…un recruited doctors run away from Malawi
Just when the Malawi leader keeps making promises of putting his heart on the welfare of Malawians, President Peter Mutharika’s government has found itself in yet another mess.
This time around, its the health sector.
Fresh reports that Malawi24 has been following show that trained medical doctors whose anger seems not to have shaken government for not being recruited are reported fleeing to fetch for greener pastures outside the country.
This comes months after government denied to recruit over 100 doctors trained across the country.
Information says after some medics landed lucrative jobs in Lesotho, a multitude of others followed the same footprints.
Local reports say that this has irked the Medical Doctors in Malawi whose President, Douglas Lungu has railed at government for letting the doctors fetch jobs outside Malawi instead of helping the citizens of this country.
Lungu who led others recently in pushing government to rope in the graduates feels that it is a wastage of resources to train people who the same government can not employ at all.
Activists including vocal Martha Kwataine have all since railed at the Mutharika led government for failing in regards to the matter.
Approximately this means government lost over MK 500 million to train the 21 doctors who are having flamboyant job offers outside Malawi.
Some of the doctors wrote to Malawi24 that they are working in very big private hospitals and that they have been treated so well and are receiving propelling salaries.
At the moment, there remains a big likelihood that more doctors even those serving in hospitals in Malawi may also join their colleagues.
Some of the woes doctors in Malawi complain about are low pays, lack of incentives and delayed pays.

We’re reaping what we sow. We voted them into power but we didn’t follow them up, we trusted them. It’s time that we love our country by being honest and doing what is right.
Relation should be shovelled out to avoid shielding of our blood relations who are in the driving wheel.
We hv been importing expertise, its time to export… am happy now.

succefu failure
What shud d president do ? Dont u kno dat Malawi has no money due to sabotage of donors due to cashgate during pp government ? Now dis government has introduced taxes to cover for the 40% donors pulled out BUT still complaining ? Takonzanitu dziko liyende bwino inuyo odziwanu
cashgate started long time back before pp & jb government. don’t waste your precious time backing this old man apm. he is a failure. just think back whem he held the education ministry. he failed so solve the chanco issue, how can the same man solve country issues!!! this old man is not sofisticated.
I agree with you if we run away from the truth but if we face the reality of the truth and be honest castigate didn’t start here, PP. Why is B. Muluzi being taken to court?
Let’s be honest as Malawians if we want to develop. We separate running a country with relation.
@carlos. Kodi manyi a mwezi watha ndi alero amanunkha ndi ati ? Im not backng any1 but am presentng facts. Malawians have a tendency of blamng leaders instead of takng a pro active role in developng dis country. Indeed, freedom of expression and democracy has ruined dis country hence citizens just make empty noise.
apange resign uwone momwe dziko likomzedwere.

Mr Monty, the economy was first plundered by the dpp gvt. Every malawian knows this fact, or have you just returned from Vanuatu?-that is if you know where it is. Pse this is your country, learn to love it.

If the govt is failing to buy drugs in hospitals why shud they recruit doctors? Just to flower the hospitals?

Keep it up doctors, they thought they have done with you. Pali mwambi woti mukazi amanyasa ukamukwata. Sindimaliza
mutharika is a very good manipulator, selfcentred arrogant and non-compassionate towards the colapsing of our economy. He doesn’t listen to anybody’s advice.He is not good for our country.maybe he should try to apply for some vacancies in the United states suitable for what he studied for.fokofuuuuuuu!
