Government has faulted the University of Malawi (UNIMA) council and the Committee of Education in Parliament for fanning the Chancellor College student demonstrations.
Government’s spokesperson Patricia Kaliati said the two entities were in a better position to deal with the fee hike issue before the students decided to hold vigils that culminated into running battles with the police.
“I fault the University Council and the Committee of Education in Parliament because they were supposed to be the ones to look into it and deal with it,” said Kaliati.
She also claimed that government has information to the effect that some politicians were behind the demonstrations. The government spokesperson said it is unfortunate that some politicians chose to destroy the future of the students.
“It is unfortunate that some well-educated politicians were behind it and we are aware that they went to South Africa to collect money,” said the minister.
According to Kaliati, the students do not know what they are doing because if they knew they would have found ways of dealing with the issue rather than protesting.
She further said that the Chancellor College Students Union should have talked to the Minister of Education to map the way forward on the issue rather than destroying the future of other students.
Kaliati has since said government leaves everything in the hands of God hoping that He can intervene in the situation.
“What more can we say, we only hope comes in and speaks to these people to stop their actions” said the government spokesperson.
Listen my fellow Malawians, Prophet kamuzu said Multiparty ndi nkhondo. Kutukwana, kunyozana sikuthandiza. Ophunzira ndi osaphunzira tonse ndi ofunika palibe opambana mnzake and pali angazipangire china chilichonse yekha koma tikudalilana
Kupanga mademo sikolakwika pamene zinthu sizikuyenda bwino. Chimene chavuta ndi kuononga, kuba zinthu, harrassing people, traffic jams, kuphwanya mfuti wapolice ndi kumenya mastudent. My humble plea to the students is , do your demonstrations peacefully,in an orderly manner, right time, right place, and follow proper procedures.To the police, don’t provoke the students and the situation. Be proffesional as usual.Don’t be carried away by the situations.Osapsya mtima msanga.Oro akunyozeni kuti ndinu mathafu a std 8. Sadziwa chimene akuchita. U may use CUDSA in conflict management.B4 strike/demos, we could have taken and confronted the two conflicting parties; see the way forward. Police to be vigilant on intelligence collection. Civic education is needed to students from police and leturers on how to conduct, c consequences of these demonstrations to minimise loss of life and property. Do we remember how our lovely Fanikizo lost his precious life? God bless MW.
Tiyeni muombana mitu nokhanokha mesa mumati ma demonstration ayambitsa ndi a MCP, now you are blaming university council kkkkkkkkk
Fees hike govt sec sch were stop the reasons being poor economy and people cannot afford today fees hike in unima with same reasons how com?
NO FOOD FOR LAZY PERSON..This goes with time ndipake sindikuona kulakwitsa
So government does not know what to do to sort this out, and the best it can do is to leave everything in the hands of God. Fair enough, Peter did not know what to do either when he was education minister and Chanco was closed for 8 months. I do not expect him to know now. But if the whole president, with his government machinery, does not know how to solve a Chanco situation, can he solve the economic situation affecting this country? So Allan was right when he insinuated this government is clueless. Damn!
Carl Max said the poor will become poorer and the rich will become more richer.Anthu amene Ali mboma lero akufuna kuti Ana awo adzalamulirenso Ana athu.Mind you God is watching and we are his witnesses.
musatukwane anzanu pot inu mudamaliza, aliyese amadandaula ndipomwe ali! kwainu ndiyochepa nanga sizanu zinayera, koma kwaomwe akuphuzirawo ndiyambiri MOT MUKULIMBA MTIMA KUWATUKWANA ANZANU KUT ADANDAULA ZOPUSA? ai zikomo.
This government is always blaming every body for their undoings next u wil blame a car for not transporting the big kicker to the scheduled meetings why skyrocketing the fees knowingly that pipo are struggling to survive
God can not intervene on stupid things #fees_must_fall
Amene zikumunyasa kuti ma students akupanga zionetsero asamuke coz sanati and the battle is on. To a reasoned person, politics aside, the reasons for demonstrations are genuine. You might argue kuti K400,000/K450,000/K600,000 for generic students and K900,000/950,000/K1,100,000 for mature entry students ndiyochepa but think of Mpunzitsi we pulaimale amene mwana wake wasankhidwa kupita Ku college, do you think with K61,000 yomwe amalandira angàlipilire mwana Ku college?
That even better, but think of kholo lomwe silili pantchito, ndalama akipeza kuti?
Put politics aside and argue on a humanistic point of view. Enafe tikupanga argue based on politics underground. If was independent from politics, all these couldn’t be there, koma almost everyone has to praise their side and do as commanded by the high authority. Too bad!!!
#UnimaFeesMustFall
Zaziiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii ikanakhala million
Government should consider how poor peopla can afford and should be more affordable to all and their think all people got money and their need to scholarship and loan for students. Not God should intervene. Our government is too greedy

Seriously!!!! The government can not deliver basic services e.g. health, education, food security just to mention few. Ndiye kuti tsabola wakale sawawadi. Age limit for both presidential candidate and minsterial positions should be liberated and introduced. Malawi needs fresh and vibrant leadership.

Now its time to face the problem and facts. Then we must come with a solution. We need to stop shifting blame. But to look in the matter seriously. Now if the goverment says they don’t have money. How wil ordinary pple have it?
Thats the fact
hello I’m Samuel Okizou by name, I’m giving a testimony about Dr.Sule the great Herbalist, he has the cure to all manner of diseases, he cured my HIV disease, though I went through different website I saw different testimonies about different herbalists, I was like: “Many people have the HIV cure why are people still suffering from it?” I thought of it, then I contact Dr.Sule via email, I didn’t believe him that much, I just wanted to give him a try, he replied my mail and Needed some Information about me, then I sent them to him, he prepared the CURE and sent it to me via UPS courier service, they told me that it will take 3-4 days before I’ll get the parcel, 3 days later I received the package and I started taking the medicine as prescribed by him, after 7 days of taking the medicine I went for check-up, I was tested HIV NEGATIVE… IF YOU ARE SERIOUS YOU WILL BE CURED!!! contact Dr Sule on whats-app +2348162447651.
Find your own page to write this nonsense not here,there is noone who wants to know about your status
how old are you? how many children do have at unima? how far is your home from any unima colleges? pala wakhuta kachaso please shart up your mouth coz this is for mature pple and pple with brains osati aku community technical, leave us a lone we are toiling, if your parents are able to send you abroad izo ndi ndalama zamakolo ako, uzaziona ukabereka wako wana basopu!!!!!!!!

Nobody cme en sy waaaaaaaah 4 stupid students 4rm chancco.tiyenazon makape% if 3lu so hu gonna hlp yu?empty brain.
IT SHOWS THAT YOU, PATRISHA ‘UNFORTUNATE’ KALIATI, HAVE NEVER BEEN AT CHANCO AS A STUDENT. THOSE THAT HAVE BEEN THERE KNOW FOR SURE THAT NO POLITICIAN EVER GOES THERE TO INFLUENCE STUDENTS TO HOLD DEMOS. TO THE CONTRARY, THE TRUTH IS DURING THE BINGU ERA SOME GOVERNMENT POLITICIANS USED TO GO THERE TO PERSUADE THE STUDENT COUNCIL LEADERS NOT TO HOLD A DEMO. SO STUDENTS AT CHANCO DO DEMOS ON THEIR OWN ACCORD. AND YOU HAVE SAID THE STUDENTS ARE DESTROYING THEIR FUTURE, BUT I SAY THAT THOSE THAT HAVE HIKED THE FEES ARE THE ONES WHO ARE DESTROYING THEIR FUTURE. YOU SHOULD ALSO LEARN THAT THE PRIME RESPONSIBILITY OF ANY DEMOCRATIC GOVERNMEWT IS TO DEFEND THE POOR. ANY GOVERNMENT THAT DOES NOT STANDS FOR THE POOR NEVER DESERVES TO BE CALLED DEMOCRATIC. IT IS IRONIC THAT YOUR PARTY IS CALLED ‘DEMOCRATIC PEOPLES PARTY’. TO CALL A SPADE A SPADE, THIS ‘DEMOCRATIC’ PARTY IS NOT AT ALL DEMOCRATIC. IT ONLY HONOURS THE VIEWS OF THE PRIVILAGED FEW. THE VIEWS OF THE MAJORITY, WHO ARE MOSTLY POOR, ARE CAST TO THE WIND.
Think about tomorrow, stupid students. Being @ chanco & u think you owns the world? Stupid student from Malawi with empty brains. Look at them, shame! Who will employ you then? Chineke!!
Some anger issues there bro… Dyu have facts ?
It looks simukumvetsa chomwe iwo amapangira ma demo amwene,fees yakwera udyo

Swearing at one another won’t solve the problem. Boasting about how successful or how far you went with your studies won’t help on this issue.It’s better to just flip if we see that the topic does not concern us.#Fees must fall
fees must fall indeed

kkkkkkkk
Say whaaaaat!?
Malawi24 at it again!
hahahaha….whats that???
This woman is a disgrace to the malawi women. Here she is behaving like things are ok in her party and DPP led government. APM is the Chancellor of the University and she pushes the blame to others that are far from decision making corridors. Shut up your mouth if you have no solution to malawi challenges.
Moti simukuwona kuti inuyo aboma( Dpp) ndi amene mwaoangitsa zonsezi? Kodi zokuti anthu alibe ndalama simudawonebe mpaka Lero? Dziko mwawononga nokha ndiye muzinena anzanu. Vuto kokhala ndi atsogoleri odzikundikira zonse zawo ndizimenezitu
University students are not like young Democrats who don’t reason. They new what they were doing so don’t blame others. Blame your president for being academically decorated abroad yet he is! constructing Academic Mpumulo wa Bata in his country.
Stupid amai chidole, why do you always blame others for the blunders of your administration? You always want to get credit when things are alright but when you blander you always blame other people. Chancellor college students have been pleading with your government to reduce the fees but agonthi inu simunamve. Now that things have gone heywire you are placing the blame on MPs and the university council. Tikukuonanaitu.
