Much as I appreciate that federation is working well in other countries, I am not comfortable with the way it was introduced here. To wait until you are whipped in an election then you start talking about secession or federation is utter nonsense. This subject was supposed to be introduced in parties manifestos, then it would be the subject during the campaign. Presidential candidates would debate it. I like Prof. Chisi the way he introduced Feudalism not introducing the system because wakwela ya matayala akuphwa ai. If they won the elections would they introduce the system? Why did they not… Read more »

Some misguided people and Chief’s Chikulamayembe and Kyungu have been reacting negatively on the calls for federalism in Malawi. The question I have for them is Has federalism not taken root already? Think about the issue of DPP having a working alliance with UDF both inside and outside Parliament? If this is not a glimpse of the beginning of federalism then I need to be schooled.

We can call this the federation of DPP and UDF. Sounds good eeh kkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk.

The system we have at the moment is nowhere near a unitary one. We are already in a federal system except that this is an exploitive one where the southern state wants to lord over the central and northern region. D.p. p. And it’s lhomwes want to dominate and be masters of the rest of the tribes in Malawi.
A proper federalism will ensure equal and transparent sharing of resources.

Atumbuka simumamva. The Dowa people together with the whole central region and probably in unison with the southern region want the SECESSION OF THE NORTH and not that stupid federalism. Mukutikakamira chani kodi? Be strongly informed that many Malawians want secession of the north and not federalism. Lets go to polls for SECESSSION OF THE NORTH/Federalism and will be shocked that 85% and above will vote for secession of the north. So stop saying Malawians want federalism. How did you know this? Do you really mean you asked all Malawians and this is what they told you? Stop lying here.… Read more »

Nyasa #28 you dont really think. If you say Malawians dont want federalism but secesssion of the North how do you know that? How do you mean 85% of Malawians want secession of the North and federalism when MCP is already advocating for the central Region to be federal state? Now tell me, Do you mean MC,P that dominates the Central region plus the North make up 15% 0f Malawians wanting federalism and 85% is the South that wnt secession of the North? You are a fool. What you need to know is that no movement in Malawi that was… Read more »

MCP is not central region. If I were you I would have differentiated presidential and parliamentary elections from federalism/secession of the north. Central region cannot support MCP on federalism. Let’s bet on this one.

Why federalism after 50 years of independence? Inu akawalala unitary government yayipa lero? mmm yoiur greedy ideas will not work. Tribalism and regionalism is the cause of this stupid idea of federalism. Inu ogalu siyani maganizo autsiru.
