I think this whole issue should be put on hold until malawi gets leaders that are willing to lead and spend every single penny the country has on improving the lives of its people we all saw what happened with kayelekela im sure now there is less urenium there than there was before but what can the people of malawi show for its list resource nothing other than craters left behind. Look if we find oil and there is proper leadership then sure lets drill and build our country but with the leaders we have its better if the oil… Read more »

I will pay for the assassination of Mutharika the first day the oil starts bleeding from the lake. I may also fight with the Tanzanians.

That is going to be the down fall of Peter A. Mutharika, We can not allow this to happen, we will fight tooth and nail. If he wants to see Malawi burning he can go a head paja ndi nkhutukumve

The plan to drill oil in lake Malawi should go ahead. The lake is wholly Malawian.No any country has a legal claim to it apart from my beloved mother land Malawi.
The soils under the lake could never be shared much as we share the water to good neighbours.
The oil is our wealth. period.

I totally AGREE with Winston Msowoya above comments.No Oil exploration or Gas on Lake Malawi.These Exploration oil projects will only Benefit Politicians who are ruling right now while the Poor Malawians remain and die in Poverty.For the good of the country,lets continue living the way we are rather than destroying the lake Malawi natural resources and enreaching the Greedy Politician of today.If whites were part of Malawian citizens the way South Africa is;the better bcoz they could use the proceeds nicely to develop the country like South Africa,but Munthu wakuda ngati ine, Mayo !!!! mayo!!! mayo !!!! ine.He cannot be… Read more »

this issue is of national interest ,thus it should be put to a referendum.if the masses say they either want it or not,they will,either way,have themselves to blame.as to which country owns the lake,the answer remains:”lake malawi”belongs to the republic of malawi.unlike lake nyassa-which i actually don’t know-that might as well be tanzanian.unfortunately,i am not that blind to see it on any map!we need those $(dollars) rolling in into malawi to completely remove this name:”the poorest country”.it sucks!!

Personally,Iam convinced that Peter Muthalika is not vehement enough to deal with the country’s odious economic and political inclination.He knows pretty well that his plans on oil rigging from Lake Nyasa,won’t benefit the overwhelming majority of our suffering people and knows pretty well that as soon as the RIGS are dropped into the Lake Nyasa,that spellsout our normal human life including marine life.I remember very well 5 years ago when the rig in the gulf of Mexico broke-down,and the oil spill was spread morethan 60 KM radious that took 5 months to clear the oil from the water despite using… Read more »
