This is the story behind the Dubai women amateur scamming! You may recall the Blantyre hoax where we were made to believe that Malawi Police foiled a bank robbery in a fierce gunfire exchange.
All the five suspects were shot in the same area but we were told that they were treated as out patients! Nobody knows exactly how it ended.
Who will respond to such serious questions ? Good answers must be provided, unfortunately, we are under a government that thinks, behaves and resembles a mafia state.
However, on the other hand, this government is way below mafias because they are not smart, neither are they sophisticated. They are simply comedians! Should we call them a circus show? Perhaps they are just a circus.
God must rescue Malawi from the vultures of corruption. There is just too much government corruption and one wonders the criteria used to award the President for fighting corruption.
I think Malawians have been left behind in following how Malawi government is fighting corruption or those organizations giving awards to Chakwera on the same have been left behind on what is really happening in the ground,
I sometimes have problems with the perceptions of some organizations how they comment about African leadership, corruption and so forth.
Some western countries and organizations tend to want to show Africans that they understand affairs taking place in Africa much better than the Africans and owners of the land.
I believe this is always a deliberate move to shift the attention of the citizenry. How on earth would President Chakwera be commended for a better fight against corruption? In all fairness, this looks like another kind of corruption for leaders failure to fight corruption.
Looking critically at the scenes taking place, calling this government a theatre of comedians is not enough. They are habitual thieves, who steal from church collections, wedding, and funeral collections. They are looting everything standing in their way, from COVID-19 funds to AIP fertilizer program. From cyclone Freddy donations to ADMARC maize.
They will steal even “mafuwa a moto just for the love of theft.” They have been bewitched to steal anything all day everyday. There’s a great disadvantage when a political party stays out of power for to long, they become hungry hyenas who won’t stop stealing anything within their reach using their numbers.
Well put imagine MK187 billion in a year? Heartless people literally sharing money like mangoes ? Then why do we have to continue paying Tonse Alliance Government? We have to stop paying this none performing government because the incompetence is just too much.
Tonse Alliance Government is corrupt to the core. They are dangerously corrupt that everything is crumbling down to the ground and this country will come to a standstill.
Can you imagine this? In 2020/2021 growing season, Tonse Alliance Government pretended there was network challenges. Poor farmers struggled to access Agricultural Inputs Program (AIP) and the majority of people didn’t access the items.
The second time was in 2021/2022 growing season, government pretended that the computers were showing that farmers had already taken fertilizer when they didn’t. This was the second slap in the face of the citizens of this country.
The third time was in 2022/2023 growing season, when Tonse Alliance Government, without any shame, claimed that the money for AIP was paid to the wrong suppliers and ended up in a butchery in the UK.
Finally and at the present moment in 2023/2024 growing season, wrong suppliers who happen to be a pharmacy, a company that doesn’t manufacture nor deal in fertilizer business had been dubiously contacted by government, without following procurement procedures, to supply 600 000 metric tons of fertilizer to Malawi. Isn’t this enough insult and injury to the people of Malawi?
Chakwera’s Tonse Alliance government cannot make the same blunder in a row of for years concurrently. This is a well calculated move by government to steal and make this nation look mercilessly stupid and poor like fools.
But why of all the things they decided to play with food security? That’s where a lot of money is spent. I think leadership is seriously at stake here.
Unfortunately, most of the human rights groups have gone to bed when Malawians are on the verge of dying of curable disease and man-made hunger. What’s wrong with our human rights activists? Many of them are corrupt too ! So they choose to keep quiet and do nothing.
