CSOs Brands Chakwera ‘Hypocrite’

By Elijah Phompho

Civil Society Organizations (CSOs) in the country have branded the new administration of President Dr. Lazarus Chakwera as being ‘hypocrite’ in the way it has managed the national affairs, few weeks after being sworn in,

CSOs under the banner of Civil Society Platform on good governance says that the three weeks of Dr Chakwera’s administration has shown that the Tonse alliance leadership is either diverting away from its promises or implementing the same policies he despised under his predecessor, President Peter Mutharika.

Chairperson for the grouping, Billy Banda of Malawi Watch said that it is surprising to note that president Chakwera was in the fore front undermining the coronavirus pandemic fight when he was in opposition by prioritizing his campaign bid only to change tune now when he is in power.

Banda has since asked president Chakwera to apologies to the Malawian population for comprising the Covd-19 pandemic fight due to his campaign bid saying his action has led to a surge in corona virus cases and deaths the country is experiencing currently.

“In the few weeks of his reign, president Chakwera has demonstrated that he is taking this country backwards.

He made quite significant promises but he has lately shown not to be committed to the promises he made”, said activist Billy Banda

He was speaking at a press briefing him alongside other Civil Society leaders held in Blantyre on Friday.

He said by taking back the one hundred thousand kwacha free tax band policy back to Parliament after it had already been provided for in the July to August supplementary budget, the government seems to play double standards.

He also said government is yet to live to its expectation of creating one million jobs and universal fertilizer subsidy.

Also speaking at the briefing was activist Philip Kamangira who said government seems to be acting on social media propaganda by arresting sympathizers of the immediate past regime of DPP without carrying out thorough investigations.

On his part, Unandi Banda of National Elections System Trust (NEST), said it would be difficult for President Chakwera to build a united Malawi on the basis of revenge saying the recent arrests of DPP sympathizers seem to be driven by the desire to revenge on the part of the new government.

However, government spokesperson who is also Minister of information Gospel Kazako backed the government arrests saying it is part of recovering public money which was misappropriated during the previous administration.

  1. This type of causations is inappropriate u can’t accept everything to be done in 3 weeks DPP was in power for more than 10 years when they started did u monitor themy each and every week? Mr Banda this is not a family matter is government that has departments that has to follow protocol so keep calm and let the bew government work and do what they promised without pressure.

  2. 1. Mutharika deliberately imported coronavirus and unleashed it into the communities in an effort to run away from the election. He should be the one to apologise to us.
    2. My message to the sellout Unandi Banda is that there is no vengeance at all but if you stole tax money you should pay back lest you will be taken to task. Us who voted for Tonse alliance are very happy with the effort put forward by the Tonse alliance government and those of you who voted for DPP should chill.
    3. The promises were made to us Tonse alliance supporters and not to DPP cadets so take your medicine and sit back while they deliver on what we were promised.

  3. Mr kadzako are you serious on basing the argument on current arrests on social media as more accurate and the best way to go? Social media reports are a grapevine that needs thorough investigations before taking them seriously otherwise its a gumble that will cost tax payers money. This is why its labelled as a witch hunt because someome out of jelousy can fake a story to deal with another person.

    To be honest I personally don’t believe in this mcp government because of the blue lies they were making on the podium against nCov. For instance saulo at first told us that he had donated all his salary for the greater course to battle the deadly pandemic but on the course of conversation he changed tune declaring the virus as fake, telling people to hug, down playing a metre social distance measure which is complete hypocricy. The cashgate queen disguised as the honest citizen by sounding a warning alarm that covid was in at the time the country had nil registered case and when the real cases started piling up, she blantantly joined saulo mocking those who succumbed to the ultimate killer as lies who died from other causes and apm was lying to swindle donor funds. Its interesting to see someone believing in these guys who were lying about corona while putting on face masks. Tonse propagandists made viral their IT created video clip of jappie carrying empty nCov coffins and yet they forgot to put the guy on PPE to make people disbelieve the ministry of health on covid is real calls.

    Apm tried his best sounding a warning alarm but, people ignored him. All his efforts were blocked to the extent of involving cdc and WHO to help telling people that covid is real and the tallied figures by phim were real not faked but still people chose to believe tonse. After apm noted with great concern that people were mad with politics he started hand washing distribution campaign in the markets. In all the countries world over nCov was imported from wuhan in china. The political atmosphere that we had only escalated the spread of the virus and apm did his best to lower its spread and we chose to ignore. Some of the fake political remarks made the suspects escape from the quarantine centres like kamuzu stadium and to the harrassment of our health workers. Its now high time to concentrate on how to deal with this deadly virus while we are patiently waiting to see how mcp is going to fulfill her promises which I’m still doubting.
