Am extremely conviced to the best of my knowledge that malawi runs on herself without a leader(s)
We had a professional civil service during the one party dictatorship, This has now turned into a tribal circus for obvious reasons-theft and plunder of public resources for clan gain. Unless we re-establish a professional civil service, it is hard to see a turn around our national fortunes.

Even when our chosen leaders stray, instead of criticising them for their wrongs, we have opted to bury our heads in the sand and treat everything as “business as usual”. We are all human beings and as they say “to err… Read more »
