Malawi has become a scam. It has lost sight of its social contract. The only factory that is working in Malawi is corruption industry. We are marching toward the end game of democracy. It’s not difficult to see how interconnected things are, the performance of our legislators at all levels of government especially those at the National Assembly to the culture of corruption. Our legislators believe they don’t need the governed. They are not worried that the citizenry is left behind in all spheres of life. They are not concerned about decline of industry and lack of meaningful work for the unemployed Malawians. We don’t need a fictional George Orwell to tell us Lilongwe is rotten at its core. Reason: Truth is much scarier than fiction. Proven shocking statistics and personal stories of challenge and hardship made even harder by corruption and political collusion that reward the corrupt and criminals at the expense of Malawians. The horror created by the ruling class has become a manifest of primal fear, loss of will, and helplessness on the part of Malawians. The National Assembly is a divided house. A divided leadership eventually produces a divided nation such that we’re witnessing today – a nation of horror show. Just as every sailor knows you can’t steer a ship that isn’t moving forward, leaders understand that to change direction, you first have to create forward progress!
