Charles,

Unali umphawi. Kumatengeka ndi masikono a yellow ndi botolo la fanta.

For the Southern Region 1 microbus, makolo athu contributed ku ntchito, we
contributed ku sukulu and each house contributed.

Anthu ankadumpha mipanda ya misika kuthawa amisonkho. Misonkho wa K3.50
whether you were employed or not. Ukangofika dzaka 21 ali ukhome nsonkho.
And you still needed 22 tambala card just to enter the market.

Taziona ife. Kuyimba m'manja kunali ndi style yake. Osangoyimba mmanja
chisawawa.

Kodi umene uja unali ufulu? Mtheradi, tinali akapolo a Kamuzu. Adatipeza
tikubvala nyanda zomwe iye ankabvala asanayende wa pansi kupita kwa Azungu.
