Every time I tune in to MBCTv it’s Nankhumwa, Jappie Mhango, Geffrey daily in their news broadcast. TV Dpp.
PHILLIP BUSINESS HOW DO YOU FEEL WHEN YOU SEE THE PLACARD. HOW HAVE YOU ALLOWED POLITICIANS TO USE YOU AND TARNISH YOUR PROFESSIONAL IMAGE. I FEEL SORRY FOR YOU AND YOUR CAREER.
He will regret this soon.
Are Malawians surprised that MBC is biased towards DPP? Selfishness and NEPOTISM is synonymous with Lhomwe tribe. Ndi mtundu wodzikonda, wodzikundikira. It’s iin their DNA. Look at the cabinet, directors in government sectors and parastatals, procurement contracts, the list is ENDLESS. And when BJ was minister of information during Muluzi’s time what happened with recruitment at MTL and TNM? Just profile names and their district of origin? Of coz they even openly boast about it, “expect no vote for any other party other than DPP from Lhomwe belt”. In fact given the chance this tribe would rather rule Malawi till… Read more »
The reason given by Dzuka Malawi is very shallow. BBC is a government owned media organisation, but the fact that it is funded by tax payers money it is very objective. If the Prime Minister messes up, they don’t ignore the mess, but expose it to the public. The point here should be that MBC is not professional- period. It does not require people to be vocal where the law is clear withing the Communications Act. Which is above the other – people or the law? What if the people march to MBC and get everyone out and put either… Read more »
You really didn’t understand my point Just Penny. My point is that in other countries like South Africa (and UK)……where they have government owned broadcasters, the public is so vocal that SABC and BBC can never be captured by the ruling party. In Malawi however, we are so inert, passive and unsophisticated to vocalise our distaste, at least in masses, for the use of MBC as a mouthpiece for ruling parties. These CSOs protests are nowhere near effective for ruling parties to abandon the use of MBC as a propaganda machinery. I hope you now understand what I am saying.
So MBC is captured
MBC is a National Broadcaster whose sole shareholder is the government. The government is controlled by the ruling party. Our history has shown that MBC was the mouthpiece of all the ruling parties from MCP, UDF, Bingu-DPP, PP and the Peter-DPP. MBC is a propound machinery unless it is partially privatised and its constitution or MOI amended appropriately. Although South Africa has managed to free SABC from ANC propaganda, that has come from a vocal society. Malawians are no where near as vocal as South Africa, for example. Malawi is still in a “bwana, bwana, bwana” politics. Even if the… Read more »
Having such mind thus why MBC is still pro DPP.What you must know is DPP did not bring the MBC and its not a party broadcaster but its a Malawian Broadcaster hence it is suppose to broadcast anything regardless of which organisation or Region
Beasts of prey have surrounded the old president, that’s why MBC can’t be freed up . Akufuna azitukwana Chakwera pamenepo. Agogowa azipita akula, akalambitsa, ngakhale pakamwa mpobwafuka, kulankhula zomveka samatha, ndiotayilila , akungoba ndalama za boma mkumalubwalubwa pa MBC kuti anthu aku mudzi aziwona ngati zinthu zili bwino. DPP waitha yekha Pitala, yatha ngati makatani.
Simunayende inu amene mukti a national broadcaster (MBC) should open up to the opposition groups. Were you there when the DPP was in opposition? What was PP doing.? Did it give DPP opposition Party a chance pto be heard on MBC. Dzukani a Malawi. Yendani muone zomwe zikuchitika mmaiko ena. You wiill never have opposition heard on National Radio. Leave DPP alone. It is thier time. A opposition ngato akufuna kumvedwa apite ku Times TV and Zodiak Not MBC
Stupid comment….then MBC should use tax only from people like you! Its our tax and we will not allow DPP to continue abusing MBC. Its people like you who are slowing down the development of this country through your ignorance. Maiko ake ati mwayenda inu…? Shut up!!
Mbuli iwe!!! Unayenda dziko lake liti kumene National Broadcaster angachite zauchitsiru zikuchitika PA MBC?
Two wrongs doesn’t make a right.If UDF & PP did that it doeasnt it should be a trend,if you really love DPP,let it make a difference.Open up.Inu kugwida chigololo akazi anu ndikupanganso.Palibe cholakwika pa inu????
This isw what we don’t want for our public broadcaster to side with a party
Malawians have become clever – they know that CSOs are there for their own stomachs. The reasons for the demos do not make sense.
Shame on CSOs and MCP. ALL the hype but VERY few people.
shame should be on cowards like you.
Achitsiru di inu
Shame on you stupid person who can’t even see the crowd
How useless pipo like u destroy our nation. Your children will feel the pain malawians are passing through.
