they will wait until justice flows like a stream. Do we not admire the economy of our neighbouring countries? Look at how Kagame is performing, using the same strategy Malawi developed. where are we now? Malawi wanga, i cry for this country!!!!!

Whats the difference between electing thieves and the church having pastors who steal kids innocence by molesting kids, Catholic priests having kids out of wedlock? Catholic priest being involved in the albino killings and that not being addressed in the pastoral letter is so hypocritical.
Didn’t Bingu the biggest thief and the one who presided over the K236bn get endorsed by the same Catholic Church. Stay out of politics because you mislead the flock into choosing the thieves. You are the ones who enjoyed the most under Bingu and wined and dined with him at the expense of the poor.

No politician, church or any recognised body in malawi should lie that corruption can be fixed via an elected govt. Corruption is at the community, society level. If that isn’t fixed first, how do you expect to produce leaders? Hypocrites make the loudest noises.

Yes the fight against corruption is for all but surely we need someone to provide leadership and that leadership should create working , non partisan , effective and vbrant systems in place. All these surely require political will. Unfortunately for us the current leadership is very much lacking and wanting . In other words peter mutharika has failed to lead malawi to fight corruption .
