The 5:35-minute song, which blends traditional danceable rhythms with modern beats, opens with Gwaladi’s deep vocal intro, featuring the lines “MCP chipani chathu a Chakwera woyeeee.” The lyrics, which translate to “MCP is our party, Chakwera is great,” have been seen as a bold endorsement of the president and his party.

The song’s music video, posted on Dan Lu’s Facebook page, has generated a lot of buzz, with many users weighing in on the song’s message and Gwaladi’s motivations.

Some have accused Gwaladi of chasing money and using his talent for personal gain, while others have praised him for supporting the president and his party.

Vincent Bernard Nambuzi, a Facebook user, commented, “Deep down, Gwaladi cannot vote for Chakwera.

He is chasing money, and he should use his talent to earn it.

As the country prepares to go to the polls, it will be interesting to see how music and politics intersect in the coming months.

Malawi’s National Women’s Football Team, the Scorchers, recently suffered a 3-1 defeat to Ghana in a friendly match.

Despite the loss, Coach Lovemore Fazili remains optimistic about the team’s chances in the upcoming Women’s African Cup of Nations Qualifiers against Angola in October this year.



Fazili’s confidence in his team is evident in his decision to stick with the current lineup, particularly the goalkeeper, despite criticism from sports analyst Kim Kamau.

Kamau believes that the team needs to strengthen its defense and consider a change in goalkeeping to improve their performance.

The Scorchers’ recent record hasn’t been impressive, with five losses in six friendly matches.

However, Fazili’s unwavering faith in his team could be the catalyst for a turnaround.

As the team prepares to face Angola, the question on everyone’s mind is: will Fazili’s strategy pay off?

The upcoming match against Angola will be a crucial test for the Scorchers. Can they overcome their defensive woes and make a strong impression in the qualifiers?.
