As Speaker Gotani Hara shameless curtailed House before unfinished business on banking bill….
By Burnett Munthali
It is exciting when government decides to run away from opposition. That’s a sign of defeat.
Someone is definitely going to pay the price when government runs away from opposition during very important deliberations in the august House. A real government stands firm in the legislature because that’s where its focus and seriousness can be seen.
A fake government does not have a clear direction to take and is always lost in the middle of serious business.
For the first time, Malawians saw cabinet ministers and members of Parliament from government side running away from the August House.
Malawi Parliament is expected to rise today Friday 17 December 2022 after deliberating the 47th session.
What is the Malawi Congress Party (MCP) afraid of? The MCP government failed to complete the Banking Amendment Bill on Thursdays 16 December2022 and said the bill would be completed on Friday 17 December after the committee stages have been finalised.
However, MCP brought a mew ruling which would discuss Press Trust contrary to what the opposition expected.
This did not ho well when Democratic Progressive Party (DPP), UTM, United Democratic Front (UDF) including Independent insisted that the banking law should be abolished.
MCP cabinet ministers who are suspected of corruption sneaked out of Parliament before sine and die.
We can say that government is after swindling Thom Mpinganjira’s FDH bank.
It is a well known fact that some cabinet ministers in the Chakwera government are interested in this bank in question.
Malawi Congress Party is here by warned to tread carefully when stealing from Malawians and the citizens of this country will not allow to go back to the dark old days.
