Human rights activist Billy Mayaya has asked President Peter Mutharika to address Malawians over persistent blackouts that have rocked the country.
Mayaya was speaking in Lilongwe during demonstrations that were organised against persistent power cuts.

Speaking to media after giving a petition to ESCOM, Mayaya said President Peter Mutharika should address the country on the issue as it is his role as a head of the state.
“We need the state president to address Malawians on the the issue. We need answers on this because if he will not we will also demand for his resignation as well,” Mayaya said.
He also asked ESCOM to stop blaming low water levels for the power challenges saying in other countries the scenario is the same but they are able to have electricity.
Speaking at the same function , Malawi Health Equity Network (MHEN) Executive Director Joel
Jobe said rampant blackouts in the country are also affecting health services.
Jobe said blackouts that have rocked the country are killing Malawians in the hospitals .

My fellow malawians, persistent black outs is a one man problem and cant be addressed within days or months that’s a total lie and those who think like that have a mental problem like billy mayaya and yona lazalo chakwera, to prove that chakwera absconded the work of God joining politics its a sign of mental problem and malawians need not to take this person for granted, u may agree with me people who left brotherhood, priest etc do they behave normally? Malawis problem are deep rooted and they need collective effort inorder to overcome them, they need long term solutions not short terms, pali zabwino pamakhala mabvuto, owotche njuchi udzadya malesa, i believe one day persistent blackouts will be the story of the past like, maize, delayed salaries, membership party cards,shortage of foreign currency etc, may i repeat those who wants to gain political mileage due to power outrage are faluires because they have nothing to offer to malawians but only destructive criticisms
Do not worry Mr President we know the reasons of low water due to our own cutting down trees
No need March against cutting down trees and throwing gabbages in rivers
We don’t want to be addressed. We need electricity at the mom
I think Escom CEO is the one who should have come to address Malawians very well,
He should tell us technically and when is all this going to end.
