4. Mozambique & Angola

Luanda Massacre (1961) – AngolaCasualties: Thousands killed

MY TAKE: The way forward is honesty, reform, and peace. No one should be excluded from economic opportunities because of their skin color or ethnicity. No one should be attacked or killed for being Black, White, Brown, or Asian. No one should be sent to concentration camps because of their race. The only path forward is justice and peace. Any demagogue who tells you otherwise is lying.
President Lazarus Chakwera has accepted an invitation from Mary Chilima to grace the official launch of the Saulos Klaus Chilima (SKC) Foundation this Wednesday in Lilongwe.
We have never been good at running a parastatal. Search....
There is need to read the regulation that is creating MAMICO. From the look its everywhere in the mining sector. Looks like a #regulator than a player in mining.
@Ambuyentengeni No, having a lean department is efficient and limit the excess bureaucracy.
Fact that you think creating another parastatal is a good thing baffles me chief. 🤦🏽♂️
The policy rate is at 26%, good for inflation control & bad for growth. Inflation is also because of low domestic production & yet we hold money for growth from private sector. We increased their cost through minimum wage hikes. Increase in crop prices. Taxes.

I am an African from Nigeria, and I stand with honourable Malema of South Africa.
Repost if you stand with us, let's show Elon Musk that we support our own, and we reject white supremacy.

Wachiwiri kwa mtsogoleri wa dziko lino a Michael Usi anakumana ndi nduna ya zachuma a Simplex Chithyola Banda, nduna yoona za malonda a Sosten Gwengwe komanso akuluakulu a Reserve Bank ya Malawi ndi a MRA kuti akambirane za momwe chuma cha dziko chikuyendera.
Chakwera has truly overseen the country’s worst economic period in the multiparty era. Malawi Kwacha is a junk currency, inflation is at an all-time high, and forex is nowhere to be found. Why should we give him another five years? To do what again exactly? This is surely enough!
Apartheid wasn’t just about separate benches and buses—it was an entire economic system that stole land, crushed opportunity, and built generational inequality. Fixing that isn’t “racism,” it’s necessary.
Why does Elon Musk think he can declare people international criminals? The videos he’s sharing about Julius Malema are over 5 years old, were tested in court, and had no merit. Malema may not be our favorite, but his politics resonate with millions of South Africans.
I'll just drop this here: This cartoon was drawn before the Tonse Alliance fallout, and honestly, it feels like the artist has a crystal ball! Talk about foresight—I’m half expecting them to start charging for their psychic services! 🔮
Today @MACRAMALAWI all fired employees were re-instated by a High Court ruling. They include a Director General.
Will government implement the Court order this time?
