The Minister made the remarks during AMAPIANO Splash Balcon event on Saturday September 18,2021 at Amaryllis Hotel in the Commercial city of Blantyre.
Usi said now time has come for investors to work with government in promoting the hidden talents among the youths saying this contributes a lot to the social-economic development of the country.

He said there are a lot of talented youths in the rural areas and semi urban areas whose their talents remain unpromoted and unexposed due to financial challenges.
” This is now time for you investors to work with the government in uplifting and promoting the hiden talents among the youths who do not have stable finances to do this on their own. Let us organize free music shows where the youths can demostrate their talents for free like what Amaryllis hotel has done for organizing this amapiano balcony event”, said Usi.
