Kamlepo's comments a shame to young and aspiring politicians

Dear Readers,

I would like to emphasize that the fact that Kamlepo was arrested was of concern to me too like everybody else but however, what he said was a shame. I am not here to comment on his arrest or other statements that he said that were too obvious to mean what he said because only the nature of our law can justify that and determine the next course of action. I am here to condemn his remarks especially when he said, "where was Ngwazi (Bingu) when we were fighting for democracy". Those remarks are pathetic and appalling and without clear thought. Mr Kamlepo, this is why we want new blood in our politics.
These remarks are going far away beyond his physical words and are extending to every young and aspiring polician. It is a message to every generating political seed barring us from recognition simply because we never
Now, why do I say these words carry a lot of weight not only on Bingu but everyone else?
Mr Kamlepo simply endorses someone who was there in 1993-1994 period and got involved with what was on the ground. I tell you what, this is the same reason Bakili is insisting on validating his candidacy feeling not(thinking) he will lose everything if he does not. These politicians do not see or recognize anyone new as a likable material into the political scene against the old guns. It seems they base on how far they have come. No wonder they are in politics until today and cannot give it up but expose same old colors and ideas for a new and changed environment like Malawi is today. Their style of politics is the same as if they are still fighting against colonialism and/or autocracy, just exactly as I mentioned in my previous article. Of course, I understand politics is a career but it doesn't sound like it at all when any new blood cannot be recognized and such nonsense statements are uttered publicly. When I say new blood, I am not referring to Bingu here. In actual fact, he was there for the political change although whether in Malawi at the time or not because that doesn't matter. But anyway, the subject is not about Bingu.

Allow me if I may take this opportunity to ask Mr Kamlepo Kalua: How about the John Chilembwe era, were you there? If you were not, then do not say anything as well because we cannot endorse you either based on these grounds and how far the political road has come while also considering the number of lives we have lost in the course to gaining our political, economical, social and mental freedom that we proudly are privileged to today.
These statements in turn reveal how much these people will never give in; how much they will pursue the throne until they run out of every single thread of breath of their lives that would have at least helped to shower them with other best things outside political retirement but they chose to go on and on to satisfy some coveted but yet unsound idealism.

In conclusion, let me say my fellow Malawians, it is time to change the course of politics we have today, life style how things are done too otherwise most of our politicians today will teach and infest in us the past that most of us already know about other than the future that we and our children are very much anticipating with excitement. Do not get me wrong, I am not trying to scrap everything of the past and condemn every senior politician in politics today.
