I couldn’t care less about your sponsorship for social football. All I need is a good mobile service. So TNM get your effing fingers out and fix the flipping service in Lilongwe. Call dropping, can you hear me? Is the order of the day. Stop pissing about. It’s gone on for too long. You have taken us back to 1997 and you haven’t even released a statement that you are doing something about it. Shame on you TNM.
