This is one of Kamuzu’s best, a beautiful slogan for sure but with my little brains I’ve never understood its significance and merit, actually I’ve just never understood what his leadership was all made of looking from the roof window .Sometimes sweet, bitter, sour-sweet, hot then cold-warm ...... And if anybody can tell me how to describe him a libertarian socialist, revolutionary, liberator or egalitarian , I mean I haven’t a foggiest idea what could fit him best. A massive intelligentsia ? It seems to mean something about his complexity ,or alternative positions of leadership style, or change, or something. I don’t know.


Maybe, I think as soon as I set up the idea of discussing Kamuzu ,I must have already abandoned rationality. I believe the question of a rational discussion ought to ask is, what is there in Kamuzu’s work that’s worth saving and modifying , and what is there that ought to be completely discarded. I mean , I don’t believe a word of it - but the point is , the justification for any kind of power system has to be argued and proven to people before it has any claim to legitimacy.


He had an abstract model of authoritarian leadership which somehow I find it attractive the way how he valued it to the popular mass. He must have been probably one of those rare bred intellectuals and the rest is just historical accident.

Everything should be saved as it is. History should be unbiased. How we look at Kamuzu is subjective. As a leader some have love and some have hate. Its just the way it is.
