Rev Sembereka |
It’s more than a fact now and the
picture is coming out clearly that the Mac Donald Semberekas of this world are
politicians that are advancing an anti DPP government while masquerading as
Civil Society. You can tell by their arrogance, actions and choice of words as there
are still pushing to take to the streets, an idea which is becoming more unpopular
each passing moment.
The three (is it five now?) are using
the civil society platform to advance their political agenda and that’s the
more reason why their colleagues in the civil society are distancing themselves
from their plans.
They have chosen to close their eyes
and ears from any voice of reason and it’s giving us all time to think “what
the hell?”
The reasons being advanced are not
justified if not laughable. These people are not fighting for Malawi but their
own selfish motives to quench their political ambitions.
I personally love the fact that
government is not stopping them from taking to the streets because this is
their constitutional right as long as they abide to the laid down laws during
the demonstrations. I believe that during the demos, security agencies will
take charge and protect people’s lives and property without fear or favour.
Think about this; a number of those
that are agitating for the demos served in the PP administration during which
about K20 billion was stolen from public coffers but they all kept quite
because they were busy benefiting from the loot.
Martha Kwataine served in the MACRA
board and Macdonald Sembereka was working at State House shouting PP woyeeee!
PP yanyamuka, odi ukooooo, amayi adutse! and we expect such people to talk good
about the current administration? They will take advantage of any flows in the
current administration to cause havoc.
As Malawians we really need to
question the morality of these people that are claiming to be representing the interests
of the nation. We need to scrutinise the credibility of such people and their
conduct before we give ourselves flat out to be used.
It’s a disappointment knowing that
most of the times when these people organise demos they love using the youths
to advance their selfish ambitions.
It’s now time for the youths of
Malawi to rise up and refuse to be used by these selfish people. We can do
better by becoming governments’ partners in development other than becoming
agents of anarchy and disorder.
Time has come for the youths to fast
realise that they have a role to play in shaping the future of our country as
partners not as people that should be used by MacDonald Sembereka and company.
Our friends died on July 20. These
were supposed to be productive youths but sadly some political machinery used
them in the name of demonstrations.
As youths we need to be seen to be
progressing in life and bring out something out of our lives. We need to demand
for better lives. We need business opportunities, good education etc. Let these
CSOs mobilise themselves to fight for youth empowerment in this country.
What will K5 million of NAC money
that was donated to BEAM do to Malawi as compared to the K20 billion that was
lost in the whole cash-gate fiasco? Let’s fight for a successful conclusion of
the cash-gate cases not over an issue that seems to have come to an end after
the Global fund cleared NAC of any wrong doing in the transaction.
I am very sure that Gift Trapence
will also take advantage of the “unpopular” gathering to advance his gay
motives, sunganeneletu amwene.
