  7. The question is……”what if he didn’t?” Would you have said “Tay failed Malawians?” I’m always against the ideology that when a celebrity achives something i.e Gold/Silver/Bronze Medal or any other Award in any event, then it becomes a National Celebration/Achievement…….But when/if he did not (failed) then it becomes an individual failure (& not a Nation as a whole). This is a global pandemic. We need to console our celebrities during that time of failure and make it a National Failure/Concern. My take though, Thank u.
