Dausi says PAC has pathological hatred with DPP: ‘Govt without integrity has no right to govern’
Minister of Information and Communications Technologies Nicholas Dausi has hit at the quasi religious grouping and governance watchdog Public Affairs Committee (PAC) for its assessment that Malawi was currently experiencing mediocrity as poverty levels have been deeply entrenched among ordinary Malawians.
Dausi said the statement by PAC at a news conference in Blantyre shows that the governance watchdog has “hidden agenda”, saying its assessment is unusual.
The government spokesman said PAC leadership has “pathological hatred” against the Democratic Progressive Party (DPP) administration led by President Peter Mutharika.
“They don’t see anything good in whatever DPP do and say,” said Dausi.
During the news conference, PAC observed that DPP administration has failed wretchedly to fight corruption in the past three years it has been in power and raised doubts if the ruling party can change before the elections due in 2019.
“After a careful examination on incidents of corruption, we note that the DPP administration has been greatly characterised by corrupt practices, financial indiscipline and selective justice,” PAC chairperson the Very Reverend Felix Chingota said.
“As Malawians seek for the realisation of justice and law enforcement, we note that the DPP administration continues to embark on selective justice in the pursuit of cashgate cases,” he added.
Rev Chingota said all Malawians are equal before the law and must be treated as such.
PAC accused DPP of shielding corrupt fat cats in its rank and file.
“ The snail’s pace approach in bringing to book culprits , and failure to swiftly deal with cashgate matters is a betrayal of justice and raises questions of integrity on the DPP administration.
“We are compelled to state that the DPP administration and its leadership have dismally failed to perform and that there is lack of vision to steer this country into prosperity,” PAC chairperson said.
PAC also accused DPP of running propaganda machinery on social media and mainstream media.
“We hold a strong view that no matter how much money one invests in propaganda groups to suppress the will of the people , justice and truth will always triumph,” it said
PAC said the growing corruption levels and economic malaise that are derailing the transformation of people’s lives show “lack of strong leadership and intention” to develop this country.
“The poor people are becoming poorer as the few are getting richer to the extent that poverty remains a long-term companion to the majority of Malawians. In the current scenario, the assertion that ‘ if a government does not have integrity has no right to govern’ is worth pondering upon lest people are led into saying enough is enough,” PAC said.

Nik has a point. PAC has does not see the big picture Malawi. The nation is stable and peaceful. What can one long for?
PAC says Mutharika has failed; BUT I say Mutharika has failed with distinction.
This country is seriously bleeding and if we continue fairing like this, we will all(except those with fat pockets) be skinned alive by poverty. Dausi is a shameful DPP statue who unknowingly or knowingly tread where even angels fear to step on their feet. Bravo PAC
PAC, you have done a good job. Let those who have ears hear.

Mr. Dausi,is there anything good in whatever DPP does and says? Cash/ Maize/Tractor/Medicine/Embassy /Gates
Trouble with this government is that they view any criticism as an attack instead of taking this as an opportunity to correct things.
Is it any wonder that a recent survey concluded that people trust the president least. This is because of people like you who speak wrongly for him. Please tell him the truth. It hurts, but it is good feedback for him.
loud & clear DPP is poor leadership, they have failed to run the country, only corruption in the parliament nothing good in DPP, IFDPP will run again 2019 Malawi will never developed, look at Private sectors the employees paid k20,000 end of a month more especially g4s is world wide company but as government no any action ON IT , think of k20,000 can you make good budget in a family, think of school fees a son or daughter is at secondary level can you manage to pay school fees with k20,000, CAN YOU MANAGE TO PAY RENTAL , thus why in Malawi we are remaining poor of the poorest people, DPP PRESIDENT IS POOR IN THINKING CAPACITY & MINISTER OF FINANCE THEY DO NOT MAKE GOOD BUDGET IN THE CABINET, NOTE : LOOK AT G4S PLEASE MAKE ARESEARCH OF THE SALARIES THEY PAID TO THEIR EPLOYEES K20,000 RETHINK OF THAT AMOUNT IF YOU CAN MANAGE TO MAKE GOOD BUDGET, BYE ?……………………………………..? –
After the many negative things PAC has pointed out which are a copy and paste of the opposition camps let us wait for the reaction from the people themselves. We should not forget that this is the PAC which hated Bingu and his administration up to the extent of giving him ultimatum. Come 2014 after a fight from outside govt the DPP bounced back to power to the shame of this PAC. This time the same PAC is extremely divided because Chingota and Mulomole want to use it for their own political goals. I know that this press for PAC was a reaction to the fellow clergy who met Mutharika at Chikoko bay in Mangochi. I laugh my lungs up when I READ SOME COMMENTS predicting the fall of DPP in 2019. I challenge these guys to mention a strong challenger to Peter in 2019. Mention the candidate so that we weigh him. The problem is that some opposition parties are banking their hope on the runaway pastor who has no any indication that he can make it in 2019. Chakwera is just too dwarf in political fights. Where else will he get the votes if he is failing to pull the muscle in his own home yard? APM has no challenger in 2019, let us accept it please.
Nick akutokota chifukwa ali pamsana pa njomvu…………………………………… akuona ngati anthu onse akulanhulawa akunama!!

DEAR ATUPELE
WHERE ARE YOU ….?
WHAT IS YOUR VISION TOWARDS PEOPLE OF
MALAWI ? MY/OUR EXPECTATIONS SERIOUSLY
WERE /ARE VERY VERY HIGH FROM YOU
BUT SINCE YOU HAVE CHOSEN TO BE QUIET
NOW I KNOW YOU DONT HAVE GUTS TO
BE A LEADER KEEP ON HIDING WHERE YOU
ARE WHILE MALAWIANS ARE SUFFERING
Dausi is a stupid dull guy, he thinks he will be a minister 4ever, where is Chaponda, kaliati? akonyoza anthu a Mulungu, DPP kubatu ndikomwe mwatchuka nako, mmafuna a PAC ayamikire zimenezo? Come out and see how the nation is breeding from DPP failures.
There is nothing new indeed. PAC must suggest constructive solutions osati misonkhano vuu maallowance vuuuuuuuu Opportunists
Peter Mutharika’s government does not take any suggestions seriously, no matter how constructive the ideas may be!!! As far as he is concerned, the best ideas are ‘with him’ and those that surround him, hence Malawi’s poor performance in all areas. As far as he is concerned, he is a jack of all trades but clearly he is a specialist of none!!!!!!!
@ Prof malawimotobuuu
Actually last year PAC presented a whole list of suggestions and solutions but what did your inept president do. Did he listen ?Don’t display your stupidity in public because the fact of the matter is that this president of yours does not take advice. Chakwera did provide solutions. Did you listen.?. The so called prof let me tell you that malawi’s problems require radical remedies and solutions to address the kind of problems that are rampaging through the country and these have been dutifully offered by PAC and chakwera but you never listened. So mr fool stop talking about things that you don’t know about
Loud and clear for all stupid people like Nick to hear. Keep it up PAC.
I understand why Nick responds negatively to PAC’s report. He cannot see corruption we face at Road and Police Traffic, MRA, DCs Offices, almost at every public office. Nick visits foreign medical centres and does know the situation in our public health facilities. Nick has 24/7 power supply,. Nick travels on tarred roads. When he travels he see Malawi transformed, his bank accounts fattened and assets multiplied. Nick’s children do no attend public schools. So he doesn’t know conditions in our public schools. These appalling conditions dont just exist in the Mutharika Republic he resides. Our request is one day get out of the Republic and visit us. You will see lives shattered, broken souls, hopeless men and women. You will see a nation bleeding from poverty, corruptions, tribalism, inefficiencies, collapse of social services. Open your eyes and see tears in our eyes.
dausi himself is a pathological lier……. Ndipo sachita manyazi akamanama
Yes this DPP and its leadership have real failed to run this country. We are all watching and waiting patiently for 2019. Mdala u ndiolephera akapume basi
well, maybe PAC would have started with commending the government on the little positive things they have done, because once you criticize someone without any compliments, they are bound to defend themselves, its nature! However, I ask myself that what little positive things has DPP done?? hmmmm I am not sure. Otherwise, the criticisms are ON POINT. DPP government should humbly sit down and evaluate themselves basing on what PAC is saying, otherwise we will indeed soon say, enough is enough!!
I salute you PAC for this strong statement. DPP led government has completely failed to run this country. They use MBC to paint a beautiful picture of DPP achievement in the past 3 years. Every sensible Malawian can not trust MBC and its stupid journalists.
