After the opposition left, did a quorum of MPs remain to legally pass the bill? If there was no quorum then the bill cannot become law.

That is the problem with Malawi, everyone believes in blackmail.

Did the opposition not know the rules?

I understand they also walked out of the infamous MK577 billion after hearing what they did not want to hear.

You can not pick and choose what rules to respect and cry foul later.

This country has too many fools in high positions masquerading as leaders.

I know for a fact you will be crying rigging when DPP wins in 2019, because of this kind of stupidity.

But when you look at the situation on the ground you discover that those who voted unwisely are the ones who suffer in mass. Take the Nsanje situation, nobody in Nsanje voted MCP so the question is not who wins the election. The question is who suffers for this stupidity.

That is what democracy is, you go by the majority whether that majority is misinformed or not. Are you not following what is happening in the UK? very few people are happy about leaving the EU, but have no choice because it was democratically decided upon.

Whether individuals suffer or not has nothing to do with anything. You can not single out areas that voted for MCP and feel sorry for them, democracy does not work that way.

As long as the opposition’s hands are clean regarding that part of the bill then their conscious is clear

Their hands can not be clean, they caused the problem. What were they walking out from? Opposition is in majority in parliament. They are capable of defeating any motion, so why walk out rather than force a vote.

Why do Malawians excuse bad behaviour.
