Weeks later President Chakwera has bowed to pressure and publicly apologized on Friday when he addressed people in Kasungu on his way to Mzuzu.
“Inu a Kandodo simudalakwe. Kungoti muma ofesimu muli anthu otcherana ndale. Ofuna kukugwetsani. Ine sidadziwe kuti mwabwera (Mr. Kandodo there was nothing wrong you did.
“Only that people want to finish you in your office. Be careful, some people have scores to settle with you,” said Chakwera, marking the first sign of the reinstatement of Kandodo soon.
A local analyst has since described Chakwera as a weak leader who has been captured by MCP forces and he is failing to make independent decisions.
At the same time, Presidemt Chakwera’s visit is seen as an attempt to downplay the impact his Vice President Saulos Chilima’s visit three weeks ago.
Politics of appeasements. But the guy had accepted using the money for unintended purpose and its returning after it was revealed that he had a taste in the covid funds. Is this unima trivia guy trying to tell us that even chaponda was innocent and the people to be questioned and dragged to court were the technocrats in his office? The way every1 behaves with mcp blanders seems questionable. Its very laughable to see how the big cahuna behaves. He counteracts himself shamelessly. On the other hand, malawi is such an interesting country full of people who act very strangely. When the president takes time to act people start making stupid comments. When he buys time to get full evidence to act on, they make foolish noise. It might seem as if the big guy is running away from losing party grip. The only guys who face the tough side of the law are non-tonse fans and especially those deemed dpp. The ps has cleared him. Mmmmmm, ok. Wasn’t this guy acted on directives from a certain quarter that threatened or bribed him/her? Something is fishy here. If really technocrats are at fault, then it equally applies to all the cases of abuse of public funds which is very strange. Why in other countries the ministers resign when their ministries land in serious scandles or happened to under perform or hit by a natural phenomena which the intelligence fail to notice. It doesn’t require rocket science here to prove the ministers innocent. It clearly shows that the tonse ministers aren’t conversant with their ministries which is very surprising. Let the courts decide his fate after found guilty by the internal auditors. This act if not careful is a slap on the face of internal auditors. In shot they are incompetent and they seem to be lacking the needed experience to execute their required job.
