MALAWI’ 14 MONTHS OF LIES, DREAMS AND SOCIALS WITH PEOPLES PARTY GOVERNMENT.
It’s almost 14 months now in view of the fact that the Peoples Party became a ruling rank with the downfall of our Late Ngwazi Professor Bingu WA Muthalika in April 2012.As a matter of actuality, a lot has been assumed and a lot is to be said. Promises have been made and dreams have been dreamt on the contrary nonentity realistic on the grounds seems to become visible. Though most of the royalists to the ruling Peoples Party in their point of view feel that being told the truth is offensive to them or simply being a critic to amai’ government of the day, from my point of view I remain an Observer and non political Magede Si Wandale scrutinizing closely how Malawians are being lied to in the same place acknowledging that one president exists at a time, I am not here to show aggression or humiliate you rather proclaim the truth and hold our government accountable in order to help the leaders of today solve some of the deceit and dreams that are setting a bad picture of our government and making Malawians to loose trust in it.
Presently in 14 months, Malawians have been made to live and accept as truth a life full of deceit and falsehood. If we replicate on the recognition speech we once heard sometime in April 2012, on assumptions, Malawi seems to have 2 different presidents steering the country in which one president is good at dreaming and promising stuff that shall not come to pass and on the other hand the other presidents is there to make this other dreaming presidents a failure. By this time if we reflect on the promises that had been made sometime in April 2012, rural Malawians in tomato, nkhwani<pumpkin leaves>, and mbatatesi <Irish potato>business could have been millionaires by today with the exporting of such products to countries such as Ethiopia, India, China and not forgetting Korea, if we are to judge our government and hold it accountable where are we today? Lies and Lies running a country by lies.
It’s not long ago that we the populace of Malawi particularly the youths to put out of mind speedily the labor exportation deals to countries such as South Korea, Kuwait and China just to mention a few from the long line. I believe by now the youths of Malawi could have turned into millionaires and brought a lot of forex into the country not only that but also improved living standard of their families with such a dream that could see our youths being remunerated over MK 450,000 a month. Hardly I want to judge anybody or the ruling Peoples Party but if we all reflect on the events that have surrounded and made headlines recently on the media fraternity regarding such a fading dream where we are today? Lies and dreams running a country by lies.
In addition to that, we all saw the launch of the one cow per family initiative that had been aimed at targeting about one Million families by next year, practically on the ground, how many families have been reached by today? If we thoroughly scrutinize and have a reasonable foresight on that project, the project isn’t feasible but a mere catalogues of political lies and dream , the probability of having that target being reached by 2014 are minimal and as of now the project beneficiaries are almost royals to the ruling class. Project risks such as some of the cows kicking the bucket have already been experienced and sustainability of such a project hardly is a reality, the M and E Matrix are now where to be seen. With only 10 months remaining to the project duration where are we today with our target populace? Lies and lies running the country by dreams.
Esteemed Malawians, in just 14 months we have seen tours and tours ranging from one destiny to the other, our leaders have been addicted to travelling and it has now turned to be a hobby and partying time for our leaders with the government coffers, of what significance have such global trotting and honey mooning brought to the rest of Malawians? Absolutely nothing at all apart from being lied to on press briefing statements. What change have the within country non stop tours brought to the Malawians apart from our leaders pocketing and getting a huge sum of allowance? Honestly you will need to find answers for yourself.
Though the lies and the list can be endless, let me rest with the lies and the dreams on the fallacies of Economic Recovery, to be frank my fellow Malawians, our Economy has not recovered and even our leaders are aware of that but for the sake of political appeasement, our leaders have made us believe that our economies are on track, it was just the harvesting season as usual with the tobacco sales and the availability of maize that resulted in the appreciation of our currency, move around the country to the remotest part of Malawi and see how people are lavishing in extreme poverty, the issue of recovery should not alone be appreciated by those that are in favor of the government of today rather the rest of Malawians especially those under privileged should also be able to have a testimony, in most parts of the country the prices of goods and services are so exorbitant having no sense of an economy at ease.
To conclude, it could have been much better for our leaders and the peoples Party to realize the huge task they have to serve over 14 millions lives of Malawians and be serious with the running of the government instead of concentrating on petty issues like face book posts on podiums which are simply showing lack of seriousness and the immature nature of leaders we have. Matters of national significant and interest needs to be treated with sober mind and integrity instead of running the country as a mere social gathering where people could gather and drink binge and get intoxicated with their own actions. Running a country is not all about political ambitions and lying but being accountable and responsible enough to the people we serve-BY: Magede Si Wandale
