Jumah tells Chakwera forget about debt cancellations

By Vincent Gunde

President of Muvi wa Chilungamo Revolutionary Party (MRP) Bantu Saunders Jumah, says Malawi stands no chance for another debt cancellations because of overborrowing from the international community.

Jumah says, in 2008 Malawi alongside with other poorest countries were forgiven for their huge debts as it had zero balance of credit.

He feels Malawi has for long now failed to learn a lesson from overborrowing.

He observes that five governments and presidents left the public debts at MK3,16 trillion in June, 2020 but the MCP led Tonse Alliance government alone has borrowed over MK4.2 trillion pushing the public debts to MK7,9 trillion with no impact for the country and its citizens.

Speaking through his face book page followed by millions of people across the continent, Jumah said when President Dr. Lazarus Chakwera was leaving the country for Angola to attend SADC Summit and BRICS in South Africa, he told Malawians that he will use the opportunity to persuade countries to forgive Malawi of her debts.

Jumah says most of the public debts which the country has incurred ended up into the politician’s pockets for luxurious allowances and salaries while there is nothing to show on the ground what MK4.2 trillion has done in 3 years of the MCP led government.

He says Malawi needs new leaders with mindset change but keeping on dancing to the tune of recycled politicians who are men and women dressed in suits but they are thieves, who take the country to nowhere.

The MRP President says Malawi politicians see mistakes of government when they are outside government but when they enter government, they go back to the same mistakes making citizens to feel that there is no change only changing faces of people.

”Chakwera and Chilima were proved to be good leaders while they were outside government, today, they are doing the same as what DPP was doing, no change, they are all hyenas eating the people’s taxes,”says Jumah.

He says Malawi is going through a number of crisises such as fuel, forex, procurement of fertilizer, sky-rocketing prices of essential goods because its politicians do not care about their people, no one has the heart to end corruption but building luxurious homes.

Jumah says President Chakwera and his Vice Dr. Saulosi Chilima have no solutions to fix the country and clearing the rubble in government claiming that the two are the rubles who need to be cleared and fixed if the country Is to develop.
