DONT FORCE POOR AFRICAN NATIONS TO LEGALISM HOMOSEXALISM

By: Qeko

The news that the British Government will not give aid to nations that do not support homosexual and gays is a shock of the 21st Century. Never did some of us think that there would be a time when the British government would sink so low and use this unbiblical and blasphemous way of life as a scapegoat to punish nations in Africa. What the British government is saying is that we in Africa should legalise homosexual and lesbianism and then we get their financial aid. Also this means that we should exchange our very soul with the money of homosexualism and lesbianism which for many in Africa is nonstarter. If African people can be given opportunity to argue their case, there would be no single space for talking about this homosexualism and lesbianism because this is a strange way of life something which has no space whatsoever in Africa.

Now the question is : Will rich nations continue abuse poor nations even to the point of forcing them to legalism evil? Will rich nations come so low to the point of forcing poor nations to abondon the core values of their culture? Many African people come from homes where there are values and many time such values defines and shape the way they live and do things in society. We can be educated even having degrees from overseas whatsover but this does not mean that we forget our histories which defines us. To tell African people that a man has to marry a fellow man is a taboo and something that is worse than the word itself. To ask African girls to marry fellow girls when young men are available is sick and something which has no space in many African homes. And that is why this is called a strange way of life, something which has no space in Africa.

Now the western nations need to understand and respect what African people have. They should not force their way of life on African people because in the first place, we in Africa can not go to Europe and force them to adopt our way of life. Infact if we can do that we can face resistance because as Europeans they have their own way of life which has to be respected. Therefore just as Europeans have their own way of life which has to be respected, Africans also need to be given the same respect and that noone should force a strange way of life on the other

Many who advocate for this strange way of life may not like what I am writing here but the truth is that a family is composed of a man and a woman and not a man and a man. If a man marries a man what do they become and produce? If a woman marries a fellow woman again what do they become and produce? This set up of life is not normal and not even sustainable because there is no means of how this life can be sustained. It is against creation itself and against the very existence of humanity that a man can begin to have feelings for a fellow man and that is why this is not welcome in many places in Africa.

Now western nations are using human rights as a tool to argue against the positions that many African nations maintain. African nations are accused of violating the rights of such people to be whatever they feel like becoming even if it means to one day wake up and say they are gay? When God was creating man and woman, he neveer created them gay but created them to multiply and maintain a family and that is only done when a man marries a woman. Anything less than that is wrong and not acceptable.

Having said this, people need to understand that there is a spirit behind any way of life that people practice and in this regard, there is a spirit of homosexualism and gayism which causes many mainly those from broken homes to decide otherwise. Those who say that they only realise that they were gay do that because there is a spirit behind their action and until that spirit is broken down and destroyed, they continue to practice this evil until they go to the grave. So what we need to do is to stand between the gap and intecede and break down this move and wind of evil spirit blowing from the western nations unto AFrica to force African nations legalise evil. African Church and people need to take their position and say no to the propagation of this evil practice.

PROBE INTO THE DEATH OF GADAFFI A MOCKERY BY THE WEST

By: Qeko

Western nations politiking never stop to amaze me. It was the west with their UNO backing who agreed to have NATO into Libya and help rebels fight Gadaffi. Led by Britain and France, NATO have allegedly killed many Libyans in the course of helping the rebels fight Gadaffi. As the war progressed, many people kept on questioning the mandate that NATO had in Libya but the west led by the Britain and France with the US backing, kept on ignoring the writing on the wall that NATOs main unwritten agenda was not only to get rid of Gadaffi but even to make sure that he is killed. This is exactly what has happened and it is amazing that the same people who sat on the table of the UNO over Libya can have the nerve to call for a probe when in the first place they wanted the man dead. Western governments led by France and Britain and the USA should not be calling for any probe because because this is exactly the results and outcome of their decisions and actions.

The cry for a probe into the brutal death of Gadaffi by the western nations is a mockery to the African people because NATO can not just come to AFrican to kill many as they have done in Libya in the course of helping the rebels. Now if there is a talk of any probe then this has to be a probe of the NATO mass killings of the many Libyans mainly those who supported Gaddaffi. Any probe has to look into the death of innocent libyans. A probe into Gadaffi is a way of closing up for a proper inquiry into the deaths of many libyans. The west would want to potray an image as if they care while in actual sense they are not. What the world need to do is to ask for a proper investigation and not for Gadaffi only but for a the death of innocent libyans in the hands of NATO bombing. Why rushing to investigate Gadaffi alone and not the many who got killed by NATO? Let the world call for an investigation that will include every citizen that died with NATO bombing in Libya.

In all this, what we see is the evil intensions of the western nation which is that they will do anything to get hold of the riches of African poor nations even if it means bloodshed as has been the case in Libya. History points fingers into many Africans who have died into trying to save their riches from western invasions. What the west wants is to plant in Africa puppet governments, the type of governments that will always say “yes” to them. So African people and African leaders need to watch out and begin to work together as one again because without the African Unity, many African nations will be dismantled by this neo colonialism.

LETS WATCH THE SPACE IN LIBYA

By: Qeko

Now that the Gaddafi regime has been dismantled by NATO led rebels from Benghazi in the eastern region of Libya, the next move by western nations led by Britain and France is the scrambling for OIL. The question of Oil will remain the major agenda in Libyan politics discourse because finally the west will have their hand in the administering of Libyan Oil through their companies. Many western nations led by the World Bank and IMF are reported in Tripoli trying to find out how they could help bring back the dismantled economy of Libya. Of many realises that these two institutions are in Libya not to help but to force the Libyan people implement some of the policies that have failed across Africa. We only wish if there could be somebody out there to civic educate the Libyan people this time around to be careful and not hand over the economy of their country to the IMF and the World Bank because African countries since independent they have lived at the mercies of these two lending institutions but their economies have never improved but instead nations have gone into economic crisis as never before.

Historians should be keen to see the repetition of history. In 1885 at the Berlin Conference the issue was land and today in Libya the question is OIL. While in 1885 it was about dividing African land, the 21st Century and mainly the Libyan neo colonial politics is about the big nations scrambling for the Libyan Oil. It is because of OIL that the western nations are in Libya and the world should watch this because the western nations have no love and regards for the Libyan apart from the OIL. If Libya was a poor country with no OIL, these nations could not have wasted their time and money to help fight war just as the west can not do a thing in many troubled African countries particularly Somalia. Western nations are getting into Libya not that they help the poor but for their own selfish economic gains just as they have done in many part of Africa. Now the question is what will happen to the Libyan people after their oil is taken away by the western companies? These companies will one day sell the Libyan people the very oil at a high price? Now below are the few points on what the Libyan people need to understand and know as they are building their nation.

Firstly is that they need to identify the type of democracy they would want to practice as a nation so that they effectively accommodate all the tribes even those who supported Gaddafi. The fact that Gadaffi tribes supported their son does not mean that they are less Libyans because they still remains Libyans and should be involved in mapping the future of a new Libya for all. The Politics of tribal segregation will lead to more bloodshed and instability.

Secondly is that they need to understand that everywhere the IMF and World Bank have gone, nations have never remained the same because of their harsh conditions. The IMF and World Bank will force the NTC to make sure that they hand over control of some key national Assets to the private sector and in this case, the western nations companies will come to Libya and buy all the key national assets and finally take over the nation economically. This will create a big gap between the rich and the poor just as is the case in many part of Africa due to the imposition of harsh condition by the IMF and the World Bank.

Thirdly is that the Libyan people should be ready for the western music called, “privatisation” where Libyan national assets will be put in market and those with money will buy them and in this regard, it will be big companies from Europe who will eventually control the market and economy of Libya. This means also that ordinary Poor people in Libya will not have access to the services renders by such facilities.

Fourthly is that some of the key items that privatization will focus on include, electricity, water, medical and education. These services were given free to the people by the Gadafi regime. Now the question is will the IMF allow that electricity, water, education and even medical be given free to the people? So the Libyan people need to get prepared because there are hard and difficult days ahead where in as much as Gadaffi was bad all his good services he provided will begin to be appreciated.

Finally as events unfold in Tripoli, we are watching this space to see what will be the next major thing to happen in Libya after the nation and its wealth get into the hands of the World Bank, IMF and western 21st neo-colonialism. Will the dismantling of the Gadaffi regime benefit the poor people in Libya or will this open a new chapter in the continual suffering for the people. Many analysts have said that the presence of the IMF and World Bank is a terrible signal for the Libyan poor people because these two lending institutions have conditions that don’t fit well with the poor. These two institutions have conditions that make forces nations to get into the 21st century economic slavery where the poor nations are at the mercy of the rich ones.

NOT ALL MALAWIANS JOYFUL AT DEATH EVEN OF GADAFFI

By: Qeko

The Nyasatimes report that Malawians are joyful at the capture and death of Gaddafi is far from the truth and this does not represent the voice of all Malawians. May be the heading of the article could have read, " Some Malawians" and not just " Malawians" because not all Malawians are sharing this notion about the death of Gaddafi mainly looking into the politics that had led to his demise. Also to say that Malawians are rejoicing is crude because we are a people who dont rejoice at death. Death is not something that someone can just talk about it like that as if its a game. We all know and have lost our relatives and we know how heartbroken this can be. It doesnt matter whether someone was a killer or evil but when they die, that situation is a different story because you are talking of a situation where someone is death and we will not see him/her again in this life.

In as much as the nyasatimes reported that many Malawians rejoiced at this death, some of us plus many millions out there are not rejoicing at all because it is in our nature not to rejoice when someone has been killed. We find it hard to celebrate upon hearing that someone has been killed. This article is showing a monstor image of us Malawian tothe world and that is why some of us and the many millions out there are strongly distancing ourselves from this story. As Malawians, we find this article story not potraying a good image because what it says there is not what we do when we hear that someone has died or has been killed. We dont and yes we dont because we value life as an asset freely given by God.

We may not be conversant with the Libyan political situation but some of us knows that: THE FORMULA YOU USE TO GAIN POWER IS THE SAME ONE THAT IS USED TO GET POWER OUT OF YOU. The NTC has used the power of the gun and it is the same gun that shall be used to get them out of power and that is the principle and that is what we should expect whether we like it or not. The Libyan people will neveer see peace again but that the nation shall be unstable for the many decades to come. Like all of us, Gaddafi had his mistakes and weaknesses as has been allegedly said globally but to decide to kill is far way too much.

Now the bible says for we all have sinned and fallen short of the Glory of God meaning that there is no human being who is an angel waking on this planet. This also means that in as much as some few are celebrating they need to know that just as Gaddafi may have committed the so called crime against humanity, this does not mean that he is the only "big sinner". We all are sinners who shall one day face the judgemen to God.

So for those few Malawians allegedly rejoicing, partying or celebrating that Gaddafi has been killed, you need to know one thing that you shall understand and know what death is all about when it visits your homes and may be that day you will know that it is not cool or good to rejoice when someone had died or been killed. We dont rejoice at Death but we mourn!!

THE MMD'S POLITICAL CARELESSNESS IN ZAMBIA’S 2011 GENERAL ELECTION

By: Qeko
The news that the ruling MMD has lost the Presidential election to an opposition candidate, Michael King Cobra Sata, shows the highest level of political carelessness of the incumbent and ruling party in the history of African politics. Why should ruling MMD allow themselves to be defeated by an opposition party like that? What is it that as a ruling party they were supposed to do in Zambia’s political economy but couldn’t do?

We have bee wondering as to why a ruling party with everything at its disposal can fail to win an election which it organizes and finance. Do political parties conduct elections that they loose? Why should an incumbent President loose an election and be given matching orders to vacate State House by an opposition candidate? Why should the ruling party fail to win an election when they have everything at their disposal to do the right thing and win the political support from the people?

It is a political scandal and carelessness of the highest order for the ruling party with everything at its disposal to be defeated by the opposition party. This is unacceptable and the MMD has just proved how careless they were as a party to fail to win the election when they were the ruling party and the very government of Zambia. For a ruling party to fail to win the election
The main argument here is that ruling parties have all it takes to rule until Jesus Christ come back again. There is no logic whatsoever for the ruling party to loose an election when they are at the center of the ball game. Why should you loose an election that you yourself organizes and finance? Do you organize an election to loose?

This is because in politics the major thing is to give the people what they want and be good to them. It seems the MMD in Zambia did opposite of what they were suppose to do, to give the Zambia people what they were crying for. The party had everything to make sure that their people are given good life. Infact as a ruling party, the MMD had everything at their disposal to create more jobs for the majority unemployed Zambias.

Zambian people have been crying for jobs and an improved life standards through the revamping of their economy something which only the ruling party had the power to do. The major thing and setback was that the MMD leadership concentrated on feeding their stomachs and had little time to think about the ordinary Zambia suffering in the streets of Lusaka and the rural outskirt.

Now a man called Sata who now stays in the country’s state house saw the weakness of the ruling MMD and capitalized on this and score the goal and defeated Banda. What Sata did was just to campaign from a different angle and this was people based campaign where the needs of the people are met. Sata promised the poor and unemployed jobs and an improvement in the living standard in Zambia. This is exactly what they people looked for. The poor and the hungry don’t care the ideology or philosophy you use to win them for as long as their needs are promised to be met.

Now what lessons do we get from the MMD vacating states house and handing power to Sata? The first lesson is that ruling parties in Africa need to do everything under their power to create jobs for the majority of young people who are jobless. This means that nations need to create a good political and economic environment that would enhance economic growth leading to more job creation for the poor. If not job creation then governments in Africa need to come up with programs of action that would empower the jobless young men so that they can begin to venture into some form of economic activities for their survival. In Zambia, these jobless young people are the ones who punished Rupia Banda and his MMD party that they vacated state house and leave it for Sata.

However Sata should not think that he is in that state house forever because the same people is not satisfied, will sack him out and give the presidency to somebody else.

UDF-MCP POLITICAL MADNESS

By: Qeko
The news that the UDF and MCP have fired the young Muluzi and Chris Daza continue to raise some questions regarding the political madness that has invaded these two parties in Malawi's political economy. While everybody knows that in politics there is a need for a good political transition, the UDF and MCP have decided to fire these two just because they openly declared that they were contesting the coming presidential elections. The crime these two have committed is to openly declare their ambitions to contest the 2014 elections.

However in a twist of events in the UDF, the parties governors seem to be supporting the young Muluzi in his bid to contest the elections and we are yet to see what the UDF gurus shall do after this. However the UDF gurus need to realise that amongst them there is nobody who is a presidential material and all of them are political failures and they have nothing to contribute in the political transformation of the country. They need to realise that they had their time and that their season is over and they need to give space to the upcoming young people to rule the party.The firing of Muluzi has made the UDF internal politiking interesting because there is; The UDF-Nga Ntafu and the UDF Chilumpha.

For the MCP, the major issue sorounds the definiton of the word"people" as they said that it was the people across the country who cried out that Daza be sacked from his position as the party's General secretary. The question for everybody has been that what is it that governs the MCP? Is the party governs by what their covention decided? Now if the convention where all of them are elected is bypassed and have only a handful of the leaders sack Daza then this becomes worrisome for the party that Orton Chirwa formed in 1959. MCP need to realise that JOhn Tembo is not of this generation and that he need to retire from politics with humility. The question is what will he do after he fail to make it 2014? After all Malawians knows very well that he had been in politics before almost half of the population was born and this doesnt sound nice. Why should somebody be in politics since 1961? Does it means that the MCP is a hopeless party and that Tembo is the only human being available for the top post? Sadly does it means that in that constituency in Dedza there are no people who can do better than Tembo?

Having said this, we need to note the following: Firstly is that its about time that this babish politics in the UDF and MCP should come to an end and that people should begin to demonstrate political maturity mainly this time around. Secondly is that the UDF and MCP should know that their house is divided, messed up and they have no chance of winning the 2014 elections. What we are saying is that they have a very political position on where they are operating from which makes them not win the election. They need a huge miracle if they have to be a good contender in the 2014 General Elections.

UDF and MCP policking is interesting though with no hope for the 2014 elections.

DMJ COACH BURNS INTO FLAMES

By: Qeko
It was at first a small smoke from behind the back of the DMJ coach then a big noise then a a big blast like of a bomb, tearing the DMJ bus apart into flames. This is what has just happened today at round about 7am when the DMJ Coach travelling from Johannesburg to East London Via Queenstown and Alice burnt into flames in an area between Queenstown and Fort Bofort. DMJ Coach are some of the most reliable buses that uses small root passing through KingsWilliams Town, Alice, Fort Bofort, Queenstown on the way to Johannesburg.

This bus particularily was travelling from Johannesburg to East London and it left Johannesburg yesterday at around 7pm. Everybody in the bus is safe however due to the heavey explosion as the flames were tearing the bus down, hindered passengers from rescuing some of the laggueges the people had.

The one most interesting thing however has been in as much as many phone calls were made the relevant authorities around Fort bofort and Queenstown, no police or firemen came to rescue the burning bus leaving many passengers crying for their bags and good iterms they bought from Jahannesburg.
