R. Dzanjalimodzi (1953-2008)

One Hand-Danjalimodzi

New Blood in Politics
Words cannot describe you
Your works speaks volume
Of One hand of greatness

The Hand of Secretary to Treasury
A hand of a Politician
One Hand of Chair-Public Accounts Committee
A hand of great Parlaimentarian

Who will speak for your party
Who will chair the Public Accounts Committee
Who will be the voice of reason
The one hand that did it all is gone
Rest In Peace

At the time of publishing this, there are reports that his Mother had passed away when the body arrived in Malawi.

As a Journalist, I knew late Dzanjalimodzi when I was young, he introduced me to most of his constituency structures when I was following up a story on constituency development fund. We last spoke in July when he analysed the Public Finance Management Act and consequences of Finance Minister and Secretary to Treasury when drawing money from consolidated fund with Parliamentary approval.
He promised me a copy of approved final report of his committee whose proceedings I had covered between February and Apil.
He was great in many ways, humble in real sense and a man of intellect.
Go thee well Mr.PRO.

Only God can justify why it had to be you now.

Rest in Peace

What the Gay rights campaigners missed!

The ruling on Gay engagement as buggery and indecency is something that was expected and generally the feeling is that it is welcome in a deeply conservative society. The worst perfomer are the Gay rights activists who though they could influence our courts with messages from England, South Africa and even nearby borders.

Unfortunately with the current global information access, one can easily deduce the calculated test-the waters plan that later emerged with another wedding in Argentina and in Asia and similar attempts in Kenya. The use of people without any public influence such as Chimbalanga and Monjeza showed how the camapigners view the views of Malawians and our society and some...

Ousmane Owen Munthali 1987-2015, the best of memories

Good morning Mr Munthali. I always responded Good morning Mr. Munthali. He always ended ndimakukondani Achimwene. I would laugh or ask what is it you want. He would say your time, I have nobody to bother now, so you are my choice lets chat. Every call, whatsapp, messenger from Ousmane was something else. He did not see what time it was and neither did he mind that he was inconveniencing you. He said he never applied to be my brother, so since he cant be fired, get used to it and live with it. In 2007 whilst in Johannesburg, we were with Chikwekwe Khonje, is his rugged Fiat, South African Police stopped and searched us. I was furious, Ousmane was laughing after the ordeal I snapped up asking him what was funny about the humiliation of being stopped and searched as potential suspects, he casually said "zilibe woti wachoka ku USA, kaya ndiwe celeb wa newspaper ku Malawi umazunza ma President kwanu, aliyense kuno ndi suspect. Pepa chimwene." I am dark, he could not read I had t...
