MCP protest secondary school fees hike, refuse to ask minister questions
Opposition Malawi Congress Party (MCP) legislators on Tuesday vehemently protested government decision to raise fees in secondary schools, saying this would hurt the poor in the harsh economic times.
Leader of opposition Lazarus Chakwera then told deputy speaker Clement Chiwaya that the opposition would not ask questions to the minister of Education Emmanuel Fabiano who presented a ministerial statement on the secondary school fees hike and abolishment of Junior Certificate Examination.
However, Leader of the House Francis Kasaila said it was surprising that the MCP was protesting fees in schools, saying when the party was in power, poor Malawians struggled to pay school fees from primary school.
“Malawians were paying school fees when they were poor during the MCP rule, they were paying the fees when they were extremely poor. These are facts although you may not wish to hear this.
“We were paying school fees although we were not rich, we are not rich now but the government wants to improve the quality of education, that is the concern of all well meaning Malawians,” said Kasaila.
In his ministerial statement, Fabiano said the fees were last hiked in 2000 when boarding fees were hiked to K1500, general purpose fund was at K500, tuition fees was at K500, text book revolving fund was at K250 and different schools charged different fees for development fund which he said in most cases, was not used for the intended purpose.
Fabiano said there were huge disparities in fees as school fees in national secondary school which is now at K25000 per term, district boarding schools fees were at K35000, government aided schools were charging K55000 and community day students were paying K65000.
He said in some schools, students were paying K5000 for development fund, saying the new arrangement has avoided the disparities and discrepancies and harmonised all fees instead.
Fabiano said the government is still subsidising each student, saying the government is subsidising K480000 per student annually in national secondary school, K136000 per student in a year in district boarding secondary schools, K150 000 per student in a year in day secondary schools and K88 000 per year in community day secondary schools.
He said the new fees will improve the teaching and learning process.
“If this is not done, the quality of education shall continue to decline and it will not be possile to reverse in future,” he said.
Fabiano said the government is aware that the new fees will put pressure on parents and guardians but said the government has put aside K480m as bursary money for the poor.

Stupid minister go to hell idiot, I said it that Fabiano angokula mutu alibe nzelu idiot.
YOU GUYS, DONT DO THINGS FOR YOUR OWN BENEFITS. YOU ARE TAKING THE ODD CHARGES AND COMPARING THEM WITH THAT OF NOWDAYS WHY? THINGS ARE SOCIALLY,TECH NOLOGICALLY AND ECONOMICALLY IMPROVING. PLEASE GOVERNMENT OFFICIALS TAKE ACTION ON THAT, FAILING WHICH PROBLEMS IN MALAWI WILL NEVER END. TROUBLES WILL KEEP ON ACCERARATING.
Someone says they were paying 350 in 1994. OK the exchange rate was $1:MK2, now it is $1:MK600. If we use this as a gactor, then we should be paying fees of above MK100,000.
Make your own judgement which is more expensive.
that is very false that they have set aside 4 hundred something million for the poor. they lied that they set aside 1.5 billion for the poor in relevant to tertiary education. if that was the plan they could not release the names of such poor after matching and after taking too much time. up to now the real money has not even reached the target destination. the school is for rich people in malawi. if you are not rich then you will not learn. i know someone who has been selected to boarding school but is failing to learn there because of lacking fees. This government is coming wicker and wicker anytime. Even themselves did not meet such problems. even the president himself has never meet that problems. he learned using different scholarships. that is very wicked that i have never seen. yet his elder brother was taking all the students under normal intake. that was producing greatest motivation. this professor is not a genius bola nkulu wake uja. think about poor please. make people to like school. not those people who are working hard should be suffering.
MAYO INEE!!! HOW WILL I KNW THAT MY SON IS IMPROVING IN STUDIES IF HE STARTS STANDARD UP TO 4M 4 WITHOUT WITHOUT A PAPER?
What Fabiano is saying that they subdise 85000 ku Community Day,sindugwirizana nazo. Mupita mmaxul,how pathtic condition xulz are. 1 literature book the whole xul. So subsidy ikubwera pati?? And u say there were a lot of disparities that in community they were paying k35000,whch community day secondary xulz?? That’s not true. Give people the right information. Most of ur data is very wrong. And Kasaila,paying munthawi yaKamuzu chisakhale chifukwa choti enawo asamapange point out to problemz ure doing. And don’t u knw that MCP in parliament is new wt the old name?? They might see the problems their fathers were doing. U mean since old dpp store money under cashgate banner then ul continue?? And ucant ask the next gvts when they steal public money? Mutu uzigwira ntchito. Remember “the head is for thinking”
if we have been given an opportunity to raise our views when several companies are raising prices for their products no one will stand in support of it, that’s why we have the right to argue in one way or the other, but if you focus in considerations we can not compare 2015 against 1993. more than 20 years. what do you find to be the same?
You should consider per capita income when coming up with such policies.
For the urban poor, madzi akwera, magetsi akwera, cost of goods and services is very high. Ndiye izinso? Ana ambiri saphuinzira. For the rural poor ndiye nyanyi!!!!!! Most of them only have seasonal incomes during the time of harvest. Incomes which are disproportionate to the cost of imports. Some have no incomes at all. I know enanu munaphunzilira ndalama za kachasu ndiye mwati mu zunze ana anzanu The rich will get richer as the poor get poorer as education standards qualitatively and quantitatively continue to plummet
Akulu akulu mubweze ngongole zomwe munatenga pomwe munali ku unima komanso pakhale policy yomwe mabwana ambiri lero alipo abweze kuti ana nawo aphunzirikekonso. Chonde popeza palibe akufunsa in parliament . Koma dziwani kuti ana athu akusiya sukulu kusowa fees. Inuyo zanu zinayera fufuzani…
Fabiano failed at University of Malawi with his holistic outsourcing system. I have never and will ever appreciate fabiano’s way of doing things, he is a complete failure always ruled by emotions….
Lazalo,so what next if u don’t ask the minister questions to understand?
MCP is a rubbish party. Always argumentative in parliament. MCP was not only asking school fees but also pupils and students were being asked to cut membership cards/kudula makadi a chipani. Have you MCP forgotten this. Why making useless argument all the time? Machende anu agulugunya onyasa inu. You just sit phwi waiting for what the government will say so that you can oppose. Sons of the bitch. Agaru inu.
Fee hike is timely despite everything. The economy is simply telling us that we need to work even harder. Cultivate the soil dilligently and find more export markets. Since more people claim place into second class consumption of classfied goods and services are on higher demand. MCP should reason.
the proposal to raise school fees may be correct but the argument put by stupid Kasiala does not make any sense at all. It shows how dull this man is….
Kusaila ndi mbuli zedi, kodi tizikhalira kufanizira zomwe mcp inkachita nhtawi yaulamuliro wa chipani chimozi ndiye ngati ndichocho ma university tisamalipire tuition komanso tizikwera mabasi kugwiritsa ntchito ma concession tickets ndi zina zamabili zomwe boma la mcp linkapanga pofuna kutukula maphunziro. maganzi anu oterewo malawi singapite patsogolo chifukwa mukufuna zinthu zakale basi… pepani mwalephera kulamulira ziko ilo..
for sanity sake am of the view that timing of fee rise be considered mind you people Malawi has been impoverished than it was then give people means to catch fish first the talk fees hike
Mr President please fire your entire cabinet ministers, they are misleading you. You have wrong guide dogs. You have plenty honest citizens in Malawi that can lead the country together with you. How do you feel or even lift your head up wherever you go among your fellow head of states who most probably know a lot about Malawi’s education in days of MCP(NOTORIOUS AS MIGHT HAVE BEEN)? Get rid of the rote you have, you are only hurting yourself. Remember it is you and only you who will stand before God to account for your leadership and that time there will be no excuse and blaming your ministers. The only time you have is now not then.
There is too much hardship. If you cannot please do the honorable thing of stepping down
as other leaders had done and remained respected by their citizens. The example is just next door, the late Mwalimu Julius Nyerere. He remains honored regardless of his mistakes which landed Tanzania to where it was before he stepped down.
I write this not with the spirit of hate, but with the spirit of love.
How old is this minister who doesn’t know the history of Malawi education system in days of Malawi Congress Party under Hastings Kamuzu Banda? Is he truly malawian? Is Malawi gone so bad that in Parliament you have ministers who cannot think before opening their mouths? Oh cry the beloved Country.
The poor standard of education started in days of Bakili who had no clue whatsoever about education. Is it fees that makes my beloved Thabilo Full Primary School being run by two teachers, i mean FULL primary school, with standard 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8 having two teachers.
Comeon malawians the Country is run like a spaza shop, in actual sense the spaza shop is even run better.
Mr Minister if you didn’t know or may be not truly malawian. Apart from the fees we were paying for our excellent education, we were given concession tickets for transport to and from. As respectable, true malawian commented U NI VER SI TY was free. Thus tuition, res, B O O KS, M E A LS etc, etc. O N T O P of that pocket money. Guess what students helped their simblings back at their homes.
Please stop misleading people, especially of your kind because you are in game of politicking.
KWEZANI FEES, ITS ONLY MABULUTU A KONGOLESI WITH THEIR SMALL BRAINS AMENE SANGAMVETSE KUTI ITS HIGH TIME WE IMPROVED OUR EDUCATION STANDARDS.

children do not fall from heaven like manna. They are a product of choices which parents make. People who have children should also be responsible for the education of their children.

Leader of the House benefitted from Gwanda Chakwamba bursary kkkkkkkk
if you think education is expensive try Ignorance
THOSE WHO SAY FEES SHOULD BE HIKED BECAUSE PEOPLE PAID PRIMARY SCHOOL FEES DURING MCP ERA ARE HEARTLESS AND BOOTLICKERS. ASK PETER MTHALIKA AND HALF OF THOSE IN PARLIAMENT IF THEY PAID ANY FEES AT UNIVERSITY DURING MCP ERA? INSTEAD THEY RECIEVED TRAVEL WARRANTS ETC. SO IF YOU WANT TO COMPARE THEN ABOLISH UNIVERSITY FEES AS WELL. REMEMBER, THE MAJORITY OF THE POOR LIVE IN VILLAGES WHERE PRIVATE SCHOOLS HARDLY EXIST. PEOPLE ARE SUFFEREING IN VILLAGES, COLEGES ARE FULL OF CHILDREN OF THE RICH.
DZIKO KUWAWA CHONCHI BWABJI? KOMA ABALE YES YES YES YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I was paying K350.00 per term in 1994 (During MCP) but now I will need K55,000.00 to pay for my son. Please do not compare MCP time with the present time because some of the things were good during MCP. Imagine even transport of students and civil servants was subsidized. So DPP must first consult and then make a decision. osati mwakweza kale fees kenaka kumapita ku paliyamenti kukapeleka statement yachiyani? Mumafuna a MCP angoti eeee zamveka bwana? Zachamba basi.
Enanu Imfa Yanu Ili Pa Corner, Contnu God Z Watching All This

Leader of the house Mbuzi ya munthu
It is now apparent that the main opposition party in Malawi is cursed. Tell me how much kindergarten kids pay per month? What about these mushrooming private primary and secondary schools? Why are they flooded with pupils regardless of high fees? From where do these pupils come? You mean those who go to groceries turned into private secondary schools come from rich families? Munachita bwino achina Jessie kutseka kamwa zanuzo!
The fact that the Government want to raise fees in Secondary Education is applicable but before they do that they could have first of all make a research of how much do people receive as their salary in the Government, more especially Grade M and K. It is so sad that the majority of these grades are up to now below K65,000.00 yet the Government wants to hike the Secondary fees and investigate the welfare of people in the villages. Secondly, the same Government came at open through the H.E that the Government is not ready to increase salaries of all civil servants this year. So I wonder that if you raise fees, where are Malawians going to source extra money to pay for School fees of their children. The government should note that raising its product abnormally will encourage the following cases to occur in public Offices Theft, corruption, fraud, theft by trick, theft by public and other related cases due to its ram decisions.
During one party system we were paying because we had nowhere to go but now is mutiparty system ndiye mukamayankhula zinazi muziganiza osamangoyankhula zaumbuli basi ku paliament.Ndisazamvenso manyiwo mwamva a MP?
I think am tired and fed up with these comparisons….each time something comes up doe discussion in our august house then our government goes back in the days to compare how the MCP did it. ..Are we moving forward koma….? If the fees were last hikes in 2000 how did we reach at the latter figure being mentioned again….the K55000,the K65000 etc …pliz DDP led Govt stop the comparisons coz they won’t some of us feel you are governing with the seriousness we expect…it’s like you alwys look up to MCP for guidance…
kasaila mutu wako sugwira sungayerekenze K3.70 ndima sawuzande mukufuna kuwonjezerawo
Peter, if you penalize the poor man like this and God hears their cry in heaven, you will die like your brother. Do you know what happened to Bingu? Ask me, it was a cry and prayer of poor people. God wanted to rescue the Malawi race from evil leadership. If you believe in prophets, ask anyone of them. The bible says in proverb, ” when evil people rule, the children of GOD cry out”. Be careful please.God is about to bring relief to Malawians. When we are penalized like this, we know that our joy comes soon. That is the book of James.
mr fabiano,this is very very stupid and u r stupid too,do u think kut kukwela kwa fees ndikomwe kumakhozetsa ana? evn mukakweza feez nothing can happen tinali ku secondary konko nkumalipira xul fees yambiri mbiri koma maziphunzitsi osamagwira ntchito yawo,kodi boma simukufuna kukweza malipiro aanthu do u think kut mphunzitsi angalimbikire kuphunzitsa zake zisakuyenda? SHAME on u n ur fucken government leaders! inu mukadya bwino musamaone ngat kut onse adyanso zomwezo coz inu mukukwanitsa chifukwa choti muli kale ku mphikako komatibera ife nde mukufuna tibakulemeretsanibe? pa chakut panu muganize bwino bwino!!
Kasaila you are true a congress asakane kukweza fees nthawi yawo timalipira ife zikakuta timapereka nkhuku.
Akuopa chani poti ife tikalipira ku sukulu feteleza amakhala otchipa kopanda subsidy? Sakudziwa kuti zikatero nanu mulola universal subsidy pa fertiliser ndi building material?
Koma ngati mukweze fees osatsitsa fetereza ndi zipangizo zomangira nyumba ndiye bola maganizo a congress ndithu!

Only a savage who fails to win an argument starts to swear or throw stones at the opponent in protest. Instead of reasoning with the minister, you choose to protest and refuse to ask questions? So you refuse to use your brains? For whose benefit was the protest? This opposition is useless.
………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………..
Just recently, you have being outsmarted by the unsmart Jappi Mhango on the information bill. And have joined the rest of us in wonder as to what happened, yet you were right there in parliament? I cry for the days of old sometimes; when the opposition was mature and strong and tactful. “Section 65 no.1 budget no 2,” they could stand their ground! And you, while knowing that the current govt is deceitful and full of shameless cheats – the president, Goodall, Kasaira, Jappi Mhango, Dausi, Mwanamveka, Winiko e.t.c, you just sit there carelessly and discuss issues tactlessly believing you would table the information bill, anyway? At what point did you think you would discuss it when you were busy with arrests of late Msiska’s cantankerous hoodlums? At the end? How could nobody sense that something was amiss? Useless opposition!
…………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………
Just some few minutes ago you immaturely handled the racism issue with the stupid MPs starting it and their leader just watching n maybe clapping hands in his robes. And the party’s spokesperson saying the racist slurs were well deserved? But the leader having dilly-dallied; unwillingly and forcefully gives an apology which was clearly insincere?
…………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………
Are you sure that anybody with a sound mind n an honest heart would want to associate themselves with this kind of immature way of handling issues, protesting n stuff? Are you sure that anybody at full command of their brain would give you a benefit of a doubt with this tactless deliberations of issues in parliament? Rediscover yourselves guys! You have lost yourselves, big time!
…………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………
If I was a student/pupil at Secondary school. I would mobilise for a demo like the South African Universities “#FeesMustFall” demo that forced Zuma to cancel the hiek.
But Malawians are docile people.
Truth is that they know that Dr Fabiano will expose the uneducated opposition who just oppose for the sake of opposing. Bravo Fabiano. Fabs as we know him, has all the data to support his policy shift and the opposition knows this pretty well.
Its high time everyone start paying tax in Malawi. No free food to our presidents, ministers why should I pay tax yet others not?
MCP’s stand is tantamount to boycotting the topic. This is a very important subject for debate, and the opposition should take the government to task.
Everybody knows there is a serious economic and fiscal problem in this country. So, people will legitimately ask MCP: What is your solution? Are you bankrupt of ideas on this issue?
MCP is behaving like a bao player who has been outmaneuvered, and angonyanyala, kuima ndi kuchokapo mwamwano, ndikuphyisa pochoka (just pouts like a kid, gets up and leaves defeated.; sulking all the way home.)
This strategy by MCP is baffling, considering this Party is the oldest, and has most experienced politicians in its camp. The Party is certainly not advancing its position in 2019.
Kasaila your refferences are senseless.You are a useless leader of the house and most childship one to have saved on this position during the multiparty era.The likes of Chimunthu Banda and Henry Phoya were matured and sensibly controlled the procceedings in the house.How can you compare the current fees hike to the primary school fees during MCP rule?Does it make sense.Me thinks Not
When opposition MPs start protesting instead of debating to challenge the government by interrogating the numbers, just know that they have no facts to use.
A skilled opposition MP could have interrogated these numbers justifying why government should not have increased the fees and not just opposing and protesting.
Thus the caliber if our opposition MPs, not so helpful!
Please, the levels of poverty in our villages and townships can not support such moves we are about to take to raise school fees like this. Yes Government has no resources, but certainly not everything should end up punishing the poor Malawian. Why then were leaders put in those seats? My guess is as good as yours, to use their heads with a bit to reduce poverty rampant in this country. Ladies and Gentlemen in the Executive and Parliament, most parents in Malawi are peasant farmers with little middle managers most of whom in Govt. Do you how much a middle manager gets home at the end of the month? Investigate if you don’t know. Your three day allowances in Parliament is equal or more than a graduate’s salary in Govt. If such is the case with middle managers, primary school teachers get less than your one day allowance. So when we bulldose the reforms, lets not get into people’s lives that they should increasingly think they are deprived of their right to live life like you. In my view there are several areas you could consider to reduce Government spending. Reduce the cabinet further say to ten, reduce number of advisors to the president, reduce number of constituencies which essentially would reduce numebr of MPs. Reduce benefits awarded to MPs, Ministers, Presidency, PSs, Chief Executives in Public Institutions. Practically reduce immediatelly the number of PSs to cut expenditure. Reduce even the number of State Residences to cut state house expenditures etc. The state should also review legislations and conditions under which State Companies run their business for example at Escom and WaterBoards to maximise revenue. Strengthen business taxes, several businesses are run without permits or taxes. MRA should be strenthened with tax inspection missions. Issue of tax-free benefits for anybody drawing their benefits from Govt should end. I heard one day, one MP suggesting tax for President’s salary. Yes, eve the MPs buy some cars without duty, nooo, that should also stop. Let us all be partiotic to the mother Malawi!!!!!
Iwe Kasaila stop toking about the past we are tired. We want to focus on the future. Solutions and solutions osati zotinzana zala. Grow up
DPP mwanya nayo apa
It never rains but pours in Malawi for the poor. The rich’s child will get educated and the poor will remain ignorant for ever – grand father, father, son/daughter, grand child ——–
Bursaries follow political, regional, tribal, nepotistic and corrupt lines.
Fees must fall. I you want more money for better education, cut president, ministers and mps salaries and put in education. where will poor people get that kind of money in this tough economic situation? kupusape. Mwana wamutonga wakana vawuvumbwa vo

Fabiano is the worst fool the country has ever had.
very bad ,hope won’t cause a lot of problems,shouldn’t be the issues for students to give up school.
I will not comment today because I have taken Too much Cannabis Sativa
Why and how do you
Abolish jce exams in
Pvt schools where students
Pay too much fees ?,
Dpp is stupid gvt.
wo chakwera ndimwe wo chitsiru.you had me at first but looking at wat ur contributing now you seem to be another dander head who’s argument are political not constructive for the sake of national development taking into consideration of cost of living now k25000 for xool fees is way less as far standard of education is concerned. its highest time government re introduce fees in all gvt xool and hospital let’s all take part.even da bible states it clearly dat every man shall eat his sweat.enough is enough chizolowezi chawulele its killing us and turning us lazier each passing day all we know best is lamenting at its best
MCP should apologize for not accepting fees hike also.
They are condemned in everything now.
It is important to have a complete picture of the background to the school fees increase:
1. What is the share of education in the total Governent expenditure (both development spending and recurrent expenditure)?
2. What proportion of the cost of education is financed by cost recovery (fees and other funds paid by students’ parents/ guardians)?
3. What criteria will be used for scholarship/bursary awards?
Answers to these questions will highlight the extent to which Government gives priority to education compared to other expenditure items.
As a general rule, education is the future of the country? right now the trend is towards free education all the way to university. This means that many countries are re-examining the budgetary priorities in favour of education.
Point of corrections Mr Kasaila Malawi us poorer now than it was during HKB’s rule from 1964 to 1994 Google on UNDP per capita information and you will get the facts

KASAILA, WHEN MCP WAS IN POWER TO WHICH PARTY DID YOU BELONG TO? PEOPLE VOTED FOR CHANGE IN 1993 REFERENDUM AND 1994 MULTIPARTY BECAUSE THEY WERE NOT HAPPY WITH WHAT WAS HAPPENING IN ONE PARTY STATE. YOU ARE NOW A GOVERNMENT IN POWER WHAT ARE YOU GOING TO DO?
Fabiano, i think u are very stupid kodi bussary ukunena ya amphiwiyi kumalawi kuli anthu olemela kupatula zitsilu za ndale zakubazi? I wish this law does nt pass
Kasaila thinks we should not object what this government is doing just because former governments which were booted out of power were doing the same?
Fabiano please behave like an academic Ian and not politician. Can tell me religiously when poor souls accessed the so called bursary funds? Same on you!
Please, please government, what you are doing is complete killing. Where do you think people from village will get such amount of money. Reflect back, some of you will appreciate the plight of the people from the village. This is denying other citizens the right to education.
This funny,from a funny bunch of leaders.They have completely killed the economy,so now its time to raise the charge for everything.Malawians are struggling just for the day-day survival,and Kancer-ila that’s nothing as long as during MCP era people paid for their education.mmm my country!
Subsidize for 2 children per family, the rest azilipira okha. Why should certain families foot the bills of certain people who think its a breeding competition.
Amene asakufuna apite ku Private. To hell with Chakwera & MCP for not realising the importance of raising the School fees. Anthu tinkalipira fees ku Primary nthawi ya MCP, why not paying at Secondary School? Mind u there are lots of University Graduates in are our Secondary Schools who need good Salaries for them to be motivated. Don’t just oppose anything u fools!
Leader of the house, Mr Franscis Kasaila, should rethink his arguments.
He is saying during MCP government people were paying schools so MCP should not oppose, therefore I would conclude that because during MCP rule people were killed and ill treated therefore DPP government has a right to kill and ill treat people as it is doing.
Then let people pay exactly what was paid during MCP government,
Ine ndisaname MCP ikundibowa kwabasi! They have just turned into cry babies no wonder they will never rule Malawi again.

NO to salary hike. Don’t compare with Kamuzu the economy was vibrant and I paid K13.00 for tuition, boarding fee and general purpose fund. I paid K1.00 transport half fare( every student was given concession ticket by district education officer) from Kasungu to Mangochi secondary school. My father was a farmer and grew alot of maize by means of farmers club which was killed by udf with starter pack. u can’t compare with these days. Kasaila you are rubbish and not fit to be Minister you will fired soon.
