President Lazarus Chakwera has rejected a proposal to increase fuel prices in Malawi by a whopping 30 percent.

This decision comes at a time when the country is grappling with a severe fuel shortage, which has significantly impacted economic activities.

The proposed price hike was intended to help Malawi navigate its current fuel crisis, described by experts as the worst since the country gained independence.

However, President Chakwera’s refusal to approve the increase has raised eyebrows, leaving many to wonder what alternative solutions the government has in store.

Rumors suggest that the government is exploring the G2G (Government-to-Government) approach to find a lasting solution to the fuel shortage.
