I saw bambo Maybach passing by his mchila between his legs in thorough embarrassment! It will take him a bundle of cajones to come back. Ndithu

My understanding (and it could be limited) was that since there is a UNIMA Act in place, there is also need to have that Act amended by the National Assembly. That is perhaps the most reasonable way to have the people of Malawi weigh in and decide what sort of de-linking we end up having.

The Executive directive if implemented with no oversight at this point, may mean there could be a thousand other things which end up being promulgated by presidents without the oversight by "the People". That country would approximate a dictatorship I think. No!

Your "advice" to get down to work and implement (paraphrase of course) is why I am asking for the Bill. I also want us to have the Bill brought to the House in the current sitting and a decision made. Without that, we are in an administrative and operational limbo.

Vice Chancellors are appointed using the law and the UNIMA Act does not empower anyone to hire a VC for the CoM, Poly, KCN (or whatever we will become once we de-link);

Why are you guys still not debunked, even 6 years after Bingu? A decree has to be effected without debates, go and delink. Musamatitaile nthawi
