If you want people to hate corruption revalue our Kwacha.All bad things in public sector institutions happens, because everyone wants more money, for things which are too expensive and in a situation where to find money is difficult.

Time for campaign is over pilizi. Don’t be talk talk like headless chickens
plaquenil generic name
In fact I saw it from the beginning that this terrorists was behaving more like a free radical. This is the most silly decision where a whole president create a ministry just to appease the terrorist without any guiding TOR. It’s like building a house when you don’t have a plot. It is like you haven’t built a house at all.
Both the ministry and the minister are redundant. This is sheer waste of tax payer’s money
Too much talk for NOTHING just wasting money.
Way to go! Responsible citizenry will be key to building a new Malawi.
