Next Malawi President - "110% up north is 4 Bingu"

I circulated the previous posting to others within Malawi's Civil Society and received the following response:
Dear Abbas,

Thank u 4 e-mail of yesterday, in my view, Bingu is still poised to win this election because of what he has achieved for malawians.Here in kasungu , of all places, many young poeple , male or female have developed very big LIKING for Bingu becaise of the improved securiry, food supplies, Education- no closures of the University etc. A day ago I was up north, man, you should have been there. 110% up north is 4 Bingu.What makes the opposition undesirable in the minds of many young people are the opposition leaders own untractable SELF DECAMPAIGNING words. Young Malawians of today are intellectualls. They know who is lying, back tracking,self contradicting, ambiguos, montonous, and they are busy telling the same to their village folks.Go to Madisi and hear for yourself the views of an ordinally market vendor, why they think Bingu is the man because he has delivered and will therefore deliver again! Abbas, in Chichewa there is a saying which says": FISI AKALILA SABWEZA !". In English this literally means: "once a fool always a fool".Malawians are not babies who can be made to quickly forget somebodys sins of yesterday.Lesoons for the opposition in this regard abound! Thank u 4 sharing your views with me, Abbas.GOD BLESS U ! LET US UNITE IN PRAYER FOR A LEADER WHO LOVES US AND NOT HIMSELF! WHO IS DEVELOMENT CENTRERED, AND NOT HATRED OR VENGEANCE MOTIVATED !
