What I don’t understand is why MCP with Chakwera really are pushing for 50+1? The last time I checked, I heard that MCP is ready to win in 2019 tripartite elections. Now how are Malawians going to benefit from this 50+1 issue? Do ordinary people in the rural areas even know what this means? Is this what Malawians need or what the few educated need? My personal opinion, I stand to be corrected if need be, it’s only the few who are crying about this so what’s the importance of this anyway. If MCP is ready to wrestle power from… Read more »

Who said the bills would pass automatically when presented in Parliament? Parliament is not a rubber stamp. PAC wanted the bill’s presented and they were. Outcome is nothing of their concern. Continuing with demos is now blackmailing parliament to succumb to their wishes. Kagwireni yanu ntchito pagome. Zam”bale, chachikhumi etc zikukuyembekezani. kkkkkk. Ait kumenyera nkhonde mbusa nzawo. Zopusa basi.

The problem is PAC. Govt wanted to prove PAC wrong. And it will be known tomorrow as to who is behind PAC demos. We know the NGO which is sponsoring the demos PAC planned.

Indeed the scheme is driven home. No moral person can claim that MPs exercised there democratic right in parliament when we actually know that DPP went into the bush hunting for partners in crime……possibly to shoot down the proposed Electoral Reforms Bills. So it’s really hypocrisy to claim democracy has triumphed in Malawi parliament.
We’ve a lot of home work to finish before we fix the state of affairs in our country. Anyway, it’s sad that we’re all losers in this regard. The executive, legislature and electorate are all to blame for the mess

MCP should indeed follow the tactics which DPP used to defeat Amayi: i.e. focusing on the cashgating of DPP. There are many cases like the one Chakwera highlighted on the Generators. Each parastatal, each Ministry has its own stories to tell about wanton DPP stealing through misprocurement. From now up to the time of the elections, MCP should put APM and DPP on the defensive regarding all the instances in which well connected people have turned public funds into private wealth. DPP should not be given time to breathe. This strategy worked for DPP against PP; now its payback time,… Read more »

Kodi mukamalilira 50+1 yet inu nomwe mmati DPP inabera ma vote. Ndani anakuuzani kuti 50+1a vote sabedwa? Ku Russia amapanga 50+1 koma Putin amangowinabe.
Ndiye Pitala ali m’mboma azachita kuberatu mapeto azawina ndi 73% kuti muzamve kuwawa. A MCP muli busy kukangana Ku opposition ndiye Boma mungalithe inu? Atcheya anati kuyendesa Boma ndi serious business osati za nyau

It is very disheartening to see or hear some lomwe people taking it personal with the Chewa people like the so called Ben Phiri. This is Malawi not Lomwe land. If you think because Pitala ali mboma ndiye kuti zones ziribwino ukunama. Bwanji sizinayende bwino for dpp on October 17 2017. Do not think your dpp will manipulate the elections come 2019, if so it will be a recipe for civil disobedience and mark my words civil disobedience. You forget that it was the stupidity of Muluzi who sold gaffment to Lomwes. You should also know that dpp can fool… Read more »

The opposition in grossly compromised with Richard Msowoya as Speaker of Parliament. He is part of the shenanigans exploiting their positions for self-enrichment at the moment. He is heading this mafia group for self-aggrandisement. In my view MCP flopped itself big time, in the first place when it opted to settle for Msowoya as speaker of parliament. In my opinion he is politically too variegated, an opportunist not to be trusted at all. In fact he is a government ally and the leader of all this shenanigansism in parliament at the moment. His family too like that of Goodall Gondwe… Read more »

You have serious personal issues with the North. By the way, it’s liability and not reliability. Don’t talk about things you are not fully aware of. It makes you sound daft and frivolous. Kwithu tikuti chindere!

Agree with you man Mnyamata wa nzeru. Enawa kukamwa yasaaaa phokoso too much. Even pa social media, too much phokoso pamene anzawo a DPP have lots of things to show Malawians. They think they can make a vibrant campaign on electricity woes, water woes, things which can be eliminated before 2019. Nawo a Chakwera ndale za nzanje, za phuma, za mwano kuzolowera zomwe amachita kwa azibusa ndi akhritsu a Assemblies. Here is where the difference is between mature politicians and amateur politicians. Kuputsitsidwa ndi a ma bungwe, ndi PAC. Ka by-election komwe kajatu some myopic supporters amanyang’wa ngati apita kale… Read more »

Are you totally blind not to sense the kind of mess we are in? Why do you are trying to portray a good picture of a country which is totally in ruins? You cannot compare the chuff we are in with our neighbours. Ngakhale pa line, neba akamadya bwino inu mukukhalira kulira zimapsesa mtima.

Inunso ndalezi ndiye simuzidziwatu. Inu mukuganiza kuti ndi koyamba parliament kukana bill? So you think PAC is above Parliament? In actual fact, parliament yangowaonetsa a PAC kuti they don’t represent people but it’s them who debate bills in parliament. Full stop.
