I agree with all those who have criticised Kapito. Why is Kapito attacking IMF and World Bank? Mr Kapito please know that IMF and World Bank do not need Malawi. It is Malawi that needs these two institutions. Mr Kapito you mean you do not know that if these institutions gave Malawi funding without conditionalities these funds would be misused by the DPP govt? Have you already forgotten NACGATE? These parastatals are a drain of taxpayers money and badly abused by the ruling party. Look MBC is now just a mouthpiece of the DPP regime that is failing to transform… Read more »

Our country has been sold already to the foreigners. What do you expect from people who do not know the vision of the people who founded ESCOM? No wonder tafika pomgulitsa mafupa athu. Chifukwa chosowa zochita. Malawi walero, ndiwa mawa is very painful. Kapito has a point don’t criticize. He has been in the country. He knows our roots. Some of you only know branches where fruits are. Shame on you. Leave Kapito. He has a point. Iwe ukupanga makani ungagule ESCOM? Ndiwe olemera ngati amwenye akudzamaza Blantyre ndi Lilongwe?

Mr. Kapito needs to understand the words that he is saying. First, it is not in the interest of Government to run businesses. That is why we have a public sector and a private sector. Government’s role is to ensure that rules and regulations are followed that are at the benefit of the major populace. Second, if we Malawians keep on thinking that its donors who want us to change then we will remain poor for the rest of our lives and keep on celebrating independence on July 6 of being poor. Let’s face it, for 51 years our public… Read more »

People, let us be honest. What do we gain from the current status of ESCOM? Blackouts and inefficiencies. I mean ESCOM has been abused by politicians so much that it is almost bankrupt. It is not even answerable or accountable to the customers. Why do you still want this entity to be in Public Hands? By the way, we pay for the loans that ESCOM takes through our taxes yet we do not get much joy in its services. Even the tarriffs are not as low as some people would want us believe. Think of Malawi Telecoms. We have moved… Read more »

Mr Kapito got it wrong. IMF knows that Malawi government enjoys siphoning out money from Escom, Waterboard etc to finance political meetings instead of benefitting the population. This is an endeavor by IMF to close loose holes that are acting as conduits to siphone out resources from this poor nation.

its true govt should not give away escom because the benefit to the masses is little as experience has shown on past sale of other entities.

Mr Kapito, you told us that ESCOM power all day everyday was a blue lie. ESCOM then danced to your tune with towards power all day everyday.The change In the motto yielded no results in ESCOM s perfomance. Sir,Kapito you can’t be good in commenting all issues. Kenya and many African countries unbundled their power utilities and they are successful. Sir it pains us when these companies become milking cows for some political god fathers at the expense of poor Malawians. Are you happy when you see ESCOM trucks ferrying people to political party meetings? Sir Kapito, on this topic… Read more »
