God is angry with Malawi because of ‘opposite of the positive’ media —PIM leader Rev Makondetsa
Providence Industrial Mission (PIM) president Reverend Patrick Makondetsa has said God is angry with Malawi which is facing economic turmoil blaming the media for negative reporting.
Rev Makondetsa made the remarks in Chiradzulu on Sunday in a sermon at a function to honour the late John Chilembwe.
The prayers were held to John Chilembwe day. Chilembwe revolted against British rule from January 23 1915 due to structural conditions in the colonial set up and marginalised State policies on land, labour and taxation among Africans.
The revolt ended with his death on February 3 1915 in Mulanje as he tried to flee to Mozambique.
In his sermon, Rev Makondetsa claimed the media didn’t care about informing the public or building the country’s image but there is envy and personal gains.
He said, the media is the main agent to change the thinking and shape the approach.
Makondetsa also accused the opposition for negative reporting ,saying both the media and opposition spoon-feeds the public with negative stories about government failures.
“God is angry with the nation of Malawi because of negative reporting that is taking place,” said Makondetsa.
“And he is saying to the nation of Malawi today: They [hose involved in bad reporting] will keep wandering in the wilderness.”
Added Makondetsa amid ululations from government officials that Malawi is “derailing into under-development because of the negative reporting.”
The PIM leader said those involved in “negative reporting” and not patriotic reporting “will never see the promised land.”
He went on: “ God was angry. The Promised Land was an 11-day march to Canaan, but because of the bad reporting, it took the Israelites 13 000 days. Bad reporting, negative reporting, is not good to any nation. It derails development. It upsets the strong minded, it confuses the strong.”
Makondetsa said negative reporting “is a greater evil” of Malawi.
He said negative reporting “plants fear among citizens of this nation. It undermines the capability of its citizens. It kills hardworking spirit of their people.
But journalists have argued that they don’t create the news but report the news.
In his remarks President Mutharika paid tribute to Chilembwe.
He urged Malawians to embrace the spirit of love as well as hard work and determination which Chilembwe had for the country to develop.
Born in 1871, Chilembwe attended Virginia Theological Seminary and College in the United States of America (USA) and returned to Malawi around 1901 (after being ordained as a Baptist minister) to establish the Providence Industrial Mission (PIM) in Chiradzulu district.

His Rev. is worthy to be revoked now. Abusa anji abodza. Has he seen how people are suffering? Whose Sympathy is he trying to buy. Which God is the so called Rev. serving. Shame! The God we serve will punish such people for enriching themselves.
How can things change for better if such reverends do not talk the truth. Misleading people that there is bad reporting yet what is being reported is true. Wanting to please the presidents. Shame. Aim to please God not people.
God hears the cries of its people. Time will tell.
Koma abusa ena……ndinu oleketsa anthu kupemphera ndithu… Mulungu wake nde uti?
Reverend Makondetsa, Do you want the Media & Opposition to say all is rosy when people are suffering out there? Infact, God is angry coz of people like you. The Bible in Exodus 20 has 10 Commndments. One forbids lying & another forbids stealing. One compels us to love one another. Of all the 10 Commandments, if you break one it means you have broken all 10 as they are closely linked. God’s law is spiritual. Mr Makondetsa or whatever they call you, I ask you to read this chapter & understand it or ‘Your sin will find you out.’ You are one of the people who are misleading this headless Mutharika which is, eventually, leading to his downfall. The mouth of the Lord has spoken, so watch out!
Malawians always in denial. Either akudya nawo or akufuna kudya ndi Rev Dr Fake Accent…..nothing objective that is in between…cry my beloved mostly barefeet banana republic.
the media do report indeed not create stories but can u honestly say that columnist and radio show hosts both from MBC or Times are not creating stories look at the two guys from Times who are always dissing the president very personal. is that reporting?
Useless and dead Rev.
Mmm. Zanu izo
Is this a vision or he’s sleep walking? At how much has he been bought? So very shameful
maybe reverendgate
I think this Rev amudyetsa banzi. mbusa wa bwino wa PIM was John chilembwe. osata awa owamikira atsogolero akuti zunza.
I miss Bishop Mukasa Zuza who could call a spade by its name.MHSRIP
Mr Makondetsa not Rev. this is best title to call you by. The term Reverend is not supposed to be played with.
Makondetsa you have openly declared that you are also a gangster, criminal, robber and murderer as your DPP fellows.
I desired you leave the church and start politics.
Makondetsa wadya nawo manyi omwe a DPP akudya.
Makondetsa you are a prophet of Baal but your days are dew. The end as it happened to the prophets of Baal during Ahab King has also come to your door.
very stupid man
reverend sir whose theology?
God is angry because of the misrule, corruption, nepotism, intolerance, injustice and oppression by our elected leaders Mr Reverend. Same thing happened in 1992, remember? He is always with His people. Sangasiye anthu ake kumangolira. Time will come.
Mbusa John Chilembwe akanabwera lero ndithu akanadura mitu ya atsongoleri awa akubawa lero osati azungu.Kodi utsingoleri wanji wosafuna kuti anthu a mtundu wache azisangalala?Iwenso mbusa iwe ndiye kaya ukanamuuza bwana wakoyo chilungamo,anthu ngati inu ndi amene mukumulakwitsa tsongoleri wanuyo.Mulonda akaoona nkhondo ikubwera mmudzi iye osaimba lipemga lodziwitsa anthu za nkhondo,anthu ndikupululika mwanzi wawo uli mwaiye.Samala mau a Mulungu ngoona.
this reverand is a pussieclaat man of Lucifa….thus why kampingo kanuko mkumalalikirana mbali yanu yomweyo sikakukula…..never seen an idiot reverand like this one before….he is just useless same as urine…and also this is a wake up call to everybody from SOUTHERN region coz we dont wish Malawi well we just vote bcoz somebody is from our region!!!!
Malawi needs to gét rid of such Rev mmalo molalokira za Umulungu he was busy trying to please the so called Pitala, abusa mwachititsa manyazi mpingo wanu ngati mufuna ndalama osangopempha bwanji che Chaponda Maize akanakugailani za maize gate. Gehena likukudikirilani azibusa onga inu. shame shame shame on you the so called Reverend wa devil.
stupid Makondetsa ,not worthy to be called Reverend. which church do you lead? ”assemblies of DPP youth cadets” fotsekiiiiiiiiii
Oh Foolish Galatians who deceived you to insult a reverend. Which reverend did you want to preach at Chilembwe’s commemoration? That clueless reverend dr fake tongue…kkkkkkkk
You people are selfish! You are now attacking the media trying to silence them. If Kamuzu was like that we wouldnt have democracy today in Malawi. God punish you all.
I dI totally agree with Rev Makondesa for what he has said. Those who call him stupid or fool be very very careful when you begin experiencing something different in your life Dont be surprised that’s the beginning of your serious problems. I wish I knew your phone and talk to you in private but it’s not allowed on this media.
The media and Chakwera is to blame seriously. Because lies let me assure you the reality though Iam not a son of the prophet MCP and those supporting him even through media will face serious consequences from God. You fight with me on this know that you are fighting with God and it’s a matter of days and weeks something unusual will start happening to you.
Media is putting us to fear even those in diaspora are afraid to invest in Malawi due to negative reporting also thinking that Mcp will bring war in Malawi Late Kampbulusa of Mcp said Multiparty as war in chichewa he said Multiparty ndi nkhondo
Stop attacking Makondesa you will see very soon and you will apologize on this media
God is in control
MAKONDESA NDIWE YUDASI WA LERO .WALANDILA NDALAMA KWA PITALA
Actually, This Makondetsa guy is not a trained minister. He just did education at chanco majoring in Theology and later did an MA research on the history of PIM. Because PIM hardly has well trained ministers he is the one eyed among the blind. That explains his shallow hermeneutics that only reflects his political leanings. Woe unto you false prophets who prophesy to earn your bread from the Kings/rulers!
Understand the scripture rev 1peter 1:23 being born again not ov corrruptable seed but incorruptible by the word of God . firstly the rev is born again not the one whose bought with money. It dosnt matter how people calls u Reverend or just coz u r in gawn doesn’t mean truth is in u. Unless u are born again the you’ll speak the truth. Remember God told moses to speak to the rock so that the rock should bring water but moses Stroke the rock but still more water came out but God was not happy about it even though the child of Israel had water to drink
Let’s stop crying like babies, n move forward. If we are not happy wc this administration, when time comes choose what is right then, remember what bible says, love your nabour as you love ur self . Stop gossiping, we cn do bettert than crying n gossip
Reverand uyu yekha map**** ake ndithu.
This revered wapasidwa chi bazi
The Reverend was only used as a vessel for carrying the words. Atolankhani a paMalawi okhwefula, oyenda barefoot akumwa paketi ya mkaka wa dairibord ndi limenelo…kukana chidzudzulo….kkkkkkkkkkk
Stupid reverend. Anangomudyetsa ma banzi kuti ayankhule zopusa
What else did you expect from Rev. Mkondesa. Him and his church are parasites of the DPP.
To PIM Church DPP is their God. They save Baal DPP.
Do not forget this is a District and a particular AREA where gruesome murders with removal of teeth, eyes and other human parts originated during UDF.
He is from a very wicked community where cannibalism was first recorded in Malawi.
Remember one uncle is serving sentence for killing his own niece for relish.
What else do you expect from a person who leads a church and community that boasts for beheading Liston. To them murder is a normal thing, no wonder their party does and toes the same line. They both save an evil community and this evil community saves them.
When DPP leadership is angry, not happy and groomy to him it means his God is displeased.
Rev. Makondetsa Sir, that is why God is angry with Malawi coz of men of God who preach to please people or leaders. The situation that Malawi is needs media that calls a spade a spade. It needs Men of God who fears God alone and not leaders. Rev Makondetsa,how can you say that it’s because of negative reporting? Did cash gate happen coz of negative reporting? Did tractor gate happen coz of negative reporting? Did maize gate happen coz of negative reporting? Are the universities closed coz of the same? Is a bag of maize at 12,500 Kwacha coz of negative reporting, are the 9 million Malawian denied access to maize( food) because of negative reporting? Wake up my brother, Joshua, Elishah, Elijah, Samuel and many others didn’t preach/ prophecy to please Kings. Right Hon Saulos Chilima talked about the same thing 2 weeks ago, kuti osamaimbira mfiti m’manja.
Mulungu dalitsani Malawi, m’musunge mtendere. Gonjetsani adani onse Njala,
Nthenda, Nsanje
[Surely these are the greatest enemies of our mother Malawi]
Stupid fool wadya kuti ulankhule zopusazo m’busa wonyenga chitsilu!
I totally agree with you rev. This called media always divide us as a nation,
WTF? Like seriously? This priest needs to be hanged by the tongue.
A Reverend God iz angry with Malawi for the negative reporting are u sure the msge ur are preaching is from God or ur msge trying to please ur president and maize gate minister truth is being reported by the media and ur standing against it man of godo please preach what the Bible and God is saying not othe other way round its high time we rise up for the trueth for the betterment of malawi,john Chilembwe was against all this he fought for peace,love, and trueth to learn
This revrand is pitaras shit. Bibi
Abusa awa ofunika deliverance ndithu, ziwanda zalowa zambiri. Abusa aMakondetsa are you in Malawi? Or you are living in your own world but in Malawi? Please be serious abusa. Were you there when Catholics and Chihana were fighting for this democracy you are enjoying today by stealing from Malawians? You were there as Rev. and saw people being beaten by your own DPP boys/thugs at your own church ground, abusa chonde musatikwiyitse aMalawi ndife okwiya kale ndi njala. Go to Catholic Bible school abusa aMakondetsa mukaphunzirenso bcoz it shows kuti you have never been to Bible school just look at the figures of days you have mentioned are no where in the bible
Is it negative reporting to bring to the attention of Malawians the theft of National resources through Cashgate, Tractorgate, Embassygate, Maizegate etc? The problem with our preachers(priests, pastors, Bishops, Sheiks etc), particularly those associated with Mulakho, is that they tend to please leaders during their preaching instead of castigating them for the suffering people are going through. The media only reports what is going on. Please leave the homily to others if you have nothing better to preach to your congregation.
Vuto lokoza uthenga okondweretsa anthu omayikamo maganizo ako osati Mau a Mulungu monga alili,a Media analemba zomwe zikuchitika,sangalembe kuti kulibe katangale pomwe Ena akubanja ndalama zachimanga.Sangalembe kuti magetsi akuyaka pomwe kuli ma blackout ambirimbiri.Unthengawo amafuna asangalatse a President zomwe Mulungu sangakondwe nazoso chifukwa mfumu yoyikira kumbuyo mbava kumwamba sangakondwere nayo.
the reverend is angry with the media not God. lets be positive but when there is anything worth reporting, be bold to report it without fear. Malawians deserve to know what is going on in the land. access to information
God is angry with Malawi because of foolish reverends like you Makondetsa who cannot stand and speak on behalf of innocent Malawians who are also your flocks on the evils happening in government tht result in putting Malawians lives in danger. There’s too much corruption in government and you can’t deny this fact tht the President is shielding some senior officials. DPP thugs are hunting for innocent heads and people are living in hiding. University students are still in their respective homes coz government is not willing to re-open the schools. No even asprin in govt hospitals. You as a Malawian knows this but you are just quiet and blaming opposition and media. Do you think God can spare you?
Men of God of nowadays ……..kkkkkkkkkkkkkk……. are fter earthly things…….money……kkkkkkkk….failing to tell the king the truth. Rev. Makondetsa, you’re a coward, it’s only the truth that can set you free, be strong like Prophets of the Old Testament or Jesus’ disciples who never feared. Shame to you ….
I reserved some respect for this Rev. But I am disappointed. The sermon lacked theological precepts and spirituality. Just political
Reverend wopusa uyu,anakafunsa kaye anthu a mpingo wake kuti how many are able to eat three times a day,are they able to access medical care akapita ku ma public hospitals??this government is full of corruption including the president,so my take is that God is angry because of mbava za dpp zomwe zikupangitsa kuti anthu a mulungu azuzike.But very soon,and I say very soon God will punish them including you Rev makondetsa if you are one of them.idiot pastor
Which country is the Reverend living? Journalists do not create news but report it. How much were you bought? I have never seen or heard a reverend backing thieves.
Kalupungana Ka Rev Kinu Akoo, Kuyowoya Kose Uko Kokhumba Kalyeko Nako Za Cashgate! Fokofuu Muneneli Wonyengaa
Amakondetsa m’mapemphera ?Kuba akuba achina chapondku ma family awo mku malemera amalawi mkumasaukirabe mukanene kuti bad reporting zowona ?Munthalika akuba ndalama mkumakaika m’ma account a ana ake ku america mukanene kuti bad reporting? chaponda waba ndalama za chimanga amalawi mkumafa ndi njala mukanene kuti bad reporting?In my whole life i have never seen a corrupt paster like you it is just shown that you have pocketed something.Mr Makondetsa you are from the vision of our departed farther John Chilembwe who didn’t want to see malawias been starving ,he didn’t want corruption,he didn’t want people sleeping with hunger he was a visionary leader not like peter munthalika who used to shield people who have stolen our tax money.Mr Makondetsa ndalama zomwe mwalandirazo mzotembereredwa zomwe awabera a malawi.
The Reverend is another APM/DPP stooge, he see that things are falling apart and he chose to side with corrupt DPP.
God will punish you for trying to suppress the truth.
Rev Makondetsa is very right. I hope the president was listening and will take action against the swindlers George Chaponda and his team if he does not gain from the CAKE.
Now some questions to the reverend. Should the media report that which is not true? Is it not true that there is a great corruption in our country? Is it not true that colleges are still closed? Is it not true that we have a maize saga in the country? Is it not true that economically the country is retrogressing? Is it not true that there are no drugs in our public hospitals? With these few mentioned things, if the reporters writes the way things are , should we say this is negative reporting????
