  3. ask his relatives,they will tell how cruel monster apm is.he doesn’t even go to funerals of his own relatives and you expect him to go to gwanda’s funeral.

  4. ANYTHING Called “ISM” is evil and belongs to hell. Criticism, satanism, humanism and the rest of the isms. no need to practise the isms in as far as funerals are concerned because if my memory saves me well i never liked to go to funerals for show, appease, please anybody or fear anybody. moreover funerals are expensive and a drain of hard earn resources. i would rather support the idea of putting resources over prevention of sickness and healing. “chotsa chipika m’diso lako kuti upenye bwino, nkuchotsa katsitsi m’diso la m’zako.”

  5. Peter don’t care about Malawians so don’t surprise if something like this happened, what u gona hear every time is ;his supporters defending him
