“Donors must not resume aid to Malawi!” Malawi Congress Party President Lazarus Chakwera has asked donors not to resume aid to Malawi saying President Peter Mutharika is not trustworthy and that the DPP administration will only cashgate the aid funds which will then leave the country in deeper financial turmoil.

Chakwera, who is also leader of opposition in Parliament, advised donors to continue supporting the country through kind by working with NGOs.

Chakwera: Donors must not resume aid

“I would like to appeal to our donors to consider most of the help to be in kind and not cash which is prone to abuse because this Government lacks fiscal discipline” Chakwera issued the advice despite acknowledging that “external shocks have exacerbated the country’s current economic instability”.

He made remarks yesterday in his response to the speech that President Peter Mutharika made when he presided over the opening of 46th session of Parliament.

Mutharika despite proclaiming during his speech that ‘the age of donor aid is over for Malawi’, urged donors to resume aid saying “Malawi was at a very critical stage without direct budgetary support”. Donors suspended aid in September 2013 because of the cashgate scandal that saw over K24 billion of public funds looted by government and Joyce Banda’s Peoples Party officials within six month from April 2013. In addition, auditing by PwC conducted with support from the Germany government found about K553 billion was uncounted for during the 2 years that Madame Joyce Banda was president. Mutharika said without aid, Malawi was at the blink of obliteration.

But despite aid cut leaving millions of poor Malawians in destitute, Chakwera stated that the current regime is also not trustworthy.

“The President repeatedly claimed that the age of donor aid is over despite repeatedly complaining about the lack of direct budget support and repeatedly acknowledging the impact of the aid our development partners are giving through other channels in the country. What is over is not the age of donor aid, but the age of donor aid being given to people who cannot be trusted.”

Chakwera said it was because of this that President Mutharika failed to make a comprehensive case for donors to resume direct budgetary support in his speech.

“This President has given our development partners no confidence that he can cut down spending, or balance the budget, or get rid of waste, or crack down on criminal acts of greed and corruption perpetrated in the government of his own party. That is why he could not make a case for direct budgetary support” said the MCP leader.

  12. Don`t Get Chakwera Wrong. Enanu Mumadziona Ngati Anzeru Muli Opusa. Osamathamangira kuyankha Nkhani Zakuti Simukuzimvetsa. Mbuli.mukumvetsa

  24. i dont understand why people dont understand Dr. Chakwera’s sentiments. kodi ndi umbuli okanika kupeza tantauzo kapena ufiti. mwachidule a Chakwera sakuwauze ma donors kuti asathandize,koma akuti athandize kuzera ku ma NGO’s. Vuto la amalawife ndichani. Kukonda kumuyika munthu mawu mkamwa, thats not fair. By the way DPP opted for zero aid budget, so what is the essence of calling for donor support when you made the decision to go for ZAB. inutu yindetsani dziko popnda thandizo monga mmene munakonzera mu budget. dont blame innocent people for your problems.

  25. dont know who is fooling who here but if its true…..A Chakwera sakuganiza ngati a patriot it means sangatithandize komanso ngati a 24 mukunama nde simuli serious…he shld sue you

  28. And I’ve everyday calling well wishers in US, UK etc for assistance. Politics is really crude. Even pastors stop thinking about the sheep. You think if aid is withdrawn PM will be affected personally? Zaziiiiiii. You don’t pull others down for you to be on top. Support them and show them yoyr capabilities and they will willingly bow down

Today it’s my birthday. I turn 59 years old. I was born on 11 November 1956 at Ndola Central Hospital. I grew up in Kitwe an went to school there. During compulsory military service I was selected to go the University o Zambia. After graduating with a LL.B. in 1981 from University of Zambia, I worked in various places including ZCCM, Barclays Bank and later joined the law firm Andre Masiye and Company in Lusaka. But this day will also be remembered as the day we buried our late President( 11th November 2014), the fifth President of the Republic of Zambia and our patriarch as the Patriotic Front, Mr. Michael Chilufya Sata (MHSRP). Our country is going through some challenges regarding issues of power, issues of food prices, issues of exchange rates, issues of unemployment and other difficulties facing the nation and our young people. But the Lord, our God will see us through. We pray for wisdom and knowledge from our God because we shall overcome. “The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom.” Psalm 111:10.

  38. No, they must resume it if there is a chance and promise of donors that they can resume giving funds to Malawi, let them do so because this country belong to poor Malawian not to one person or a party no, donors go a head but put some hard rules to be followed, if they break it punish them especially these leaders who are fond of money hungry.

  41. Wake up malawi! Do not just wait to oppose the truth on political grounds.Mr chakwera is very right in his statement! Indirect aid will enhance trust to the doners unlike giving aid to the government which can end up being in the pockets of these greedy politicians.It calls upon the wise people to understand the statement by Mr Chakwera.Malawians especially people from the south can not appreciate this.They are blind folded by this DPP regime, shame! Try to learn to accept and honer the facts on the ground. Do not just oppose.What is the problem with you?

  42. Kamuzu Banda ruled a dead nation and I don’t think we have changed any better. How do we explain our stupid silence when over 500 billion has been stolen? The current generation of politicians and the citizenary has failed mother Malawi Please let’s teach our children to speak up and demand what is due to them. Forget about the donors , they have been here for 51 yrs and absolute poverty is still haunting us. All we need is a mindset change and cultural transformation .Let’s invest in masses by giving them proper education and also create an enabling environment for the same

  45. the sanctions are illigal they must remove them now i always wondor why donors work with opposition parties .Nzovetsa chisoni ndi manyazi kumva kuti msogoleli wosusa boma akuima pa chulu ndikumauza ma donors kuti asathandize dziko lake . Zomwe akupanga a Chakwela zikufanana ndi zomwe adachita osusa boma wa ku Zimbabwe a Morgan Tsvangirai and it worked for him but who suffered？A simple answer ,people including his supporters and where is he now？Anthu atazindikila kuti akuvutika chifukwa cha opposition parties they rallied behind president Mugabe . President Mugabe is now popular than before chifukwa anthu anazindikila kuti opposition is always sponsored by western donors to fulfil their ambitions. Mr Chakwela must guard his tongue and he must also wait until 2019 if he wants to rule Malawi.

  51. A Malawi Mukamawelenga Nkhani Mudzimvetsa Bwinobwino,Apa A Chakwera Sakuletsa Ma Donors Kuthandiza Amalawi Ayi,Koma Akuwaletsa Ma Donors Kuthandiza Amalawi Kudzela Ku Boma Iwo Chomwe Akufuna Ndichoti Ma Donors Apitilize Kuthandiza A Malawi Kudzela Mma NGOs Monga Momwe Akuchitilamu,Osati Zomwe Mukuganiza Enanu, Owo!!

  103. I like what Joseph Okondedwa Nyankalwa has said.The cash gaters MUST be arrested first then the donors will come back.(k577 billion rooters must be behind bars).

  104. Ai synet, don’t just generalise southerners, olemba pa fb sachokera chigao chimodzi. So any comment surporting anyone in or out of goverment, can’t be determined where it realy comes from. That’s part of disclimination against race or place of origin, which is totaly wrong.

  108. That is the worse action taken by a leader, if there are issues try to solve them you as a leader but don’t stop help from reaching out to those in need because you are not being affected by it directly.

  113. koma tamamvani akuluakulu mukutichititsa manyazi apa chakwela akuti ndalama zadoner zizipita kumabungwe osati kupatsaso boma chifukwa boma likuononga kwambiri cashgate

    1. will government not misappropriate such kind donations? (Your suggestion is as if there is no evidence of non-cash donations are not abused, e.g. subsidy. The solution is to empower the monitoring weapons, making all information as public as possible and improving on checks.

    3. I have explained in my previous explanation. Rasta, you need to reflect on your claims. The same measures used to track non-cash aid must be put in place to track the cash aid. You are not coming up with a solution to addressing the problem here. Non-cash aid can also grow wings.

  133. He didn’t advise donors against aid.He said they should consider doing it in kind and not in cash since we have demonstrated as a nation that we misuse cash.Eish…very poor headline

    1. and was that not advising donors to continue with aid suspension since the aid being talked about here is the direct budgetary support. The problem is that when you want to support and defend someone regardless of what, you overlook the real things.

    3. Yes! There is more to their suspension of aid than the cashgate; most of these countries were looking for a reason to suspend aid, we gave them cashgate. For the past, they would suspend aid during one regime and resume it in another. But what is the progress on IFMIS so far? I would urge them to resume direct budgetary support and demand a strong accountability, checks and making public the information on how much is being spent where and why; so the general public is aware. How the people use that information will be up to them.

    4. That’s a great idea.We always have great solutions.Always fail in the implementation. But knowing this government fully well…do u really truly believe that can happen?

    5. With pressure and conditions, yes it can! We need a progressive pressure not emotive or punitive answers that will continue to leave millions of Malawians in destitute. Our love for our people must come first

  135. Even If i were Chakwera I would also ban the donors bcause for so many years we have received trillions of donations and on all these donations who benefits?Only politicians yet so many people are starving they don’t care they only feed them with promises.We want government not thieves.Mtharika is behaving like a leader of gangstars,

  137. donors stopped supporting Malawi budgets because of kusolola. And now Chakwera is asking the same donors to resume aid by directly funding projects. Mwachitsanzo: ngati m’bajeti munali programme yomanga chipatala, ma donors angotimangira chipatalacho nkutipatsa… osati apereke ndalamazo ku boma kuti limangire chipatala ayi. Apa a Chakwera aonetsa kukhwima maganizo… akuwapemphera a Malawi thandizo loti lisabedwe! Malawi24, shame on you…. what journalism is this?

    1. Nde madonors akamanga chipatalacho mankhwala ndi madotolo aikamo ndani? Koma mumadziwa momwe boma limayendera kapena mukungoyankhula ndale za Facebook?

    2. kumvetsetsa nkhani ili apayi ndikudziwa kuti boma limayenda bwanji ndi zinthu ziwiri zosiyana ndipo sizitengera kudziwa kapena kusadziwa kuti boma limayenda bwanji kuti umvetse chomene amatanthauza a Chakwera.

    4. pamenepa titsegule maso si freedom kuvomera zimenezo…muthu oganiza akati aganize bwino america siimathandiza koma koononga ndichani chomwe tingaloze kuti ichi chikuchokera ku boma la amerika/britain koma pamapeto pake sanati charge[sanapeze cholowamo}nanga kodi zatipindulila long term or short ngakhale pali pa facebook komabe siananga kuyakhula ndi bwino paja amati muvi oyang’anila suumachedwatu ….pa twiter american president amadandaula za kusitha kwanyengo ku america ko which is to say they r in great trouble nde o akufunaso ife tifanane ,,,ma sink hole {zimayenje zozama zikongo pezeka mwalo mosaembezekereka zikupha athu kuwameza koma khanizimezi pena samaziika pa news y? ,,,dzuka malawi

    5. Sono galimoto lawo lomwa mafuta ngati chidakwa lija Msowoya anawapatsa mafuta ake akatenga ku ma NGO komweko?. Kutha mzerutu uku a busa!

    6. Mukulira chifukwa ndi chkwera? Mmayesa mumadekerera news ikamutwnga apm. Pano uyu akupempha madonor kuti madonor ndalama zipitirire kudzera kuma NGO nanga manurse ndi aphunzitsi asakulembedwawa awalemba ndimaNGO wo? Is that sesani, chawinga and Banda r including chakwera r thinking? Then w hav the worst opposition in chakwera.

    7. if you did not understand the statement, visit MCP website and read the statement… it’s straight forward and self explanatory.

  141. Mbuli sizinamve chizungu,Chakwera sananene kuti madonors asathandize malawi.Funsani ova chizungu akutandauzireni.Kulephera kwa peter mukupaka Chakwera tsopano,zautsiru.

  143. Nanga ubusa uli pati apa? Dzikoli lilindi azibusa oipa mtima koma uyu nde eeee ayi. Nde akuganiza kuiti nzakeyu ndalama azitenga kuti zopangila chitukuko? Koma chakwera ayi ndithu. Wachita bwino kuziwonesa mawanga ako 2019 isanakwane. Umavala chipewa lero takudziwa.

  145. Koma Achakwela Ma #NGO Akuwadziwa Bwinobwino? Ngati Kuli Kuba Ndiye Ndiku Ma Ngo,zinazi Osamangotsutsa Popeza Ndinu A Oposition ,ndakwiyananu Achakwela Ndayamba Kutaya Nanu Chikhulupililo,

  149. inu iwalani zolamulira dziko coz munthu amene ali ndi mzeru zofuna kuthandidza mtundu wa amalawi sangalankhule mau opusa ngati amenewo kwa madonors umunthu ulibe mwaiwe.kodi madonor analeka kuthandidza dzikoli akuvutika ndi muthalika?penapake ukamafuna kulankhula uziyamba waganidza zikuchita kuonetsera kuti mwa iwe utsogoleri koma kaduka,mkhwidzi,nsanje ndi bomali koma dziwa kuti udzachokeramo osalaulira dzikoli ngati tembo

  155. Chakwera z jst a big fool, panya pake galu ameneyu, olo Peter atapanga resign, iyebe ali kutali ndi u president adikile 2019 MCP izakhala N.o3 pachisankho

  157. Ithink u are very stupid..U think if we dont recieve aid Mutharica will suffer??..This is why Mcp can not rule malawi..u guys inthat camp are too childish and foolish who are busy playing with our lives…..Pa mawu okhawo Ndiwe otembereredwa heavy….azigogo akusamba opanda sopo mmidzimu yet coz of hight cost of living brought in by absence of donor support….and instead of u idiot advocating for unity of purpose like ur fellow opposition leaders in other countries do…u r busy turnishing the image of malawi and that include abale ako omwe analuvotera uko ku central regio Iwe ndi mbuzi ndithu and u deserve to rot in opposition for the rest of ur life….nosense…By the way do u know hw the gvt operates?If we dont recieve cash hw do u expect the gvt to implement PWP,,,and other crucial areas….Nyasi za munthu …!!!

  164. Chakwerayu ndi kanyimbi guyz&he will be on opposition side in all days of lyf believe me coz munthu osagonja ngati uyu sindinamuone Mxiiiiiiiii

    2. Why are you twisting the story here? Chakwera has simply reiterated that it’s better cash donations go through ngos because this government is not trustworthy with money, it’s easy for the donors to monitor progress while working with various organizations than government, I know the bureaucracy that happens In government for a development project to roll out, Chakwera is very right

    3. Pearson X. Nkhoma am deeply concerned with your behaviour….while we are strategizing for next election, you are busy pulling Chakwera down…As long as I appreciate the freedom to critique, this won’t help improve the situation…If you are an advisor to Dr. Laz, you have to find a place where to voice your concern to him or the executive committee members…I understand that you don’t want to be a bootlicker, but this does not mean that you have to wear a brave face and attack him… Wise One from the East, mulipo akulu? Mwina Wise One from the East ndi Pearson?

    4. Anvil Solar Power What have I twisted? Does saying continue working with NGO not mean don’t give us any direct budgetary support? If A = B; and C = B therefore A = C, so if Chakwera says this government is not worthy being trusted with direct donor aid, that it should not be given the cash, does that not mean: Please donors, don’t give us aid (through this government), isnt that punishing malawians who benefit through direct budgetary support; the budget is a strategy that outlines what is planned including social protection services; yet Chakwera does not want this in the budget (since he does not want it be supported from donors). He believes in NGOs, i am sure Chakwera doesnt know how NGOs operate and that they are confined by catchment areas.

    5. NGO’s are not angels. 70% of all funds received tends to stay there with only 30% (if lucky) getting to the people who need it. The faith some have in NGO’s to ‘effectively’ execute development projects is grossly misplaced.

      I think 15-20% are effective, the rest are lifestyle support systems.

    7. Malonje Mdekanjiba Phiri I no longer support any party in Malawi; I have tried with all, from AFORD, PPM, MCP, UDF (I was fired for writing an article that urged Muluzi not to bounce back), DPP, PP and then MCP again, but I have come to one conclusion: Zonsenzi ndi zachabechabe. I am a free person and it is this freedom that I exercise here. You will notice that I even love Chakwera than all the others hence my advice. And also, who watches over the watchman? The Opposition are not demigods to avoid being told the truth kuti they are just a bunch of useless lot

    8. Mwai Kasamale Well said Mwai. And it is surprising that Chakwera should advise donors to work with NGOs. How much did Malawians realy benefited from the flooding support that was channeled through these NGOs. We heard that young girls and women were being sexually abused for aid by these aid workers. Chakwera sees them as a solution; some of us demand proper accountability etc coz without this, NGOs and Government are just the same side of the coin.

  169. Ngati ndi zoona kuti Chakwera walesa ma donors kupeleka ndalama Ku Malawi wachita bwino cz ndalamazo muba, komanso ndiye kuti Chakwera ndi amene akilamulira eeeeeeee koma Chakwera taona DPP sikugona tulo ndi iwe ulemu upite kwa baba John Tembo potipasa inu kuti mutisogolele

  170. Ha ha haha Chakwera,Who z going to suffer?Mind u Mutharika&his friends will not be affected but we the tax payers,Evn u .Kodi zomwe unkatilonjeza za clean politics zija ndizimenezi?We hve lost trust in u Lazaro&What kind of Rev.are you?Tiye nazoni 2019 sikale tidzakuyankhani.

  171. Do not cause Malawi to be poor by making her a donor dependent its not right teach your pple to work hard and must be able to work and produce .They must work instead of asking as if they are on wheel chairs these people are able bodied

  175. Dziwani ichi kumuuza donor kuti akupatseni thandizo kudzera kumabungwe mawa mudzavutikana naye kuti adzakupatseni ngati mutadzalowa m’boma munthu wamulungu lingalirani kuti simungapange mapulani ndindalama zanthumba mwawina tikumvani chidzadziwa mchipande.

Don’t think like you are a foreigner. For your information’ am not after chakwera but am against his selfish politics. Take care pali anthu a mapepala awo pano. Calling me chisili’ had u known

  179. malawian politicians subotaging own country/people…he thinks thats punishing mutharika…bt no you are killing poor malawians as whole…some NGOs and opposition politicians started this in Bingus time..badmouthing to donors abt their own country, nw luk where we are…come on its not the sitting presdent u r punishing, bt poor malawians

  198. instead of introducing strategies that can help poor malawians mr chakwera is busy fighting against the government…..being an opposition leader it doesnt mean that you are an enemy to the government hence opposing everything, no no nooo u can stil take part in developing the nation

  199. A Chakwera mulibe nzeru though i dont support any political party koma apa mwaonesa kut ngakhale mutatenga boma simungatithandize.

  202. I support my president Chakwera coz nothing will change even if we will be given the heap of billion unless they use NGO coz these NGOs are mercyfull unlike those selfish rullers

  203. It is sad and pathetic that after 51 of indipendence, Malawians are failing to understand this simple and straight forward english statement ” Aid in kind and in cash” Health sector is already recieving malaria drugs through Aid in kind, pliz go back to school!!

  204. He has da art of opposing indeed. Lets think ahead..if given power to run the country , do u think u will b able kumususa munthuyu. azikasusa everythin awa. we argue from experience upresident amauziwa awa?????….

  205. Chakwera you are nothing for now let the ruling party do there job, bkoz your party failed to win so jst wait fo the campain in next years thn u can make noizy

  207. Apa nde ndaona kuti anthu ambiri samva chizungu makamaka ma supporter a dpp mbuli zenizeni. Munthu wanena kuti ma donors asiye kuthandiza a malawi thru boma koma ma NGOs. Apanso ndaona kuti three quarters ya anzathu akumwera kumene kuli ma supporter ambiri a dpp samva chizungu komanso inu mukuziwa kuti ma donors anasiya kale kuthandiza boma chifukwa chani ma comment akunyoza chakwera ngati ndi amene anapangitsa ma donors to withdraw their aid. President wanuyu ndi amene akulephera to convince donors to come back, after all donors believe that peter mutharika also benefitted from cashgate thats why he is not interested in the auditing of 557 billion bcoz he knows that he will also be implicated.

    1. You mean ma NGO’S ali 100% kuti angagwiritse bwino tchito chithandizocho? apa nkhani ndiyakuti ndife osauka thats y tikapeza mwawi timayiwala anzanthu as u said about cashgate idakhudza even opostion mp eg A BELEKANYAMA nkhani ndiyakuti timange malawi posatengela chipani kodi masapota azipanizi si ifetomwe amalawi tikatengela chipani malawi wil never develop

    4. Thank you Mr Cliff ur comment is very reconcilliatory u dint attack me while i attacked some party supporters. This what we call gud reasoning. The problem with us malawians is normally we attack each other instead of attacking someones facts. It starts from the leaders and treks down to the supporters.

    5. Refering to what chakwera said, i hop every malawian knows that donors pulled out 2 yrs ago even before chakwera was leader of opposition so we cant blame chakwera for whatever donors are doing but its the respomsibility of the current administration to bring donors back, you donors hav pulled out several times so they always come back if they are convinced. I dont know why they are not coming back now may be they see something that we dont see.

    7. Ma ngos ake mwina itakhala mipingo osati za achina Trapence and the like. Komanso donors are clever they cant just give them the money there be will terms and conditions. Ku boma nde ayi we better stay without aid. Komanso kuma NGOs nzotheka bola ma auditors akhale pafupi.

    8. Mr chawinga mwandiseketsa, palibe munthu yemwe akhamve chizungu koma inu mumamva chizungu, ai ndithu ndinu odala, koma ambirife timamva chingerezi osati chizungu

    9. osamva chingelezi ndiwe chawinga. chakwera said no donor aid to GVT but to NGO . Chawinga do u trust these NGOs? can NGO look into the welfare of poor people? if so why is it that him(chakwera) is crying for the position of president of MALAWI and not president of some NGOs here in malawi after all si iye amakhulupilira ma NGOs. is this not lust for power? remember chakwera does things ironically most of the times(do u remember this CCAP to ASSEMBLIES to politics)

    10. @ Golasi if u r sane enough you know what i mean, chizungu ndi chingelezi whats the difference bcoz it all means english. U replied on it bcoz u hav an idea of what i mean.

    11. Mr smart u hav to be reminded that some donors are already working with some NGOs for example NAC is an NGO though it runs on govt funding but most of its finances comes from donors there other NGOs that are working in the rulal setup with donor money so chakwera was just talking of something that is already happening, there is nothing new.

    12. employing nurses, police, in general all civil servant should be done by NGOs even salaries should be done by NGO, buying medicane should be done by NGOs is that what u mean? so why should we have GVT? why iye akufunabe kutenga boma lomwe liribe ntchito? ,

    13. Its not that the govt is of no use, but that the govt that is here now is not living up to the wishes of the pple, do u remember that donors pulled out just after cashgate news broke out and that was bfore chakwera became opposition leader so shud we blame him for lack of donor money.

    16. Chizungu simply means any European language whlst Chingelezi is English :u knw wea english z from…ndisamvenso wina akunyoza DPP apa timanganapo apa via kalondolondo

    17. Its indeed blame game at work, the govt blames opposition and the opposition does like wise. Lastly i apologise to all friends from the southern region my comment is somehow offending i dnt mean to hurt you pple am sorry we are all malawians we face the same problems created by leaders either from opposition or govt.

    18. @ Elisha mpaka kumangana zomwezi. Dpp is prone to be insulted bcoz its a ruling party, everywhere in the world the ruling party lives by the sword like me i will never cease to insult dpp if it continues to follow bad policies that put lives of malawians at risk. I hate dpp with passion. Ndimangeni i can even give u my adress.

    19. ufunse za dpp akakunamiza zako bt take it or live it 2019 bomali ndilathunso opposition yochotsa boma ili sindikuionapo apa!!!

    20. Had u known that last elections dpp won with 36% you could not hav said such words. Mind u pple never expected that dpp will perfom like this, we xpected better things but look. The thing is they will rig elections, this is a must koma asazayelekeze kubela chifukwa nde kuzakhala kugawana zida.

    21. palibe kugawana zida amwene,musadzinyenge ai,2019 tikavotera omwewa basi…MCP yanuyo 31yrs muli m’boma,ndi chani munapangira m2ndu wa aMalawi zoposa kuwazunza,kuwadyetsa ku Ng’ona akamatsutsana nanu,kuwamanga ndi zina nkhanza zotere

    22. You dpp pple will always pretend to be blind and u think we are all the same. u cant accept that no party will surpass what mcp did in those so called 31 yrs. Your president the other day also claimed that mcp did nothing the period they were in govt and yet the very same day he was being driven in the roads constructed by mcp, he slept in the house built by mcp govt, the airport he lands at were done by mcp, his brother died at the kch built by mcp he is the chancillor of the university of malawi bullt by mcp all govt sec xuls were built by mcp. Mcp did numerous thing i cant mention all them here. Mind you its now 21 yrs since mcp left the govt and the question is what hav these other parties done?

    24. Ndipo sindinaonepo mbuli zosaona ngati zimenezi, atleast mbuli zina zimaona koma izizi izi kaya. Nchifukwa chake amati an eyed man is a king among the blind.

    25. Ndipo sindinaonepo mbuli zosaona ngati zimenezi, atleast mbuli zina zimaona koma izizi izi kaya. Nchifukwa chake amati an eyed man is a king among the blind.

    26. Thus w@ de donors r olready doing, ndiye akubwereza kunena zomwe zikuchitika kale, pali nzeru pamenepo??? Alibe mfundo awa pamodzi ndi inu-nomwe amwene.

    27. Amwene there are some donors who despite cashgate are still funding the govt in various sectors, its not that all donors are are gone. Komanso chakwera akukamba zimenezi chifukwa a president a chipani chanuwa apart from forcing himself on us thru rigging he is again trying to force some donors to resume aid ngakhale ali ndi budget imene akuitcha kuti zero aid budget. Why is he calling for donor aid when in the budget there is no room for it bcoz its zero aid budget, akufuna aziba.

    28. Malawi elections, you can win even with 15%! what matters is who is in front. I dont see Mcp doing this as it just shows that their politucs is turning more tribalistic hence loosing more admirers on the way. I used to admire Tembos mcp. If you dont know fisp is a reality because of JZU. He is a missed opportunity for Malawi, not this Chakwera!

    29. The difference btwn Chakwera and Tembo is tha chakwera wants to be the president of malawi hence is not advising the govt on what to do bcoz he wants them to fail and him will capitalise on that while Tembo never wanted to be president, he wanted to remain the opposition leader this is why he was advising the govt on what to do and this led the govt to perfom and the pple said here is the govt. In short Tembo forgot that he also wanted to be the president while chakwera, his mission is to be the president.

    32. And if u chawinga is following someone who is working to bring down malawi so he can become presdent, then i pretty well doubt ur credibility. He is trying to sink the same boat he and all his relatives including u chawinga r in and u support that stupidity? Then u r more blind than the ones u r calling blind. I wud not call 4 sanctions 4 mother Malawi to prove my hate 4 the presdent. Chakwera has lost touch with reality and hense malawians.

    33. Mr Mcdonald who do you think brought sanctions to malawi is it Chakwera or cashgate, when were these sanctions put in place, was chakwera there? What chakwera is trying to say here is that donors must not channel their aid thru the govt becoz it will be stolen just like those billions that were stolen during cashgate. And you, u seem to hate chakwera while ur happy with dpp a party whose president is regarded as a big thief by donors. May be u dont know, the fact that peter mutharika is not interested in pushing the auditing of 557 billion shows that he is also a beneficially of cashgate or else he is protecting his brothers wealth that is deemed to hav bn acquired dubiously.

    34. I wud like to ask you dpp pple to leave chakwera alone he is not the reason why donors withdrew their aid, donors withdrew their aid bcoz of cashgate, cashgate took place when dpp was in place and it only broke out when jb was president. I know that u cant see this bcoz ur eyes are blocked by ignorance.

    35. I wud want cashgate case to go through but nt wth all malawians dead. Chawinga no too wrongs make it right. Cashgate is bad regardless of who did it. But chakwera MUST withdraw his statement. Malawi has standing problems that cant wait for resolution of cashgate cases. W need cash NOW for nurses teachers and many other necesities. And chakwera is bad influence who want to get presdency even if it means killing malawians. Go to villages and see how pipo r living and if u hav a heart, u wil neva support this stupod statement of chakwera’s. Kaya undinena kuti ndine waszindikira. Kaya wosamva chingerezi. Koma bottomline is cashgate or no cashgate Malawians r struggling. So inviting more sanctions will neva b a good idea to me.

    36. I wud want cashgate case to go through but nt wth all malawians dead. Chawinga no too wrongs make it right. Cashgate is bad regardless of who did it. But chakwera MUST withdraw his statement.

Koma bottomline is cashgate or no cashgate Malawians r struggling. So inviting more sanctions will neva b a good idea to me.

    37. No Mcdonald, its not that Chakwera is the one blocking donor aid but its cashgate, donors hav the powers to resume aid in the presence or absence of Chakwera, its their money no one can force them what to do. You hav to know that donors made it a condition that if govt doesnt do the audit of 557 billion kwacha they never resume aid, the govt is pretty aware of this and i dont know why u seem to be totally unaware of this.

    38. The condition from donors is do the 557 billion audit then taps of donor money will be opened, wheather Chakwera likes this or not if govt does the audit we will hav aid. Chakwera is there to protect what donors hav given malawians so that mbava za dpp izi zisabe i hop now u hav understood me well.

    2. zina zimachta kuonekelatu. Ekhayo emwe awerenga mkalata adzimdikile. The work of God can not go together with politics. Neva! He is a secret agent of devil but pipo dont realise that!

  212. Ngati iye tsogoleli otsutsa, mzika ya Malawi, akuti pulezident wa chipani cha anthu osauka ndi opeza bwino amene mboma likagula zipangizo za ulimi otsika mtengo, Mankhwala amapindula mukuganiza ndi tsogoleri otani ameneyi mau ovetsa chisoni.

  215. Let us build Malawi NOT to destroy Malawi.Let donors give us Money.Always some pple here at malawi thy think that thy are Wise enough but thy are fools enough.Dr Chakwera spoke very nyc but bcz always We Malawian we think that,we are right than u are just casing aperson.Also u medias tnink twice b4 u writte anything bcz u lead millions of pple awrong information if u don’t know how to take aNotmaking just stay.

  217. I think a good number of Malawians read news on Malawi24. I think this shud be an opportunity to exercise responsible journalism to gain the trust from ur target audience. A good page page like this one can be ruined through your wrongly derived opinions which you portray as absolute truth.

  219. enanu ndinu opanda fundo,kupanda kulisusa boma dziko lingayende? amene mukumunena chakwela ndinu osekesa,Peter amalankhula ngati alibe mano,angapeze funo kuti,analepela kutandiza mkulu wake kutukula dziko.

  220. MY OPEN LETTER TO DR. LAZARUS CHAKWELA
    Dear Sir,
    This letter is addressed to you man of the Gospel turn man of the politics. Yes I mean the Leader of Malawi Congress Party and Leader of Opposition in Parliament.
    What I have observed is that even if Jesus Christ wrote the speech but delivered by APM you will still find something to oppose. You always sound bitter and angry and this dilutes all the substance packaged in your speech because people still link it to your failure in the 2014 elections which might not be the case. I am not against opposing but at least not everything the President said was useless, why not giving a thumbs up where things are getting better and give alternative solution wherever you feel its failing?
    The problems Malawi is facing are not APM or DPP made but APM is trying to sort things out…but its not all up to him. The truth of the matter is even if you were the President now Mr Leader of Opposition things could not be any better bolako APM who has initiated Public reforms which you didn’t have in your plans which means we could be doing business the same old way… APM is bringing in Investors, Community Colleges etc which you don’t have in your manifesto.
    I just want to remind you Man of God that campaign period is over and if Malawi sinks, we’ll all sink including you therefore lets work together in developing this nation with clear mind and in good faith. If God planned that you will one day rule Malawi, obviosuly its just a matter of time but for now Malawi has a President already in the name of Professor Peter Mutharika whom God commissioned to lead Malawi.
    The fruits of this Government will show up very soon its just a matter of time, it is focusing on long term solutions – this is Vision..vision which you claim the President doesn’t have. Malawi needs action and not sweet speeches. Malawi need solutions and not blame game. Malawi needs unity and not division. Yes Malawi need you the Hon Leader of Opposition as it needs the State President and us all.
    Yours truly

  221. wasiya baibulo akutsegula mabuku wamba akuwelenga manovelo pakamwa pake mau amulungu achepelachepela pakumveka zandale zokha ndikukaika ngati mzimu wakuyera uja ukumanga mchifuwa mwake #mkasasinging) mcp bunch of idiots

  225. Otembeleredwa uyu mwai otitsogolera sudzauona…u cud have had a second thought kut hu is to suffer between pitala and i as a malawian mxiuw

  226. I read his speech he said Aid shud be in kinds not in cash not zimene mwalemba apazi mumakazivela kutiko inuo ,u hve twisted his speech basi kungofuna kusokoneza anthu shame on u ..ife tanva zimene amatanthauza not zamkutu zimene mwalembazi

  227. I read his speech he said Aid shud be in kinds not in cash not zimene mwalemba apazi mumakazivela kutiko inuo ,u hve twisted his speech basi kungofuna kusokoneza anthu shame on u ..

  229. Amalawi Mulungu ndiwabwino kwambiri chifukwa ataona kt Chakwela ndiwaulemu pamaso koma ali wakupha anamuchotsa mkachisi namusiya kunja kwa mpingo kt azikapha kumeneko,lero wayamba kuwauza ma donors kt asathandize malawi kodi uku sikupha?May Lord have Mercy on you!

  230. I don’t understand what this guy(chakwera) is trying to do to us,he thinks and believes that he is a visionary man and yet the only thing he make sense is empeachment and i believe it’s for himself not for malawians,i thought a good statesman would point out faults and the way out not barking like galu osaluma,why putting much pressure on something he clearly can’t run sinamvepo akunena kuti for the country to pull out of the crisis she is in,tapangani zakuti and that gives me an idea kuti sakudzi chimene boma lingachite pothana ndi mavutowa.My conclusion he doesn’t have a clue to anything

  232. Very shameful a man of God,mr Chakwera urging donors not to assist this country yet people are facing a lot of challenges due to economic crisis.Let me inform Mr Chakwera that stones never vote somebody into power but people & what he is doing people are just keeping in their mind waiting for the judgement in 2019

  235. Ife tinalimba kale mtima,mcp paja imakondwa ndi kuzunza anthu, ukhumudwa “Chatsika” dziko likuyenda bwinobwino munthu olephela iwe,unathawa ntchito ya Mlengi, ndichifukwa ukumakamba zoduka mutu,sakukondwa nawe.

  238. Munthu yemwe tikuyembekezera kut azalamulire Malawi kumalankhula mopusa chinchi??Ngatidi Chakwera walankhula zimenezi ndie kut uzatipha ngat mwai olamula dziko lino uzapezeke

  242. Khaniyi ndizoona, koma “lead” yanuyi its somehow misrepresatation of imfomation…..include donors must refrain from givin money in form of cash bt in kinds.

  249. Paja MCP kwake ndikumpha inu muli mmajekete ndemukuti madonors asatithandize mukuona ngati palinzeru pamenepo. Kungokula koma nzeru zochepa, muzikangovina gule uko u r not a leader

  251. woooo wazionongora nsika chakwera. ths z de mistake foolsh JB did in hr regme ,mwana munyumba akadya ndwo sitimanena kwa okuthandzan coz sangakupasen ndy mmmm abusa nanu mungatithawisire madonorz

  253. I see English dont love Malawi24 . Aid in-kind and cash Aid are two things . Chakwela said ,donors should continue supporting Malawi through ” kind ” through “in -kind aid ” Not cash . This does not mean he advised donor NOT giving aid to malawi its a total lie.I see malawi 24 its full of Negativity.

    2. I beg to differ with your languege semantics. Chakwera is missing a great opportunity of shining by going too political. Remember this kind of childishness gave Bingu a landslide. He is supposed to appeal to undecided voters by being constructive in his arguments.

  255. Iwe chakweranso nde kaya2 just drop ndale upitilize ntchito ya mulungu… Coz inu timaziwa kale ndalama mulibe kut muzatenge boma muzayamba kuzilemeretsa inu uku ovutika angovutika….. Za inu timaziwa munangokhala wa ndale koma Aaaa palibe access #chakwera hahaha ine Dabwi hahaha zisiyen ndaleeeeee

  262. vuto la ma leaders in Malawi, instead of workin with the government to develop the nation, mukufuna kugwetsa nzanu cholinga mukhale pa mwamba ndinu. savages.

  264. That’s the problem with Malawian politicians, at the end it’s not Peter & Chakwela who suffers but Poor Malawians. God have mercy.

  266.

  279. Same same akabwera anthu sapindula peter apindula,akapanda kubwera anthu sapindula peter nayenso sapindula.So which is which

  281. Dr. Chakwera needs me to tell him that he is a Malawian and a Public officer to that fact the he is among big belled men in Government. He is acting as if he is his own grand child in the village who has failed to proceed with school and rely on elders initiation.

  287. Amene mukupanga comment pa speech ya Chakwera sumudave zimene adalankhula koma mwina mudikire kut zolankhula zake aziike mchichewa kut muvetsetse zomwe amatanthauza,mwachidule chabe anati boma la Peter Mutharika lalephera kupanga convince ma donors kut ayambireso kuthandiza dziko lino.

  289. Chakwera never said that.. He is actually for donor aid.. His advice to the government is for positive change in order to win donor confidence..

  291. He wasn’t a pastor bt follower. No qualification to be president. He is the killer. His statment is killing his own party. Jumbe&Kaliwo should think of the life of MCP

  295. Akufuna kut nthawi ya chisankho azanene kt ma donors anasiya kupeleka thandizo :;:;:;,munjira ina tingot ndi campain wayambayo koma sakuziwa kt tamutulukira kale ma plans ake,,

  296. Nonse omwe numazitengera zitsilu zaku malawi news24 simunakhwime nzeru zoti awa ndiatorankhani usaziwa ntchito yawo simukuziwa sikuti ndine wa mcp ayi koma muziganiza muziziwa mene ndare zimayendera kuti ndi blackmail kuti zako zikuyendere samarani pakamwa panu poti muchimwa urere internet isakupusiseni amalawi anzanga

  298. Was Chakwera really ministering to the ALMIGHTY GOD I know, help me people??? am lost by what he is surfacing now. I cannot trust this man even with a ward. What more the whole state!!!!!!!

  300. I have been saying that this man is just like that stupid zimbabwean,he is a fool ,,let him go to zimbabwe bkoz he is not our nation,why is he talking that such a sht,

  301. Malawi 24 tamalembani ngati munaphunzira za utolankhani. Enanunso mukungotukwana apa mukumva zimene zikunenedwa munkhaniyi? Not in cash but in kind. I totally agree with #Chakwera coz boma ilili kulipatsa cash ndithu zithera mmatumba mawa at the end azizayima pachulu mkumalalata ine ndinali kale olemera.. DZUKA MALAWI DZUKA!!! Stop sleeping zomangowombera mal manhandled zili zonse zinatha

    2. dats kuganiza moperewera kumeneko, so u think the donors will punish the government only, we the ones who will suffer by the end of the day

    3. But whats the good atumize thandizo, lizingopitilira mmatumba mwao, akatelo anthuwo savutikabe? Open ur eyes plz this government is not trustworth

    6. Nkhani mind you #Fanny and #Frankie DPP is not a listen government you can tell the way forward but they don’t listen. If I may ask where is the money after selling MSN? ??…@ #Pempho inu ndi amene mukuganiza moperewera coz you don’t understand What #Chakwera is saying ok ever since donors started helping Malawi umphawi unatha? The thing is donors shouldn’t be giving to the government but rather resources coz sometimes it’s hard steal resources than money so pliz understand what the man is saying

    7. Nkhani mind you #Fanny and #Frankie DPP is not a listen government you can tell the way forward but they don’t listen. If I may ask where is the money after selling MSN? ??…@ #Pempho inu ndi amene mukuganiza moperewera coz you don’t understand What #Chakwera is saying ok ever since donors started helping Malawi umphawi unatha?

    8. Apa ndichimodzimodzi kunena kuti “mmasuleni baraba,mpachikeni yesu!”……..when you say that the donors should channel the money to the NGOs..,you mean you rather let the money to be spent with someone but not dpp gvt…….NGOs dont answer to anyone…………CHAKWERA….here is a man who thinks he was robbed of presidency…..who thinks is better than APM…….he’s bitter,very very angry,jelousy and envy…….do you really think the donors are very myopic?…..food for thought.

  302. Does that imply Chakwera stopping donor aid? If someone says he/she does bot have food and some1 gives him/her a bag of maize, isnt that aid? It becomes suspicious when the beneficiary demands money and not the bag of maize. So I support Lazarus. Malawi now needs material aid not cash….Ben is ready for cash. Hahahaaaa

  304. Apa chakwera wasemphana nawo upresident yu wil never ever rule this country and knw that yu r failing MCP as a party. munthu wamkulu ngt iwe zolankhula zazii daily. Kodi mutatenga boma lero mungasinthe zinthu in one yr? Grow up Mr!!!

    1. felix understand what chakwera said osathamanga kupanga comment. he only meant to say aid shud not be in monetory form but in items and thru NGOs. this journalist doesnt even know what he is writing

  306. Koma guys achakwera plz amaganiza motani? Kodi akaletsa ma donors kuthandiza amene afe ndindani poti Peter ndi banja lawo onse ndiwolemera, kodi achakwera mutu wanu ukugwira kapena ufiti mukufuna tife,ndipo ndikuwuzeni satana wakukakamirani coz munthu wamulungu sangayakhule zimenezi eish, choncho mukawawuze anthu kt akuvotereni mukufuna muzizathamangisa madonors choncho plz siyani chipani cha MCP achina Tembo achimalize okha, Tembo anali otsutsa kwa zaka 15 koma sanayakhulepo zopusa ngati zanuzi plz plz tsekani pakamwa panu ponunkhapo chifukwa cholinga chanu tachiziwa tsopano mukufuna kutipha simungaletse madonors eish.

  310. Pathetic, there is nothing like leadership in this man! Just go and see how dirty his MCP building is-it only needs sweeping and removing trash but they are failing to clean it. Different colours same people.

  311. atolankhani abodza inu chakwera dzulo ndi amene anayankhula za mzeru.ndipo the house was quiet pamene amayankhula coz zinali mfundo zogwira mtima.

  313. Enanu mukungopanga criticise,,, but I think Chakwera is right
    Do you know that government administration is there to make wealth in their pockets through stealing money(aid) for we poor Malawians??

  314. Mwati sikuputsa kumeneku!?

    Mr. Chakwera get this if you can; Umunthu, Critical thinking + conscious, and politics…are, usually, ill-fitting. Oftenly, they don’t fit.

  315. It sad that some of us just coment without looking at the facts. I feel pitty for some of us who say foul sentence, what a shame! MALAWI24, did he say stop? SERIOUS??

  316. Manyungwa S Not A Qualifyd Jounalist.Poor Headlining.Chakwera Sanaletse Donoraid Ai Bt Said Aid Shud Come Thru NGO’s not direct to govnt and thats a bliliant idea.adpp ndi acashgate

  318. Chakwera does not even deserve to be Pastor or some kind.This guy is evil minded muthafucka.Thats why you will never rule this country till your dieng days asshole.

  322. Abusa, n’chifukwa timanena kuti sibwino kusiya zaubusa nkuyamba ndale.Mmene ndimamudziwira m’busa amamva chisoni ndi nkhosa, koma zikuchitika apa.eeh.

  324. ine ndimati achakwera pokhala munthu osakhidwa ndimulungu mutumikira amalawi moona mtima….ndizouza ma donor zimenezo? Atavutike ndan pakat pa munthu wakumudzi kapena ma top official? think b u open your mouth abusa

    2. Aise,Saulo Anasintha Kukhala Paulo,kusiya Zamdziko Nkupanga Zamulungu Ndipo Anakhala Mpostoli Wamphamvu Kwambiri Kuposanso Ena Omwe Anayenda Ndi Yesu Alipansi Pano.Munthu Akachita Zosemphana Ndiizi,amakhala Ngat Wapenga Nde Zaachakweraz.

  333. Inu simuzalamilirako Malawi. Avutike ndi Peter or we poor Malawians? Sindinaveko fundo yanzeru kwa inu. M’pasen John Tembo cipani amalize ekha. Mukhala opanda ma supporters. Ndithu. A man of God kuima pachulu kupha anthu chonchi

  334. He Is Absolutly Right.Direct Aid To Govnt Wil Result In Another Cashgate Since These Pipo R the same,aid shud b directed to NGO’s cos @tleast tho its not 100% but 90% of it wil do its purpose.so there is substance in wat chakwera is sayin.onyozanu tinazolowera kuti adpp ndichoncho amadana ndikudzudzulidwa komanso chilungamo.

  336. Akaletsa aid ovutika ndindani? mutharika ali ndi chuma kare koma iwe ndi ine ma nkhwara akapanda kupezeka titani kumaganizira anthu ovutika pofuna kutsutsa komanso kumakhara ndi mzimu umene ungamakhuthandizeni kulankhula mwanzeru Mulungu odziwa kukhululuka akukhululukireni Amen

    2. read the speech first n u ll get wat he seid not zimene akulemba awazi he seid Aid shud be in kind not in cash dats wat he seid ..

    8. Yu think u hav understood more than others co u r bias. Think govt runs in cash not kind. W hav 2 groups of teachers and a group of health workers who cant b employed. Do u think they will b employed and paid in kind? Chakwera knows bt he is obscessed wth being presdent and wants to suffocate govt not knowing that even his own mother wants govt to serve her. Think! Malawi needs cash not kind brethren. Chakwera wayankhula ngati mbuzi apa!

    9. Yu think u hav understood more than others co u r bias. Think govt runs in cash not kind. W hav 2 groups of teachers and a group of health workers who cant b employed.

Apm sangagone osadya koma poor pipo mmidzimu.

  337. Kkkkkkkkk.Ndale zamangawa zomwe sizingathandize even akwao kwa Chakwera.Mr Chakwera please zichepeseni ngati mulu ndi nzeru,muthandizeni President.Otherwise u reverent wanu ukhala quastionable.

  339. He athu andale inu musatikwane mwamva……Mr chakwela wait for your time ngat ma donors apanga resume its time for malawians to wake up and make sure that all these cashgate thingsshould not happen again…….there must be a follow up about each and every donation given to the country……politians stop misleading this country with your silly political hatred views

  341. How stupid leadership is
    How Malawi suffering a reasoning person can come up with this siry mind set

    I feel pity with chakwela
    Mawa mzizabwela kutinyengelela kuti tizikuvotelani ndi nzelu zanu zopusazo
    Okusatilani opusawo kukuwombelani manja za usilu
    Iwe ndi mfiti sizikusiyana

    2. Oh! #Chikondi, am so sory my friend. am not saying this 4 the side of chakwera, NO! bt ur lyf. am afraid, if u dnt repent ur fate wil be regretable. these r jst politcal ideas that r only to b dscusd. i dnt thnk ur hot heart wil solve t fast. pena kumangoziwerenga nkumangodzitsatira ndi bwino…

  343. Once again citizens have to pay a price for some politician to prove a point
    Like how many NGOs are out there helping? That’s the most selfish speech I have ever heard from him.
    Indeed politicians will always be politicians

  349. kmatu ati nd abusa…mungasamale dziko inu…pitani mukwagwire ntchito yomwe mulungu anakutumani ya ubusao mmmm kma zina

  351. kmatu ati nd abusa…mungasamale dziko inu…pitani mukwagwire ntchito yomwe mulungu anakutumani ya ubusao mmmm kma zina

  356. kkkkkkk hoooh through NGOs not through peters administration kkk koma achakwera eni.ake kuitha ntchito ya opposition haa any way mulibo madala madala

  358. all those billions stolen during Banda’s regime and you still think we would hav a stable economy? Kumaganiza musanalankhule makape inu. Where do you think he’s gonna get the money to stabilize our economy? May be you shud giv up your salaries and see how untrusthworthy he can be (if it is even enuf to help our economy back on track) ‘agalu inu!’ and I quote.

  362. You are right Mr leader of opposition “Dr Lazarus Chakwera” this administration is full of greedy. Once the donors give them direct budgetary support, they will just make full of their pockets hence untrustworthy administration. Peter Muthalika is abig cash-gater Malawi ever had. I rest my case:BB)

  363. very selfish pastor!osakhululuka,osaganizira amalawi,ovutika ndiye anthu wamba ngati ma donors sapitiliza kutithandiza,abusa mwatani?masiku otsilizadi awa.
