LEAVE NKHOMA SYNOD ALONE
WARNING! Not for the weak hearted
Dear Dalitso,
the gluttonous brother, If I would be too honest with you I would say “it is
indubitable that you survive by writing bad about others, in simple terms “ you
are paid to write nonsense”. However, when I browse through your writings (most
of which are pro PP) I see a young man betraying his own career through his
predisposed, potentially sponsored writings.
Of course I should acknowledge
that you are not one of (my) the best writers and of course it would be an
insult to the worst writers if we would blend or include you in that category
(that sounds too personal, yea, I agree with you, but it’s just the painful
truth) I feel sorry for brothers who write to please their masters (politicians
and their berries) and not to tell the truth, I feel sorry because their
careers are short lived.
My brother, let me remind you that writing a story is
beyond putting together letters rather involves strategic thinking, analyzing
what you gathered and write a sound report. In your article you said,
“Chakwera’s duping of Nkhoma Synod to cost his bid”. I carefully went through
this article and thought that I could read something like, “The moderator of
Nkhoma Synod or Rev. so and so of the Synod said Chakwera will never have the
support of Nkhoma Synod because he once dumped the Synod.”
That is what I
expected, and I repent of my sins of thinking that the writer was professional
enough to do so. Dalitso, if you ever went through a communication class and
came out transformed, you would have learnt that stories like the one you wrote
are dealt with using a coin theory whereby each side of the story is equally
important.
Did you try to inquire and hear from both sides? Or maybe you just
made your untutored shallow research and draw suppositions? As a professional
(if at all you are) you would have known that greatest journalists (not that
you are one of them or aspire to be) base their stories on real research and a
sound analysis of issues
On Sunday 21st
April, the Nkhoma synod through its Leaders on Z.B.S refuted the allegations
that the Nkhoma Synod was backing the candidacy of JZU, they emphasized that if
some pastors visited JZU, did that out of their own interest not that of the
Synod.
Did you get
that? Or maybe at that time you were busy licking your master’s boots? In fact
in your article you said that Nkhoma Synod is still angry with Chakwera’s
dumping of the Synod. I find this irrational with what the church stands for.
There is no way Nkhoma Synod would keep grudges against Chakwera for such a
long period. The fact that some pastors visited Tembo does not make one to
generalize that the Nkhoma Synod supports JZU and has grudges against Chakwera.
Nkhoma Synod is actually proud of the investment they instilled in Dr.
Chakwera; he is part of the big Christian family of which Nkhoma Synod is part
of.
Once again, to
the Writer (Dalitso), you need to understand that writing does not end on just
gathering the materials that you need to use in your article; it does as well
involve critical thinking as well as a strong knowledge on news analysis. In
your article, you categorically made some silly assertions that highbrows would
easily pick on. What is the connection between MCP and Nkhoma Synod?
Are you
telling us that Nkhoma Synod is a branch of Malawi congress Party? Are you
telling us that Nkhoma Synod has the final say on matters of MCP? I should
think and I know that Nkhoma Synod is bigger to handle party politics. These
are some of the questions that your article raises and unfortunately your
half-baked research fails to discourse. Dalitso my friend by default, Mwina
unakalemba mchichewa mwina zidakabveka bwino (may be if you had written in
vernacular your article would have made sense).
I would like
to believe that if Chakwera had dumped Christianity for Buddhism that would
have been a problem for Nkhoma Synod. If Chakwera had dumped Nkhoma Synod for
Humanistic ideologies, that would have been something to worry. His moving from
Nkhoma to Assemblies of God would be equated to somebody who shifts from Zomba
to Mulanje, yet remains to be part of the big idea (Malawi).
I repeat
this is not for the weak hearted because am calling a spade a spade, a
bootlicker, Dalitso.
REALITY
CHECK
To my
gluttonous friend, Malawi is ready for the new leaders who are God fearing not
these recycled politicians who become billionaires 2 weeks after going into
government. I repeat, not these recycled politicians who have already written
an intend letter to join the party that will win in 2014 and they will submit
that letter as soon as MBC will have announced 7% of the electoral results.
Malawi is too good for these ill mouthed politicians who accuse somebody for
not being married yet themselves have a horde of women in all regions of
Malawi. When I become APM advisor, I will encourage him to snatch a wife from
somebody just as we hear the allegations that JB snatched hers, maybe that’s
the way to go so that ill mouthed people like Uladi would begin to respect him.
We don’t want
dirty politics, concentrate on your party policies and rebuild the image of
your party rather than hide under the shade of being a journalist (if at all
you are).
May you bless
yourself as you trade your career and vigorously wait for your next pay slip.
Yours’ Truly,
PP cadet
