Chakwera Asked Not To Entertain Underperforming Ministers

A Political Science Lecturer at the University of Livingstonia, George Phiri has tipped President Lazurus Chakwera to live up to his word and sack all non-performing ministers before the New Year.

According to Phiri, Chakwera’s silence on the matter could suggest a retreat from his promise considering the apparent evidence that some ministers have not lived up to the public’s expectation.

Chakwera promised during the swearing-in of his cabinet on 10 July that he would review each minister’s performance after 5 months and he would get rid of any underachievers.

Recently, Presidential Press Secretary Brian Banda asked for patience from the public insisting that the performance review will be done by December.

“According to President’s speech, he is not going to spare non performing ministers,” Banda said.
