If vendors are selling maize at a lower price,its good move only to those who can understand this very well,but to blind f ollowers of some parties they can not understand.Fistly ADMARC is selling the maize without any profit.unless anyone come open and tell me a different price that ADMARC was buying this maize.Everyone in this nation should understand why this scenario ,its not a thing of just pointing fingers at one another.Last YEAR we had maize in our ADMARC ,how many malawians were buying this maize at a lower price? This year the price is high ,yes but ,the… Read more »

When you argue with a fool you make yourself look like one. As the Russian say Nye democracia em proffesional. No need to just be getting political and criticizing to the mass when you are the leader of opposition in parliament. Call for a referendum or something!

Chakwera is not a serious politician if at all he is one. Admarc will be selling the grain at a loss and what the president did was to minimize the loss. The fact that Admarc is selling maize at cost price, it means it is selling at a loss as it will never recover logistic and management costs.

Rubbish why are vendors selling at a cheaper price if what you say is true. Do you mean government was buying at higher price than the vendors. That would have translated into government having more maize than the vendors.

Let critics come on this platform and debate, those be humans, nyima if not manyi, imran sadic and all mind stricken povertised dpp blind supporters who backup each and every nasty step of this evil government. Ana asatana who can’t see that dpp is a walking devil, complete failure, a non directional entity that awards non performers. Go to the rural areas and find out how many can afford to buy maize whose price was dictated by your useless leader, LET MARKET MECHANISMS PLAY ITS OWN ROLE, MALAWI IS A CAPITALIST ECONOMY SO ITS STUPID TO DICTATE PRICES.
