DEAR MADAM PRESIDENT

Congratulations have rained cats and dogs, back to back with condolences of course! Youth and reality follows suit.
Madam President, youth want to be recognised, youth want to be part and parcel of the decision makers, youth want to be instrumental in the success of social, economic and political development, youth want to deserve what they are worth.
Young people in the country are fed up with politics and appointments of appeasement, nepotism based on tribe, region, family etc. Youth have been oppressed and abused for way to long. The great potential of Malawi’s youth has been ridiculously undermined and wasted due to selfish and pocket based politics. Youth have witnessed sad realities. Youth have been coached and blindfolded with some handful kwachas by big kahunas to flash out machetes in broad daylight, ready to slaughter the hard earned teenage democracy. As if that was not enough, authorities that be, farted a bunch of orders that rendered junior police officers with no choice apart from pulling the trigger that mercilessly caused bloodshed… July 20 scores highly on this aspect.
Madam President, you are the mother of the land and it’s the hope and prayer of many that youth will flourish under your laps. Recognise the youth, establishing a national youth day would be a step as it would enable an open forum where young people across the country would be privileged to interact with leaders and commemorate their essence in this great peaceful republic.
It is the young that are flexible enough to uphold that politics is not business, but a channel of resolving national problems and pimping development for the betterment of the 14 million plus people in the country.
Youth have fresh and comprehensive incredible ideas. Young people are open to suggestions unlike the most of the elder generation currently dominating power.
Madam President, this is your chance to hatch a legacy with the youth. This is your time, all eyes on you mama.
