  1. Thats Peter I know amalimbana ndi zazii zoti zilibe phindu . Akanakhala wanzeru ma reshuffle amenewo akanakhala a ma minister.
    Mpaka lero ku education kulibe Minister zikakhala za chimangazo nde mukuziwa kale

  2. I cannot believe this. Botolo as ST? Does he understand anything in finance? This is what we call misallocation of resources. But not surprising when you have a clueless appointing authority. This is one reason this country has not progressed well because we always put politics ahead of anything when appointing people in positions of influence.

  3. THE TRUTH OF THE MATTER IS THAT RONALD MANGANI WAS A NO NONSENSE PS AT TREASURY. DPP IS REPOSITIONING ITSELF WITH THE YES, YES CHARACTERS SO THAT IS CAN STEAL MONEY AHEAD OF 2019 ELECTIONS!

    MBAVA IZI SIZIMALAA!!!

  4. I wonder what wrong Ronald Mangani has done? He was trying to instill discipline in wayward controlling officers. But then this is what happens to competent officers. Perhaps I don’t know much

      1. What about this useless Kabambe at Foreign Affairs? Is it because blood is thicker than water? Once Chaponda goes then Kabambe will have no support. No wonder recalls in Foreign Service has targeted certain section of Malawi because of Kabambe n his uncle maizegate in chief.
