Joyce Banda vows to seek return to presidency: Says 1 million job creation possible in Malawi
Immediate past president and leader of People’s Party (PP) Joyce Banda has vowed that she want to give the country’s top job another shot by contesting in the May 21 2019 elections, saying she has solutions to the unemployment and power outages Malawi is facing under the Democratic Progressive Party (DPP) administration.
Banda has promised to take Malawi to greater heights if given the opportunity to serve again, explaining that DPP has failed the country/
She said this during rallies at Mangochi Boma at St. Augustine 3 Primary School ground on Sunday and repeated on Monday at another rally in Makanjira.
Banda said lack of jobs in the country is driving the country’s youth into economic migrant to South Africa and other foreign countries, promising tocreate jobs for the youth.
“We need to create factories that will employ our youths so that if they will have to travel to South Africa it should not be because of greener pasture,” she explained.
Banda said creating over one million jobs was not a difficult , saying her government would give the youth loans to engage in small scale businesses and in turn employ others.
On electricity, Banda said she would solve the problem once and for all within a short period of time and that she would increase power generation in the country.
“Everyone knows that when it comes to electricity challenges, I am the only person who has the solutions. I have a record on that; once voted into power next year, within 100 days I will deal with the electricity problem and blackouts will be history.
“We will increase power generation with 3,000 megawatts and this will boost the energy sector and the country’s economy,” Banda assured.
PP Vice President for the Eastern Region, Roy Kachale – who is a son of Banda – assured people that the party would contest in the May 2019 elections fielding Joyce Banda as its presidential candidate.
With all due respect, STOP taking Malawians for fools ! #Cashgate2.0
You make me sick Madam. Why not just retire to Songani or Domasi. Do you know what a crook is? It is one who behaves Holly on the outside but is a deadly snake inside. That’s you mam. Forget ruling Malawi, ever.
As you might have picked up madam Joyce, running a country isn’t for the faint-hearted. As a leader overseeing 18,5m people, you would have to be sharp and intolerant of abuse by cronies. What happened during your reign madam was a disgrace. Funds were looted right in front of you and all you did was exposing the rot and could not take decisive action against those who clearly did not have your interest (or Malawians) at heart. I say this madam; please apologise to the nation for your oversight during rampant cashgate before your emerge as a presidential aspirant…..otherwise you’ll… Read more »

Oh yes!!! JB did more in two years than APM has done in five. It was just naive of her to expose cashgate during that period. She should have waited till after winning the general elections. Paja aMalawi sitichedwa kuiwala or timaiwala dala. Remember that when JB was taking over electricity woes were worse than now and fuel scarcity was worse than at any other period of our history yet she dealt with those problems within a 100 days of being in office. Remember that when she was going into office govt coffers were empty because Bingu had looted everything.… Read more »
