Mr Lazarus Chakwera is everything but a leader. He is toothless, indecisive, and, on top of that, a liar. Worse still, he has appointed individuals with fake qualifications from diploma mills – Hi MERA! Now, everything is falling apart. Are you really surprised that the centre of his web of lies can no longer hold?

This week, Chakwera’s deception was laid bare during his State of the Nation Address (SONA) – or rather, his State of the Nation Lies (SNL), a full-blown comedy act.

His SNL is not the first time he has lied.

He lied before becoming president, he continues to lie as president, and he is even lying on his campaign trail. Ironically, he presents himself as a born-again Christian.

That is also the calibre of his cronies masquerading as a team – everyone he has appointed and those who support him. Not a single one is credible enough to be trusted beyond the aesthetics and optics. Birds of a feather!

Have you forgotten? Since June 2020, not a single month has passed without a scathing scandal involving one of them. Together, Chakwera and his inner circle have left Malawi in tatters.

Under Chakwera and his cronies, along with his thieving legion, the economy has gone to the dogs, and Malawi is in complete ruins.
