Get facts right: Zomba was declared a capital in 1891, a township in 1900, A planning area in 1955, a municipality in 1979 and a City by Bingu wa Mutharika on 9th March 2008. The first city in Malawi was Blantye in 1966, then Lilongwe in 1975. Note: A capital is not always a City.

There is sense in what hon Kainja says its only that most of us these days we are good in defending of leaders even if our leaders have goofed in making decisions. If the state house leaks how was the former president occupying the same house. Zomba have been stripped off most of its offices: capital, parliament, govt. print just to mention a few I think 2morrow it will be Zomba Maximum prison . Zomba needs developments. stop politicizing

It would be great if the Government would indeed convert the State House in Zomba into a health facility.

A country with such a small geographical area has no need to have so many State Houses. Each State residence costs tax payers money; money which could be properly utilized for the welfare of the nation. The whole configuration of State Houses should be evaluated on a cost-benefit basis.

Malawians get your history right: Lilongwe is the first Capital City of Malawi and not Zomba. Zomba was just a mere colonial town when it was Malawi’s capital up to 1975. It was Bingu who declared Zomba a city in 2000s. The first town to be declared a city in Malawi is Blantyre/Limbe in 1966 followed by Lilongwe in 1975 and Mzuzu in 1987. So if Zomba has progressed from being a town to a city is that not development?

I beg to differ on that, Zomba was a colonial administrative center and until 1975 it was the FIRST capital city of Nyasaland. Perhaps you meant to say that Lilongwe was FIRST capital city in the newly christened MALAWI as opposed to Nyasaland.

Reply to  Judge Judy

judge judy can may be help answer this questions: 1. Which Nyasaland governor declared Zomba a city and in what year? 2. How come Blantyre/Limbe by far the biggest towns then were not declared cities until 1966? What happened?

I don’t understand why when a president spends night any where can be development,infact this would be over expenditure considering our current economic situation.
