Dear Mr President
Forgive my demeanors thus far for writing you in this manner; in fact, your present comportment coupled with your middle finger altitude towards Malawians, puts you in a position where you don’t deserve any pleasantries. You give us a middle finger; we give you some... That’s how we are rolling, that’s what you taught us with your HRDC gang that “Osaopa”, yeah sitikuopa.
Some few days ago I was sent some video clips of you Mr President during your yesteryears, sharing the word of God at the pulpit as President of the Assemblies of God in Malawi, oh my! I was impressed. The power, the energy, the passion, the art in your language, your familiarity with the word moved me, not only me, I believe you moved a number of souls during your time.
Mr President, it’s an indignity to your past feat that you are failing to translate the same, now that you proceeded to the secular world. Your show thus far is a minus zero, below everything that we call excellence.
Apart from some good English, your biceps, that army uniform you wore someday, nice suits, taking the Covid-19 jab, “fuming” and “spitting” nothing and a display of many other nothings, you stand to be the worst president to have ever occupied State House, but for the sake optimism I refuse to make such a conclusion.
You asked for patience, for some good 12 months Malawians gave you all the time. 12 months is long enough to lay foundation for change. 12 months is long enough to offer hope for a new Malawi. 12 months is long enough to get rid of nepotism and corruption.
12 months is long enough to lay foundation for the country’s social and economic transformation. 12 months is a century which can give a new face to Malawi, with some good policy direction and well thought for governance decisions.
Mr President, 12 months is even long enough to learn the trade of governing and staying away from blunders, scandals, and mediocrity that have characterized this current administration at each and every second of your stay at Kamuzu Palace.
12 months is long enough to create jobs, reduce presidential powers and turning away from all the ills and the mess that were created by DPP as you made us believe on the campaign trail and as Leader of Opposition.
Mr President, to say you have failed is not an invention but the truth. Malawi is sailing on troubled waters without a captain. You don’t exist anymore; we can’t even hear your footsteps.
Your ministers Mr President have gone rabid, and you can’t even tame them. I guess you are happy to be called the "King of thieves" as former president APM called you a couple of days ago.
All you know is turning this country into a Chakwera monarchy where Prince and Princess with their spouses are all over taking charge.
Mr Chakwera you gave Malawians a dummy, such a scam. Unfortunately, the Laz SKC pair had the goodwill of Malawians. But now the people that stood by you, the people that gave it all, the people that ushered you into power, the people that fearlessly fought to send DPP to the opposition benches feel cheated. All their hopes, all their wishes, everything was just in vain.
I can go on and on… Mr Chakwera, for once, would you please stop snoring at Kamuzu Palace, wake up and start doing the right thing. Is that asking for too much? I guess NO!
Ndisiyile pompa kaye kwa lero
Truly yours
Che Adyamani.
