Mulanje South member of Parliament (MP) Elias Bon Kalindo is ready to lead a march of naked protestors ( #NakedProtestMalawi )...
zaka 31 zikwana tili mu democracy koma kumbali ya chitukuko sizinayende, chabwino chomwe chabwera ndi ufulu wamalankhulidwe basi. Democracy yabweletsa umphwawi pa anthu.
Please forgive me if I refrain from contributing to the discourse of negativity. We have an obvious problem and an obvious solution. Under the present dispensation, constituencies send MPs to Parliament to represent the interests of their parties, not the interests of the constituents who elected them.

Then shaken with arrests and resultant inconveniences (on her VISA applications and stuff). Now her voice is gone. Likewise, Henry Kachaje. . . .
