State House disputes 360% State Residences’ budget hike report

LILONGWE-(MaraviPost)-Malawi State House has described as false information the media reports suggesting that wages for workers at state residences have been increased by 360% as reported by the Nations newspaper today, the 25th March 2024.

According to the Presidential Press Secretary Antony Kasunda, State House has since supplied The Nation newspaper with correct data to ensure that it provides readers with a true picture reflecting the figures in the 2024/2025 national budget.

Kasunda further assured Malawians that President Lazarus Chakwera, remains committed to giving media outlets and the public accurate information as a matter of principle.

Malawi Parliament is yet to pass the 2024/2025 which is pegged at MK5.85 trillion.
