So, yesterday, a parent dropping their child at the Kamuzu Academy accidentally dropped this receipt, of items bought for use by the child at the school. Study it carefully. Almost K600,000. Buyer's name? The Kamuzu Central Hospital. Eyetu. Nivea perfume and roll-on, Pringles, sardines, stuff like that. Paid for by the hospital. Turning and turning in the widening gyre.

The speech delivered by the Minister of State, Mr. Alfred Gangata, is deeply troubling on many fronts. His remarks carry the unmistakable implication that “it is now our time to eat”, a sentiment that stands in stark contradiction to what the President has consistently and publicly stated. The President has been unequivocal: this is not the time to eat, but the time to build the nation. His actions have matched his words. He has moved swiftly to fill critical positions with competent professionals, people whose expertise and integrity he believes can help steer Malawi toward a better future. Yet Mr. Gangata chose to rebuke those very professionals, accusing them of manoeuvring themselves into appointments simply because, according to him, they did not “fight” hard enough for the Democratic Progressive Party’s return to power. He goes further to suggest that these professionals are rushing to the President with lies, all in a bid to secure positions. The implication is unmistakable: professionals do not matter, loyalty to the party does. That, in essence, is his message. I strongly and openly disagree with his stance. If this is the direction the DPP hopes to take the country, reducing public service appointments to partisan rewards and punishing competence, then Malawi is headed for another dark and wasted five years. We need professionals. We need merit. We must abandon this corrosive mentality of “it is our time to eat.” What the country needs are men and women who can bring strategic vision, technical capability, and stewardship to the institutions they are appointed to serve. And we must ask a simple, honest question: When you were fighting politically, were you fighting for yourselves as individuals, or were you fighting for the nation? Clearly, the President’s message of nation-building is being undermined from within his own ranks. No country can progress under such thinking. If we truly care about Malawi, then professionalism, not patronage, must guide our path forward. I submit.

Good morning. What has happened at Greenbelt is criminal. Almost K200 billion shared like tomatoes. With absolutely no work done. One guy closed his business soon after taking the money. Flew one girlfriend to Dubai and another girlfriend to Bangkok, staying for weeks in luxurious hotels and going on cruises. Ndalama za Amalawi.

The US Embassy has weighed in on Hot Current. Truly shameful what is going on. Takeaways: 1) About 10 per cent of holders of the Malawian diplomatic passport overstay in the US, one of the highest rates as per their statistics (from other nations, it's usually 1 per cent or less); 2) Some holders of the diplomatic passport stay behind and apply for asylum; 3) Among the 43 applicants for the visa two weeks ago, there was one applicant who took along two other Malawian "officials" last year, both of whom remained behind in the USA and are now seeking asylum. Obviously the person's visa application could not be accepted this time; And many other embarrassing anecdotes. Watch.
