CONGRATULATIONS to all the people in my homeland for making the 'right choice'!! It's only the beginning of our fragile democratic politics. It will get better.
God Bless Africa.

Bravo Bingu! Bravo DPP! Bravo fellow Malawians! This is the time we can show our leaders that Malawi is not to be taken for granted and Malawi should not be regionally divided by politicians. Thats the voice of God in the voice of people.
Bingu deserve to win, tawona ntchtito za manja ake zikumuchitira umboni,enawa uuuuuh palibe. Well done Bingu, we are behind you
God has answered our prayers; we never want JZU to rule this precious country. We all know him though the time he started politics some of us were not there, but grandfathers told us some of the evil things he did during the regime of Kamuzu Banda. We applaud you Bingu, you really deserved this.
I would like be update about things inside my beloved home Africa.
