Malawians React To The Firing Of Minister Lobin Lowe

Yesterday, through national address, President Lazarus Chakwera fire Minister of Agriculture Lobin Lowe over the missing of millions of kwacha meant for subsidy fertilizer under the Affordable Input Programme (AIP), and replaced him with Sam Kawale.

Lowe was fire together with his vice Madalitso Wirima Kambauwa for what he described as negligence in the procurement process.

Malawians have reacted to the matter, while others have clapped hands for president for such decision other have attacked saying he was late to act on the matter.

Below are some the words from Malawians..

Aubrey Tambala: 1st payment was done in May, 2nd payment in June, wasn’t the president aware of this? Didn’t the minister report and update the president on the procurement contracts of AIP program? This is just a face server for the president…RBM, ministry of finance treasury releasing such a huge sum of forex to a procurement contract that didn’t go through proper vetting…this is an organised syndicate…..a president nawonso akulephera ntchito.

Hastings Banda: Firing Lowe is not a lasting solution neither is gonna solve any problem at all,this guy was supposed to be arrested to deter the other would be offender.
hembe Kadangwe; There are still many questions to be answered, the minister wasn’t the key player here, what’s going to happen to the other player like people from treasury, SFFRM, RBM, etc. if they still remain in those positions what will stop them from repeating this? The rot is in the civil service and statutory corps.
Beatrice Bartholomew Davison: For some reason I don’t believe anything the president said, firing the minister does not mean this govt is corruption free. A lot is happening under your watch Mr President, you are sleeping on the job.
Al’haji Sheriff Jumah Jnr: What more do we need from a president? This is the best president Malawi ever had man.
Mwiza Mphande: If I was Sam I would have rejected the position. It’s too late to save Babylon. The rain season is just next month. The failure of Lowe will be laid on him when this AIP program fails.
Kelvin Wanyachisiza M Nyirenda: Chakwera must take a proactive approach in the fight against corruption and impunity in his government otherwise his indecisiveness is causing more harm to this country than good and impede him from taking effective actions that can drive this country forward.It seems he is not in control nayeso akumangozizimuka zikachitika ngati ife tomwe.
David Paul Dominic: Who is more perfect than the other…… it seems like each n every sector has got plenty plus problems which are affecting this country. Lack of competent and job specialisation makes ministers and other employees continues to demolish country’s economy!! We are living in the country of slow n late investigations.
Lusungu Kondowe: Firing him is not enough.. the dude deserve a heavenly slap. Anationjeza mpaka involving butchery.
Mjanyama Kapsey Halla: The firing of mr lowe, its a move, musapuse amalawi, the president himself and his cabinet, must all go for good, not productive govt. at all.
Chifundo Balakasi: He should just reshuffle his entire cabinet people like Timothy Ntambo what the hell is he doing he has been their for 2 years and he has done nothing in fact we don’t need a Unity ministry this nation is united we’ve never been at war he organised violent demonstration if it is a thank you it’s enough he needs to go and his ministry must be abolished.
Sandie Patrick Mkweza: This is completely nonsense chakwela he is too slow to take action thus why things are going well in this country lets us fire him aswell 2025.
Shy Love Macheka: A whole government scammed. Nde inuyo mmadikila people should make noise then fire the minister?
Sagra Samson: Is our president firing those ministers coz of incompetence, corruption or because of public wowowo and why only fired without arresting them after all those wrong doing to poor Malawians?
Cassim Bwanali: Thi is not government but a drama _group, follow them from the day they were elected into government till today, You can notice something.
Those are some of the view from Malawians, as for you, what is your take on this development?
