Leader of opposition Lazarous Chakwera has openly asked Malawians to ‘wake up from their slumber’ if the country is to develop and could not hide his frustrations at the Peter Mutharika administration.
The Malawi Congress Party (MCP) President titled his response to the State of the nation address made by Mutharika on Friday as “Dzukani A Malawi (Wake Up Malawians)”.
In his response, Chakwera argued that the reforms that the Peter Mutharika led government has implemented are useless and not helpful at all.
While branding Mutharika as a liar, Chakwera said the reforms have failed the country’s economy from stabilizing.
Chakwera titles his speech 'Dzukani a Malawi', meaning arise Malawians

Chakwera says ”’Reforms are just not making sense when theres hunger, food shortages, drugs shortages and insecurities in Malawi.”
The opposition leader said the hunger situation that hit Malawi as a result of poor planning by the government.
He argues that there is more of talking and not ‘doing’ on the part of the government citing the greenbelt initiative among others.

Oh my! Mr Chakwera you think you can buy favours with ur STUPID criticism against the well elaborated SONA? That’s cheap politics you Pharisee! Better go back to ur evangelical work, may be u r better suited there(though i doubt it wth ur hypocrisy)! It seems the stupid trend of blacklisting everythng the govt says is eating away the once wise minds of those in opposition. MARK MY WORDS: If this continues, MCP WILL NEVER RULE MALAWI IN A FORESEEABLE FUTURE, NOT BCOZ DPP IS ANY BETTER BUT COZ OF HOW THE OPPOSITION IS PLAYING ITS CARDS! U WILL REMAIN BE BEST LOOSERS(COMING SECOND IN GENERAL ELECTGASK TEMBO HE WILL SUBSTANTIATE MY WORDS!

All governments dont govern.All presidents become just people after elections.And that means politics is an expedient vehicle that takes us no where than the end.If you Chakwera try him,he will not govern after soon after elections.And we will hit hard again on him.We tried JB she didnt govern.and we threw her out the first office.We tried Bingu he didnt govern,and we protested.some died.Muluzi didnt govern,we protested.Evison died.Today its peter he is not.And the noise I hear tells me protests are in progress.We cannot trust the politic man coz he is already on top of us.and he wants to remain on top.He has best up cars,good houses,allowances.And even pretty wives.The politic man doesnt think of a local nurse,teacher,policeman,soldier and all.All we is to think of us.I dont see a fair politic man to come.
I have great expectation that if chakwera can be in power Malawi somehow the situation can or will be change than what DPP Rides this gorvement..dzukani amalawi indeed ndikale tinayamba kugona

Chakwera is sleeping. Let him wake up as well and realise we are not sleeping.
That’s the job of opposition parties and its the fact that the citizen’s are dying with hunger, no drugs and poor economy. … and its in a country surrounded by better and improved countries. ife Noma Kathy zikutivutira pati? or untill when? I can see most of those who are behind DPP are just also those dead brains pple who doesn’t know anything about reform to transform. … MAlawi, woke up! Maliki onse amene tidayandikana nawo zinthu zili bwino and check on their leadership’s. Now I believe kuti a Malawi if tidzafa ndi umphawi coz we want change but nobody want to change and nobody want to lead the change.
Plz god forgive Larzarous for, what he did instead of preaching the words of God he is disturbing people in this sweet country
